In my view we should revert nushell/nushell#8395 for now
## Potentially inconsistent application of semantic change
#8395 (1d5e7b441b) was loosening the type
coercion rules significantly, to let missing data / void returns that
were either expressed by `PipelineData::Empty` or the `Value::nothing`
be accept by specifically those commands/operations that made use of
`PipelineData::into_iter_strict()`. This could apply the new rules
inconsistently.
## Turning explicit failures into silent continuations
Furthermore the effect of this breaking change to the missing data
semantics could make previous errors into silent failures.
This could either just reduce the effectiveness of teaching error
messages in interactive use:
### Contrived example before
```bash
> cd . | where blah
Error: nu:🐚:only_supports_this_input_type
× Input type not supported.
╭─[entry #13:1:1]
1 │ cd . | where blah
· ──┬──┬
· │ ╰── input type: null
· ╰── only list, binary, raw data or range input data is supported
╰────
```
### ...after, with #8395
```bash
> cd . | where blah
╭────────────╮
│ empty list │
╰────────────╯
```
In rare cases people could already try to rely on catching an error of a
downstream command to actually deal with the missing data, so it would
be a breaking change for their existing code.
## Problem with `PipelineData::into_iter_strict()`
Maybe this makes `_strict` a bit of a misnomer for this particular
iterator construction.
Further we did not actively test the `PipelineData::empty` branch before
## Parsimonious solution exists
For the motivating issue https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/8393
there already exists a fix that makes `ls` more consistent with the type
system by returning an empty `Value::List`
https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/8439
# Description
This allows empty pipelines to pass their emptiness through a filter.
This helps fix issues like trying to run a filter on an `ls` in an empty
directory. It also feels a bit more reasonable that a filter filters
what is *there* but doesn't require something to be there.
fixes#8393
# User-Facing Changes
No breaking changes (that I know of). Should allow filtering to be a
little less surprising with emptiness.
# Tests + Formatting
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used -A
clippy::needless_collect` to check that you're using the standard code
style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass

This PR just tidies up some tests by removing unused code:
1. If the filesystem is not touched, don't use the filesystem
playground/sandbox
2. If the filesystem is not touched, don't specify the `cwd`
3. If the command is short, don't bother wrapping it in `pipeline()`
4. If the command doesn't have quotes, don't bother with a `r#"..."#`
raw string
Part of #8670.
Prior to this PR, the less/greater than operators (`<`, `>`, `<=`, `>=`)
would throw an error if either side was null. After this PR, these
operators return null if either side (or both) is null.
### Examples
```bash
1 < 3 # true
1 < null # null
null < 3 # null
null < null # null
```
### Motivation
JT [asked the C#
folks](https://discord.com/channels/601130461678272522/615329862395101194/1086137515053957140)
and this is apparently the approach they would choose for comparison
operators if they could start from scratch.
This PR makes `where` more convenient to use on jagged/missing data. For
example, we can now filter on columns that may not be present in every
row:
```
> [{foo: 123} {}] | where foo? > 10
╭───┬─────╮
│ # │ foo │
├───┼─────┤
│ 0 │ 123 │
╰───┴─────╯
```
# Description
As title, closes: #7921closes: #8273
# User-Facing Changes
when define a closure without pipe, nushell will raise error for now:
```
❯ let x = {ss ss}
Error: nu::parser::closure_missing_pipe
× Missing || inside closure
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ let x = {ss ss}
· ───┬───
· ╰── Parsing as a closure, but || is missing
╰────
help: Try add || to the beginning of closure
```
`any`, `each`, `all`, `where` command accepts closure, it forces user
input closure like `{||`, or parse error will returned.
```
❯ {major:2, minor:1, patch:4} | values | each { into string }
Error: nu::parser::closure_missing_pipe
× Missing || inside closure
╭─[entry #4:1:1]
1 │ {major:2, minor:1, patch:4} | values | each { into string }
· ───────┬───────
· ╰── Parsing as a closure, but || is missing
╰────
help: Try add || to the beginning of closure
```
`with-env`, `do`, `def`, `try` are special, they still remain the same,
although it says that it accepts a closure, but they don't need to be
written like `{||`, it's more likely a block but can capture variable
outside of scope:
```
❯ def test [input] { echo [0 1 2] | do { do { echo $input } } }; test aaa
aaa
```
Just realize that It's a big breaking change, we need to update config
and scripts...

