# Description
The PR overhauls how IO redirection is handled, allowing more explicit
and fine-grain control over `stdout` and `stderr` output as well as more
efficient IO and piping.
To summarize the changes in this PR:
- Added a new `IoStream` type to indicate the intended destination for a
pipeline element's `stdout` and `stderr`.
- The `stdout` and `stderr` `IoStream`s are stored in the `Stack` and to
avoid adding 6 additional arguments to every eval function and
`Command::run`. The `stdout` and `stderr` streams can be temporarily
overwritten through functions on `Stack` and these functions will return
a guard that restores the original `stdout` and `stderr` when dropped.
- In the AST, redirections are now directly part of a `PipelineElement`
as a `Option<Redirection>` field instead of having multiple different
`PipelineElement` enum variants for each kind of redirection. This
required changes to the parser, mainly in `lite_parser.rs`.
- `Command`s can also set a `IoStream` override/redirection which will
apply to the previous command in the pipeline. This is used, for
example, in `ignore` to allow the previous external command to have its
stdout redirected to `Stdio::null()` at spawn time. In contrast, the
current implementation has to create an os pipe and manually consume the
output on nushell's side. File and pipe redirections (`o>`, `e>`, `e>|`,
etc.) have precedence over overrides from commands.
This PR improves piping and IO speed, partially addressing #10763. Using
the `throughput` command from that issue, this PR gives the following
speedup on my setup for the commands below:
| Command | Before (MB/s) | After (MB/s) | Bash (MB/s) |
| --------------------------- | -------------:| ------------:|
-----------:|
| `throughput o> /dev/null` | 1169 | 52938 | 54305 |
| `throughput \| ignore` | 840 | 55438 | N/A |
| `throughput \| null` | Error | 53617 | N/A |
| `throughput \| rg 'x'` | 1165 | 3049 | 3736 |
| `(throughput) \| rg 'x'` | 810 | 3085 | 3815 |
(Numbers above are the median samples for throughput)
This PR also paves the way to refactor our `ExternalStream` handling in
the various commands. For example, this PR already fixes the following
code:
```nushell
^sh -c 'echo -n "hello "; sleep 0; echo "world"' | find "hello world"
```
This returns an empty list on 0.90.1 and returns a highlighted "hello
world" on this PR.
Since the `stdout` and `stderr` `IoStream`s are available to commands
when they are run, then this unlocks the potential for more convenient
behavior. E.g., the `find` command can disable its ansi highlighting if
it detects that the output `IoStream` is not the terminal. Knowing the
output streams will also allow background job output to be redirected
more easily and efficiently.
# User-Facing Changes
- External commands returned from closures will be collected (in most
cases):
```nushell
1..2 | each {|_| nu -c "print a" }
```
This gives `["a", "a"]` on this PR, whereas this used to print "a\na\n"
and then return an empty list.
```nushell
1..2 | each {|_| nu -c "print -e a" }
```
This gives `["", ""]` and prints "a\na\n" to stderr, whereas this used
to return an empty list and print "a\na\n" to stderr.
- Trailing new lines are always trimmed for external commands when
piping into internal commands or collecting it as a value. (Failure to
decode the output as utf-8 will keep the trailing newline for the last
binary value.) In the current nushell version, the following three code
snippets differ only in parenthesis placement, but they all also have
different outputs:
1. `1..2 | each { ^echo a }`
```
a
a
╭────────────╮
│ empty list │
╰────────────╯
```
2. `1..2 | each { (^echo a) }`
```
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ a │
│ 1 │ a │
╰───┴───╯
```
3. `1..2 | (each { ^echo a })`
```
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ a │
│ │ │
│ 1 │ a │
│ │ │
╰───┴───╯
```
But in this PR, the above snippets will all have the same output:
```
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ a │
│ 1 │ a │
╰───┴───╯
```
- All existing flags on `run-external` are now deprecated.
- File redirections now apply to all commands inside a code block:
```nushell
(nu -c "print -e a"; nu -c "print -e b") e> test.out
```
This gives "a\nb\n" in `test.out` and prints nothing. The same result
would happen when printing to stdout and using a `o>` file redirection.
- External command output will (almost) never be ignored, and ignoring
output must be explicit now:
```nushell
(^echo a; ^echo b)
```
This prints "a\nb\n", whereas this used to print only "b\n". This only
applies to external commands; values and internal commands not in return
position will not print anything (e.g., `(echo a; echo b)` still only
prints "b").
- `complete` now always captures stderr (`do` is not necessary).
# After Submitting
The language guide and other documentation will need to be updated.
# Description
Fixes some ignored clippy lints.
# User-Facing Changes
Changes some signatures and return types to `&dyn Command` instead of
`&Box<dyn Command`, but I believe this is only an internal change.
This is partially "feng-shui programming" of moving things to new
separate places.
The later commits include "`git blame` tollbooths" by moving out chunks
of code into new files, which requires an extra step to track things
with `git blame`. We can negiotiate if you want to keep particular
things in their original place.
If egregious I tried to add a bit of documentation. If I see something
that is unused/unnecessarily `pub` I will try to remove that.
- Move `nu_protocol::Exportable` to `nu-parser`
- Guess doccomment for `Exportable`
- Move `Unit` enum from `value` to `AST`
- Move engine state `Variable` def into its folder
- Move error-related files in `nu-protocol` subdir
- Move `pipeline_data` module into its own folder
- Move `stream.rs` over into the `pipeline_data` mod
- Move `PipelineMetadata` into its own file
- Doccomment `PipelineMetadata`
- Remove unused `is_leap_year` in `value/mod`
- Note about criminal `type_compatible` helper
- Move duration fmting into new `value/duration.rs`
- Move filesize fmting logic to new `value/filesize`
- Split reexports from standard imports in `value/mod`
- Doccomment trait `CustomValue`
- Polish doccomments and intradoc links
# Description
This PR uses the new plugin protocol to intelligently keep plugin
processes running in the background for further plugin calls.
Running plugins can be seen by running the new `plugin list` command,
and stopped by running the new `plugin stop` command.
This is an enhancement for the performance of plugins, as starting new
plugin processes has overhead, especially for plugins in languages that
take a significant amount of time on startup. It also enables plugins
that have persistent state between commands, making the migration of
features like dataframes and `stor` to plugins possible.
Plugins are automatically stopped by the new plugin garbage collector,
configurable with `$env.config.plugin_gc`:
```nushell
$env.config.plugin_gc = {
# Configuration for plugin garbage collection
default: {
enabled: true # true to enable stopping of inactive plugins
stop_after: 10sec # how long to wait after a plugin is inactive to stop it
}
plugins: {
# alternate configuration for specific plugins, by name, for example:
#
# gstat: {
# enabled: false
# }
}
}
```
If garbage collection is enabled, plugins will be stopped after
`stop_after` passes after they were last active. Plugins are counted as
inactive if they have no running plugin calls. Reading the stream from
the response of a plugin call is still considered to be activity, but if
a plugin holds on to a stream but the call ends without an active
streaming response, it is not counted as active even if it is reading
it. Plugins can explicitly disable the GC as appropriate with
`engine.set_gc_disabled(true)`.
The `version` command now lists plugin names rather than plugin
commands. The list of plugin commands is accessible via `plugin list`.
Recommend doing this together with #12029, because it will likely force
plugin developers to do the right thing with mutability and lead to less
unexpected behavior when running plugins nested / in parallel.
# User-Facing Changes
- new command: `plugin list`
- new command: `plugin stop`
- changed command: `version` (now lists plugin names, rather than
commands)
- new config: `$env.config.plugin_gc`
- Plugins will keep running and be reused, at least for the configured
GC period
- Plugins that used mutable state in weird ways like `inc` did might
misbehave until fixed
- Plugins can disable GC if they need to
- Had to change plugin signature to accept `&EngineInterface` so that
the GC disable feature works. #12029 does this anyway, and I'm expecting
(resolvable) conflicts with that
# Tests + Formatting
- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- 🟢 `toolkit test`
- 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`
Because there is some specific OS behavior required for plugins to not
respond to Ctrl-C directly, I've developed against and tested on both
Linux and Windows to ensure that works properly.
# After Submitting
I think this probably needs to be in the book somewhere
# Description
This PR introduces [workspaces
dependencies](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/workspaces.html#the-dependencies-table).
The advantages are:
- a single place where dependency versions are declared
- reduces the number of files to change when upgrading a dependency
- reduces the risk of accidentally depending on 2 different versions of
the same dependency
I've only done a few so far. If this PR is accepted, I might continue
and progressively do the rest.

