Jesús Pérez 2f6089caaf # Summary 
feat: bootstrap installer with robust archive extraction, version mismatch handling, and improved PATH messaging

## Detailed Description

This commit implements a production-ready bootstrap installer with comprehensive error handling, version-agnostic archive extraction, and clear user messaging. All improvements follow DRY principles using symlink-based architecture for single-source-of-truth maintenance.

## Major Changes (Session 2025-10-19)

### 0. Bootstrap Installer & Distribution Improvements (NEW)

#### 0a. Install Script Architecture - DRY Design

**Issue**: Code duplication across installation paths
- `./install.sh`, `./scripts/templates/install.sh`, `installers/bootstrap/install.sh` were separate copies
- Changes required updating multiple files
- Risk of divergence and inconsistency

**Solution**: Implemented symlink-based DRY architecture
- Single source of truth: `installers/bootstrap/install.sh` (1,247 lines)
- Symlinks created:
  - `./install.sh` → `installers/bootstrap/install.sh`
  - `./scripts/templates/install.sh` → `installers/bootstrap/install.sh`
- All changes automatically propagate through symlinks
- No code duplication

**Impact**:
- ✅ Single maintenance point for all install scripts
- ✅ Consistent behavior across all paths
- ✅ Reduced maintenance burden
- ✅ No divergence risk

#### 0b. Archive Extraction - Version-Agnostic Binary Detection

**Issue**: "No Nushell binary found in extracted archive"
- Script failed when extracting from `nushell-full-0.108.0-darwin-arm64.tar.gz`
- Error occurred even though binaries were present at `nushell-full-0.108.0/bin/nu`

**Root Cause**: `find` command returning parent directory itself in results
```bash
# ❌ OLD - find returns parent directory first
local extracted=$(find "$extract_dir" -maxdepth 1 -type d -name "nushell-*" | head -1)
# Returns: /tmp/nushell-install-22919/nushell-extract (parent!)
# Should return: /tmp/nushell-install-22919/nushell-extract/nushell-full-0.108.0 (subdirectory)
```

**Solution**: Added `-not -path` to exclude starting directory
```bash
# ✅ NEW - exclude parent directory
local extracted=$(find "$extract_dir" -maxdepth 1 -type d -name "nushell-*" -not -path "$extract_dir" | head -1)
# Now correctly returns the subdirectory
```

**Additional Improvements**:
- 4-level fallback detection strategy:
  1. Check `$extracted/bin/nu` (subdirectory structure)
  2. Check `$extracted/nu` (flat structure)
  3. Fallback search for any `nushell-*` subdirectory with `bin/nu`
  4. Last resort recursive search for any executable named `nu`
- Validates binaries exist before using them
- Clear error reporting with all search locations

**Version-Agnostic**:
- Uses `nushell-*` pattern (not hardcoded version numbers)
- Works with any Nushell version: 0.107, 0.108, 0.109, etc.
- Supports both `.tar.gz` and `.zip` archive formats

**Impact**:
- ✅ Archive extraction works reliably
- ✅ Works with any Nushell version
- ✅ Clear error messages guide users
- ✅ Multiple archive structure support

#### 0c. Plugin Registration - Version Mismatch Handling

**Issue**: Plugin registration failed with version incompatibility errors
```
Error: nu:🐚:plugin_failed_to_load
× Plugin `polars` is compiled for nushell version 0.107.1, which is not compatible with version 0.108.0
```

**Solution**: Implemented intelligent error classification
- Captures both stdout and stderr from plugin add commands
- Detects version incompatibility: "is not compatible with version" or "is compiled for nushell version"
- Classifies errors into three categories:
  1. **Success**: Plugin registered successfully ✅
  2. **Incompatible**: Version mismatch (skipped gracefully) ⚠️
  3. **Failed**: Other registration failures ❌
- Reports summary with counts of each category
- Installation continues successfully even with version mismatches

