# Description
Fixes: #11295
Sorry for introducing such issue.
The issue is caused by we wrongly set `redirect_stdout` and
`redirect_stderr` during eval, take the following as example:
```nushell
ls | bat --paging always
```
When running `bat --paging always`, `redirect_stdout` should be `false`.
But before this pr, it's set to true due to `ls` command, and then the
`true` value will go to all remaining commands.

# Description
This PR changes the way we handled non-zero exit codes to be and early
exit between `foo; bar`. If `foo` in the example has a non-zero exit
code, `bar` wouldn't be run.
This also affects subexpressions.
# Description
Fixes: #11153
To make sure scripts stop from running on non-zero exit code, we need to
invoke `might_consume_external_result` on
`PipelineData::ExternalStream`, so it can tell nushell if this command
exists with non-zero exit code.
And this pr also adjusts some test cases.

Goes towards implementing #10598, which asks for a spread operator in
lists, in records, and when calling commands (continuation of #11006,
which only implements it in lists)
# Description
This PR is for adding a spread operator that can be used when building
records. Additional functionality can be added later.
Changes:
- Previously, the `Expr::Record` variant held `(Expression, Expression)`
pairs. It now holds instances of an enum `RecordItem` (the name isn't
amazing) that allows either a key-value mapping or a spread operator.
- `...` will be treated as the spread operator when it appears before
`$`, `{`, or `(` inside records (no whitespace allowed in between) (not
implemented yet)
- The error message for duplicate columns now includes the column name
itself, because if two spread records are involved in such an error, you
can't tell which field was duplicated from the spans alone
`...` will still be treated as a normal string outside records, and even
in records, it is not treated as a spread operator when not followed
immediately by a `$`, `{`, or `(`.
# User-Facing Changes
Users will be able to use `...` when building records.
```
> let rec = { x: 1, ...{ a: 2 } }
> $rec
╭───┬───╮

╭─────┬──────╮

│ a │ 2 │

```
If you want to update a field of a record, you'll have to use `merge`
instead:
```

Error: nu:🐚:column_defined_twice

# Description
Close: #10278
This pr introduces `o>>`, `e>>`, `o+e>>` to allow redirection to append
to a file.
Examples:
```nushell
echo abc o>> a.txt
echo abc o>> a.txt
cat asdf e>> a.txt
cat asdf e>> a.txt
cat asdf o+e>> a.txt
```
~~TODO:~~
~~1. currently internal commands with `o+e>` redirect to a variable is
broken: `let x = "a.txt"; echo abc o+e> $x`, not sure when it was
introduced...~~
~~2. redirect stdout and stderr with append mode doesn't supported yet:
`cat asdf o>>a.txt e>>b.ext`~~
~~For these 2 items, I'd like to fix them in different prs.~~
Already done in this pr
# Description
Fixes: #10271
Given the following script:
```shell
# test.sh
echo aaaaa
echo bbbbb 1>&2
echo cc
```
This pr makes the following command possible:
```nushell
bash test.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}
```
## General idea behind the change:
When nushell redirect stderr message to external file
1. it take stdout of external stream, and pass this stream to next
command, so it won't block next pipeline command from running.
2. relative stderr stream are handled by `save` command
These two streams are handled separately, so we need to delegate a
thread to `save` command, or else we'll have a chance to hang nushell,
we have meet a similar before: #5625.
### One case to consider
What if we're failed to save to an external stream? (Like we don't have
a permission to save to a file)?
In this case nushell will just print a waning message, and don't stop
the following scripts from running.
# User-Facing Changes
## Before
```nushell
❯ bash test2.sh err> /dev/null | lines | each {|line| $line | str length}

much costs:

# User-Facing Changes
Breaking change for `nu-protocol`, since
`Value::follow_cell_path_not_from_user_input` was deleted.
Nushell now reports errors for when environment conversions are not
closures.
# Description
Since #10841 the goal is to remove the implementation details of
`Record` outside of core operations.
To this end use Record iterators and map-like accessors in a bunch of
places. In this PR I try to collect the boring cases where I don't
expect any dramatic performance impacts or don't have doubts about the
correctness afterwards
- Use checked record construction in `nu_plugin_example`
- Use `Record::into_iter` in `columns`
- Use `Record` iterators in `headers` cmd
- Use explicit record iterators in `split-by`
- Use `Record::into_iter` in variable completions
- Use `Record::values` iterator in `into sqlite`
- Use `Record::iter_mut` for-loop in `default`
- Change `nu_engine::nonexistent_column` to use iterator
- Use `Record::columns` iter in `nu-cmd-base`
- Use `Record::get_index` in `nu-command/network/http`
- Use `Record.insert()` in `merge`
- Refactor `move` to use encapsulated record API
- Use `Record.insert()` in `explore`
- Use proper `Record` API in `explore`
- Remove defensiveness around record in `explore`
- Use encapsulated record API in more `nu-command`s

