* Sort output of 'export' and 'alias'Rory Dudley2024-04-112-2/+6
| | | | | Sort the output of the built-in 'export' and 'alias' commands, in cases where all environment variables/aliases are printed out.
* Capture STDOUT as bytes, and convert to string when necessaryRory Dudley2024-04-062-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the recite() function created the 'out' variable, which was a String, that got passed to the various incant functions, in order to capture STDOUT in certain situations. In cases where STDOUT was captured, it was first converted to a String, and then appended to the 'out' variable, by means of String::from_utf8_lossy(). This works for basic text, however, does NOT work for binary data. This becomes problematic, when for example, downling a tar file with curl/wget, that is then piped ('|') to the tar program. Using from_utf8_lossy() in this case can corrupt the tar file. This patch makes it so that out is stored as bytes by default, and only converted to a String when necessary.
* Handle aliases in read()Rory Dudley2024-04-042-2/+2
| | | | | | Instead of handling aliases in the recite() function, which requires two loops to handle properly with the current implementation, offload checking for aliases to the read() function.
* Add better support for aliasesRory Dudley2024-04-042-12/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make sure to interpret alias values as their own poems, since aliases can be fairly complex. Notes: Previously, I was doing a simple find and replace for aliases within each verse. However, aliases can be fairly complex, containing their own range of meters, commands, and io operations. This could cause problems, since a verse should never have, for instance, a pipe (`|`) in the middle of it. This patch fixes it, so that we iterate once through the poem, generating a new poem based on aliases that are found. In order to avoid two loops in the recite() function, it might make sense to offload handling aliases to read().
* Add docstring comments to all the anthology functionsRory Dudley2024-03-315-0/+68
| | | | | | Add docstring comments for all the incant function throughout the anthology, documenting what each function does, and an example of it's shell command.
* Replace env!("HOME") with env::var("HOME")Rory Dudley2024-03-301-1/+8
| | | | | | Replaced all (non-test) instances of env!("HOME") with env::var("HOME"). The env! macro should only be used in instances where the environment variable should be resolved during compile time.
* Add the 'unset' built-in commandRory Dudley2024-03-301-0/+15
| | | | | Add the 'unset' command to remove global environment variable definitions from the shell.
* Add the 'alias' built-in commandRory Dudley2024-03-301-0/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | The shell now has support for aliases (via alias foo=bar). The 'unalias' command is also available to remove aliases. Finally, Environment::aliases was changed to be a HashMap<String, String>, instead of a Vec<String>. Since the verse's verb might change (for instance, it is an environment variable, or an alias), add another check in Poem::recite, which simply continues, instead of running the spellchecker, if the verb is empty.
* Add wrapper for global shell environmentRory Dudley2024-03-301-2/+3
| | | | | | | | Instead of having to pass around a bunch of different data structures for various shell functions, create the wrapper compose::Environment, which serves as a global shell state. It is configured via login/profile/rc scripts initially, but can of course be modified throughout the lifetime of the shell.
* Remove hard-coded PATHRory Dudley2024-03-281-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use $PATH, instead of a hard-coded PATH from main(). This means that there is no longer a need to pass around PATH to repl()/recite()/path::refresh(), since path::refresh() can call env::var directly. Since the hard-coded paths were removed, there needs to be some way to define $PATH. When running the debug build, dwvsh will look in 'dist/etc/dwvshrc' for the initial environment setup. For the release target, dwvsh will look in '/etc/dwvshrc'. After the global rc file is sourced, dwvsh will try to source ~/.dwvshrc if it exists, so users can extend their environment without root access (assuming a release install). Notes: Throughout a lot of this program, we're calling `env!("HOME")`, in order to get the user's home directory. Technically, this is not correct. The env!() macro resolves environment variables during compile time, while env::var() gets environment variables for the running process (i.e. the shell). See https://users.rust-lang.org/t/env-vs-env-var/88119 for more info. In the near future, this will need to be addressed. Might be worth looking into what other shells do, though one idea I had was to invoke '/usr/bin/id', grab the user's ID, and use it to grab the rest of the info from /etc/passwd. This would be handled in an /etc/dwvlogin or /etc/dwvprofile most likely.
* The anthology moduleRory Dudley2024-03-284-0/+94
The anthology module was added to run built-in commands. The 'cd' and 'exit' built-ins were moved from the main recite() loop to this module. Additionally, the 'export' and 'source' built-ins were added.
