This adds an option (always on at the moment) to use a colour scale of green to yellow to orange for the file size field instead of always green. See #65.
This makes the Colours value pick a colour based on the size of the file, instead of necessarily having them all green. (They are all green for now, though.)
See #97 and recently #130 too.
This allows the user to pass in options such as "--ignore '*.pyc'" to not list any files ending in '.pyc' in the output. It uses the Rust glob crate and currently does a simple split on pipe, without any escaping, so it’s not really *complete*, but is at least something.
Fixes#123. The code assumes that every File that has its link_target() method called would first have been checked to make sure it’s actually a link first. Unfortunately it also assumed that the only thing that can go wrong while following a link is if the file wasn’t a link, meaning it crashes when given a link it doesn’t have permission to follow.
This makes the file_target() method able to return either a file or path for displaying, as before, but also an IO error for when things go wrong.
This changes the way that views are used to display the actual lists of files. It used to pass empty vectors to the view methods, which most of the time would not print anything because there are no files to list — except when there’s a header row which gets printed for no files.
By not calling the view method at all when there’s nothing to print, exa won’t ever print extra things in the view unless it needs to for a file.
This fixes#106 “Don’t print the header if the result set is empty”
Now when you do `--sort time` instead of saying "unknown option --sort
time" it will say "unknown options '--sort time' (choices: name...)"
with all legal options.
This also adds the legal values to the default help text.
This commit removes the 'main' function present in main.rs, renames it to exa.rs, and puts the 'main' function in its own binary. This, I think, makes it more clear how the program works and where the main entry point is.
Librarification also means that we can start testing as a whole. Two tests have been added that test everything, passing in raw command-line arguments then comparing against the binary coloured text that gets produced.
Casualties include having to specifically mark some code blocks in documentation as 'tests', as rustdoc kept on trying to execute my ANSI art.
The original options was becoming a bit unwieldy, and would have been even more so if I added the same amount of comments. So this commit splits it up.
There's no extra hiding going on here, or rearranging things within the module: (almost) everything now has to be marked 'pub' to let other sub-modules in the new options module to see it.
The trait was only used internally to the options module, so it doesn't actually need to be exist or implemented on anything! We can just impl them directly on the types and have those methods be local to the module.
This commit moves file, dir, and the feature modules into one parent 'fs' module. Now there are three main 'areas' of the code: main and options, the filesystem-touching code, and the output-displaying code.
It should be the case that nothing in 'output' touches 'std::fs'.
Fixes#108. MetadataExt now returns direct numeric types rather than platform-specific ones, so we need to adjust the functions that use these to have the new types. I've just aliased the types to specific ones so the rest of the code remains the same (file.rs is the only place that uses this)
The RFC that changed this is here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/31551
This commit changes all the views to accommodate printing each path's prefix, if it has one.
Previously, each file was stripped of its ancestry, leaving only its file name to be displayed. So running "exa /usr/bin/*" would display only filenames, while running "ls /usr/bin/*" would display each file prefixed with "/usr/bin/". But running "ls /usr/bin/" -- without the glob -- would run ls on just the directory, printing out the file names with no prefix or anything.
This functionality turned out to be useful in quite a few situations: firstly, if the user passes in files from different directories, it would be hard to tell where they came from (especially if they have the same name, such as find | xargs). Secondly, this also applied when following symlinks, making it unclear exactly which file a symlink would be pointing to.
The reason that it did it this way beforehand was that I didn't think of these use-cases, rather than for any technical reason; this new method should not have any drawbacks save making the output slightly wider in a few cases. Compatibility with ls is also a big plus.
Fixes#104, and relates to #88 and #92.
This fixes a bug where extra sorting options (dirs first, reverse) were not applied when listing in long mode. In other words, fixes#105.
The bug occurred because the sorting function only took Files, but the details view uses File eggs that only contain Files. This commit changes the sorting function to accept anything that AsRefs to File, and impls that on both File and Egg so the same function works for both.
Thinking about it, it doesn't make sense to use an *external* time zone source when the program we want to compare it to, ls, uses the system one. So just use the system one.
Also, handle the case where the time zone data file can't be loaded by showing the files in UTC rather than falling over and quitting.
This uses the case-insensitive sort function in the `natord` crate to
convert both strings to lowercase lazily, sorting them as it goes. It
also adds tests for `--sort` in general.
The case sensitivity has been made an enum so it can be reused for other
fields (say, the file extension).
See #102.
- Fix visibility errors I stupidly didn't test before committing earlier
today
- Silence warnings about casting that were necessary for ARM
- Update dependencies
Something about these seemed to be causing a crash on Travis (build 327)... I have no idea what would set it off, but this makes the code better anyway.
- Users v0.5.1, which renames OSUsers to UsersCache
- Locale v0.2, which returns to libc v0.1
- Datetime v0.4.2, which mimics the locale update, and puts timezone definitions in:
- Zoneinfo-data, which is needed to obtain the current timezone
The `--long` flag should show the '@' character in the permissions list if that feature has been compiled in, but only the `--extended` flag should actually show their keys, rather than just their presence.
This makes use of a change in the `users` crate to change which parts of exa's code are accessed under a `Mutex`. The change is that the methods on `Users` can now take just `&self`, instead of `&mut self`. This has a knock-on effect in exa, as many methods now don't need to take a mutable `&self`, meaning that the Mutex can be moved to only containing the users information instead of having to be queried for *every column*. This means that threading should now be a lot faster, as fewer parts have to be executed on a single thread.
The main change to facilitate this is that `Table`'s structure has changed: everything environmental that gets loaded at the beginning is now in an `Environment` struct, which can be mocked out if necessary, as one of `Table`'s fields. (They were kind of in a variety of places before.)
Casualties include having to make some of the test code more verbose, as it explicitly takes the columns and environment as references rather than values, and those both need to be put on the stack beforehand. Also, all the colours are now hidden behind an `opts` field, so a lot of the rendering code is more verbose too (but not greatly so).