# Description
As title, currently on latest main, nushell confused user if it allows
implicit casting between glob and string:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g }
glob-test $x
```
It always expand the glob although `$x` is defined as a string.
This pr implements a solution from @kubouch :
> We could make it really strict and disallow all autocasting between
globs and strings because that's what's causing the "magic" confusion.
Then, modify all builtins that accept globs to accept oneof(glob,
string) and the rules would be that globs always expand and strings
never expand
# User-Facing Changes
After this pr, user needs to use `into glob` to invoke `glob-test`, if
user pass a string variable:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g }
glob-test ($x | into glob)
```
Or else nushell will return an error.
```

# Description
This is a follow up to
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11621#issuecomment-1937484322
Also Fixes: #11838
## About the code change
It applys the same logic when we pass variables to external commands:
0487e9ffcb/crates/nu-command/src/system/run_external.rs (L162-L170)
That is: if user input dynamic things(like variables, sub-expression, or
string interpolation), it returns a quoted `NuPath`, then user input
won't be globbed
# User-Facing Changes
Given two input files: `a*c.txt`, `abc.txt`
* `let f = "a*c.txt"; rm $f` will remove one file: `a*c.txt`.
~* `let f = "a*c.txt"; rm --glob $f` will remove `a*c.txt` and
`abc.txt`~
* `let f: glob = "a*c.txt"; rm $f` will remove `a*c.txt` and `abc.txt`
## Rules about globbing with *variable*
Given two files: `a*c.txt`, `abc.txt`
| Cmd Type | example | Result |
| ----- | ------------------ | ------ |
| builtin | let f = "a*c.txt"; rm $f | remove `a*c.txt` |
| builtin | let f: glob = "a*c.txt"; rm $f | remove `a*c.txt` and
`abc.txt`
| builtin | let f = "a*c.txt"; rm ($f \| into glob) | remove `a*c.txt`
and `abc.txt`
| custom | def crm [f: glob] { rm $f }; let f = "a*c.txt"; crm $f |
remove `a*c.txt` and `abc.txt`
| custom | def crm [f: glob] { rm ($f \| into string) }; let f =
"a*c.txt"; crm $f | remove `a*c.txt`
| custom | def crm [f: string] { rm $f }; let f = "a*c.txt"; crm $f |
remove `a*c.txt`
| custom | def crm [f: string] { rm $f }; let f = "a*c.txt"; crm ($f \|
into glob) | remove `a*c.txt` and `abc.txt`
In general, if a variable is annotated with `glob` type, nushell will
expand glob pattern. Or else, we need to use `into | glob` to expand
glob pattern
# Tests + Formatting

# After Submitting
I think `str glob-escape` command will be no-longer required. We can
remove it.
# Description
Both `Block` and `Pipeline` had `Index`/`IndexMut` implementations to
access their elements, that are currently unused.
Explicit helpers or iteration would generally be preferred anyways but
in the current state the inner containers are `pub` and are liberally
used. (Sometimes with potentially panicking indexing or also iteration)
As it is potentially unclear what the meaning of the element from a
block or pipeline queried by a usize is, let's remove it entirely until
we come up with a better API.
# User-Facing Changes

Plugin authors shouldn't dig into AST internals
# Description
This PR renames the conversion functions on `Value` to be more consistent.
It follows the Rust [API guidelines](https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/naming.html#ad-hoc-conversions-follow-as_-to_-into_-conventions-c-conv) for ad-hoc conversions.
The conversion functions on `Value` now come in a few forms:
- `coerce_{type}` takes a `&Value` and attempts to convert the value to
`type` (e.g., `i64` are converted to `f64`). This is the old behavior of
some of the `as_{type}` functions -- these functions have simply been
renamed to better reflect what they do.
- The new `as_{type}` functions take a `&Value` and returns an `Ok`
result only if the value is of `type` (no conversion is attempted). The
returned value will be borrowed if `type` is non-`Copy`, otherwise an
owned value is returned.
- `into_{type}` exists for non-`Copy` types, but otherwise does not
attempt conversion just like `as_type`. It takes an owned `Value` and
always returns an owned result.
- `coerce_into_{type}` has the same relationship with `coerce_{type}` as
`into_{type}` does with `as_{type}`.
- `to_{kind}_string`: conversion to different string formats (debug,
abbreviated, etc.). Only two of the old string conversion functions were
removed, the rest have been renamed only.
- `to_{type}`: other conversion functions. Currently, only `to_path`
exists. (And `to_string` through `Display`.)
This table summaries the above:
| Form | Cost | Input Ownership | Output Ownership | Converts `Value`
case/`type` |
| ---------------------------- | ----- | --------------- |
---------------- | -------- |
| `as_{type}` | Cheap | Borrowed | Borrowed/Owned | No |
| `into_{type}` | Cheap | Owned | Owned | No |
| `coerce_{type}` | Cheap | Borrowed | Borrowed/Owned | Yes |
| `coerce_into_{type}` | Cheap | Owned | Owned | Yes |
| `to_{kind}_string` | Expensive | Borrowed | Owned | Yes |
| `to_{type}` | Expensive | Borrowed | Owned | Yes |
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking API change for `Value` in `nu-protocol` which is exposed as
part of the plugin API.
# Description
Close: #9673Close: #8277Close: #10944
This pr introduces the following syntax:
1. `e>|`, pipe stderr to next command. Example: `$env.FOO=bar nu
--testbin echo_env_stderr FOO e>| str length`
2. `o+e>|` and `e+o>|`, pipe both stdout and stderr to next command,
example: `$env.FOO=bar nu --testbin echo_env_mixed out-err FOO FOO e+o>|
str length`
Note: it only works for external commands. ~There is no different for
internal commands, that is, the following three commands do the same
things:~ Edit: it raises errors if we want to pipes for internal
commands
```
❯ ls e>| str length
Error: × `e>|` only works with external streams
╭─[entry #1:1:1]
1 │ ls e>| str length
· ─┬─
· ╰── `e>|` only works on external streams
╰────
❯ ls e+o>| str length
Error: × `o+e>|` only works with external streams
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ ls e+o>| str length
· ──┬──
· ╰── `o+e>|` only works on external streams
╰────
```
This can help us to avoid some strange issues like the following:
`$env.FOO=bar (nu --testbin echo_env_stderr FOO) e>| str length`
Which is hard to understand and hard to explain to users.

# Description
Previously, only direcly-recursive calls were checked for recursion
depth. But most recursive calls in nushell are mutually recursive since
expressions like `for`, `where`, `try` and `do` all execute a separte
block.
```nushell
def f [] {
do { f }
}
```
Calling `f` would crash nushell with a stack overflow.
I think the only general way to prevent such a stack overflow is to
enforce a maximum call stack depth instead of only disallowing directly
recursive calls.
This commit also moves that logic into `eval_call()` instead of
`eval_block()` because the recursion limit is tracked in the `Stack`,
but not all blocks are evaluated in a new stack. Incrementing the
recursion depth of the caller's stack would permanently increment that
for all future calls.
Fixes#11667
# User-Facing Changes
Any function call can now fail with `recursion_limit_reached` instead of
just directly recursive calls. Mutually-recursive calls no longer crash
nushell.

Nushell panics when the spread operator is used like this (the
`...$rest` shouldn't actually be parsed as a spread operator at all):
```nu
$ def foo [...rest: string] {...$rest}
$ foo bar baz
thread 'main' panicked at /root/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/nu-protocol-0.89.0/src/signature.rs:650:9:
Internal error: can't run a predeclaration without a body

