# Description While each of the `help <subcommands>` in `std` had completers, there wasn't one for the main `help` command. This adds all internals and custom commands (as with `help commands`) as possible completions. # User-Facing Changes `help ` + <kbd>Tab</kbd> will now suggest completions for both the `help <subcommands>` as well as all internal and custom commands. # Tests + Formatting Note: Cannot add tests for completion functions since they are module-internal and not visible to test cases, that I can see. - 🟢 `toolkit fmt` - 🟢 `toolkit clippy` - 🟢 `toolkit test` - 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`
Welcome to the standard library of `nushell`!
The standard library is a pure-nushell collection of custom commands which
provide interactive utilities and building blocks for users writing casual scripts or complex applications.
To see what's here:
> use std
> scope commands | select name usage | where name =~ "std "
#┬───────────name────────────┬──────────────────────usage──────────────────────
0│std assert │Universal assert command
1│std assert equal │Assert $left == $right
2│std assert error │Assert that executing the code generates an error
3│std assert greater │Assert $left > $right
4│std assert greater or equal│Assert $left >= $right
... ...

🧰 Using the standard library in the REPL or in scripts
All commands in the standard library must be "imported" into the running environment
(the interactive read-execute-print-loop (REPL) or a .nu script) using the
use command.
You can choose to import the whole module, but then must refer to individual commands with a std prefix, e.g:
use std
std log debug "Running now"
std assert (1 == 2)
Or you can enumerate the specific commands you want to import and invoke them without the std prefix.
use std ["log debug" assert]
log debug "Running again"
assert (2 == 1)
This is probably the form of import you'll want to add to your env.nu for interactive use.
