Previously, we used rustyline's filename completer. This allowed us to make
progress on the completion engine without building all the parts at once. We now
need our own filename completer to make progress.
The primary driver to having our own filename completer is that it can better
integrate with our path constructs. For example, if we have
> ls .../<TAB>
we want to show a list of suggestions that includes all files two directories up
from the current working directory. The least jarring experience to a user would
be to maintain the three dots. The easiest way for us to do this is by building
our own completer and path constructs.
Doing 'cd .' or an equal command used to modify the prompt: It appended an './' and was even
repeatable, leading to strange prompts (believe me, I tested it for too long).
This fixes#2432
* Show directories and executable for command completion.
Previously we chose from two sets for completing the command position:
1. internal commands, and
2. executables relative to the PATH environment variable.
We now also show directories/executables that match the relative/absolute path
that has been partially typed.
* Fix for Windows
* Allow the calculation of bytes and int.
* fix clippy.
* minimal implement the into_into command.
* Revert "fix clippy."
This reverts commit 0d7cf72ed2.
* Revert "Allow the calculation of bytes and int."
This reverts commit 9c4e3787f5.
* set the argument to any type.
* if the argument is an int, return it with no change in value.
* add tests for into-int command.
* fix a faild test.
* plugin changes to support script plugins
* all platforms can have plugins with file extensions
* added .cmd, .py, .ps1 for windows
* added more trace! statements to document request and response
* WIP
* pretty much working, need to figure out sink plugins
* added a home for scripting plugin examples, ran fmt
* Had a visit with my good friend Clippy. We're on speaking terms again.
* add viable plugin extensions
* clippy
* update to load plugins without extension in *nix/mac.
* fmt
Previously, lite parse would stack up opening delimiters in vec, and if we
didn't close everything off, it would simply return an error with a partial form
that didn't include the missing closing delimiters. This commits adds those
delimiters so that `classify_block` can parse correctly.
The parser sees this as a positional argument, but when requesting completions
this could be either a filename that starts with a hyphen, or it could be a
flag. This expands the completion engine's interface to return a vec of possible
completion locations instead of an optional one, because we want to show all
possibilities instead of assuming one or the either.
The completion engine maps completion locations to spans on a line, which
indicate whther to complete a command name, flag name, argument, and so on.
Initial implementation is simplistic, with some rough edges, since it relies
heavily on the parser's interpretation. For example
du -
if asking for completions, `-` is considered a positional argument by the
parser, but the user is likely looking for a flag. These scenarios will be
addressed in a series of progressive enhancements to the engine.