note: Some details are omitted, run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=full` for a verbose backtrace.
```
The problem was that whenever the parser saw something like `{...$`,
`{...(`, or `{...[`, it would treat that as a record with a spread
expression, ignoring the syntax shape of the block it was parsing. This
should now be fixed, and the snippet above instead gives the following
error:
```nu
Error: nu:🐚:external_command

Stuff like `do { ...$rest }` will now try to run a command `...$rest`
rather than complaining that variable `$rest` doesn't exist.

# Description
This pr is a follow up to
[#11569](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11569#issuecomment-1902279587)
> Revert the logic in https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/10694 and
apply the logic in this pr to mv, cp, rv will require a larger change, I
need to think how to achieve the bahavior
And sorry @bobhy for reverting some of your changes.
This pr is going to unify glob behavior on the given commands:
* open
* rm
* cp-old
* mv
* umv
* cp
* du
So they have the same behavior to `ls`, which is:
If given parameter is quoted by single quote(`'`) or double quote(`"`),
don't auto-expand the glob pattern. If not quoted, auto-expand the glob
pattern.
Fixes: #9558Fixes: #10211Fixes: #9310Fixes: #10364
# TODO
But there is one thing remains: if we give a variable to the command, it
will always auto-expand the glob pattern, e.g:
```nushell
let path = "a[123]b"
rm $path
```
I don't think it's expected. But I also think user might want to
auto-expand the glob pattern in variables.
So I'll introduce a new command called `glob escape`, then if user
doesn't want to auto-expand the glob pattern, he can just do this: `rm
($path | glob escape)`

## NOTE
This pr changes the semantic of `GlobPattern`, before this pr, it will
`expand path` after evaluated, this makes `nu_engine::glob_from` have no
chance to glob things right if a path contains glob pattern.
e.g: [#9310
](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/9310#issuecomment-1886824030)
#10211
I think changing the semantic is fine, because it makes glob works if
path contains something like '*'.
It maybe a breaking change if a custom command's argument are annotated
by `: glob`.
# Description
This is a follow up to: #11365
After this pr, `--flag: bool` is no longer allowed.
I think `ParseWarning::Deprecated` is useful when we want to deprecated
something at syntax level, so I just leave it there for now.

