For example, when typing `cd <tab>`, the shell will show a list of
files in the current directory. This behavior is similar to typing `cd
./<tab>`.
It makes it easier to `cd` into directories without having to list them
first.
This saves work in places that previously had to create a
`Vector<String>` anyway, or repeatedly cast the char* to a String.
Plus, Strings are nicer than char*. :^)
This feature needs a bit more work, so let's disable it by default.
Note that the shell will still use _complete_foo if it is defined
regardless of this setting.
This commit limits the autocomplete processes to effectively have
readonly access to the fs, and only enough pledges to get the dynamic
loader working.
A program can either respond to `--complete -- some args to complete`
directly, or add a `_complete_<program name>` invokable (i.e. shell
function, or just a plain binary in PATH) that completes the given
command and lists the completions on stdout.
Should such a completion fail or yield no results, we'll fall back to
the previous completion algorithm.
Shell can now use LibLine's `on_paste` hook to more intelligently escape
pasted data, with the following heuristics:
- If the current command is invalid, just pile the pasted string on top
- If the cursor is *after* a command node, escape the pasted data,
whichever way yields a smaller encoding
- If the cursor is at the start of or in the middle of a command name,
paste the data as-is, assuming that the user wants to paste code
- If the cursor is otherwise in some argument, escape the pasted data
according to which kind of string the cursor is in the middle of
(double-quoted, single-quoted or a simple bareword)
Previously would show the list of history items starting from
an index of 0.
This is a bit misleading though. Running `!0` would actually cause
the parser to error out and prevent you from running the command.
The "at most n bytes" behaviour of strncmp is required for this logic to
work, this was overlooked in 5b64abe when converting Strings to
StringViews, which lead to broken autocomplete.
Apologies for the enormous commit, but I don't see a way to split this
up nicely. In the vast majority of cases it's a simple change. A few
extra places can use TRY instead of manual error checking though. :^)
This makes interrupting `sleep 10; echo hi` not print `hi` anymore,
which is the expected behaviour anyway.
Also fixes the problem with fast-running loops "eating" interrupts and
not quitting.
Before this patch, `which ""` or `type ""` would say that the empty
string is `/usr/local/bin/`.
Convert callers to consistently call is_empty() on the returned string
while we're at it, to support eventually removing the is_null() String
state in the future.
Naturally, this means that a command with a failing redirection will
not start, and so will terminate the pipeline (if any).
This also applies to the `exit` run when the shell is closed, fixing a
fun bug there as well (thanks to Discord user Salanty for pointing that
out) where closing the terminal (i.e. I/O error on the tty) with a
failing `exit` command would make the shell retry executing `exit` every
time, leading to an eventual stack overflow.
Whenever the prompt is printed, we write a line's worth of space
characters to the terminal to ensure that the prompt ends up on a new
line even if there is dangling output on the current line.
We write these to the stderr, which is unbuffered, so each putc() call
would come with the overhead of a system call. Let's use a buffer
+ fwrite() instead, since heap allocation is much faster.
Previously we were simply ignoring the empty entry in '{,x}', making it
resolve to a list with a single element '(x)', this commit makes that
work as expected and resolve to '("" x)'.
This option is already enabled when building Lagom, so let's enable it
for the main build too. We will no longer be surprised by Lagom Clang
CI builds failing while everything compiles locally.
Furthermore, the stronger `-Wsuggest-override` warning is enabled in
this commit, which enforces the use of the `override` keyword in all
classes, not just those which already have some methods marked as
`override`. This works with both GCC and Clang.
This isn't a complete conversion to ErrorOr<void>, but a good chunk.
The end goal here is to propagate buffer allocation failures to the
caller, and allow the use of TRY() with formatting functions.
This commit makes the Shell check for errors after a node is run(), and
prevents further execution by unwinding until the error is cleared.
Fixes#10649.
When parse_expression looks at '$((', there are two ways it can end up
in parse_expression again, three consumed characters later. All these
ways fail, so what happened was that the parser tried all possible
combinations, hence taking potentially an exponential amount of time.
1. parse_evaluate swallows the '$(', a new invocation of
parse_expression swallows the other '(', and through
parse_list_expression we're at another parse_expression.
2. parse_evaluate swallows the '$(', but returns a SyntaxError.
parse_expression used to not recognize the error, and treated it as a
regular AST node, calling into read_concat, then a new invocation of
parse_expression swallows the other '(', and through
parse_list_expression we're at another parse_expression.
Fixes#10561.
