# Description
The meaning of the word usage is specific to describing how a command
function is *used* and not a synonym for general description. Usage can
be used to describe the SYNOPSIS or EXAMPLES sections of a man page
where the permitted argument combinations are shown or example *uses*
are given.
Let's not confuse people and call it what it is a description.
Our `help` command already creates its own *Usage* section based on the
available arguments and doesn't refer to the description with usage.
# User-Facing Changes
`help commands` and `scope commands` will now use `description` or
`extra_description`
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`
Breaking change in the plugin protocol:
In the signature record communicated with the engine.
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`
The same rename also takes place for the methods on
`SimplePluginCommand` and `PluginCommand`

# Description
The previous behaviour of `into record` on lists was to create a new
record with each list index as the key. This was not very useful for
creating meaningful records, though, and most people would end up using
commands like `headers` or `transpose` to turn a list of keys and values
into a record.
This PR changes that instead to do what I think the most ergonomic thing
is, and instead:
- A list of records is merged into one record.
- A list of pairs (two element lists) is folded into a record with the
first element of each pair being the key, and the second being the
value.
The former is just generally more useful than having to use `reduce`
with `merge` for such a common operation, and the latter is useful
because it means that `$a | zip $b | into record` *just works* in the
way that seems most obvious.
Example:
```nushell
[[foo bar] [baz quux]] | into record # => {foo: bar, baz: quux}
[{foo: bar} {baz: quux}] | into record # => {foo: bar, baz: quux}
[foo baz] | zip [bar quux] | into record # => {foo: bar, baz: quux}
```
The support for range input has been removed, as it would no longer
reflect the treatment of an equivalent list.
The following is equivalent to the old behavior, in case that's desired:
```
0.. | zip [a b c] | into record # => {0: a, 1: b, 2: c}
```
# User-Facing Changes
- `into record` changed as described above (breaking)

Previously when nushell failed to parse the content type header, it

@sholderbach pointed out that I could've made this error message better.

This should work. I had a hard time figuring out how to trigger the

begin with.

# Description
This PR is meant to provide a more helpful error message when using http
get and the content type can't be parsed.
### Before
### After
The span isn't perfect but there's no way to get the span of the content
type that I can see.
In the middle of fixing this error, I also discovered how to fix the
problem in general. Since you can now see the error message complaining
about double quotes (char 22 at position 0. 22 hex is `"`). The fix is
just to remove all the double quotes from the content_type and then you
get this.
### After After
The discussion on Discord about this is that `--raw` or
`--ignore-errors` should eat this error and it "just work" as well as
default to text or binary when the mime parsing fails. I agree but this
PR does not implement that.

# Description
Fixes Issue #13477
This adds a check to see if a user is trying to invoke a
(non-executable) file as a command and returns a helpful error if so.
EDIT: this will not work on Windows, and is arguably not relevant there,
because of the different semantics of executables. I think the
equivalent on Windows would be if a user tries to invoke `./foo`, we
should look for `foo.exe` or `foo.bat` in the directory and recommend
that if it exists.
# User-Facing Changes
When a user invokes an unrecognized command that is the path to an
existing file, the error used to say:
`{name} is neither a Nushell built-in or a known external command`
This PR proposes to change the message to:
`{name} refers to a file that is not executable. Did you forget to to
set execute permissions?`
# Tests + Formatting
Ran cargo fmt, clippy and test on the workspace.
EDIT: added test asserting the new behavior
# Description
Something I meant to add a long time ago. We currently don't have a
convenient way to print raw binary data intentionally. You can pipe it
through `cat` to turn it into an unknown stream, or write it to a file
and read it again, but we can't really just e.g. generate msgpack and
write it to stdout without this. For example:
```nushell
[abc def] | to msgpack | print --raw
```
This is useful for nushell scripts that will be piped into something
else. It also means that `nu_plugin_nu_example` probably doesn't need to
do this anymore, but I haven't adjusted it yet:
```nushell
def tell_nushell_encoding [] {
print -n "\u{0004}json"
}
```
This happens to work because 0x04 is a valid UTF-8 character, but it
wouldn't be possible if it were something above 0x80.
`--raw` also formats other things without `table`, I figured the two
things kind of go together. The output is kind of like `to text`.
Debatable whether that should share the same flag, but it was easier
that way and seemed reasonable.

with the content type set appropriately when using `--raw`.
# Description
When using a format string, `into datetime` would disallow an `int` even
when it logically made sense. This was mainly a problem when attempting
to convert a Unix epoch to Nushell `datetime`. Unix epochs are often
stored or returned as `int` in external data sources.
```nu
1722821463 | into datetime -f '%s'
Error: nu:🐚:only_supports_this_input_type
× Input type not supported.
╭─[entry #3:1:1]
1 │ 1722821463 | into datetime -f '%s'
· ─────┬──── ──────┬──────
· │ ╰── only string input data is supported
· ╰── input type: int
╰────
```
While the solution was simply to `| to text` the `int`, this PR handles
the use-case automatically.
Essentially a ~5 line change that just moves the current parsing to a
closure that is called for both Strings and Ints-converted-to-Strings.