This PR will allow string interpolation at parse time.
Since the actual config hasn't been loaded at parse time, this uses the
`get_config()` method on `StateWorkingSet`. So file sizes and datetimes
(I think those are the only things whose string representations depend
on the config) may be formatted differently from how users have
configured things, which may come as a surprise to some. It does seem
unlikely that anyone would be formatting file sizes or date times at
parse time. Still, something to think about if/before this PR merged.
Also, I changed the `ModuleNotFound` error to include the name of the
module.
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
Users will be able to do stuff like:
```nu
const x = [1 2 3]
const y = $"foo($x)" // foo[1, 2, 3]
```
The main use case is `use`-ing and `source`-ing files at parse time:
```nu
const file = "foo.nu"
use $"($file)"
```
If the module isn't found, you'll see an error like this:
```
Error: nu::parser::module_not_found
× Module not found.
╭─[entry #3:1:1]
1 │ use $"($file)"
· ─────┬────
· ╰── module foo.nu not found

help: module files and their paths must be available before your script is run as parsing occurs before anything is evaluated

Although there's user-facing changes, there's probably no need to change
the docs since people probably already expect string interpolation to
work at parse time.
Edit: @kubouch pointed out that we'd need to document the fact that
stuff like file sizes and datetimes won't get formatted according to
user's runtime configs, so I'll make a PR to nushell.github.io after
this one
# Description
Fixes: #11455
### For arguments which is annotated with `:path/:directory/:glob`
To fix the issue, we need to have a way to know if a path is originally
quoted during runtime. So the information needed to be added at several
levels:
* parse time (from user input to expression)
We need to add quoted information into `Expr::Filepath`,
`Expr::Directory`, `Expr::GlobPattern`
* eval time
When convert from `Expr::Filepath`, `Expr::Directory`,
`Expr::GlobPattern` to `Value::String` during runtime, we won't auto
expanded the path if it's quoted
### For `ls`
It's really special, because it accepts a `String` as a pattern, and it
generates `glob` expression inside the command itself.
So the idea behind the change is introducing a special SyntaxShape to
ls: `SyntaxShape::LsGlobPattern`. So we can track if the pattern is
originally quoted easier, and we don't auto expand the path either.
Then when constructing a glob pattern inside ls, we check if input
pattern is quoted, if so: we escape the input pattern, so we can run `ls
a[123]b`, because it's already escaped.
Finally, to accomplish the checking process, we also need to introduce a
new value type called `Value::QuotedString` to differ from
`Value::String`, it's used to generate an enum called `NuPath`, which is
finally used in `ls` function. `ls` learned from `NuPath` to know if
user input is quoted.
# User-Facing Changes
Actually it contains several changes

/home/windsoilder/a
/home/windsoilder/a
```
#### After
```nushell
> def foo [p: path] { echo $p }; print (foo "~/a"); print (foo '~/a')
~/a
~/a
> def foo [p: directory] { echo $p }; print (foo "~/a"); print (foo '~/a')
~/a
~/a
> def foo [p: glob] { echo $p }; print (foo "~/a"); print (foo '~/a')
~/a
~/a
```
### For ls command
`touch '[uwu]'`
#### Before
```
❯ ls -D "[uwu]"
Error: × No matches found for [uwu]
╭─[entry #6:1:1]

If there were brackets in a string argument of a script it was always
interpreted as interpolation before the change. That lead to unexpected
outputs of such scripts. After this change arguments which are not
intended as interpolation (not starting with $) and containing brackets
will have implicitly added backticks for correct interpretation in the
scripts. This fixes#10908.
To fix other issues mentioned in #11035 I changed the deparsing logic.
Initially we added backticks for multi word variables and double quote
if there was \ or " in the string. My change would add double quotes any
time string starts with $ or contains any of character that might break
parsing. The characters I identified are white space, (, ', `, ",and \.
It's possible other characters should be added to this list.
I tested this solution with few simple scripts using both stand alone
arguments and flags and it seems to work but I would appreciate if
someone with more experience checked it with some more unusual cases I
missed.

Finishes implementing https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/10598,
which asks for a spread operator in lists, in records, and when calling
commands.
# Description
<!--
Thank you for improving Nushell. Please, check our [contributing
guide](../CONTRIBUTING.md) and talk to the core team before making major
changes.

screenshots** if your changes affect the user experience.

This PR will allow spreading arguments to commands (both internal and
external). It will also deprecate spreading arguments automatically when
passing to external commands.
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
- Users will be able to use `...` to spread arguments to custom/builtin
commands that have rest parameters or allow unknown arguments, or to any
external command
- If a custom command doesn't have a rest parameter and it doesn't allow
unknown arguments either, the spread operator will not be allowed
- Passing lists to external commands without `...` will work for now but
will cause a deprecation warning saying that it'll stop working in 0.91
(is 2 versions enough time?)
Here's a function to help with demonstrating some behavior:
```nushell
> def foo [ a, b, c?, d?, ...rest ] { [$a $b $c $d $rest] | to nuon }
```
You can pass a list of arguments to fill in the `rest` parameter using
`...`:
```nushell
> foo 1 2 3 4 ...[5 6]
[1, 2, 3, 4, [5, 6]]
```
If you don't use `...`, the list `[5 6]` will be treated as a single
argument:
```nushell
> foo 1 2 3 4 [5 6] # Note the double [[]]
[1, 2, 3, 4, [[5, 6]]]
```
