# Description
_cell paths_ can be easily serialized back and forth to NUON with the
leading `$.` syntax.
# User-Facing Changes
```nushell
$.foo.bar.0 | to nuon
```
and
```nushell
"$.foo.bar.0" | from nuon
```
are now possible
# Tests + Formatting
a new `cell_path` test has been added to `nuon`
# After Submitting
# Description
Removes lazy records from the language, following from the reasons
outlined in #12622. Namely, this should make semantics more clear and
will eliminate concerns regarding maintainability.
# User-Facing Changes
- Breaking change: `lazy make` is removed.
- Breaking change: `describe --collect-lazyrecords` flag is removed.
- `sys` and `debug info` now return regular records.
# After Submitting
- Update nushell book if necessary.
- Explore new `sys` and `debug info` APIs to prevent them from taking
too long (e.g., subcommands or taking an optional column/cell-path
argument).
# Description
This PR adds raw string support by using `r#` at the beginning of single
quoted strings and `#` at the end.
Notice that escapes do not process, even within single quotes,
parentheses don't mean anything, $variables don't mean anything. It's
just a string.
```nushell
❯ echo r#'one\ntwo (blah) ($var)'#
one\ntwo (blah) ($var)
```
Notice how they work without `echo` or `print` and how they work without
carriage returns.
```nushell
❯ r#'adsfa'#
adsfa
❯ r##"asdfa'@qpejq'##
asdfa'@qpejq
❯ r#'asdfasdfasf
∙ foqwejfqo@'23rfjqf'#
```
They also have a special configurable color in the repl. (use single
quotes though)
![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/343840/8780e21d-de4c-45b3-9880-2425f5fe10ef)
They should work like rust raw literals and allow `r##`, `r###`,
`r####`, etc, to help with having one or many `#`'s in the middle of
your raw-string.
They should work with `let` as well.
```nushell
r#'some\nraw\nstring'# | str upcase
```

# Description
Continuing from #12568, this PR further reduces the size of `Expr` from
64 to 40 bytes. It also reduces `Expression` from 128 to 96 bytes and
`Type` from 32 to 24 bytes.
This was accomplished by:
- for `Expr` with multiple fields (e.g., `Expr::Thing(A, B, C)`),
merging the fields into new AST struct types and then boxing this struct
(e.g. `Expr::Thing(Box<ABC>)`).
- replacing `Vec<T>` with `Box<[T]>` in multiple places. `Expr`s and
`Expression`s should rarely be mutated, if at all, so this optimization
makes sense.
By reducing the size of these types, I didn't notice a large performance
improvement (at least compared to #12568). But this PR does reduce the
memory usage of nushell. My config is somewhat light so I only noticed a
difference of 1.4MiB (38.9MiB vs 37.5MiB).

# Description
there was a typo in the doc of `nuon::ToStyle`.
# User-Facing Changes
# Tests + Formatting
# After Submitting
# Description
`Value` describes the types of first-class values that users and scripts
can create, manipulate, pass around, and store. However, `Block`s are
not first-class values in the language, so this PR removes it from
`Value`. This removes some unnecessary code, and this change should be
invisible to the user except for the change to `scope modules` described
below.
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking change: the output of `scope modules` was changed so that
`env_block` is now `has_env_block` which is a boolean value instead of a
`Block`.
# After Submitting
Update the language guide possibly.
# Description
in order to change the style of the _serialized_ NUON data,
`nuon::to_nuon` takes three mutually exclusive arguments, `raw: bool`,
`tabs: Option<usize>` and `indent: Option<usize>` 🤔
this begs to use an enumeration with all possible alternatives, right?
this PR changes the signature of `nuon::to_nuon` to use `nuon::ToStyle`
which has three variants
- `Raw`: no newlines
- `Tabs(n: usize)`: newlines and `n` tabulations as indent
- `Spaces(n: usize)`: newlines and `n` spaces as indent
# User-Facing Changes
the signature of `nuon::to_nuon` changes from
```rust
to_nuon(
input: &Value,
raw: bool,
tabs: Option<usize>,
indent: Option<usize>,
span: Option<Span>,
) -> Result<String, ShellError>
```
to
```rust
to_nuon(
input: &Value,
style: ToStyle,
span: Option<Span>
) -> Result<String, ShellError>
```

# Description
playing with the NUON format in Rust code in some plugins, we agreed
with the team it was a great time to create a standalone NUON format to
allow Rust devs to use this Nushell file format.
> **Note**
> this PR almost copy-pastes the code from
`nu_commands/src/formats/from/nuon.rs` and
`nu_commands/src/formats/to/nuon.rs` to `nuon/src/from.rs` and
`nuon/src/to.rs`, with minor tweaks to make then standalone functions,
e.g. remove the rest of the command implementations
### TODO
- [x] add tests
- [x] add documentation
# User-Facing Changes
devs will have access to a new crate, `nuon`, and two functions,
`from_nuon` and `to_nuon`
```rust
from_nuon(
input: &str,
span: Option<Span>,
) -> Result<Value, ShellError>
```
```rust
to_nuon(
input: &Value,
raw: bool,
tabs: Option<usize>,
indent: Option<usize>,
span: Option<Span>,
) -> Result<String, ShellError>
```
# Tests + Formatting
i've basically taken all the tests from
`crates/nu-command/tests/format_conversions/nuon.rs` and converted them
to use `from_nuon` and `to_nuon` instead of Nushell commands
- i've created a `nuon_end_to_end` to run both conversions with an
optional middle value to check that all is fine
> **Note**
> the `nuon::tests::read_code_should_fail_rather_than_panic` test does
give different results locally and in the CI...
> i've left it ignored with comments to help future us :)
# After Submitting
mention that in the release notes for sure!!