**New Error Reporting**:
```
✅ Registered nu_plugin_auth
⚠️  Skipping nu_plugin_polars: Version mismatch (built for different Nushell version)
✅ Successfully registered 13 plugins
⚠️  Skipped 1 incompatible plugins (version mismatch):
  - nu_plugin_polars
```

**Impact**:
- ✅ No installation failures due to version mismatches
- ✅ Users informed of incompatible plugins
- ✅ Clear distinction between error types
- ✅ Installation completes successfully

#### 0d. Shell Configuration PATH Update - Clear Messaging

**Issue**: Confusing PATH update messages
- User sees: "PATH already updated" for all files
- Then sees: "No shell configuration files were updated" warning
- Then sees: "Please manually add to your PATH" error
- **Problem**: Contradictory messages when PATH is already configured everywhere

**Root Cause**: Script conflated two states
- State 1: "Was PATH found in files?" (skips updating if found)
- State 2: "Did we add PATH to any file?" (used for messaging)
- Both states ignored means no update was made, but PATH might already exist

**Solution**: Track two separate states
```bash
local updated=false        # Was PATH ADDED to any file?
local path_found=false     # Was PATH FOUND in any file?

# In loop:
if grep -q "$install_dir" "$config_file"; then
    path_found=true        # Found it! Mark as true
    continue
fi

# After loop:
if [ "$updated" = "true" ]; then
    log_success "Shell configuration updated"
elif [ "$path_found" = "true" ]; then
    log_success "PATH is already configured in your shell configuration files"
else
    log_warn "Could not find or update shell configuration"
fi
```

**New Clear Messages**:
- ✅ "PATH is already configured in your shell configuration files" (when found everywhere)
- ✅ "Shell configuration updated" (when just added)
- ⚠️ "Could not find or update shell configuration" (when file missing)

**Impact**:
- ✅ Non-contradictory messages
- ✅ Users understand what happened
- ✅ No false warnings when PATH already configured
- ✅ Clear guidance when manual action needed

#### 0e. Installation Features

**`--source-path` Option** (Local Installation):
- Install from local archive: `./install.sh --source-path archive.tar.gz`
- Install from local directory: `./install.sh --source-path /path/to/binaries`
- Default behavior: `./install.sh --source-path` uses `./bin_archives`
- Works with custom `--install-dir` paths
- No download needed, offline installation support

**`--uninstall` with Configuration Management**:
- Prompts user: "Remove ~/.config/nushell? [y/N]"
- Removes all installed binaries and plugins
- Preserves user choice for configuration
- Clean uninstall before fresh reinstall

#### 0f. Documentation Updates

**CLAUDE.md**:
- Added "Install Script Architecture (DRY Design)" section
- Documents source of truth and symlink structure
- Explains `--source-path` feature
- Shows version-agnostic archive detection
- Lists DRY architecture benefits

**README.md**:
- Added "Install Script Architecture (DRY Design)" subsection
- Shows symlink structure with arrows
- Provides `--source-path` usage examples

### 1. Help System Integration (New Feature)

**Issue**: Version-update module recipes were not discoverable
- Not shown in `just help modules`
- Not referenced in `just help`
- Not included in help navigation system
- Users had to manually run `just --list` to find update commands

**Solution**:
- Added version-update module to all help outputs
- Updated `justfiles/help.just` to document all 30+ version-update recipes
- Created new `just commands` recipe as discoverable alias for `just --list`
- Integrated version-update into help-all workflow

**Impact**:
- Version-update commands now fully discoverable via help system
- Users can find update commands with: `just help modules`, `just help`, `just commands`
- Improved overall help system navigation

**Files Modified**:
- `justfiles/help.just` (+23 lines)
  - Added version-update module to help sections
  - Added to modules list
  - Added to help-all workflow
  - New `commands` recipe showing all recipes by group

### 2. Build Process Fixes (Phase 3: Bin Archives)

#### 2a. Plugin Archive Collection Bug

**Issue**: "No plugins found to package" warning in Phase 3
- Collected 26 plugin binaries but reported 0
- Archive creation skipped because count was wrong

