# Description
The intended effect of the `extra` feature has been undermined by
introducing the full builds on our release pages and having more
activity on some of the extra commands.
To simplify the feature matrix let's get rid of it and focus our effort
on truly either refining a command to well-specified behavior or
discarding it entirely from the `nu` binary and moving it into plugins.
## Details
- Remove `--features extra` from CI
- Don't explicitly name `extra` in full build wf
- Remove feature extra from build-help scripts
- Update README in `nu-cmd-extra`
- Remove feature `extra`
- Fix previously dead `format pattern` tests
- Relax signature of `to html`
- Fix/ignore `html::test_no_color_flag`
- Remove dead features from `version`
- Refine `to html` type signature
# User-Facing Changes
The commands that were previously only available when building with
`--features extra` will now be available to everyone. This increases the
number of dependencies slightly but has a limited impact on the overall
binary size.
# Tests + Formatting
Some tests that were left in `nu-command` during cratification were dead
because the feature was not passed to `nu-command` and only to
`nu-cmd-lang` for feature-flag mention in `version`.
Those tests have now been either fixed or ignored in one case.
# After Submitting
There may be places in the documentation where we point to `--features
extra` that will now be moot (apart from the generated command help)
# Description
This removes the old style "cd with abbreviations" that would attempt to
guess what directory you wanted to `cd` to. This would sometimes have
false positives, so we left it off by default in the config.
In the current main, we have much-improved path completions
(https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/10543) so you can now do `cd
a/b<tab>` and get a much better experience (because you can see the
directory you're about to cd to). This removes the need for the previous
abbreviation system.
# User-Facing Changes
This does remove the old abbreviation system. It will likely mean that
old config files that have settings for abbreviations will now get
errors.
update: here's an example of the error you'll see:

