# Description
This PR adds an internal representation language to Nushell, offering an
alternative evaluator based on simple instructions, stream-containing
registers, and indexed control flow. The number of registers required is
determined statically at compile-time, and the fixed size required is
allocated upon entering the block.
Each instruction is associated with a span, which makes going backwards
from IR instructions to source code very easy.
Motivations for IR:
1. **Performance.** By simplifying the evaluation path and making it
more cache-friendly and branch predictor-friendly, code that does a lot
of computation in Nushell itself can be sped up a decent bit. Because
the IR is fairly easy to reason about, we can also implement
optimization passes in the future to eliminate and simplify code.
2. **Correctness.** The instructions mostly have very simple and
easily-specified behavior, so hopefully engine changes are a little bit
easier to reason about, and they can be specified in a more formal way
at some point. I have made an effort to document each of the
instructions in the docs for the enum itself in a reasonably specific
way. Some of the errors that would have happened during evaluation
before are now moved to the compilation step instead, because they don't
make sense to check during evaluation.
3. **As an intermediate target.** This is a good step for us to bring
the [`new-nu-parser`](https://github.com/nushell/new-nu-parser) in at
some point, as code generated from new AST can be directly compared to
code generated from old AST. If the IR code is functionally equivalent,
it will behave the exact same way.
4. **Debugging.** With a little bit more work, we can probably give
control over advancing the virtual machine that `IrBlock`s run on to
some sort of external driver, making things like breakpoints and single
stepping possible. Tools like `view ir` and [`explore
ir`](https://github.com/devyn/nu_plugin_explore_ir) make it easier than
before to see what exactly is going on with your Nushell code.
The goal is to eventually replace the AST evaluator entirely, once we're
sure it's working just as well. You can help dogfood this by running
Nushell with `$env.NU_USE_IR` set to some value. The environment
variable is checked when Nushell starts, so config runs with IR, or it
can also be set on a line at the REPL to change it dynamically. It is
also checked when running `do` in case within a script you want to just
run a specific piece of code with or without IR.
# Example
```nushell
view ir { |data|
mut sum = 0
for n in $data {
$sum += $n
}
$sum
}
```
```gas
# 3 registers, 19 instructions, 0 bytes of data
0: load-literal %0, int(0)
1: store-variable var 904, %0 # let
2: drain %0
3: drop %0
4: load-variable %1, var 903
5: iterate %0, %1, end 15 # for, label(1), from(14:)
6: store-variable var 905, %0
7: load-variable %0, var 904
8: load-variable %2, var 905
9: binary-op %0, Math(Plus), %2
10: span %0
11: store-variable var 904, %0
12: load-literal %0, nothing
13: drain %0
14: jump 5
15: drop %0 # label(0), from(5:)
16: drain %0
17: load-variable %0, var 904
18: return %0
```
# Benchmarks
All benchmarks run on a base model Mac Mini M1.
## Iterative Fibonacci sequence
This is about as best case as possible, making use of the much faster
control flow. Most code will not experience a speed improvement nearly
this large.
```nushell
def fib [n: int] {
mut a = 0
mut b = 1
for _ in 2..=$n {
let c = $a + $b
$a = $b
$b = $c
}
$b
}
use std bench
bench { 0..50 | each { |n| fib $n } }
```

[random-bytes.nu](https://github.com/nushell/nu_scripts/blob/main/benchmarks/random-bytes.nu)
I got pretty random results out of this benchmark so I decided not to
include it. Not clear why.
# User-Facing Changes
- IR compilation errors may appear even if the user isn't evaluating
with IR.
- IR evaluation can be enabled by setting the `NU_USE_IR` environment
variable to any value.
- New command `view ir` pretty-prints the IR for a block, and `view ir
--json` can be piped into an external tool like [`explore
ir`](https://github.com/devyn/nu_plugin_explore_ir).
# Tests + Formatting
All tests are passing with `NU_USE_IR=1`, and I've added some more eval
tests to compare the results for some very core operations. I will
probably want to add some more so we don't have to always check
`NU_USE_IR=1 toolkit test --workspace` on a regular basis.
# After Submitting
- [ ] release notes
- [ ] further documentation of instructions?
- [ ] post-release: publish `nu_plugin_explore_ir`
# Description
Fixes the lexer to recognize `out>|`, `err>|`, `out+err>|`, etc.
Previously only the short-style forms were recognized, which was
inconsistent with normal file redirections.
I also integrated it all more into the normal lex path by checking `|`
in a special way, which should be more performant and consistent, and
cleans up the code a bunch.
Closes#13331.
# User-Facing Changes
- Adds `out>|` (error), `err>|`, `out+err>|`, `err+out>|` as recognized
forms of the pipe redirection.
# Tests + Formatting
All passing. Added tests for the new forms.