**Root Cause**: `each` command returns null, so `| length` returned 0
```nushell
# ❌ OLD - each returns null
let plugin_count = (ls nu_plugin_*/target/release/nu_plugin_* | each {|p|
    cp $p.name $"($temp_dir)/"
} | length)  # Returns 0!
```

**Solution**: Separated counting from copying with proper filtering
```nushell
# ✅ NEW - count before operations
let plugins_to_copy = (ls nu_plugin_*/target/release/nu_plugin_* | where type == "file")
let plugin_count = ($plugins_to_copy | length)
```

**Impact**:
- Now correctly collects and reports 26 plugins
- Filters out .d dependency files automatically
- Warning eliminated

#### 2b. Tar Archive Path Handling

**Issue**: Tar command failing silently with relative paths in subshell
- `cd $temp_dir` changes context unpredictably
- Relative path `../$archive_name` fails in subshell
- Archive file not created despite exit code 0

**Root Cause**: Shell context and relative path issues in Nushell `do` block

**Solution**: Used `tar -C` with absolute paths instead of `cd`
```nushell
# ❌ OLD - unreliable context switching
do {
    cd $temp_dir
    tar -czf ../$archive_name .
}

# ✅ NEW - absolute paths, no context switching
tar -C $temp_dir -czf $archive_path .
```

**Additional Improvements**:
- Absolute path construction using `pwd | path join`
- Better error diagnostics with exit code and stderr output
- File verification after creation

**Impact**:
- Tar archives now created successfully
- Robust path handling across platforms
- Clear error messages for debugging

#### 2c. File Size Calculation Type Error

**Issue**: Runtime error when calculating archive size
```
Error: The '/' operator does not work on values of type 'list<filesize>'
```

**Root Cause**: `ls` returns list of records, so `.size` was a list
```nushell
# ❌ OLD - returns list<filesize>
(ls $archive_path).size / 1024 / 1024

# ✅ NEW - returns filesize
(ls $archive_path | get 0.size) / 1024 / 1024
```

**Impact**:
- Proper file size calculation in MB
- No more type errors

**Files Modified**:
- `scripts/create_full_distribution.nu` (+58 lines, refactored plugin collection)
  - Fixed plugin counting logic
  - Improved path handling with absolute paths
  - Enhanced error diagnostics

### 3. Plugin Rebuild Optimization

**Issue**: All plugins marked for rebuild even when dependencies unchanged
- Step 4 (`update_all_plugins.nu`) touched all Cargo.toml files at 01:00:32
- Step 5 saw all files as "newer" than binaries
- Marked ALL plugins for rebuild, though cargo only rebuilt changed ones

**Root Cause**: Script always saved files, even when no changes made
```nushell
# ❌ OLD - always saves, touching file timestamp
$updated_content | to toml | save -f $cargo_toml
```

**Solution**: Only save if content actually changed
```nushell
# ✅ NEW - compare before writing
let original_toml = $content | to toml
let new_toml = $updated_content | to toml

if $original_toml != $new_toml {
    $updated_content | to toml | save -f $cargo_toml
}
```

**Impact**:
- Unchanged files preserve original timestamps
- Only plugins with actual dependency changes are rebuilt
- Efficient rebuild process with accurate file modification detection

**Files Modified**:
- `scripts/update_all_plugins.nu` (+12 lines, added content comparison)
  - Only touches files with real changes
  - Preserves timestamps for efficiency
  - Clearer logic and comments

### 4. Documentation

**Files Modified**:
- `CHANGELOG.md` (+56 lines)
  - Added comprehensive 2025-10-19 entry
  - Documented all fixes with root causes
  - Listed files modified and impact summary

## Technical Details

### Nushell Patterns Used

1. **Proper List Handling**:
   - `ls` returns list of records, access with `| get 0.size`
   - Filter with `where type == "file"` to exclude metadata

2. **Absolute Path Construction**:
   - `pwd | append "path" | path join` for cross-platform paths
   - Safer than string concatenation with `/`

