Migrating to Yazi v0.4.0

[sxyazi]

Note

v0.4 is still under development, and this issue will be updated accordingly as progress is made.

---

1. Reserve the term select for future use

See #1773 for details.

1.1 - Renamed select command to toggle

# keymap.toml
[manager]
- { on = "<Space>", run = "select --state=none" },
+ { on = "<Space>", run = "toggle" },

# keymap.toml
[manager]
- { on = "<C-r>", run = "select_all --state=none" },
+ { on = "<C-r>", run = "toggle_all" },

- { on = "<C-a>", run = "select_all --state=true" },
+ { on = "<C-a>", run = "toggle_all on" },

The documentation is now available for the two new commands: toggle command and toggle_all command.

1.2 - Renamed the select component to pick component

# yazi.toml / keymap.toml / theme.toml
- [select]
+ [pick]

2. Correct the misuse of the term ctime and unify others

See #1761 for details.

2.1 - Renamed ctime to btime for the linemode command

# keymap.toml
[manager]
- { on = [ "m", "c" ], run = "linemode ctime"  }
+ { on = [ "m", "b" ], run = "linemode btime" }

2.2 - Renamed created to btime, modified to mtime for the sort_by option

# yazi.toml
[manager]
- sort_by = "created"
+ sort_by = "btime"

- sort_by = "modified"
+ sort_by = "mtime"

2.3 - Renamed created to btime, modified to mtime for the sort command

# keymap.toml
[manager]
- { on = [ ",", "c" ], run = "sort created" }
+ { on = [ ",", "b" ], run = "sort btime" },

- { on = [ ",", "m" ], run = "sort modified" }
+ { on = [ ",", "m" ], run = "sort mtime" }

Lua API breaking changes

Renamed the created, modified, accessed, length, and permissions properties of the Cha

• created => btime
• modified => mtime
• accessed => atime
• length => len
• permissions => perm

Note that the old names are still available, but a deprecation warning will shown — they will be completely removed in the next major version 0.4.2. See #1761 for details.
