This is the first commit of a series intended to replace the existing
"parse tree" machinery. It adds a new abstract syntax tree and uses a more
normal recursive descent parser.
Initially there are no users of the new ast. The following commits will
replace parse_tree -> ast for all usages.
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
Presently the completion engine ignores builtins that are part of the
fish syntax. This can be a problem when completing a string that was
based on the output of `commandline -p`. This changes completions to
treat these builtins like any other command.
This also disables generic (filename) completion inside comments and
after strings that do not tokenize.
Additionally, comments are stripped off the output of `commandline -p`.
Fixes#5415Fixes#2705
When considering an autosuggestion from history, we attempt to validate the
command to ensure that we don't suggest invalid (e.g. path-dependent)
commands. Prior to this fix, we would validate the last command in the
command line (e.g. in `cd /bin && ./stuff` we would validate "./stuff".
This doesn't really make sense; we should be validating the first command
because it has the potential to change the PWD. Switch to validating the
first command.
Also remove some helper functions that became dead through this change.
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.
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.
The previous attempt to support newlines after pipes changed the lexer to
swallow newlines after encountering a pipe. This has two problems that are
difficult to fix:
1. comments cannot be placed after the pipe
2. fish_indent won't know about the newlines, so it will erase them
Address these problems by removing the lexer behavior, and replacing it
with a new parser symbol "optional_newlines" allowing the newlines to be
reflected directly in the fish grammar.
