The new builtin command "reset" now resets the entire internal state by
virtually destructing the Shell state and re-constructing it.
This helps for example when setting a new hostname and wanting to view
it in the current Shell program.
Also, not allocating copies of the current string all the time should be
a tiny bit more efficient. We can do this because the 'current_line' is
only used while reporting the error, so it will not be used once we
begin reading the next line.
This class had slightly confusing semantics and the added weirdness
doesn't seem worth it just so we can say "." instead of "->" when
iterating over a vector of NNRPs.
This patch replaces NonnullRefPtrVector<T> with Vector<NNRP<T>>.
That is, return ErrorOr<int>, handle fallible ops with TRY() and accept
a Main::Arguments.
Note that we do not populate the argc/argv members of Main::Arguments,
so all accesses have to go through .strings.
The parser is still very much a work-in-progress, but it can currently
parse most of the basic bits, the only *completely* unimplemented things
in the parser are:
- heredocs (io_here)
- alias expansion
- arithmetic expansion
There are a whole suite of bugs, and syntax highlighting is unreliable
at best.
For now, this is not attached anywhere, a future commit will enable it
for /bin/sh or a `Shell --posix` invocation.
Having an alias function that only wraps another one is silly, and
keeping the more obvious name should flush out more uses of deprecated
strings.
No behavior change.
This will make it easier to support both string types at the same time
while we convert code, and tracking down remaining uses.
One big exception is Value::to_string() in LibJS, where the name is
dictated by the ToString AO.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
We previously had at least three different implementations for resolving
executables in the PATH, all of which had slightly different
characteristics.
Merge those into a single implementation to keep the behaviour
consistent, and maybe to make that implementation more configurable in
the future.
This prevents us from needing a sv suffix, and potentially reduces the
need to run generic code for a single character (as contains,
starts_with, ends_with etc. for a char will be just a length and
equality check).
No functional changes.
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
This commit moves the length calculations out to be directly on the
StringView users. This is an important step towards the goal of removing
StringView(char const*), as it moves the responsibility of calculating
the size of the string to the user of the StringView (which will prevent
naive uses causing OOB access).
31ca48e made this default to paths, but now that we have a few sensible
ways to complete things, let's make those work too.
For instance, prior to this `kill <tab>` would've suggested paths, but
now it will suggest processes.
Setting 'allow_commit_without_listing' to false will now make LibLine
show the suggestion before actually committing to it; this is useful for
completions that will replace all the user input, where mistakes can go
unnoticed without some visual cue.
Now that we can resolve these correctly and they're per-suggestion, we
can finally use them for their intended purpose of letting suggestions
overwrite stuff in the buffer.
The shell now expects a JSON object of the form {"kind":<kind>,...} per
line in the standard output of the completion process, where 'kind' is
one of:
- "plain": Just a plain suggestion.
- "program": Prompts the shell to complete a program name starting with
the given "name".
- "proxy": Prompts the shell to act as if a completion for "argv" was
requested.
- "path": Prompts the shell to complete a path given the "base" and
"part" (same as completing part in cwd=base).
