Error with nushell 0.83.0

[yanecc]

The project is not well-adapted to the latest version of nushell, version 0.83.0, and it displays the following error:

Error: nu::parser::input_type_mismatch

  × Command does not support string input.
    ╭─[C:\Users\Sunrise\.zoxide.nu:27:1]

Solution is following:
($rest | str length).0 <= 1
I also changed everywhere:
from let-env x to $env.x

# Initialize hook to add new entries to the database.
if (not ($env | default false __zoxide_hooked | get __zoxide_hooked)) {
  $env.__zoxide_hooked = true
  $env.config = ($env | default {} config).config
  $env.config = ($env.config | default {} hooks)
  $env.config = ($env.config | update hooks ($env.config.hooks | default {} env_change))
  $env.config = ($env.config | update hooks.env_change ($env.config.hooks.env_change | default [] PWD))
  $env.config = ($env.config | update hooks.env_change.PWD ($env.config.hooks.env_change.PWD | append {|_, dir|
    zoxide add -- $dir
  }))
}

# =============================================================================

# When using zoxide with --no-cmd, alias these internal functions as desired.

# Jump to a directory using only keywords.
def-env __zoxide_z [...rest:string] {
  let arg0 = ($rest | append '~').0
  let path = if (($rest | str length).0 <= 1) and ($arg0 == '-' or ($arg0 | path expand | path type) == dir) {
    $arg0
  } else {
    (zoxide query --exclude $env.PWD -- $rest | str trim -r -c "\n")
  }
  cd $path
}

# Jump to a directory using interactive search.
def-env __zoxide_zi  [...rest:string] {
  cd $'(zoxide query --interactive -- $rest | str trim -r -c "\n")'
}

# =============================================================================

# Commands for zoxide. Disable these using --no-cmd.

alias z = __zoxide_z
alias zi = __zoxide_zi

For now I just removed this check in if statement. So it becomes:
let path = if ($arg0 == '-' or ($arg0 | path expand | path type) == dir) {

Thanks for this. It was throwing a weird error when I tried the first fix, adding str before length.

[amtoine]

as said in #596, this issue has been fixed in nushell/nushell#9816 and should be released in a patch release soon 😌

[asim215]

It looks like original if check works fine now with updated nushell 0.83.1.
let path = if (($rest | length) <= 1) and ($arg0 == '-' or ($arg0 | path expand | path type) == dir) {
Thanks!

Awesome, closing this then. Thanks!

I've updated to nushell 0.83.1 and still seeing the error related to let-env

I thought maybe I could just edit .zoxide.nu but it says "Code generated by zoxide. DO NOT EDIT." at the top. If I manually replace all let-env instances to $env., these changes get replaced by the init script in env.nu.

Solution was to disable to init script from running every time.

I guess if the let-env/$env. change remains in nu, then the init script will need updating.

@charlesroper yes, the nushell 0.83.1 release notes explicitly note that let-env won't return

That one is pretty simple to update though with a simple replace/update.

@charlesroper
I ran into the same issue. My zoxide init nushell contained 'let-env', even though i had the newest zoxide version (v0.9.1) installed via brew install zoxide.
The file for the template should have been fixed in the main branch: https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide/blob/main/templates/nushell.txt .
To fix zoxide init nushell to contain the updated script, i installed zoxide via cargo install --git https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide.
Hopefully that helps.

@ajeetdsouza
Is that something that needs to be adressed? It seems like to me that the brew install version contains old code.

[ajeetdsouza]

Released in 0.9.2.

For anybody else coming here, make sure nushell is at 0.83.1 -- .0 still fails
