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.
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.
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.
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.
...while capturing its standard output.
As `$()` is an invalid construct, execute nodes are not supposed to
capture the output of no command being run; but it is possible to create
empty commands such as CastToCommand(Redirection(...)) or similar.
Make this a hard error instead of an unescapable select().
This was noticed in #10432, which should now error out like so:
```
Error: Cannot capture standard output when no command is being executed
0| $(<$file)
~~~~~^^^^^^^^^
1|
```
And also try_create<T> => try_make_ref_counted<T>.
A global "create" was a bit much. The new name matches make<T> better,
which we've used for making single-owner objects since forever.
This will cause a problem when `NonnullRefPtr<T>::operator T*` will be
declared as RETURNS_NONNULL. Clang emits a warning for this pointless
null check, which breaks CI.
We had two functions for doing mostly the same thing. Combine both
of them into String::find() and use that everywhere.
Also add some tests to cover basic behavior.
Closes#4283.
Heredocs are implemented in a way that makes them feel more like a
string (and not a weird redirection, a la bash).
There are two tunables, whether the string is dedented (`<<-` vs `<<~`)
and whether it allows interpolation (quoted key vs not).
To the familiar people, this is how Ruby handles them, and I feel is the
most elegant heredoc syntax.
Unlike the oddjob that is bash, heredocs are treated exactly as normal
strings, and can be used _anywhere_ where a string can be used.
They are *required* to appear in the same order as used after a newline
is seen when parsing the sequence that the heredoc is used in.
For instance:
```sh
echo <<-doc1 <<-doc2 | blah blah
contents for doc1
doc1
contents for doc2
doc2
```
The typical nice errors are also implemented :^)
Some nodes (such as heredocs) cannot be validated immediately, so the
entire tree will need to be revalidated if we don't allow mutating
syntax errors.

This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.
ambr --no-parent-ignore --key-from-file --rep-from-file key.txt rep.txt *
This makes commands like `foo 2>&1 | bar` behave as expected (which is
to pipe both stdout and stderr of `foo` to stdin of `bar`).
Previously, this would've piped stderr of `foo` into stdout, and the
stdout of `foo` into the stdin of `bar`.
Now a variable may have an optional slice (only _one_ slice), which can
also use negative indices to index from the end.
This works on both lists and strings.
The contents of the slice have the same semantics as brace expansions.
For example:
```sh
$ x=(1 2 3 4 5 6)
$ echo $x[1..3] # select indices 1, 2, 3
2 3 4
$ echo $x[3,4,1,0] # select indices 3, 4, 1, 0 (in that order)
4 5 2 1
$ x="Well Hello Friends!"
$ echo $x[5..9]
Hello
```
This commit adds a few basic variable substitution operations:
- length
Find the length of a string or a list
- length_across
Find the lengths of things inside a list
- remove_{suffix,prefix}
Remove a suffix or a prefix from all the passed values
- regex_replace
Replace all matches of a given regex with a given template
- split
Split the given string with the given delimiter (or to its
code points if the delimiter is empty)
- concat_lists
concatenates any given lists into one
Closes#4316 (the ancient version of this same feature)
(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
This allows correct iteration over nested lists.
Also store values to variables without resolving them, to delay the
resolution step as much as possible (this helps with storing nested
lists in variables).
This API was a mostly gratuitous deviation from POSIX that gave up some
portability in exchange for avoiding the occasional strlen().
I don't think that was actually achieving anything valuable, so let's
just chill out and have the same open() API as everyone else. :^)
