[MVP][WIP] less like pager (#6984)
Run it as `explore`. #### example ```nu ls | explore ``` Configuration points in `config.nu` file. ``` # A 'explore' utility config explore_config: { highlight: { bg: 'yellow', fg: 'black' } status_bar: { bg: '#C4C9C6', fg: '#1D1F21' } command_bar: { fg: '#C4C9C6' } split_line: '#404040' cursor: true # selected_column: 'blue' # selected_row: { fg: 'yellow', bg: '#C1C2A3' } # selected_cell: { fg: 'white', bg: '#777777' } # line_shift: false, # line_index: false, # line_head_top: false, # line_head_bottom: false, } ``` You can start without a pipeline and type `explore` and it'll give you a few tips. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205088971-a8c0262f-f222-4641-b13a-027fbd4f5e1a.png) If you type `:help` you an see the help screen with some information on what tui keybindings are available. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205089461-c4c54217-7ec4-4fa0-96c0-643d68dc0062.png) From the `:help` screen you can now hit `i` and that puts you in `cursor` aka `inspection` mode and you can move the cursor left right up down and it you put it on an area such as `[table 5 rows]` and hit the enter key, you'll see something like this, which shows all the `:` commands. If you hit `esc` it will take you to the previous screen. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205090155-3558a14b-87b7-4072-8dfb-dc8cc2ef4943.png) If you then type `:try` you'll get this type of window where you can type in the top portion and see results in the bottom. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205089185-3c065551-0792-43d6-a13c-a52762856209.png) The `:nu` command is interesting because you can type pipelines like `:nu ls | sort-by type size` or another pipeline of your choosing such as `:nu sys` and that will show the table that looks like this, which we're calling "table mode". ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205090809-e686ff0f-6d0b-4347-8ed0-8c59adfbd741.png) If you hit the `t` key it will now transpose the view to look like this. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205090948-a834d7f2-1713-4dfe-92fe-5432f287df3d.png) In table mode or transposed table mode you can use the `i` key to inspect any collapsed field like `{record 8 fields}`, `[table 16 rows]`, `[list x]`, etc. One of the original benefits was that when you're in a view that has a lot of columns, `explore` gives you the ability to scroll left, right, up, and down. `explore` is also smart enough to know when you're in table mode versus preview mode. If you do `open Cargo.toml | explore` you get this. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205091822-cac79130-3a52-4ca8-9210-eba5be30ed58.png) If you type `open --raw Cargo.toml | explore` you get this where you can scroll left, right, up, down. This is called preview mode. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205091990-69455191-ab78-4fea-a961-feafafc16d70.png) When you're in table mode, you can also type `:preview`. So, with `open --raw Cargo.toml | explore`, if you type `:preview`, it will look like this. ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/343840/205092569-436aa55a-0474-48d5-ab71-baddb1f43027.png) Signed-off-by: Maxim Zhiburt <zhiburt@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Darren Schroeder <343840+fdncred@users.noreply.github.com> |
