* Mitigate history file bug in Rustyline
Rustyline's duplicate ignoring code has a bug that can cause data loss and
history file corruption. Testing seems to indicate that disabling this behavior
and allowing duplicates will prevent the bug from showing up. Many people have
complained about this issue, I think it is worthwhile to fix the bug at the cost
of permitting duplicate history entries.
Upstream bug: https://github.com/kkawakam/rustyline/issues/559
* Increase Rustyline historyfile limit
Rustyline will only store 100 history items by default. This is quite a small
limit for a shell that people use as a daily driver. Especially when the
deduplication code is removed, we will hit that limit quickly and start to lose
history. This commit bumps the limit up to 10k. We can discuss if this is an
inappropriate limit or if we should allow users to specify this setting in their
nushell config file instead.
Seems we do `ctrl` feature checks in `nu-cli` and `nu-command`. We should find a better way to report the enabled features un the `version` command without using the conditionals (or somewhere else)
In Nu we have variables (E.g. $var-name) and these contain `Value` types.
This means we can bind to variables any structured data and column path syntax
(E.g. `$variable.path.to`) allows flexibility for "querying" said structures.
Here we offer completions for these. For example, in a Nushell session the
variable `$nu` contains environment values among other things. If we wanted to
see in the screen some environment variable (say the var `SHELL`) we do:
```
> echo $nu.env.SHELL
```
with completions we can now do: `echo $nu.env.S[\TAB]` and we get suggestions
that start at the column path `$nu.env` with vars starting with the letter `S`
in this case `SHELL` appears in the suggestions.
We've relied on `clap` for building our cli app bootstrapping that figures out the positionals, flags, and other convenient facilities. Nu has been capable of solving this problem for quite some time. Given this and much more reasons (including the build time caused by `clap`) we start here working with our own.
* enable theming of the command line syntax
* added missing flatshape, sorted flatshapes for easier reading.
* sorted flat shapes again and saved it this time
* added sample rwb.json syntax them file to docs
If nu fails to load a user config on startup, no helper is set and the
later call to `rl.helper_mut()` will panic. There may be better ways to
handle this long-term, but printing an error about the failure to parse
the config and then starting with default values seems reasonable.
* add nu-pretty-hex, add into binary, update binaryview
* updated parameter name, updated examples
* fixed nu-pretty-hex test
* fixed tests again! and added a no color option to pretty-hex
With the current code it is possible to attach custom commands from
a custom binary, but only for interactive mode. This change makes
it possible to also customize the evaluation context for commands
and scripts.
* Use ctx.configs in all config commands
* Remove all setting/accessing of vars.("config-path")
* Add tests
* Add comment
* Reload cfg on remove
* Hypocratic ws change
* Use history_path in hist_or_default
* Make clippy happy
* Fix rebase stuff
* Fix clippy lint
Before storing an entry into the history nushell will check if the entry
consists only of whitespaces and if so, it does not store it in the history and
this avoids newline repetition when user is navigating in the history.
* Revert "History, more test coverage improvements, and refactorings. (#3217)"
This reverts commit 8fc8fc89aa.
* Add tests
* Refactor .nu-env
* Change logic of Config write to logic of read()
* Fix reload always appends to old vars
* Fix reload always takes last_modified of global config
* Add reload_config in evaluation context
* Reload config after writing to it in cfg set / cfg set_into
* Add --no-history to cli options
* Use --no-history in tests
* Add comment about maybe_print_errors
* Get ctrl_exit var from context.global_config
* Use context.global_config in command "config"
* Add Readme in engine how env vars are now handled
* Update docs from autoenv command
* Move history_path from engine to nu_data
* Move load history out of if
* No let before return
* Add import for indexmap
Improvements overall to Nu. Also among the changes here, we can also be more confident towards incorporating `3041`. End to end tests for checking envs properly exported to externals is not added here (since it's in the other PR)
A few things added in this PR (probably forgetting some too)
* no writes happen to history during test runs.
* environment syncing end to end coverage added.
* clean up / refactorings few areas.
* testing API for finer control (can write tests passing more than one pipeline)
* can pass environment variables in tests that nu will inherit when running.
* No longer needed.
* no longer under a module. No need to use super.
the initial setup-commands of nushell were executed without loading environment variables
this resulted in the PATH not being available at this point until an external command was run once
which resulted in env_vars being added
let run_result = run_block(&prompt_block, &context, InputStream::empty()).await;

While the "main" separator in Windows is the backslash, it supports the
forward slash as a separator too.
Add support for this so that the behavior is similar to the way Windows
PowerShell handles the forward slash: it is recognized as a separator,
and when using <tab> for path completion the slash is reversed.
* Playground infraestructure (tests, etc) additions.
A few things to note:
* Nu can be started with a custom configuration file (`nu --config-file /path/to/sample_config.toml`). Useful for mocking the configuration on test runs.
* When given a custom configuration file Nu will save any changes to the file supplied appropiately.
* The `$nu.config-path` variable either shows the default configuration file (or the custom one, if given)
* We can now run end to end tests with finer grained control (currently, since this is baseline work, standard out) This will allow to check things like exit status, assert the contents with a format, etc)
* Remove (for another PR)
* Move run_script to engine
* Add which dep and feature to engine
* Change unwrap to expect
* Add wasm specification
* Remove which from default, add specification correctly
* Add nu-platform-specifics
* Move is_external_cmd to platform_specifics
* Add is_external_cmd to host and use it instead of nu_platform directly
* Clean up if else logic in is_external_cmd
* Bump nu-platform-specifics version
* Pass context to print_err
* Commit cargo.lock
* Move print functions to own module inside nu-engine
* Hypocratic change to run windows-nightly again
* Add import for Ordering
* Move printing of error to host
* Move platform specific which functionality to basic host
* Allow no use of cmd_name
* Fix windows compile issue