You can omit optional parameters before the spread arguments:
```nushell
> foo 1 2 3 ...[4 5] # d is omitted here
[1, 2, 3, null, [4, 5]]
```
If you have multiple lists, you can spread them all:
```nushell
> foo 1 2 3 ...[4 5] 6 7 ...[8] ...[]
[1, 2, 3, null, [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]]
```
Here's the kind of error you get when you try to spread arguments to a
command with no rest parameter:
And this is the warning you get when you pass a list to an external now
(without `...`):

Added tests to cover the following cases:
- Spreading arguments to a command that doesn't have a rest parameter
(unexpected spread argument error)
- Spreading arguments to a command that doesn't have a rest parameter
*but* there's also a missing positional argument (missing positional
error)
- Spreading arguments to a command that doesn't have a rest parameter
but does allow unknown arguments, such as `exec` (allowed)
- Spreading a list literal containing arguments of the wrong type (parse
error)
- Spreading a non-list value, both to internal and external commands
- Having named arguments in the middle of rest arguments
- `explain`ing a command call that spreads its arguments

# Examples
Suppose you have multiple tables:
```nushell
let people = [[id name age]; [0 alice 100] [1 bob 200] [2 eve 300]]
let evil_twins = [[id name age]; [0 ecila 100] [-1 bob 200] [-2 eve 300]]
```
Maybe you often find yourself needing to merge multiple tables and want
a utility to do that. You could write a function like this:
```nushell
def merge_all [ ...tables ] { $tables | reduce { |it, acc| $acc | merge $it } }
```
Then you can use it like this:
```nushell
> merge_all ...([$people $evil_twins] | each { |$it| $it | select name age })
╭───┬───────┬─────╮
│ # │ name │ age │
├───┼───────┼─────┤
│ 0 │ ecila │ 100 │
│ 1 │ bob │ 200 │
│ 2 │ eve │ 300 │
╰───┴───────┴─────╯
```
Except they had duplicate columns, so now you first want to suffix every
column with a number to tell you which table the column came from. You
can make a command for that:
```nushell
def select_and_merge [ --cols: list<string>, ...tables ] {
let renamed_tables = $tables
| enumerate
| each { |it|
$it.item | select $cols | rename ...($cols | each { |col| $col + ($it.index | into string) })
};
merge_all ...$renamed_tables
}
```
And call it like this:
```nushell
> select_and_merge --cols [name age] $people $evil_twins
╭───┬───────┬──────┬───────┬──────╮
│ # │ name0 │ age0 │ name1 │ age1 │
├───┼───────┼──────┼───────┼──────┤
│ 0 │ alice │ 100 │ ecila │ 100 │
│ 1 │ bob │ 200 │ bob │ 200 │
│ 2 │ eve │ 300 │ eve │ 300 │
╰───┴───────┴──────┴───────┴──────╯
```
---
Suppose someone's made a command to search for APT packages:
```nushell
# The main command
def search-pkgs [
--install # Whether to install any packages it finds
log_level: int # Pretend it's a good idea to make this a required positional parameter
exclude?: list<string> # Packages to exclude
repositories?: list<string> # Which repositories to look in (searches in all if not given)
...pkgs # Package names to search for
] {
{ install: $install, log_level: $log_level, exclude: ($exclude | to nuon), repositories: ($repositories | to nuon), pkgs: ($pkgs | to nuon) }
}
```
It has a lot of parameters to configure it, so you might make your own
helper commands to wrap around it for specific cases. Here's one
example:
```nushell
# Only look for packages locally
def search-pkgs-local [
--install # Whether to install any packages it finds
log_level: int
exclude?: list<string> # Packages to exclude
...pkgs # Package names to search for
] {
# All required and optional positional parameters are given
search-pkgs --install=$install $log_level [] ["<local URI or something>"] ...$pkgs
}
```
And you can run it like this:
```nushell
> search-pkgs-local --install=false 5 ...["python2.7" "vim"]
╭──────────────┬──────────────────────────────╮
│ install │ false │
│ log_level │ 5 │
│ exclude │ [] │
│ repositories │ ["<local URI or something>"] │
│ pkgs │ ["python2.7", vim] │
╰──────────────┴──────────────────────────────╯
```
One thing I realized when writing this was that if we decide to not
allow passing optional arguments using the spread operator, then you can
(mis?)use the spread operator to skip optional parameters. Here, I
didn't want to give `exclude` explicitly, so I used a spread operator to
pass the packages to install. Without it, I would've needed to do
`search-pkgs-local --install=false 5 [] "python2.7" "vim"` (explicitly
pass `[]` (or `null`, in the general case) to `exclude`). There are
probably more idiomatic ways to do this, but I just thought it was
something interesting.
If you're a virologist of the [xkcd](https://xkcd.com/350/) kind,
another helper command you might make is this:
```nushell
# Install any packages it finds
def live-dangerously [ ...pkgs ] {
# One optional argument was given (exclude), while another was not (repositories)
search-pkgs 0 [] ...$pkgs --install # Flags can go after spread arguments
}
```
Running it:
```nushell
> live-dangerously "git" "*vi*" # *vi* because I don't feel like typing out vim and neovim
╭──────────────┬─────────────╮
│ install │ true │
│ log_level │ 0 │
│ exclude │ [] │
│ repositories │ null │
│ pkgs │ [git, *vi*] │
╰──────────────┴─────────────╯
```
Here's an example that uses the spread operator more than once within
the same command call:
```nushell
let extras = [ chrome firefox python java git ]
def search-pkgs-curated [ ...pkgs ] {
(search-pkgs
1
[emacs]
["example.com", "foo.com"]
vim # A must for everyone!
...($pkgs | filter { |p| not ($p | str contains "*") }) # Remove packages with globs
python # Good tool to have
...$extras
--install=false
python3) # I forget, did I already put Python in extras?
}
```
Running it:
```nushell
> search-pkgs-curated "git" "*vi*"
╭──────────────┬───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ install │ false │
│ log_level │ 1 │
│ exclude │ [emacs] │
│ repositories │ [example.com, foo.com] │
│ pkgs │ [vim, git, python, chrome, firefox, python, java, git, "python3"] │