Minor nitpicks, but the `random int` help and examples were a bit
ambiguous in several aspects. Updated to clarify that:
* An unconstrained `random int` returns a non-negative integer. That is,
the smallest potential value is 0. Technically integers include negative
numbers as well, and `random int` will never return one unless you pass
it a range with a negative lower-bound.
* To that end, changed the final example to demonstrate a negative
lower-bound.
* The range is inclusive. While most people would probably assume this,
the changes make this explicit in the examples and argument description.

# Description
This makes assignment operations and `const` behave the same way `let`
and `mut` do, absorbing the rest of the pipeline.
Changes the lexer to be able to recognize assignment operators as a
separate token, and then makes the lite parser continue to push spans
into the same command regardless of any redirections or pipes if an
assignment operator is encountered. Because the pipeline is no longer
split up by the lite parser at this point, it's trivial to just parse
the right hand side as if it were a subexpression not contained within
parentheses.
# User-Facing Changes
Big breaking change. These are all now possible:
```nushell
const path = 'a' | path join 'b'
mut x = 2
$x = random int
$x = [1 2 3] | math sum
$env.FOO = random chars
```
In the past, these would have led to (an attempt at) bare word string
parsing. So while `$env.FOO = bar` would have previously set the
environment variable `FOO` to the string `"bar"`, it now tries to run
the command named `bar`, hence the major breaking change.
However, this is desirable because it is very consistent - if you see
the `=`, you can just assume it absorbs everything else to the right of
it.
# Tests + Formatting
Added tests for the new behaviour. Adjusted some existing tests that
depended on the right hand side of assignments being parsed as
barewords.

# Description
The current version of `stor` forces stripping ansi code coloring from
all the strings.
In this PR, I propose to keep strings unchanged.
The logic behind the proposed changes was best described in the
[discord](https://discord.com/channels/601130461678272522/601130461678272524/1266387441074442272):
<img width="773" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/063cdebd-684f-46f1-aca1-faeb4827723d">
with proposed changes we can store colored output:
```
stor reset; stor create --table-name test --columns {a: str};
ls | table | {a: $in} | stor insert --table-name test | null;
stor open | query db 'select a from test' | get a.0
```
<img width="704" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8f062808-18fc-498b-a77e-a118f6b9953a">
# User-Facing Changes
If one was using `stor` together with ansi colored input, and then was
querying `stor` with search operations, they might break. But I don't
think that it is a big problem, as one will just need to use `ansi
reset` before storing data.

Tests are okay.

- Should not be a breaking change.
- Allows cleaner patterns like `... | reduce {|it| merge $it}`
# Tests + Formatting
<!--
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used` to
check that you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass (on Windows make
sure to [enable developer
mode](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging))
- `cargo run -- -c "use toolkit.nu; toolkit test stdlib"` to run the
tests for the standard library
> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr
> ```

`cargo test --package nu-cli --test main -- commands::reduce` and
`toolkit test stdlib` report no issues
# Description
Setting metadata on a byte stream converts it to a list stream. This PR
makes it so that `metadata set` does not alter its input besides the
metadata.
```nushell
open --raw test.json
| metadata set --content-type application/json
| http post https://httpbin.org/post
```
# Description
Adds a `--quiet` flag to the `watch` command, silencing the message
usually shown when invoking `watch`.
Resolves#13411
As implemented, `--quiet` is orthogonal to `--verbose`. I'm open to
improving the flag's name, behaviour and/or documentation to make it
more user-friendly, as I realise this may be surprising as-is.
```
> watch path {|a b c| echo $a $b $c}
Now watching files at "/home/user/path". Press ctrl+c to abort.

# User-Facing Changes
Adds `--quiet`/`-q` flag to `watch`, which removes the initial status
message.
This tiny PR improves the documentation of the `reduce` command by
explicitly stating the direction of reduction, i.e. from left to right,
and adds an example for demonstration.

# User-Facing Changes
It's a breaking change because we have switched the position of
`<initial>` and `<closure>`, after the change, initial value will be
optional. So it's possible to do something like this:
```nushell
> let f = {|fib = [0, 1]| {out: $fib.0, next: [$fib.1, ($fib.0 + $fib.1)]} }
> generate $f | first 5
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ 0 │
│ 1 │ 1 │
│ 2 │ 1 │
│ 3 │ 2 │
│ 4 │ 3 │
╰───┴───╯
```
It will also raise error if user don't give initial value, and the
closure don't have default parameter.
```nushell
❯ let f = {|fib| {out: $fib.0, next: [$fib.1, ($fib.0 + $fib.1)]} }
❯ generate $f
Error: × The initial value is missing
╭─[entry #5:1:1]
1 │ generate $f
· ────┬───
· ╰── Missing intial value
╰────
help: Provide <initial> value in generate, or assigning default value to closure parameter
```
# Tests + Formatting
Added some test cases.
