# Description When using a format string, `into datetime` would disallow an `int` even when it logically made sense. This was mainly a problem when attempting to convert a Unix epoch to Nushell `datetime`. Unix epochs are often stored or returned as `int` in external data sources. ```nu 1722821463 | into datetime -f '%s' Error: nu:🐚:only_supports_this_input_type × Input type not supported. ╭─[entry #3:1:1] 1 │ 1722821463 | into datetime -f '%s' · ─────┬──── ──────┬────── · │ ╰── only string input data is supported · ╰── input type: int ╰──── ``` While the solution was simply to `| to text` the `int`, this PR handles the use-case automatically. Essentially a ~5 line change that just moves the current parsing to a closure that is called for both Strings and Ints-converted-to-Strings. # User-Facing Changes After the change: ```nu [ 1722821463 "1722821463" 0 ] | each { into datetime -f '%s' } ╭───┬──────────────╮ │ 0 │ 10 hours ago │ │ 1 │ 10 hours ago │ │ 2 │ 54 years ago │ ╰───┴──────────────╯ ``` # Tests + Formatting Test case added. - 🟢 `toolkit fmt` - 🟢 `toolkit clippy` - 🟢 `toolkit test` - 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib` # After Submitting
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
