# 🎀 Changelog This is the changelog for the Hilbish shell made in Go and Lua. ## [0.7.0] - 2021-11-22 ### Added - `hilbish.interactive` and `hilbish.login` properties to figure out if Hilbish is interactive or a login shell, respectively. - `hilbish.read` function to take input more elegantly than Lua's `io.read` - Tab Completion Enhancements - A new tab complete API has been added. It is the single `complete` function which takes a "scope" and a callback which is expected to return a table. Users can now add custom completions for specific commands. An example is: ```lua complete('command.git', function() return { 'add', 'version', commit = { '--message', '--verbose', '' } } end) ``` For `git`, Hilbish will complete commands add, version and commit. For the commit subcommand, it will complete the flags and/or files which `` is used to represent. - Hilbish will now complete binaries in $PATH, or any executable to a path (like `./` or `../`) - Files with spaces will be automatically put in quotes and completions will work for them now. - `prependPath` function (#81) - Signal hooks (#80) - This allows scripts to add their own way of handling terminal resizes (if you'd need that) or Ctrl-C - Module properties (like `hilbish.ver`) are documented with the `doc` command. - Document bait hooks ### Fixed - The prompt won't come up on terminal resize anymore. - `appendPath` should work properly on Windows. - A panic when a commander has an error has been fixed. ## [0.6.1] - 2021-10-21 ### Fixed - Require paths now use the `dataDir` variable so there is no need to change it anymore unless you want to add more paths - Remove double slash in XDG data require paths - Ctrl+C is handled properly when not interactive and won't result in a panic anymore - Commanders are handled by the sh interpreter library only now, so they work with sh syntax ### Changed - Error messages from `fs` functions now include the path provided ## [0.6.0] - 2021-10-17 ### Added - Hilbish will expand `~` in the preloadPath and samplePathConf variables. These are for compile time. - On Windows, the hostname in `%u` has been removed. - Made it easier to compile on Windows by adding Windows-tailored vars and paths. - Add require paths `./libs/?/?.lua` - Hilbish will now respect $XDG_CONFIG_HOME and will load its config and history there first and use Lua libraries in there and $XDG_DATA_HOME if they are set. (#71) - If not, Hilbish will still default to `~` - Added some new hooks - `command.precmd` is thrown right before Hilbish prompts for input - `command.preexec` is thrown right before Hilbish executes a command. It passes 2 arguments: the command as the user typed, and what Hilbish will actually execute (resolved alias) - `hilbish.dataDir` is now available to know the directory of Hilbish data files (default config, docs, preload, etc) - A `docgen` program has been added to `cmd/docgen` in the GitHub repository, As the name suggests, it will output docs in a `docs` folder for functions implemented in Go - All hilbish modules/libraries now have a `__doc` metatable entry which is simply a short description of the module. - `fs.readdir(dir)` has been added. It will return a table of files in `dir` - Errors in the `fs.mkdir` function are now handled. - **Breaking Change:** `fs.cd` no longer returns a numeric code to indicate error. Instead, it returns an error message. - The `doc` command has been added to document functions of Hilbish libraries. Run the command for more details. - `link(url, text)` has been added to `ansikit`. It returns a string which can be printed to produce a hyperlink in a terminal. Note that not all terminals support this feature. - The [Succulent](https://github.com/Rosettea/Succulent) library has been added. This includes more utility functions and expansions to the Lua standard library itself. - The command string is now passed to the `command.exit` hook ### Changed - Hilbish won't print an extra newline at exit with ctrl + d - `command.exit` with 0 exit code will now be thrown if input is nothing - **Breaking Change:** `fs.stat` has been made better. It returns a proper table instead of userdata, and has fields instead of functions - It includes `name`, `mode` as a octal representation in a string, `isDir`, and `size` ### Fixed - `timeout()` is now blocking - Directories with spaces in them can now be `cd`'d to - An alias with the same name as the command will now not cause a freeze (#73) - Userdata is no longer returned