# Description
While #11057 is merged, it's hard to tell the difference between
`--flag: bool` and `--flag`, and it makes user hard to read custom
commands' signature, and hard to use them correctly.
After discussion, I think we can deprecate `--flag: bool` usage, and
encourage using `--flag` instead.
# User-Facing Changes
The following code will raise warning message, but don't stop from
running.
```nushell
❯ def florb [--dry-run: bool, --another-flag] { "aaa" }; florb
Error: × Deprecated: --flag: bool
╭─[entry #7:1:1]

· ╰── `--flag: bool` is deprecated. Please use `--flag` instead, more info: https://www.nushell.sh/book/custom_commands.html

# Tests + Formatting
Done
# After Submitting
- [ ] Add more information under
https://www.nushell.sh/book/custom_commands.html to indicate `--dry-run:
bool` is not allowed,
- [ ] remove `: bool` from custom commands between 0.89 and 0.90

# Description
Our config exists both as a `Config` struct for internal consumption and
as a `Value`. The latter is exposed through `$env.config` and can be
both set and read.
Thus we have a complex bug-prone mechanism, that reads a `Value` and
then tries to plug anything where the value is unrepresentable in
`Config` with the correct state from `Config`.
The parsing involves therefore mutation of the `Value` in a nested
`Record` structure. Previously this was wholy done manually, with
indices.
To enable deletion for example, things had to be iterated over from the
back. Also things were indexed in a bunch of places. This was hard to
read and an invitation for bugs.
With #10876 we can now use `Record::retain_mut` to traverse the records,
modify anything that needs fixing, and drop invalid fields.
# Parts:
- Error messages now consistently use the correct spans pointing to the
problematic value and the paths displayed in some messages are also
aligned with the keys used for lookup.
- Reconstruction of values has been fixed for:
- `table.padding`
- `buffer_editor`
- `hooks.command_not_found`
- `datetime_format` (partial solution)
- Fix validation of `table.padding` input so value is not set (and
underflows `usize` causing `table` to run forever with negative values)
- New proper types for settings. Fully validated enums instead of
strings:
- `config.edit_mode` -> `EditMode`
- Don't fall back to vi-mode on invalid string
- `config.table.mode` -> `TableMode`
- there is still a fall back to `rounded` if given an invalid
`TableMode` as argument to the `nu` binary
- `config.completions.algorithm` -> `CompletionAlgorithm`
- `config.error_style` -> `ErrorStyle`
- don't implicitly fall back to `fancy` when given an invalid value.
- This should also shrink the size of `Config` as instead of 4x24 bytes
those fields now need only 4x1 bytes in `Config`
- Completely removed macros relying on the scope of `Value::into_config`
so we can break it up into smaller parts in the future.
- Factored everything into smaller files with the types and helpers for
particular topics.
- `NuCursorShape` now explicitly expresses the `Inherit` setting.
conversion to option only happens at the interface to `reedline`
# Description
Part of the larger cratification effort.
Moves all `reedline` or shell line editor specific commands to `nu-cli`.
## From `nu-cmd-lang`:
- `commandline`
- This shouldn't have moved there. Doesn't directly depend on reedline
but assumes parts in the engine state that are specific to the use of
reedline or a REPL
## From `nu-command`:
- `keybindings` and subcommands
- `keybindings default`
- `keybindings list`
- `keybindings listen`
- very `reedline` specific
- `history`
- needs `reedline`
- `history session`
## internal use
Instead of having a separate `create_default_context()` that calls
`nu-command`'s `create_default_context()`, I added a `add_cli_context()`
that updates an `EngineState`
# User-Facing Changes
None
## Build time comparison
`cargo build --timings` from a `cargo clean --profile dev`
### total
main: 64 secs
this: 59 secs
### `nu-command` build time
branch | total| codegen | fraction
---|---|---|---
main | 14.0s | 6.2s | (44%)
this | 12.5s | 5.5s | (44%)
`nu-cli` depends on `nu-command` at the moment.
Thus it is built during the code-gen phase of `nu-command` (on 16
virtual cores)
# Tests + Formatting
I removed the `test_example()` facilities for now as we had not run any
of the commands in an `Example` test and importing the right context for
those tests seemed more of a hassle than the duplicated
`test_examples()` implementations in `nu-cmd-lang` and `nu-command`