Please provide feedback if you have the time!
## Summary
This PR lets you use `?` to indicate that a member in a cell path is
optional and Nushell should return `null` if that member cannot be
accessed.
Unlike the previous PR, `?` is now a _postfix_ modifier for cell path
members. A cell path of `.foo?.bar` means that `foo` is optional and
`bar` is not.
`?` does _not_ suppress all errors; it is intended to help in situations
where data has "holes", i.e. the data types are correct but something is
missing. Type mismatches (like trying to do a string path access on a
date) will still fail.
### Record Examples
```bash
{ foo: 123 }.foo # returns 123
{ foo: 123 }.bar # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar? # returns null
{ foo: 123 } | get bar # errors
{ foo: 123 } | get bar? # returns null
{ foo: 123 }.bar.baz # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar?.baz # errors because `baz` is not present on the result from `bar?`
{ foo: 123 }.bar.baz? # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar?.baz? # returns null
```
### List Examples
```
〉[{foo: 1} {foo: 2} {}].foo
Error: nu:🐚:column_not_found
× Cannot find column
╭─[entry #30:1:1]
1 │ [{foo: 1} {foo: 2} {}].foo
· ─┬ ─┬─
· │ ╰── cannot find column 'foo'
· ╰── value originates here
╰────
〉[{foo: 1} {foo: 2} {}].foo?
╭───┬───╮
│ 0 │ 1 │
│ 1 │ 2 │
│ 2 │ │
╰───┴───╯
〉[{foo: 1} {foo: 2} {}].foo?.2 | describe
nothing
〉[a b c].4? | describe
nothing
〉[{foo: 1} {foo: 2} {}] | where foo? == 1
╭───┬─────╮
│ # │ foo │
├───┼─────┤
│ 0 │ 1 │
╰───┴─────╯
```
# Breaking changes
1. Column names with `?` in them now need to be quoted.
2. The `-i`/`--ignore-errors` flag has been removed from `get` and
`select`
1. After this PR, most `get` error handling can be done with `?` and/or
`try`/`catch`.
4. Cell path accesses like this no longer work without a `?`:
```bash
〉[{a:1 b:2} {a:3}].b.0
2
```
We had some clever code that was able to recognize that since we only
want row `0`, it's OK if other rows are missing column `b`. I removed
that because it's tricky to maintain, and now that query needs to be
written like:
```bash
〉[{a:1 b:2} {a:3}].b?.0
2
```
I think the regression is acceptable for now. I plan to do more work in
the future to enable streaming of cell path accesses, and when that
happens I'll be able to make `.b.0` work again.
# Description
Remove `--numbered` from ~~`for`~~, `each`, `par-each`, `reduce` and
`each while`. These all provide indexes (numbering) via the optional
second param to their closures.
EDIT: Closes#6986.
# User-Facing Changes
Every command that had `--numbered` listed as "deprecated" in their help
docs is affected.

fix#7858
Once again we here 😞
~~I am thinking is there some files with not flat structure we could use
to test table -e?
I mean it is clear it was a while ago were we had to create at least
some tests.
Do you have anything in mind (or maybe commands which is consistent
across systems)?~~
Take care

# Description
This PR moves the `where` command to a parser keyword. While it still
uses the shape-directed parsing dictated by the signature, we're free to
change the parsing code now to a custom one once we remove the syntax
shapes.
As a side effect, the `where -b` flag was removed and its functionality
has moved to the new `filter` command.
Just FYI, other commands that take row conditions:
- `take until`
- `take while`
- `skip until`
- `skip while`
- `any`
- `all`
We can either move these to the parser as well or make them accept a
closure instead of row condition.
# User-Facing Changes
New `filter` command which replaces `where -b` functionality.

Following up on #7180 with some feature cleanup:
- Move the `database` feature from `plugin` to `default`
- Rename the `database` feature to `sqlite`
- Remove `--features=extra` from a lot of scripts etc.
- No need to specify this, the `extra` feature is now the same as the
default feature set
- Remove the now-redundant 2nd Ubuntu test run
Alters `all`, `any`, `each while`, `each`, `insert`, `par-each`, `reduce`, `update`, `upsert` and `where`,
so that their blocks take an optional parameter containing the index.
* Remove unnecessary `#[allow]` annots
Reduce the number of lint exceptions that are not necessary with the
current state of the code (or more recent toolchain)
* Remove dead code from `FileStructure` in nu-command
* Replace `allow(unused)` with relevant feature switch
* Deal with `needless_collect` with annotations
* Change hack for needless_collect in `from json`
This change obviates the need for `allow(needless_collect)`
Removes a pessimistic allocation for empty strings, but increases
allocation size to `Value`
Probably not really worth it.
* Revert "Deal with `needless_collect` with annotations"
This reverts commit 05aca98445.
The previous state seems to better from a performance perspective as a
`Vec<String>` is lighter weight than `Vec<Value>`
* database commands
* db commands
* filesystem opens sqlite file
* clippy error
* corrected error in ci file
* removes matrix flag from ci
* flax matrix for clippy
* add conditional compile for tests
* add conditional compile for tests
* correct order of command
* correct error msg
* correct typo
* update docs to refer to length instead of count
* rename count to length
* change all occurrences of 'count' to 'length' in tests
* format length command
* 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