The build script is currently re-run on each `cargo build` even when it
has not changed. The `rerun-if-changed` line points to `/build.rs`, but
`build.rs` is actually located at `/scripts/build.rs`. This updates that

# Description
Makes `polars unpivot` use the same arguments as `polars pivot` and
makes it consistent with the polars' rust api. Additionally, support for
the polar's streaming engine has been exposed on eager dataframes.
Previously, it would only work with lazy dataframes.
# User-Facing Changes
* `polars unpivot` argument `--columns`|`-c` has been renamed to
`--index`|`-i`
* `polars unpivot` argument `--values`|`-v` has been renamed to
`--on`|`-o`
* `polars unpivot` short argument for `--streamable` is now `-t` to make
it consistent with `polars pivot`. It was made `-t` for `polars pivot`
because `-s` is short for `--short`

# Description
This PR introduces a new `Signals` struct to replace our adhoc passing
around of `ctrlc: Option<Arc<AtomicBool>>`. Doing so has a few benefits:
- We can better enforce when/where resetting or triggering an interrupt
is allowed.
- Consolidates `nu_utils::ctrl_c::was_pressed` and other ad-hoc
re-implementations into a single place: `Signals::check`.
- This allows us to add other types of signals later if we want. E.g.,
exiting or suspension.
- Similarly, we can more easily change the underlying implementation if
we need to in the future.
- Places that used to have a `ctrlc` of `None` now use
`Signals::empty()`, so we can double check these usages for correctness
in the future.

This is an internal refactoring for `explore`.
Previously, views inside `explore` were created with default/incorrect
configuration and then the correct configuration was passed to them
using a function called `setup()`. I believe this was because
configuration was dynamic and could change while `explore` was running.
After https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/10259, configuration can
no longer be changed on the fly. So we can clean this up by removing
`setup()` and passing configuration to views when they are created.
# Description
Fix `into bits` to have consistent behavior when passed a byte stream.
# User-Facing Changes
Previously, it was returning a binary on stream, even though its
input/output types don't describe this possibility. We don't need this

fixed#12699
When bare dates or naive times are specified in toml files, `from toml`
returns invalid dates or times.
This PR fixes the problem to correctly handle toml datetime.
The current version command returns the default datetime
(`chrono::DateTime::default()`) if the datetime parse fails. However, I
felt that this behavior was a bit unfriendly, so I changed it to return
`Value::string`.
# User-Facing Changes
The command returns a date with default time and timezone if a bare date
is specified.
```

# Description
Bug fix: `PipelineData::check_external_failed()` was not preserving the
original `type_` and `known_size` attributes of the stream passed in for
streams that come from children, so `external-command | into binary` did
not work properly and always ended up still being unknown type.
# User-Facing Changes
The following test case now works as expected:
```nushell
> head -c 2 /dev/urandom | into binary
# Expected: pretty hex dump of binary
# Previous behavior: just raw binary in the terminal
```

Added a test to cover this to `into binary`

Exotic types like `Duration` and `Filesize` return a float on division
by the same type, i.e., the unit is gone since division results in a
scalar. When using the modulo operator, the output type has the same
unit.
# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->
Division results in a float like the following:
```sh
~/Public/nushell> 512sec / 3sec
170.66666666666666
```
Modulo results in an output with the same unit:
```sh
~/Public/nushell> 512sec mod 3sec
2sec
```
Type checking isn't confused with output types:
```sh
~/Public/nushell> (512sec mod 3sec) / 0.5sec
4
```

This PR fixes an issue with `explore` where you can "drill down" into
the same value forever. For example:
1. Run `ls | explore`
2. Press Enter to enter cursor mode
3. Press Enter again to open the selected string in a new layer
4. Press Enter again to open that string in a new layer
5. Press Enter again to open that string in a new layer
6. Repeat and eventually you have a bajillion layers open with the same
string
IMO it only makes sense to "drill down" into lists and records.
In a separate commit I also did a little refactoring, cleaning up naming
and comments.
# Description
Fixes: #13189
The issue is caused `error make` returns a `Value::Errror`, and when
nushell pass it to `table -e` in `std help`, it directly stop and render
the error message.
To solve it, I think it's safe to make these examples return None
directly, it doesn't change the reult of `help error make`.
# User-Facing Changes

This PR fixes the problem pointed out in
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/13204, where the Fish-like
completions aren't sorted properly (this PR doesn't close that issue
because the author there wants more than just fixed sort order).
The cause is all of the file/directory completions being fetched first
and then sorted all together while being treated as strings. Instead,
this PR sorts completions within each individual directory, avoiding
treating `/` as part of the path.
To do this, I removed the `sort` method from the completer trait (as
well as `get_sort_by`) and made all completers sort within the `fetch`
method itself. A generic `sort_completions` helper has been added to
sort lists of completions, and a more specific `sort_suggestions` helper
has been added to sort `Vec<Suggestion>`s.
As for the actual change that fixes the sort order for file/directory
completions, the `complete_rec` helper now sorts the children of each
directory before visiting their children. The file and directory
completers don't bother sorting at the end (except to move hidden files
down).
To reviewers: don't let the 29 changed files scare you, most of those
are just the test fixtures :)

# Description
With #13254, the content-type pipeline metadata field was added. This
pull request allows it to be manipulated with `metadata set`
# User-Facing Changes
* `metadata set` now has a `--content-type` flag
# Description
Provides the ability to use http commands as part of a pipeline.
Additionally, this pull requests extends the pipeline metadata to add a
content_type field. The content_type metadata field allows commands such
as `to json` to set the metadata in the pipeline allowing the http
commands to use it when making requests.
This pull request also introduces the ability to directly stream http
requests from streaming pipelines.
One other small change is that Content-Type will always be set if it is
passed in to the http commands, either indirectly or throw the content
type flag. Previously it was not preserved with requests that were not
of type json or form data.
# User-Facing Changes
* `http post`, `http put`, `http patch`, `http delete` can be used as
part of a pipeline
* `to text`, `to json`, `from json` all set the content_type metadata
field and the http commands will utilize them when making requests.
# Description
I introduced a regression in #13272 that resulted in `detect columns
--guess` to panic whenever it had to handle empty, whitespace-only, or
non-whitespace-only lines that go all the way to the last column (and as
such, cannot be considered to be lines that only have entries for the
first colum). I fix this by detecting these cases and skipping them,
since these are usually decoration lines. An example is the second line
output by `winget list`:
![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/20356389/06c873fb-0a26-45dd-b020-3bcc737d027f)
What we don't want to skip, however, is lines that contain no
whitespace, and fit into the detected first column, since these lines
represent cases where data is only available for the first column, and
are not just decoration lines. For example (made up example, there are
no such entries in `winget lits`'s output), in this output we would not
want to skip the `Docker Desktop` line :
```
Name Id Version Available Source

