# Description While we have now a few ways to add items or iterate over the collection, we don't have a way to cleanly remove items from `Record`. This PR fixes that: - Add `Record.remove()` to remove by key - makes the assumption that keys are unique, so can not be used universally, yet (see #10875 for an important example) - Add naive `Record.retain()` for inplace removal - This follows the two separate `retain`/`retain_mut` in the Rust std library types, compared to the value-mutating `retain` in `indexmap` - Add `Record.retain_mut()` for one-pass pruning Continuation of #10841 # User-Facing Changes None yet. # Tests + Formatting Doctests for the `retain`ing fun
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