3. **Content Comparison**:
   - Compare TOML string representation before saving
   - Preserves file timestamps for efficiency

4. **Error Diagnostics**:
   - Capture `stderr` from commands
   - Report exit codes and error messages separately

## Testing

- [x] Help system shows version-update module
- [x] `just commands` displays all recipes by group
- [x] Phase 3 bin archive creation works
- [x] Plugin collection reports correct count (26)
- [x] Tar archives created successfully
- [x] File size calculated correctly
- [x] Plugin rebuild only touches changed files
- [x] CHANGELOG updated with all changes

# Changelog
## [0.108.0] - 2025-10-19 (BOOTSTRAP INSTALLER FIXES)
### 🚀 Bootstrap Installer & Distribution Improvements (2025-10-19)
#### Install Script Architecture (DRY Design)
- **Implemented Symlink-Based DRY Architecture**:
- Single source of truth: `installers/bootstrap/install.sh` (1,247 lines)
- Symlinks: `./install.sh` → `installers/bootstrap/install.sh`
- Symlinks: `./scripts/templates/install.sh` → `installers/bootstrap/install.sh`
- All changes propagate automatically through symlinks
- No code duplication across installation paths
#### Archive Extraction Fixes (Critical)
- **Fixed Archive Binary Detection (Version-Agnostic)**:
- Root cause: `find` command returning parent directory itself in results
- Solution: Added `-not -path "$extract_dir"` to exclude starting directory
- Now correctly detects `nushell-full-X.Y.Z/bin/nu` regardless of version
- Works with any Nushell version: 0.107, 0.108, 0.109, etc.
- Supports both `.tar.gz` and `.zip` archive formats
- **Improved Binary Location Detection**:
- Step 1: Check for `$extracted/bin/nu` (subdirectory structure)
- Step 2: Check for `$extracted/nu` (flat structure)
- Step 3: Fallback search for any `nushell-*` subdirectory with `bin/nu`
- Step 4: Last resort recursive search for any executable named `nu`
- Validates binaries exist before using them
#### Plugin Registration Error Handling
- **Improved Plugin Registration with Version Mismatch Detection**:
- Captures both stdout and stderr from plugin add commands
- Detects version incompatibility errors: "is not compatible with version"
- Distinguishes between:
1. Successfully registered plugins
2. Version mismatch errors (skipped gracefully)
3. Other registration failures (reported with error details)
- Reports summary of: registered, incompatible, and failed plugins
- Installation continues successfully even with version mismatches
#### Shell Configuration PATH Update Messaging
- **Fixed Confusing PATH Update Messages**:
- Root cause: Script conflated "PATH found" with "PATH needs updating"
- Solution: Track two separate states:
- `updated=true` → PATH was ADDED to files (new)
- `path_found=true` → PATH already EXISTS in files (no change needed)
- Now shows clear, non-contradictory messages:
- ✅ "PATH is already configured..." (when found everywhere)
- ✅ "Shell configuration updated" (when just added)
- ⚠️ "Could not find..." (when file doesn't exist)
#### Installation Features
- **`--source-path` Option for Local Installation**:
- Install from local archive: `--source-path archive.tar.gz`
- Install from local directory: `--source-path /path/to/binaries`
- Default behavior: `--source-path` alone uses `./bin_archives`
- Works with both custom `--install-dir` and defaults
- **`--uninstall` with Configuration Management**:
- Prompts user to remove configuration: "Remove ~/.config/nushell? [y/N]"
- Removes all installed binaries and plugins
- Clean uninstall before fresh reinstall
- Preserves user choice (keep or remove config)
#### Documentation Updates
- **Updated CLAUDE.md** with:
- Install Script Architecture (DRY Design) section
- Source of truth location and symlink structure
- `--source-path` feature documentation
- Version-agnostic archive detection details

