# Description This PR creates a new `Record` type to reduce duplicate code and possibly bugs as well. (This is an edited version of #9648.) - `Record` implements `FromIterator` and `IntoIterator` and so can be iterated over or collected into. For example, this helps with conversions to and from (hash)maps. (Also, no more `cols.iter().zip(vals)`!) - `Record` has a `push(col, val)` function to help insure that the number of columns is equal to the number of values. I caught a few potential bugs thanks to this (e.g. in the `ls` command). - Finally, this PR also adds a `record!` macro that helps simplify record creation. It is used like so: ```rust record! { "key1" => some_value, "key2" => Value::string("text", span), "key3" => Value::int(optional_int.unwrap_or(0), span), "key4" => Value::bool(config.setting, span), } ``` Since macros hinder formatting, etc., the right hand side values should be relatively short and sweet like the examples above. Where possible, prefer `record!` or `.collect()` on an iterator instead of multiple `Record::push`s, since the first two automatically set the record capacity and do less work overall. # User-Facing Changes Besides the changes in `nu-protocol` the only other breaking changes are to `nu-table::{ExpandedTable::build_map, JustTable::kv_table}`. |