in the following cases: - Commander arguments - `fs` functions ## [0.5.1] - 2021-06-16 ### Added - Add `~/.config/hilbish` as a require path ### Changed - `cd` hook is only thrown after directory has actually changed ### Fixed - Handle error in commander properly, preventing a panic from Lua ## [0.5.0] - 2021-06-12 An absolutely massive release. Probably the biggest yet, includes a bunch of fixes and new features and convenient additions to the Lua API. ### Added - `-n` flag, which checks Lua for syntax errors without running it - `exec(command)` function, acts like the `exec` builtin in sh - Example: `exec 'awesome'` in an .xinitrc file with Hilbish as shebang - Commands from commander can now `return` an exit code ```lua commander.register('false', function() return 1 end) ``` When `false` is run, it will have the exit code of `1`, this is shorter/easier than throwing the command.exit hook and can work if the functionality of that changes - Added `-c` description - `args` variable, set when Hilbish runs a Lua script. It is an array that includes the execute path as the first argument - Lua code can be aliased - Recursive aliases - At the moment this only works for the first argument - Hilbish can now be used with Hilbiline if compiled to do so (currently only for testing purposes) - `goro(func)` runs a `func`tion in a goroutine. With channels that gopher-lua also provides, one can do parallelism and concurrency in Lua (but go style). - `coroutine` no those dont exist they dont matter `goro` is easier - `cd -` will change to the previous directory - `hilbish.cwd()` gets the current working directory - `timeout(func, time)` works exactly like the `setTimeout` function in JavaScript. It will run `func` after a period of `time` in milliseconds. - `interval(func, time)` works exactly like the `setInterval` function in JavaScripit. It will run `func` every `time` milliseconds - `hilbish.home` is a crossplatform Lua alternative to get the home directory easily. - `commander.deregister(cmdName)` de-registers any command defined with commander. ### Changed - **Breaking Change**: Move `_user` and `_ver` to a global `hilbish` table - Accessing username and Hilbish version is now done with `hilbish.user` and `hilbish.ver` - `hilbish.run(cmd)` runs cmd with Hilbish's sh interpreter. Using this function instead of `os.execute` ensures that sh syntax works everywhere Hilbish does. - `hilbish.flag(flag)` checks if flag has been passed to Hilbish. - Aliases now work with every command and not only the first one - Therefore `alias1; alias2` works now - `command.not-found` hook - `$SHLVL` is now incremented in Hilbish. If not a valid number, it will be changed to 1 - `fs.mkdir` can now make directories recursively if the 2nd argument is set to `true` - `fs.mkdir('path/to/dir', true)` - Hilbish runs a `preload.lua` file in the current directory first, then falls back to the global preload. Before the order was reversed. - Check if aliased command is defined in Lua, so registered `commander`s can be aliased - Add input to history before alias expansion. Basically, this adds the actual alias to history instead of the aliased command. - Global preload path, require paths, default config directory and sample config directory can now be changed at compile time to help support other systems. ### Fixed - `cd` now exits with code `1` instead of the error code if it occurs - Don't append directory to $PATH with `appendPath` if its already there - Continued input is no longer joined with a space unless explicitly wanted - Hilbish won't try to go interactive if it isn't launched in a TTY (terminal) - Ctrl+D on a continue prompt with no input no longer causes a panic - Actually handle the `-h`/`--help` option ## [0.4.0] - 2021-05-01 ### Added - Ctrl C in the prompt now cancels/clear input (I've needed this for so long also) - Made Hilbish act like a login shell on login - If Hilbish is the login shell, or the `-l`/`--login` flags are used, Hilbish will use an additional `~/.hprofile.lua` file, you can use this to set environment variables once on login - `-c` has been added to run a single command (this works exactly like being in the prompt would, so Lua works as well) - `-i` (also `--interactive`) has been added to force Hilbish to be an interactive shell in cases where it usually wont be (like with `-c`) - Use readline in continue prompt - Added a `mulitline` hook that's thrown when in the continue/multiline prompt - Added `appendPath` function to append a directory to `$PATH` - `~` will be expanded to `$HOME` as well - A utility `string.split` function is now added - `string.split(str, delimiter)` - Added a `_user` variable to easily get current user's name ### Changed - **BREAKING Change**: [Lunacolors](https://github.com/Hilbis/Lunacolors) has replaced ansikit for formatting colors, which means the format function has been removed from ansikit and moved to Lunacolors. - Users must replace ansikit with `lunacolors` in their config files - A getopt-like library is now used for command line flag parsing - `cd` builtin now supports using environment variables - This means you can now `cd $NVM_DIR` as an example - Function arguments are now more strictly typed (`prompt(nil)` wouldnt work now) - Other general code/style changes ## Fixed - Fix makefile adding Hilbish to `/etc/shells` on every `make install` Since Lunacolors is a submodule, you may just want to completely reclone Hilbish recursively and then update (rerun `make install`) Or instead of recloning, run `git submodule update --init --recursive` in Hilbish's git directory ## [0.3.2] - 2021-04-10 ### Added - Add more functions to `ansikit` module - Add functions `stat` and `mkdir` to `fs` module - `-C` flag to define path to config - Add require path `~/.local/share/hilbish/libs` ### Changed - Continue to new line if output doesnt end with it Observed: ![Observed](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/5be15fed950a2926e6f14dfe4427b84b7c0c448d5d937f9df15959ca934a50ce/68747470733a2f2f6d6f646575732e69732d696e736964652e6d652f70633335416133492e706e67) ## [0.3.1] - 2021-04-06 ### Fixed - Fix `%u` in prompt format being full name and instead make it actually username ## [0.3.0] - 2021-04-05 ### Added - Added a `multiprompt` function to change the prompt of the multiline/continuation/newline prompt - `_ver` variable to get Hilbish's version from Lua ### Changed - **BREAKING Change**: Removed Bait hooks `command.success` and `command.fail`, there is now the single hook `command.exit`, with a single argument passed which the exit code of the command. Use this to determine if a command has failed or not (failure is code != 0) - **BREAKING Change**: The Ansikit function `text` has been renamed to `format`. - `fs.cd` now throws an exception instead of silently failing, which you should handle with `pcall` - Enhancements to the `cd` command: - With no arguments will move to $HOME - Now throws a cd hook, with a single hook arg being the arguments to the command - Now works for directories with spaces - Lua input now throws a success hook if it succeeded - Command history is now saved to `~/.hilbish-history` - Globals defined in Lua that are strings will be defined as an env variable ([#16](https://github.com/Rosettea/Hilbish/pull/16)) - Input ending with `\` will now go to a newline - `exit` command is now written in Lua ### Fixed - Input is now trimmed - Internals are slightly cleaned up and codebase split up - Hilbish will now fall back to a builtin minimal config if the user's config has syntax errors on loading - Commands defined in Lua now report the error to the user cleanly instead of panicking if it has occured ## [0.2.0] - 2021-03-31 ### Added - Hooks (events) are the new and main thing in v0.2, you can now listen for hooks or cast out (emit) custom ones, via the [bait](https://github.com/Hilbis/Hilbish/wiki/Bait) package - `^^` to refer to the previous command. It's for the lazy hands like me, so I can do something like `ENV=VAR ^^` - Way more (more like any) comments in the core code. ### Changed - Prompt has been changed to have printf-like verbs to format. This makes it easier on the user's side to configure, and doesn't require hooks to change it for things like current directory. - Default prompt's changed and the triangle changes color based on if command failed or not. ## [0.1.2] - 2021-03-24 ### Added - Add Lua input to history ## [0.1.1] - 2021-03-24 ### Added - Go to new line if sh input is incomplete ```bash > for i in {1..5} ``` This input for example will prompt for more input to complete: ![input](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/b757e474da5880d57be135087f59f45ab214b8f39f182b299d861cac7b6d84ff/68747470733a2f2f6d6f646575732e69732d696e736964652e6d652f30624456547461352e706e67) ## [0.1.0] - 2021-03-24 ### Added - Tab complete files - Makefile installation - sh support ## [0.0.12] - 2021-03-21 First "stable" release of Hilbish.
