Introduce `VariableName` enum to simplify Zed task templating
management: now all the variables can be looked up statically and can be
checked/modified in a centralized way: e.g. `ZED_` prefix is now added
for all such custom vars.
Release Notes:
- N/A
These tasks are not considered for reruns with `task::Rerun`.
This PR tears a bunch of stuff up around tasks:
- `menu::SecondaryConfirm` for tasks is gonna spawn a task without
storing it in history instead of being occupied by oneshot tasks. This
is done so that cmd-clicking on the menu item actually does something
meaningful.
- `menu::UseSelectedQuery` got moved into picker, as tasks are it's only
user (and it doesn't really make sense as a menu action).
TODO:
- [x] add release note
- [x] Actually implement the core of this feature, which is spawning a
task without saving it in history, lol.
Fixes#9804
Release Notes:
- Added "fire-and-forget" task spawning; `menu::SecondaryConfirm` in
tasks modal now spawns a task without registering it as the last spawned
task for the purposes of `task::Rerun`. By default you can spawn a task
in this fashion with cmd+enter or by holding cmd and clicking on a task
entry in a list. Spawning oneshots has been rebound to `option-enter`
(under a `picker::ConfirmInput` name). Fixes#9804 (breaking change)
- Moved `menu::UseSelectedQuery` action to `picker` namespace (breaking
change).
Previously it expanded to a label, which was correct for oneshots, but
wrong for everything else.
Release Notes:
- Improved UseSelectedQuery (shift-enter) action for tasks modal by
making it substitute a full command and not the task label.
- Fixed one-shot tasks having duplicates in tasks modal.
This PR also introduces built-in tasks for Rust and Elixir. Note that
this is not a precedent for future PRs to include tasks for more
languages; we simply want to find the rough edges with tasks & language
integrations before proceeding to task contexts provided by extensions.
As is, we'll load tasks for all loaded languages, so in order to get
Elixir tasks, you have to open an Elixir buffer first. I think it sort
of makes sense (though it's not ideal), as in the future where
extensions do provide their own tasks.json, we'd like to limit the # of
tasks surfaced to the user to make them as relevant to the project at
hand as possible.
Release Notes:
- Added built-in tasks for Rust and Elixir files.
This PR supplements tasks with additional environment variables; ideally
we'll be able to write a task like:
`cargo test -p $ZED_CURRENT_PACKAGE -- $ZED_CURRENT_FUNCTION`
- [x] Flesh out multibuffer interactions
- [x] Add ZED_SYMBOL detection based on tree-sitter queries
- [ ] Add release note and demo
- [x] Figure out a solution for rerun dilemma - should `task: rerun`
reevaluate contexts for tasks?
This PR introduced the following variables:
- ZED_COLUMN - current line column
- ZED_ROW - current line row
and the following, which are available for buffers with associated
files:
- ZED_WORKTREE_ROOT - absolute path to the root of the current worktree.
- ZED_FILE - absolute path to the file
- ZED_SYMBOL - currently selected symbol; should match the last symbol
shown in a symbol breadcrumb (e.g. `mod tests > fn test_task_contexts`
should be equal to ZED_SYMBOL of `test_task_contexts`). Note that this
isn't necessarily a test function or a function at all.
Also, you can use them in `cwd` field of definitions (note though that
we're using https://docs.rs/subst/latest/subst/#features for that, so
don't expect a full shell functionality to work); the syntax should
match up with your typical Unix shell.
Release Notes:
- Added task contexts, which are additional environment variables set by
Zed for task execution; task content is dependent on the state of the
editor at the time the task is spawned.

I ran into this when trying out which keybindings work and accidentally
added empty tasks. They get then added to the task inventory and
displayed in the picker.
Release Notes:
- Fixed empty tasks being added to the list of tasks when using `task:
spawn`