## [0.108.0] - 2025-10-19 (FINAL UPDATE)
### 🎯 Help System & Build Process Fixes (2025-10-19)
#### Help System Improvements
- **Added Version Update Module to Help System**:
- Version-update module now discoverable via `just help modules`
- Added to `just help` main output with key commands
- Included in `just help-all` workflow
- Full integration into help system navigation
#### New Help Commands
- **`just commands`**: New recipe showing all commands organized by group (alias for `just --list`)
- Shows [version-update] group with all 30+ update recipes
- Replaces need to manually run `just --list`
#### Build Process Fixes
- **Fixed Plugin Archive Creation Bug**:
- Phase 3 "No plugins found" warning fixed
- Root cause: `each` command returns null, breaking count logic
- Solution: Separated plugin listing from copying with proper filtering
- Filters out `.d` dependency files with `where type == "file"`
- Now correctly reports "Collected 26 plugins"
- **Fixed Tar Archive Path Issues**:
- Replaced unreliable `cd` + relative paths with `tar -C` + absolute paths
- Uses `pwd` with `path join` for robust path construction
- Improved error diagnostics showing tar exit codes and stderr
- Now properly creates bin archives (plugins-only-0.108.0-darwin-arm64.tar.gz)
- **Fixed Size Calculation Error**:
- Changed `(ls $archive_path).size` to `(ls $archive_path | get 0.size)`
- `ls` returns list of records, not single record
- Properly calculates archive file size in MB
#### Plugin Dependency Update Optimization
- **Fixed Unnecessary Plugin Rebuilds**:
- Root cause: `update_all_plugins.nu` always touched all Cargo.toml files
- Solution: Only save if content actually changed
- Compares original vs updated TOML before writing
- Preserves file timestamps for unchanged dependencies
- Result: Only plugins with real changes trigger rebuilds (hashes, highlight)
#### Files Modified
- `justfiles/help.just` - Added version-update module to help system
- `scripts/create_full_distribution.nu` - Fixed plugin collection filtering (exclude .d files)
- `scripts/create_distribution_packages.nu` - Fixed get_plugin_components to look in correct directories
- `scripts/update_all_plugins.nu` - Optimized to avoid unnecessary file touches
- `CHANGELOG.md` - Documented all fixes
#### Archive Content & Structure Fixes (Critical Fix)
- **Fixed nushell-full archive missing plugins**:
- Root cause: `get_plugin_components` looked in distribution directory (staging output)
- Solution: Look in `nu_plugin_*/target/release/` (actual binaries)
- Now includes: nushell binary + 20 plugin binaries + config + docs
- Archive now: `nushell-full-0.108.0-darwin-arm64.tar.gz` (complete)
- **Fixed plugins-only archive including .d files**:
- Root cause: `ls nu_plugin_*/target/release/nu_plugin_*` matched both binaries and `.d` metadata files
- Solution: Added two filters:
1. `where ($it.name | str ends-with ".d") == false` - exclude `.d` files
2. `where ($it.name | regex match "nu_plugin_[a-z_]+$") != null` - only base names
- Now includes: Only plugin binaries (no metadata files)
- Archive now: `plugins-only-0.108.0-darwin-arm64.tar.gz` (clean)
- **Fixed archive internal structure**:
- Changed: Directory names no longer include platform suffix
- Before: Archive contains `nushell-full-0.108.0-darwin-arm64/` directory
- After: Archive contains `nushell-full-0.108.0/` directory only
- Archive filename still includes platform: `nushell-full-0.108.0-darwin-arm64.tar.gz`
- Cleaner extraction: `tar xzf nushell-full-0.108.0-darwin-arm64.tar.gz` → creates `nushell-full-0.108.0/`
- **Removed CLAUDE.md from distribution**:
- Docs now only include: README.md, LICENSE
- CLAUDE.md is project-specific (not needed in distribution)
- Reduces archive size and keeps distribution focused
#### Impact
- ✅ Version-update commands now fully discoverable
- ✅ Phase 3 bin archive creation works correctly
- ✅ nushell-full archive contains nu + all plugins
- ✅ plugins-only archive contains only executable binaries
- ✅ Efficient plugin rebuild (no false positives)
- ✅ Better error diagnostics in build process