![image](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/assets/20356389/12e31995-a7c1-4759-8c62-fb4fb199fd2e)
NOTE: `winget list | detect columns --guess` does not panic, but sadly
still does not work as expected. I believe this is not a nushell issue
anymore, but a `winget` one. When being piped, `winget` seems to add
extra whitespace and random `\r` symbols at the beginning of the text.
This messes with the column detection, of course.

# User-Facing Changes
`detect columns --guess` should not panic when receiving output from
`winget list` at all anymore.
A breaking change is the skipping of decoration lines, especially since
scripts probably were doing something like
`winget list | lines | reject 1 | str join "\n" | detect columns
--guess`. This will now cause them to reject a line with valid data.

Recommend holding until after #13125 is fully digested and *possibly*
until 0.96.
# Description
Fixes one of the issues described in #13125
The `do` signature included a `SyntaxShape:Any` as one of the possible
first-positional types. This is incorrect. `do` only takes a closure as
a positional. This had the result of:
1. Moving what should have been a parser error to evaluation-time
## Before
```nu
> do 1
Error: nu:🐚:cant_convert
× Can't convert to Closure.
╭─[entry #26:1:4]
1 │ do 1
· ┬
· ╰── can't convert int to Closure
╰────
```
## After
```nu
> do 1
Error: nu::parser::parse_mismatch
× Parse mismatch during operation.
╭─[entry #5:1:4]
1 │ do 1
· ┬
· ╰── expected block, closure or record
╰────
```
2. Masking a bad test in `std assert`
This is a bit convoluted, but `std assert` tests included testing
`assert error` to make sure it:
* Asserts on bad code
* Doesn't assert on good code
The good-code test was broken, and was essentially bad-code (really
bad-code) that wasn't getting caught due to the bad signature.
Fixing this resulted in *parse time* failures on every call to
`test_asserts` (not something that particular test was designed to
handle.
This PR also fixes the test case to properly evaluate `std assert error`
against a good code path.