# Description
Currently, when writing a record, if you don't give the value for a
field, the syntax error highlights the entire record instead of
pinpointing the issue. Here's some examples:
```nushell
> { a: 2, 3 } # Missing colon (and value)
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ { a: 2, 3 }
· ─────┬─────
· ╰── expected record
╰────
> { a: 2, 3: } # Missing value
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #3:1:1]
1 │ { a: 2, 3: }
· ──────┬─────
· ╰── expected record
╰────
> { a: 2, 3 4 } # Missing colon
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #4:1:1]
1 │ { a: 2, 3 4 }
· ──────┬──────
· ╰── expected record
╰────
```
In all of them, the entire record is highlighted red because an
`Expr::Garbage` is returned covering that whole span:
This PR is for highlighting only the part inside the record that could
not be parsed. If the record literal is big, an error message pointing
to the start of where the parser thinks things went wrong should help
people fix their code.
# User-Facing Changes
Below are screenshots of the new errors:
If there's a stray record key right before the record ends, it
highlights only that key and tells the user it expected a colon after
it:
If the record ends before the value for the last field was given, it
highlights the key and colon of that field and tells the user it
expected a value after the colon:
If there are two consecutive expressions without a colon between them,
it highlights everything from the second expression to the end of the
record and tells the user it expected a colon. I was tempted to add a
help message suggesting adding a colon in between, but that may not
always be the right thing to do.

# Description
`Expression::replace_in_variable` is only called in one place, and it is
called with `new_var_id` = `IN_VARIABLE_ID`. So, it ends up doing
nothing. E.g., adding `debug_assert_eq!(new_var_id, IN_VARIABLE_ID)` in
`replace_in_variable` does not trigger any panic.
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking change for `nu_protocol`.
# Description
While #11057 is merged, it's hard to tell the difference between
`--flag: bool` and `--flag`, and it makes user hard to read custom
commands' signature, and hard to use them correctly.
After discussion, I think we can deprecate `--flag: bool` usage, and
encourage using `--flag` instead.
# User-Facing Changes
The following code will raise warning message, but don't stop from
running.

# Description
to allow more freedom when writing complex modules, we are disabling the
auto-export of director modules.
the change was as simple as removing the crawling of files and modules
next to any `mod.nu` and update the standard library.
# User-Facing Changes
users will have to explicitely use `export module <mod>` to define
submodules and `export use <mod> <cmd>` to re-export definitions, e.g.
```nushell
# my-module/mod.nu
export module foo.nu # export a submodule
export use bar.nu bar-1 # re-export an internal command
export def top [] {
print "`top` from `mod.nu`"
}
```
```nushell
# my-module/foo.nu
export def "foo-1" [] {
print "`foo-1` from `lib/foo.nu`"
}
export def "foo-2" [] {
print "`foo-2` from `lib/foo.nu`"
}
```
```nushell
# my-module/bar.nu
export def "bar-1" [] {
print "`bar-1` from `lib/bar.nu`"
}
```
# Tests + Formatting
i had to add `export module` calls in the `tests/modules/samples/spam`
directory module and allow the `not_allowed` module to not give an
error, it is just empty, which is fine.

It turns out that I left a bug in
[#11144](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11144/), which
introduced a spread operator in record literals. When highlighting
subexpressions that are spread inside records, the spread operator and
the token before it are insert twice. Currently, when you type `{ ...()
}`, this is what you'll see:
With the PR, the behavior is as expected:
I'm still not sure how `FlatShape` works, I just copied the existing
logic for flattening key-value pairs in records, so it's possible
there's still issues, but I haven't found any yet (tried spreading
subexpressions, variables, and records).

Goes towards implementing #10598, which asks for a spread operator in
lists, in records, and when calling commands (continuation of #11006,
which only implements it in lists)
# Description
This PR is for adding a spread operator that can be used when building
records. Additional functionality can be added later.
Changes:
- Previously, the `Expr::Record` variant held `(Expression, Expression)`
pairs. It now holds instances of an enum `RecordItem` (the name isn't
amazing) that allows either a key-value mapping or a spread operator.
- `...` will be treated as the spread operator when it appears before
`$`, `{`, or `(` inside records (no whitespace allowed in between) (not
implemented yet)
- The error message for duplicate columns now includes the column name
itself, because if two spread records are involved in such an error, you
can't tell which field was duplicated from the spans alone
`...` will still be treated as a normal string outside records, and even
in records, it is not treated as a spread operator when not followed
immediately by a `$`, `{`, or `(`.
# User-Facing Changes
Users will be able to use `...` when building records.
```
> let rec = { x: 1, ...{ a: 2 } }
> $rec

