* Add input and output types to $nu.scope.commands This commit changes the schema: instead of command.signature: table we now have command.signatures: list<table> with one signature for every input-output type pair. * Represent signatures as a map from input_type to signature * Sort signature entries * Drop command name from signature tables * Don't use "rest" as name of rest parameter; use empty string instead * Bug fix: was creating records with repeated keys E.g. $nu.scope.commands | where name == 'hash sha256' | get signatures.0 | table -e $nu.scope.commands | where name == 'transpose' | get signatures.0 | table -e
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
