# Description Add `format duration` cmd to choose output unit. This takes the previous `into duration --convert ...` behavior which returned a string into its own `format duration` command. This was suprising and not fitting with the general type signature for the `into ...` commands. This command for now lives in the `nu-cmd-extra` nursery. # User-Facing Changes ## Breaking change Removes formatting behavior from `into duration` Now use `format duration` instead of `into duration --convert` ## Usage: ``` 1sec | format duration us # Output data in microseconds "2ms" | into duration | format duration sec # go from string to string ``` # Tests + Formatting Basic example testing (including basic broadcast)
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.
