Too many of our users have a shell initialization set up that
inadvertently duplicates some or most of the entries in their PATH,
bringing the system paths again in front of rbenv's shims. If this was a
nested shell (a typical scenario when starting up tmux), `rbenv init`
would get eval'd again but this time, shims won't get added to the front
of the PATH and would only stay and the end of the path, effectively
rendering them useless.
I tried to argue that this is a user problem rather than rbenv's, but I
can't fix everybody shell init when they report bugs. Instead, let's
revert to simpler times in rbenv where we just roll along with the
duplication and don't ask any questions.
This reverts commit 03fa148e81.
Fixes#369
It's slow and not necessary since we expect `$0` to already be expanded.
In tests this change forces us to deal with some relative paths, but
it's not a big deal. The `rbenv init -` output in the most common case
will be the same as before:
source '/home/myuser/.rbenv/libexec/../completions/rbenv.bash'
It seems that "comm" header can't be relied on cross-platform, but that
"ucomm" is more portable. I have no idea whether it's the right value to
use here, but it seems to be doing the job.
Also strip trailing whitespace because OpenBSD 5.4 `ps` output is padded
with spaces for some reason.
Fixes#489
Fish user config file `~/.config/fish/config.fish` loads for every
instance of fish shell, not just interactive ones. Since it's
unnecessary and dangerous to eval `rbenv init -` output in
non-interactive shells, wrap the invocation in a conditional that checks
if the current shell is interactive.
Fixes#501
`$SHELL` variable is a terrible way of detecting the current shell
because it's not even supposed to reflect the current shell; it's meant
for keeping the value of the default shell for programs to start.
If an explicit `<shell>` argument wasn't passed to `rbenv init`, it
tries to detect the shell by getting the name of its parent process. If
this fails, it falls back on the value of `$SHELL` as before.
Furthermore, `rbenv init` will set the RBENV_SHELL variable in the
current shell to the value of the detected shell so that `sh-shell` and
`sh-rehash` commands don't have to repeat the detection.
If `rbenv init -` outputs `.` in place of `source` and that gets eval'd
by the desktop manager via `~/.profile`, it chokes and prevents the user
from logging in.
Fixes#457
ksh syntax becomes:
function rbenv {
typeset command
`typeset` only declares a local variable if there's an explicit
`function` declaration; otherwise the variable leaks.
Other shells use this syntax:
rbenv() {
local command
This is for dash compatibility, which supports neither `function` nor
`typeset`.
references #205, fixes#408
readlink comes from GNU coreutils. On systems without it, rbenv used to
spin out of control when it didn't have readlink or greadlink available
because it would re-exec the frontend script over and over instead of the
worker script in libexec.
Fixes#389
Added specific message for ksh in identifying the proper shell
initialization file.
Changed rbenv functiond definition to be more portable.
Shell functions should be defined by using the function command or
using the parenthesis grammar, but using both is not portable:
rbenv() {... -or-
function rbenv { ...