[`webpage`](https://crates.io/crates/webpage) crate.
Usage:
```
http get https://phoronix.com | query webpage-info
```
and it returns a `Record` version of
[`webpage::HTML`](https://docs.rs/webpage/latest/webpage/struct.HTML.html).
The PR also takes a shot at bringing @lily-mara 's
[nu-serde::to_value](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/3878/files)
back to life, updating it for the latest version of nushell. That's not
the main focus of the PR though - I just didn't want to have to
implement a custom converter for `webpage::HTML` 😅. If it looks
reasonable we could move it to `nu_protocol`(?) either in this PR or a
future one (along with adding tests for it).
# User-Facing Changes
no breaking changes
# Description
Sometimes it's helpful to deal with only ASCII. This command will take a
unicode string as input and convert it to ASCII using the deunicode
crate.
```nushell
❯ "A…B" | str deunicode
A...B
```

This PR fixes#13269. The splitting code in `guess_width.rs` was
creating slices from char indices, instead of byte indices. This works
perfectly fine for 1-byte code points, but panics or returns wrong
results as soon as multibyte codepoints appear in the input. I
originally discovered this by piping `winget list` into `detect columns
--guess`, since winget sometimes uses the unicode ellipsis symbol (`…`)
which is 3 bytes long when encoded in utf-8.

# Description
The standard library's `path add` function has some surprising side
effects that I attempt to address in this PR:
1. Paths added, if they are symbolic links, should not be resolved to
their targets. Currently, resolution happens.
Imagine the following:
```nu
# Some time earlier, perhaps even not by the user, a symlink is created
mkdir real-dir
ln -s real-dir link-dir
# Then, step to now, with link-dir that we want in our PATHS variable
use std
path add link-dir
```
In the current implementation of `path add`, it is _not_ `link-dir` that
will be added, as has been stated in the command. It is instead
`real-dir`. This is surprising. Users have the agency to do this
resolution if they wish with `path expand` (sans a `--no-symlink` flag):
for example, `path add (link-dir | path expand)`
In particular, when I was trying to set up
[fnm](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm), a Node.js version manager, I was
bitten by this fact when `fnm` told me that an expected path had not
been added to the PATHS variable. It was looking for the non-resolved
link. The user in [this
comment](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm/issues/463#issuecomment-1710050737)
was likely affected by this too.
Shells, such as nushell, can handle path symlinks just fine. Binary
lookup is unaffected. Let resolution be opt-in.
Lastly, there is some convention already in place for **not** resolving
path symlinks in the [default $env.ENV_CONVERSIONS
table](57452337ff/crates/nu-utils/src/sample_config/default_env.nu (L65)).
2. All existing paths in the path variable should be left untouched.
Currently, they are `path expand`-ed (including symbolic link
resolution).
Path add should mean just that: prepend/append this path.
Instead, it currently means that, _plus mutate all other paths in the
variable_.
Again, users have the agency to do this with something like `$env.PATH =
$env.PATH | split row (char esep) | path expand`.
3. Minorly, I update documentation on running tests in
`crates/nu-std/CONTRIBUTING.md`. The offered command to run the standard
library test suite was no longer functional. Thanks to @weirdan in [this
Discord
conversation](https://discord.com/channels/601130461678272522/614593951969574961/1256029201119576147)
for the context.
# User-Facing Changes
(Written from the perspective of release notes)
- The standard library's `path add` function no longer resolves symlinks
in either the newly added paths, nor the other paths already in the
variable.
# Tests + Formatting
A test for the changes working correctly has been added to
`crates/nu-std/tests/test_std.nu` under the test named
`path_add_expand`.
You can quickly verify this new test and the existing `path add` test
with the following command:
```nu
cargo run -- -c 'use crates/nu-std/testing.nu; NU_LOG_LEVEL=INFO testing run-tests --path crates/nu-std --test path_add'
```
All commands suggested in the issue template have been run and complete
without error.
# After Submitting
I'll add a release note to [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the
PR is merged.
# Description
Allows specifying multiple attributes to retrieve from the selected
nodes. E.g. you may want to select both hrefs and targets from the list
of links:
```nushell
.... | query web --query a --attribute [href target]
```
# User-Facing Changes
`query web --attribute` previously accepted a string. Now it accepts
either a string or a list of strings.
The shape definition for this flag was relaxed temporarily, until
nushell/nushell#13253 is fixed.
# Description
Upgrading to Polars 0.41
# User-Facing Changes
* `polars melt` has been renamed to `polars unpivot` to match the change
in the polars API. Additionally, it now supports lazy dataframes.
Introduced a `--streamable` option to use the polars streaming engine
for lazy frames.
* The parameter `outer` has been replaced with `full` in `polars join`
to match polars change.
* `polars value-count` now supports the column (rename count column),
parallelize (multithread), sort, and normalize options.
The list of polars changes can be found
[here](https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/releases/tag/rs-0.41.2)
# Description
This might help @hustcer debug problems with `setup-nu`. The error
messages with the file I/O in `modify_plugin_file()` are not currently
not specific about what file path was involved in the I/O operation.
The spans on those errors have also changed to the span of the custom
path if provided.
# User-Facing Changes
- Slightly better error
