# Description
Add custom command attributes.
- Attributes are placed before a command definition and start with a `@`
character.
- Attribute invocations consist of const command call. The command's
name must start with "attr ", but this prefix is not used in the
invocation.
- A command named `attr example` is invoked as an attribute as
`@example`
- Several built-in attribute commands are provided as part of this PR
- `attr example`: Attaches an example to the commands help text
```nushell
# Double numbers
@example "double an int" { 5 | double } --result 10
@example "double a float" { 0.5 | double } --result 1.0
def double []: [number -> number] {
$in * 2
}
```
- `attr search-terms`: Adds search terms to a command
- ~`attr env`: Equivalent to using `def --env`~
- ~`attr wrapped`: Equivalent to using `def --wrapped`~ shelved for
later discussion
- several testing related attributes in `std/testing`
- If an attribute has no internal/special purpose, it's stored as
command metadata that can be obtained with `scope commands`.
- This allows having attributes like `@test` which can be used by test
runners.
- Used the `@example` attribute for `std` examples.
- Updated the std tests and test runner to use `@test` attributes
- Added completions for attributes
# User-Facing Changes
Users can add examples to their own command definitions, and add other
arbitrary attributes.
# Tests + Formatting
- 🟢 toolkit fmt
- 🟢 toolkit clippy
- 🟢 toolkit test
- 🟢 toolkit test stdlib
# After Submitting
- Add documentation about the attribute syntax and built-in attributes
- `help attributes`

# Description
* Primary purpose is to fix an issue with a missing escaped opening
parenthesis in the warning message when running an old `dirs` alias.
This was creating an error condition from improper interpolation.
Also
* Incorporates #13842 feedback from @kubouch by renaming `std/lib` to
`std/util`
* Removes duplication of code in `export-env`
* Renames submodule exports to `std/<submodule>` rather than
`./<submodule>` - No user-facing change other than `view files` appears
"prettier".
* In #13842, I converted the test cases to use `use std/<module>`
syntax. Previously, the tests were (effectively) using `use std *` (due
to pre-existing bugs, now fixed).
So "before", we only had test coverage on `use std *`, and "after" we
only had test coverage on `use std/<module>`. I've started adding test
cases so that we have coverage on *both* scenarios going forward.
For now, `formats` and `util` have been updated with tests for both
scenarios. I'll continue adding the others in future PRs.
# User-Facing Changes
No user-facing changes - Bug fix, refactor, and test cases only
# Tests + Formatting
- 🟢 `toolkit fmt`
- 🟢 `toolkit clippy`
- 🟢 `toolkit test`
- 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`
# After Submitting
Still working on updating the Doc. I ran into the `dirs` issue while
writing it and rabbit-trailed to fix it in this PR.
