* Better comments in recite()Rory Dudley2024-03-301-5/+9
| | | | | Add some better comments/move around existing comments to make some of the actions in recite() more clear.
* Fix a subtle bug when running interal poemsRory Dudley2024-03-301-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug for internal poems, where the output would always get split on newlines, regardless of the verse's verb. This breaks things like 'export DIR=`ls`', since output from `ls` might have newlines, meaning that $DIR will only contains the first item from the `ls` command. This will only perform the newline split when sending the output to a non-builtin command. Notes: This fix works for export (and alias), but could cause issues with other builtins in the future. Worth keeping an eye on this, as this probably isn't a perfect solution.
* Add the 'unset' built-in commandRory Dudley2024-03-302-1/+19
| | | | | Add the 'unset' command to remove global environment variable definitions from the shell.
* Add the 'alias' built-in commandRory Dudley2024-03-303-10/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Fix the buildRory Dudley2024-03-301-0/+1
| | | | Need to include line to import compose::Environment.
* Add wrapper for global shell environmentRory Dudley2024-03-303-11/+13
| | | | | | | | 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 Dudley2024-03-283-49/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Dudley2024-03-286-57/+189
| | | | | | 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.
* Add comments (`#`) to the parserRory Dudley2024-03-283-2/+24
| | | | | The parser will now interpret the '#' character as a single-line comment string, which works on it's own line, or at the end of an existing line.
* Rename prefresh()Rory Dudley2024-03-261-2/+2
| | | | | | Rename the path::prefresh() function to path::refresh(). Calling convention should be to `use crate::path;` or `mod path;`, and then call path::refresh(...), for verbosity.
* Remove defunct code from read() and recite()Rory Dudley2024-03-242-27/+0
| | | | | Remove some commented out code, that is no longer needed after the parser overhaul.
* Documentation for incant_Rory Dudley2024-03-241-0/+1
| | | | Add docstring for `incant_quiet_io`.
* read() and recite() overhaulRory Dudley2024-03-239-0/+1223
Rebuilt the LR parser (i.e. read()) from the ground up. This required that some changes be made to recite(), in order to accomodate the new data structures. These data structures were each split out into their own file, in order to make working with each component a bit easier. In addition to reworking the parts of the parser already present, some new features were also added, such as: - Support for strings (' and ") - Support for environment variables ($) - Support for interpreting tild as $HOME (~) - Support for sub-reading and sub-reciting (`) Notes: This is a huge commit that changes almost the entire program (main.rs is still the same, except for imports). Ideally, huge sweeping changes like this should not occur on the codebase, but since this is still pre-alpha, I guess this is acceptable. This is far from the end of patch set, however, as there is quite a lot of cleanup that needs to be done. For instance, checking for internal poems and environment variables should get split out to their own functions/macros. There is also some defunct code (that's commented out), that is unlikely to be useful in the future.
