* Add rest arg to def
This commit applied adds the ability to define the rest parameter of a def
command. It does not implement the functionality to expand the rest argument in
a user defined def function.
The rest argument has to be exactly worded "...rest".
Example after this PR is applied:
file test.nu
```shell
def my_command [
...rest:int # My rest arg
] {
echo 1 2 3
}
```
```shell
> source test.nu
> my_command -h
Usage:
> my_command ...args {flags}
Parameters:
...args: My rest arg
Flags:
-h, --help: Display this help message
```
* Fix space in help on wrong side

* 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

* Put parse_definition related funcs into own module
* Add failing lexer test
* Implement Parsing of definition signature
This commit applied changes how the signature of a function is parsed. Before
there was a little bit of "quick-and-dirty" string-matching/parsing involved.
Now, a signature is a little bit more properly parsed.
The grammar of a definition signature understood by these parsing-functions is
as follows:
`[ (parameter | flag | <eol>)* ]`
where
parameter is:
`name (<:> type)? (<,> | <eol> | (#Comment <eol>))?`
flag is:
`--name (-shortform)? (<:> type)? (<,> | <eol> | (#Comment <eol>))?`
(Note: After the last item no <,> has to come.)
Note: It is now possible to pass comments to flags and parameters
Example:
[
d:int # The required d parameter
--x (-x):string # The all powerful x flag
--y (-y):int # The accompanying y flag
]
(Sadly there seems to be a bug (Or is this expected behaviour?) in the lexer, because of which `--x(-x)` would
be treated as one baseline token and is therefore not correctly recognized as 2. For
now a space has to be inserted)
During the implementation of the module, 2 question arose:
Should flag/parameter names be allowed to be type names?
Example case:
```shell
def f [ string ] { echo $string }
```
Currently an error is thrown
* Fix clippy lints
* Remove wrong comment
* Add spacing
* Add Cargo.lock
This commit applied adds comments preceding a command to the LiteCommands new
field `comments`.
This can be usefull for example when defining a function with `def`. Nushell
could pick up the comments and display them when the user types `help my_def_func`.
Example
```shell
def my_echo [arg] { echo $arg }
```
The LiteCommand def will now contain the comments `My echo` and `It's much
better :)`.
The comment is not associated with the next command if there is a (or multiple) newline
between them.
Example
```shell
echo 42
```
This new functionality is similar to DocStrings. One might introduce a special
notation for such DocStrings, so that the parser can differentiate better
between discardable comments and usefull documentation.
* Update dependencies
* Document the lexer and lightly improve its names
The bulk of this pull request adds a substantial amount of new inline
documentation for the lexer. Along the way, I made a few minor changes
to the names in the lexer, most of which were internal.
The main change that affects other files is renaming `group` to `block`,
since the function is actually parsing a block (a list of groups).
* Fix rustfmt
* Update lock

Previously everything starting with "$" was parsed as a column path.
With this commit applied, the lite_arg starting with $ is parsed as
the most appropriate thing
- $true/$false ==> Expression::Boolean
- $(...) ==> Invocation
- $it ==> ColumnPath
- Anything with at least one '.' ==> ColumnPath
- Anything else ==> Variable
* Ignore failing tests
* Implement exclusive and inclusive ranges with .. and ..=
This commit adds right-exclusive ranges.
The original a..b inclusive syntax was changed to reflect the Rust notation.
New a..=b syntax was introduced to have the old behavior.
Currently, both a.. and b..= is valid, and it is unclear whether it's valid
to impose restrictions.
The original issue suggests .. for inclusive and ..< for exclusive ranges,
this can be implemented by making simple changes to this commit.
* Fix collect tests by changing ranges to ..=
* Fix clippy lints in exclusive range matching
* Implement exclusive ranges using `..<`
* remove unused dependencies
* moved umask to cfg(unix)
* changed Inflector to inflector, hoping it fixes the issue.
* roll back Inflector
* removed commented out deps now that everything looks good.
