# Description Pre-cratification of `nu-command` we added tests that covered the whole command set to ensure consistent documentation style choices and that the search terms which are added are not uselessly redundant. These tests are now moved into the suite of the main binary to truly cover all commands. - **Move parser quickcheck "fuzz" to `nu-cmd-lang`** - **Factor out creation of full engine state for tests** - **Move all-command tests to main context creation** - **Fix all descriptions** - **Fix search term duplicate** # User-Facing Changes As a result I had to fix a few command argument descriptions. (Doesn't mean I fully stand behind this choice, but) positionals (rest/required/optional) and top level descriptions should start with a capital letter and end with a period. This is not enforced for flags. # Tests + Formatting Furthermore I moved our poor-peoples-fuzzer that runs in CI with `quicktest` over the parser to `nu-cmd-lang` reducing its command set to just the keywords (similar to https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/15036). Thus this should also run slightly faster (maybe a slight parallel build cost due to earlier dependency on quicktest)
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.