# Description
Changes the `captures` field in `Closure` from a `HashMap` to a `Vec`
and makes `Stack::captures_to_stack` take an owned `Vec` instead of a
borrowed `HashMap`.
This eliminates the conversion to a `Vec` inside `captures_to_stack` and
makes it possible to avoid clones altogether when using an owned
`Closure` (which is the case for most commands). Additionally, using a
`Vec` reduces the size of `Value` by 8 bytes (down to 72).
# User-Facing Changes
Breaking API change for `nu-protocol`.
# Description
Consequences of #10841
This does not yet make the assumption that columns are always
duplicated. Follow the existing logic here
- Use saner record API in `nu-engine/src/eval.rs`
- Use checked record construction in `nu-engine/src/scope.rs`
- Use `values` iterator in `nu-engine/src/scope.rs`
- Use `columns` iterator in `nu_engine::get_columns()`
- Start using record API in `value/mod.rs`
- Use `.insert` in `eval_const.rs` Record code
- Record API for `eval_const.rs` table code
# User-Facing Changes

# Description
Pretty much all operations/commands in Nushell assume that the column
names/keys in a record and thus also in a table (which consists of a
list of records) are unique.
Access through a string-like cell path should refer to a single column
or key/value pair and our output through `table` will only show the last
mention of a repeated column name.
```nu
[[a a]; [1 2]]
╭─#─┬─a─╮
│ 0 │ 2 │
╰───┴───╯
```
While the record parsing already either errors with the
`ShellError::ColumnDefinedTwice` or silently overwrites the first
occurence with the second occurence, the table literal syntax `[[header
columns]; [val1 val2]]` currently still allowed the creation of tables
(and internally records with more than one entry with the same name.
This is not only confusing, but also breaks some assumptions around how
we can efficiently perform operations or in the past lead to outright
bugs (e.g. #8431 fixed by #8446).
This PR proposes to make this an error.
After this change another hole which allowed the construction of records
with non-unique column names will be plugged.
## Parts
- Fix `SE::ColumnDefinedTwice` error code
- Remove previous tests permitting duplicate columns
- Deny duplicate column in table literal eval
- Deny duplicate column in const eval
- Deny duplicate column in `from nuon`
# User-Facing Changes
`[[a a]; [1 2]]` will now return an error:
```

· ┬ ┬

this may under rare circumstances block code from evaluating.
Furthermore this makes some NUON files invalid if they previously
contained tables with repeated column names.

the future.

# Description
The issue #10318 is resolved by introducing helper methods within the
existing `get_documentation` function in the nu-engine crate. Initially,
I considered using nu-color-config crate to convert HEX config color to
ANSI color and employing the following method
[https://github.com/nushell/nushell/blob/main/crates/nu-color-config/src/color_config.rs#L9C1-L20C2](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/blob/main/crates/nu-color-config/src/color_config.rs#L9C1-L20C2).
However, this approach was deemed impractical due to circular
dependencies. Consequently, in a manner akin to how we invoke the
`table` command from the nu-command crate in `get_documentation`
function to create a themed-colored table, we invoke the `ansi` command
from nu-command to obtain the ANSI theme color code.
# User-Facing Changes
Visual Changes Only: the help command now uses configured theme, else it
falls back on default hard coded values.

code cleanup of *eval.rs*
I was reviewing the engine code and noticed this...
The *eval_element_with_input* method in eval.rs does not need to be

because no one is calling it...
@jntrnr is making this method not public going to block someone in the
future who might need it ?
Right now its not being used so I decided to tighten up the API a bit...

a followup PR will remove it altogether and wait for 0.87 👍⚙️ **details**: a new `NOTHING_VARIABLE_ID = 3` has been added,
parsing `$nothing` will create it, finally a `Value::Nothing` will be
produced and a warning will be reported.

This pr makes path containing '?' is also processed as pattern.
🔴 **Concerns: Need to design/comfirm a consistent rule to handle

Currently:
- if no dir has exactly same name with pattern, it will print the list
of matched directories
- if pattern exactly matches an empty dir's name, it will just print the
empty dir's content ( i.e. `[]`)
- if pattern exactly matches an dir's name, it will perform pattern
match and print all the dir contains

# Description
This doesn't really do much that the user could see, but it helps get us
ready to do the steps of the refactor to split the span off of Value, so
that values can be spanless. This allows us to have top-level values
that can hold both a Value and a Span, without requiring that all values
have them.
We expect to see significant memory reduction by removing so many
unnecessary spans from values. For example, a table of 100,000 rows and
5 columns would have a savings of ~8megs in just spans that are almost
always duplicated.

# Description
This PR creates a new `Record` type to reduce duplicate code and
possibly bugs as well. (This is an edited version of #9648.)
- `Record` implements `FromIterator` and `IntoIterator` and so can be
iterated over or collected into. For example, this helps with
conversions to and from (hash)maps. (Also, no more
`cols.iter().zip(vals)`!)
- `Record` has a `push(col, val)` function to help insure that the
number of columns is equal to the number of values. I caught a few
potential bugs thanks to this (e.g. in the `ls` command).
- Finally, this PR also adds a `record!` macro that helps simplify
record creation. It is used like so:
```rust
record! {
"key1" => some_value,
"key2" => Value::string("text", span),
"key3" => Value::int(optional_int.unwrap_or(0), span),
"key4" => Value::bool(config.setting, span),
}
```
Since macros hinder formatting, etc., the right hand side values should
be relatively short and sweet like the examples above.
Where possible, prefer `record!` or `.collect()` on an iterator instead
of multiple `Record::push`s, since the first two automatically set the
record capacity and do less work overall.
# User-Facing Changes
Besides the changes in `nu-protocol` the only other breaking changes are
to `nu-table::{ExpandedTable::build_map, JustTable::kv_table}`.