```
If you want to update a field of a record, you'll have to use `merge`
instead:
```

Error: nu:🐚:column_defined_twice

Works for all arguments and flags. Because the signature parsing doesn't
give the spans, it is flags the entire signature.
Also added a constant with reserved variable names.
Fix#11158.
# Description
Close: #10278
This pr introduces `o>>`, `e>>`, `o+e>>` to allow redirection to append
to a file.
Examples:
```nushell
echo abc o>> a.txt
echo abc o>> a.txt
cat asdf e>> a.txt
cat asdf e>> a.txt
cat asdf o+e>> a.txt
```
~~TODO:~~
~~1. currently internal commands with `o+e>` redirect to a variable is
broken: `let x = "a.txt"; echo abc o+e> $x`, not sure when it was
introduced...~~
~~2. redirect stdout and stderr with append mode doesn't supported yet:
`cat asdf o>>a.txt e>>b.ext`~~
~~For these 2 items, I'd like to fix them in different prs.~~
Already done in this pr
# Description
This PR enables a new feature that shows which externals are found in
your path via the syntax highlighter as you type.
This idea could use some improvement where it caches the items in your
path and on some trigger, expires that cache and creates a new on. Right
now, all it does is call the `which` crate on every character you type.
This could be problematic if you have hundreds of paths in your PATH or
if some of your paths in your Path point to extraordinarily slow file
systems. WSL pointing to Windows comes to mind. Either way, I've thrown
it up here for people to try and provide feedback. I think the novelty
of showing what is valid and what isn't is pretty cool. I believe
fish-shell also does this, IIRC.

# Description
Fixes: #10271
Given the following script:
```shell
# test.sh
echo aaaaa
echo bbbbb 1>&2
echo cc
```
This pr makes the following command possible:
```nushell
bash test.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}
```
## General idea behind the change:
When nushell redirect stderr message to external file
1. it take stdout of external stream, and pass this stream to next
command, so it won't block next pipeline command from running.
2. relative stderr stream are handled by `save` command
These two streams are handled separately, so we need to delegate a
thread to `save` command, or else we'll have a chance to hang nushell,
we have meet a similar before: #5625.
### One case to consider
What if we're failed to save to an external stream? (Like we don't have
a permission to save to a file)?
In this case nushell will just print a waning message, and don't stop
the following scripts from running.
# User-Facing Changes
## Before
```nushell
❯ bash test2.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}
aaaaa
cc
```
## After
```nushell
❯ bash test2.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}
╭───┬───╮

╰───┴───╯
```
BTY, after this pr, the following commands are impossible either, it's
important to make sure that the implementation doesn't introduce too
much costs:
```nushell
❯ echo a e> a.txt e> a.txt
Error: × Can't make stderr redirection twice
╭─[entry #1:1:1]
1 │ echo a e> a.txt e> a.txt
· ─┬

❯ echo a o> a.txt o> a.txt
Error: × Can't make stdout redirection twice
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ echo a o> a.txt o> a.txt
· ─┬
· ╰── try to remove one
╰────
```
# Description
Closes: #7260
About the change:
When we make an internalcall, and meet a `switch` (Flag.arg is None),
nushell will try to see if the switch is called like `--xyz=false` , if
that is true, `parse_long_flag` will return relative value.
# User-Facing Changes
So after the pr, the following would be possible:
```nushell
def build-imp [--push, --release] {
echo $"Doing a build with push: ($push) and release: ($release)"
}
def build [--push, --release] {
build-imp --push=$push --release=$release
}
build --push --release=false
build --push=false --release=true
build --push=false --release=false
build --push --release

Fixes: #11033
Sorry for the issue, it's a regression which introduce by this pr:
#10456.
And this pr is going to fix it.
About the change: create a new field named `type_annotated` for
`Arg::Flag` and `Arg::Signature` instead of `arg_explicit_type`
variable.
When we meet a type in `TypeMode`, we set `type_annotated` field of the
argument to be true, then we know that if the arg have a annotated type
easily
# Description
Add an extension trait `IgnoreCaseExt` to nu_utils which adds some case
insensitivity helpers, and use them throughout nu to improve the
handling of case insensitivity. Proper case folding is done via unicase,
which is already a dependency via mime_guess from nu-command.
In actuality a lot of code still does `to_lowercase`, because unicase
only provides immediate comparison and doesn't expose a `to_folded_case`
yet. And since we do a lot of `contains`/`starts_with`/`ends_with`, it's
not sufficient to just have `eq_ignore_case`. But if we get access in
the future, this makes us ready to use it with a change in one place.
Plus, it's clearer what the purpose is at the call site to call
`to_folded_case` instead of `to_lowercase` if it's exclusively for the
purpose of case insensitive comparison, even if it just does
`to_lowercase` still.
# User-Facing Changes
- Some commands that were supposed to be case insensitive remained only
insensitive to ASCII case (a-z), and now are case insensitive w.r.t.
non-ASCII characters as well.

# Description
Fixes: #10830
The issue happened during lite-parsing, when we want to put a
`LiteElement` to a `LitePipeline`, we do nothing if relative redirection
target is empty.
So the command `echo aaa o> | ignore` will be interpreted to `echo aaa |
ignore`.
This pr is going to check and return an error if redirection target is
empty.

# Description
Since the `else` clause for the nested branches check for the first
unmatched argument, this PR brings together all the conditions where the
positional argument shape is numeric using the `matches!` keyword. This
also allows us to and (`&&`) the condition with when no short flags are
found unlike the `if let ...` statements. Finally, we can handle any
`unmatched_short_flags` at one place.
# User-Facing Changes
No user facing changes.
When looking into `lite_parse` function, I found that it contains some
duplicate code, and they can be expressed as an action called
`push_command_to(pipeline)`.
And I believe it will make our life easier to support something like
`o>> a.txt`, `e>> a.txt`.
In the final match of `lex_item`, we'll return `Err(ParseError)` in rare
case, normally we'll return None.
So I think making error part mutable can reduce some code, and it's
better if we want to add more lex items.
# Description
Relax typechecking of key-less `table`/`record`
Assume that they are acceptable for more narrowly specified
`table<...>`/`record<...>` where `...` specifies keys and potentially
types for those keys/columns.
This ensures that you can use commands that specify general return
values statically with more specific input-/args-type requirements.
Reduces the power of the type-check a bit but unlocks you to actually
use the specific annotations in more places.
Incompatibilities will only be raised if an output type declares
specific columns/keys.
Closes#9702
Supersedes #10594 as a simpler solution requiring no extra distinction.

