This adds initial support for statements with prefixed variable assignments.
Statments like this are supported:
a=1 b=$a echo $b # outputs 1
Just like in other shells, the left-hand side of each assignment must
be a valid variable identifier (no quoting/escaping). Array indexing
(PATH[1]=/bin ls $PATH) is *not* yet supported, but can be added fairly
easily.
The right hand side may be any valid string token, like a command
substitution, or a brace expansion.
Since `a=* foo` is equivalent to `begin set -lx a *; foo; end`,
the assignment, like `set`, uses nullglob behavior, e.g. below command
can safely be used to check if a directory is empty.
x=/nothing/{,.}* test (count $x) -eq 0
Generic file completion is done after the equal sign, so for example
pressing tab after something like `HOME=/` completes files in the
root directory
Subcommand completion works, so something like
`GIT_DIR=repo.git and command git ` correctly calls git completions
(but the git completion does not use the variable as of now).
The variable assignment is highlighted like an argument.
Closes#6048
This adds support for `fish_trace`, a new variable intended to serve the
same purpose as `set -x` as in bash. Setting this variable to anything
non-empty causes execution to be traced. In the future we may give more
specific meaning to the value of the variable.
The user's prompt is not traced unless you run it explicitly. Events are
also not traced because it is noisy; however autoloading is.
Fixes#3427
In e167714899 we allowed recursive calls
to complete. However, some completions use infinite recursion in their
completions and rely on `complete` to silently stop as soon as it is
called recursively twice without parameter (thus completing the
current commandline). For example:
complete -c su -s -xa "(complete -C(commandline -ct))"
su -c <TAB>
Infinite recursion happens because (commandline -ct) is an empty list,
which would print an error message. This commmit explicitly detects
such recursive calls where `complete` has no parameter and silently
terminates. This enables above completion (like before raising the
recursion limit) while still allowing legitimate cases with limited
recursion.
Closes#6171
We used to have a global notion of "is the shell interactive" but soon we
will want to have multiple independent execution threads, only some of
which may be interactive. Start tracking this data per-parser.
To support distinct parsers having different working directories, we need
to keep the working directory alive, and also retain a non-path reference
to it.
This makes the following changes:
1. Events in background threads are executed in those threads, instead of
being silently dropped
2. Blocked events are now per-parser instead of global
3. Events are posted in builtin_set instead of within the environment stack
The last one means that we no longer support event handlers for implicit
sets like (example) argv. Instead only the `set` builtin (and also `cd`)
post variable-change events.
Events from universal variable changes are still not fully rationalized.
Blocks will soon need to be shared across parsers. Migrate the loop status
(like break or continue) from the block into the libdata. It turns out we
only ever need one, we don't need to track this per-block.
Make it an enum class.
Prior to this fix, a function_block stored a process_t, which was only used
when printing backtraces. Switch this to an array of arguments, and make
various other cleanups around null terminated argument arrays.
This runs build_tools/style.fish, which runs clang-format on C++, fish_indent on fish and (new) black on python.
If anything is wrong with the formatting, we should fix the tools, but automated formatting is worth it.
It was unconditionally returning `parse_execution_success`. This was
causing certain parser errors to incorrectly return after evaluation
with `$status` equal to `0`, as reported after `eval`, `source`, or
sub-`fish` execution.
This reverts commit 7a74198aa3.
Believe it or not this commit actually increased copying. When accepting
a value you know you're going to take ownership of, just accept it by
value; then temporaries can invoke the move ctor and blah blah blah.
We really need a lightweight refcounted pass-by-value string to make this
less error prone.
Directly access the job list without the intermediate job_iterator_t,
and remove functions that are ripe for abuse by modifying a local
enumeration of the same list instead of operating on the iterators
directly (e.g. proc.cpp iterates jobs, and mid-iteration calls
parser::job_remove(j) with the job (and not the iterator to the job),
causing an invisible invalidation of the pre-existing local iterators.
In a galaxy far, far away, event_blockage_t was intended to block only cetain
events. But it always just blocked everything. Eliminate the event block
mask.
This requires threading environment_t through many places, such as completions
and history. We introduce null_environment_t for when the environment isn't
important.
The parent of a job is the parent pipeline that executed the function or
block corresponding to this job. This will help simplify
process_mark_finished_children().
