# Description
Fixes: #13460
The issue is caused by `try_exists` method on path, it will return
`Err(NotADirectory)` if user tried to check for a path under a regular
file.
To fix it, I think it's ok to use `exists` rather than `try_exists`,
although
[Path::exists()](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/path/struct.Path.html#method.exists)
only checks whether or not a path was both found and readable. I think
it's ok, and we can add this information under `extra_description`.
# User-Facing Changes
The following code will no longer raise error:
```
touch a; 'a/b' | path exists
```
# Tests + Formatting
Added 1 test.
# Description
Judiciously try to avoid allocations/clone by changing the signature of
functions
- **Don't pass str by value unnecessarily if only read**
- **Don't require a vec in `Sandbox::with_files`**
- **Remove unnecessary string clone**
- **Fixup unnecessary borrow**
- **Use `&str` in shape color instead**
- **Vec -> Slice**
- **Elide string clone**
- **Elide `Path` clone**
- **Take &str to elide clone in tests**
# User-Facing Changes
None
# Tests + Formatting
This touches many tests purely in changing from owned to borrowed/static
data
# Description
Currently `path exists` checks the file/folder's existence by traversing
symlinks. I've added a `-n` switch/flag that disables symlink
traversing, similar to what `path expand -n` does.
## The Long Story (for those interested)
Hello! 👋 While working on one of my scripts, I discovered that the `path
exists` command was traversing symlinks. This meant that even if the
file existed, it would fail if the pointed location didn't exist. To
address this, I've introduced a new `-n` flag, which I borrowed from the
`path expand` command. This addition should make the behavior more
consistent within the *path commands universe*.
## But, is it any useful?
```nushell
let compat = /run/media/userX/DriveX/steam/steamapps/compatdata
if "symlink" == ($compat | path expand -n | path type) {}
# to this
if ($compat | path exists -n) {}
```
# User-Facing Changes
Users, will not efect. Unless they use the mentioned `-n` flag/switch.
# Description
The working directory doesn't have to be set for those tests (or would
be the default anyways). When appropriate also remove calls to the
`pipeline()` function. In most places kept the diff minimal and only
removed the superfluous part to not pollute the blame view. With simpler
tests also simplified things to make them more readable overall (this
included removal of the raw string literal).
Work for #8670
* move commands, futures.rs, script.rs, utils
* move over maybe_print_errors
* add nu_command crate references to nu_cli
* in commands.rs open up to pub mod from pub(crate)
* nu-cli, nu-command, and nu tests are now passing
* cargo fmt
* clean up nu-cli/src/prelude.rs
* code cleanup
* for some reason lex.rs was not formatted, may be causing my error
* remove mod completion from lib.rs which was not being used along with quickcheck macros
* add in allow unused imports
* comment out one failing external test; comment out one failing internal test
* revert commenting out failing tests; something else might be going on; someone with a windows machine should check and see what is going on with these failing windows tests
* Update Cargo.toml
Extend the optional features to nu-command