# Description
because we already have `null` as the value of the type `nothing` and as
a followup to the two other attempts of mine, i propose to remove the
redundant `$nothing` built-in variable 😋
this PR is the first step, deprecating `$nothing`.
a followup PR will remove it altogether and wait for 0.87 👍⚙️ **details**: a new `NOTHING_VARIABLE_ID = 3` has been added,
parsing `$nothing` will create it, finally a `Value::Nothing` will be
produced and a warning will be reported.
this PR already fixes the `toolkit.nu` module so that it does not throw
a bunch of warnings each time 👌

Fix type checking in arguments default values not adhering to subtyping
rules
Currently following examples produce a parse error:
```nu
def test [ --qwe: record<a: int> = {a: 1 b: 1} ] { }
def test [ --qwe: list<any> = [ 1 2 3 ] ] { }
```
despite types matching. Type equality check is replaced with subtyping
check and everything parses fine:
# User-Facing Changes
Default values of flag arguments type checking behavior is in line with
`let` statements
# Description
This PR fixes#9702 on the side of parse. I.e. input/output types in
signature and type annotations in `let` now should correctly parse with
type annotations that contain commas and spaces:
# User-Facing Changes
Return values and let type annotations now can contain stuff like
`table<a: int b: record<c: string d: datetime>>` e.t.c
# Description
Fixes: #10450
This pr differentiating between `--x: bool` and `--x`
Here are examples which demostrate difference between them:
```nushell
def a [--x: bool] { $x };
a --x # not allowed, you need to parse a value to the flag.
a # it's allowed, and the value of `$x` is false, which behaves the same to `def a [--x] { $x }; a`
```
For boolean flag with default value, it works a little bit different to
#10450 mentioned:
```nushell
def foo [--option: bool = false] { $option }
foo # output false
foo --option # not allowed, you need to parse a value to the flag.
foo --option true # output true
```
# User-Facing Changes
After the pr, the following code is not allowed:
```nushell
def a [--x: bool] { $x }; a --x
```
Instead, you have to pass a value to flag `--x` like `a --x false`. But
bare flag works in the same way as before.
## Update: one more breaking change to help on #7260
```
def foo [--option: bool] { $option == null }
foo
```
After the pr, if we don't use a boolean flag, the value will be `null`
instead of `true`. Because here `--option: bool` is treated as a flag
rather than a switch

When parse_range get an item like ((((1..2)))) it would try to parse
"((((1" with a long chain of recursive parsers, namely:
- parse_value
- parse_paren_expr
- parse_full_cell_path
- parse_block
- parse_pipeline
- parse_builtin_commands
- parse_expression
- parse_math_expression
- parse_value
- ...
where `parse_paren_expr` calls `parse_range` in turn. Because at any
time in the chain `parse_paren_expr` can call `parse_range`, which will
then continue the chain, we get quadratic number of function calls, each
linear on the size of the input
By checking with the lexer that the parens are matched, we prevent the
long chain from being called on unmatched braces. Now, this is still
more quadratic than it needs to be, to fix that, we should process
parens only once, instead of on each recursive call

# Other notes
Found using the fuzzer, by setting a timeout on max run-time. It also
found a stack-overflow on too many parentheses, which this doesn't fix.
# Description
Fixes: #10410
So the following script is possible:
```nushell
def a [b: any = null] { let b = ($b | default "default_b"); }
a "given_b"
```
## About the change
When parsing signature, and nushell meets something like `a: any`, it
force the parser to treat `a` as `any` type. This is what
`arg_explicit_type` means, it's only set when we goes into
`ParseMode::TypeMode`, and it will be reset to `false` if the token goes
to next argument.
so, when we have something like this: `def a [b: any = null] { $b }`,
the type of `$b` won't be overwritten.
But if we have something like this: `def a [b = null] { $b }`, the type
of `$b` is not annotated, so we make it to be `nothing`(which is the
type of null)

Before this change, parsing `[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[` would cause nushell
to consume several gigabytes of memory, now it should be linear in time.
The old code first tried parsing the head of the table as a list and
then after that it checked if it got more arguments. If it didn't, it
throws away the previous result and tries to parse the whole thing as a
list, which means we call `parse_list_expression` twice for each call to
`parse_table_expression`, resulting in the exponential growth
The fix is to simply check that we have all the arguments we need before
parsing the head of the table, so we know that we will either call
parse_list_expression only on sub-expressions or on the whole thing,
never both.

# Description
Currently we support "multiplication" of strings, resulting in a terse
way to repeat a particular string.
This can have unintended side effects when dealing with mixed data (e.g.
after parsing data that is not all numbers).
Furthermore as we frequently fall-back to strings while parsing source
code, this introduced a runaway edge case in const evaluation (#10212)
Work for #10233
## Details
- Remove python-like string multiplication.
- Workaround for indentation
- This should probably be addressed with a purpose built command
- Remove special const-eval error test

# Description
The pythonism that multiplying a scalar integer with a list results in a
repeated concatenation of the list, is ambiguous with other possible
interpretations and thus actively harmful to clear semantics in nushell.
Another possible reading of this scalar/vector product would be trying
to perform elementwise multiplication with the scalar.
Before we bless this alternative as a more reasonable design the best
course of action is to remove this pythonism.