# 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).

unrelated commits. I'm never going to pull from the github feature

Show parameter defaults in scope command signature, where they're
available for display by help.
per https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8928.
I found unexpected ramifications in one completer (NuHelpCompleter) and
plugins, which both use the flag-formatting routine from builtin help.
For the moment I made the minimum necessary changes to get the mainline
scenario to pass tests and run. But we should circle back on what to do
with plugins and help completer..
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
1. New `parameter_default` column to `signatures` table in
`$nu.scope.commands`
It is populated with whatever parameters can be defaulted: currently
positional args and named flags.
2. Built in help (both `help <command>` and `<command> --help` will
display the defaults
3. Help completer will display defaults for flags, but not for
positionals.
Example:
A custom command with some default parameters:
```
〉cat ~/work/dflts.nu
# sample function to show defaults in help
export def main [
arg1: string # mandatory positional
arg2:string=abc # optional positional
--switch # no default here
--named:int # named flag, no default
--other:string=def # flag
--hard:record<foo:int bar:string, bas:bool> # default can be compound type
= {foo:22, bar:"other worlds", bas:false}
] { {arg1: $arg1,
arg2: $arg2,
switch: $switch,
named: $named,
other: $other,
hard: $hard, }
}
〉use ~/work/dflts.nu
〉$nu.scope.commands | where name == 'dflts' | get signatures.0.any | reject short_flag description custom_completion

〉help dflts
sample function to show defaults in help
Usage:
> dflts {flags} <arg1> (arg2)
Flags:
--switch - switch -- no default here
--named <Int> - named flag, typed, but no default
--other <String> - flag with default (default: 'def')
--hard <Record([("foo", Int), ("bar", String), ("bas", Boolean)])> - default can be compound type (default: {foo: 22, bar: 'other worlds', bas: false})
-h, --help - Display the help message for this command
Parameters:
arg1 <string>: mandatory positional
arg2 <string>: optional positional (optional, default: 'abc')
```
Compared to (relevant bits of) help output previously:
```
Flags:
-h, --help - Display the help message for this command
-, --switch - no default here
-, --named <int> - named flag, no default
-, --other <string> - flag
-, --hard <record<foo: int, bar: string, bas: bool>> - default can be compound type
Signatures:
<any> | dflts <string> <string> -> <any>
Parameters:
arg1 <string>: mandatory positional
(optional) arg2 <string>: optional positional

# Description
this PR adds, when it is defined in the `examples` method of the
`Command` implementations, the output of the examples to the output of
the `help` command.
this PR
- only modifies `crates/nu-engine/src/documentation.rs` and the
`get_documentation` function
- defines a new `WD` constant to print a **W**hite **D**immed `...`
- a `match` statement at the end of the example loop to
- print a white dimmed `...` when the example is not set, i.e. set to
`None` in the `examples` method of the `Command` implementation of a
command
- pretty print the output of the associated example `Value` when it has
been defined
> **Warning**
> LIMITATIONS:
> - i use snippets from `crates/nu-protocol/src/pipeline_data.rs`
> - the table creation from `pub PipelineData::print`, i.e. the `let
decl_id = ...;` and `let table = ...;` in the change
> - the table item printing from `PipelineData::write_all_and_flush`,
i.e. the `for item in table { ... }`
>
> ADDRESSED:
> - ~~the formatting of the output is not perfect and has to be fully
left aligned with the first column for now~~ (fixed with
[`5abeefd558c34ba9bae15e2f183ff4625442921e`..`a62be1b5a2c730959da5dbc028bb91ffe5093f63`](5abeefd558c34ba9bae15e2f183ff4625442921e..a62be1b5a2c730959da5dbc028bb91ffe5093f63))
> - ~~i'm using `.unwrap()` on both the changes above, not sure how to
handle this for now~~ (fixed for now thanks to 49f1dc080)
> - ~~the tests and `clippy` checks do not pass for now, see below~~
(`clippy` now is happy with 49f1dc080 and the tests pass with
11666bc715)
# User-Facing Changes
the output of the `help <command>` command is now augmented with the
outputs of the examples, when they are defined.
- `with-env`
```bash
> help with-env
...
Examples:
Set the MYENV environment variable
> with-env [MYENV "my env value"] { $env.MYENV }
my env value
Set by primitive value list
> with-env [X Y W Z] { $env.X }
Y
Set by single row table
> with-env [[X W]; [Y Z]] { $env.W }
Z
Set by key-value record
> with-env {X: "Y", W: "Z"} { [$env.X $env.W] }
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ Y │
│ 1 │ Z │
╰───┴───╯
```
instead of the previous
```bash
> help with-env
...
Examples:
Set the MYENV environment variable
> with-env [MYENV "my env value"] { $env.MYENV }
Set by primitive value list
> with-env [X Y W Z] { $env.X }
Set by single row table
> with-env [[X W]; [Y Z]] { $env.W }
Set by key-value record
> with-env {X: "Y", W: "Z"} { [$env.X $env.W] }
```
- `merge`
```bash
> help merge
...
Examples:
Add an 'index' column to the input table
> [a b c] | wrap name | merge ( [1 2 3] | wrap index )
╭───┬──────╮
│ # │ name │
├───┼──────┤
│ 1 │ a │
│ 2 │ b │
│ 3 │ c │
╰───┴──────╯
Merge two records
> {a: 1, b: 2} | merge {c: 3}
╭───┬───╮
│ a │ 1 │
│ b │ 2 │
│ c │ 3 │
╰───┴───╯
Merge two tables, overwriting overlapping columns
> [{columnA: A0 columnB: B0}] | merge [{columnA: 'A0*'}]
╭───┬─────────┬─────────╮
│ # │ columnA │ columnB │
├───┼─────────┼─────────┤
│ 0 │ A0* │ B0 │
╰───┴─────────┴─────────╯
```
instead of the previous
```bash
> help merge
...
Examples:
Add an 'index' column to the input table
> [a b c] | wrap name | merge ( [1 2 3] | wrap index )
Merge two records
> {a: 1, b: 2} | merge {c: 3}
Merge two tables, overwriting overlapping columns
> [{columnA: A0 columnB: B0}] | merge [{columnA: 'A0*'}]
```

* Fix <table> output of 'to html',
Specifically, add <thead> and <tbody> elements.
That allows for better styling and (future) some neat JavaScript.
* Update tests for previous <table> changes.
* 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
