What are Zellij pipes?

Zellij pipes use the existing piping capabilities of shells to allow users to visualize and manipulate data from the command line inside plugins.

Example

In this example, I demonstrate how pipes work with an example plugin. Here we take the use-case of filtering and replacing large amounts of data in real time, piping it through multiple plugins to see the data being manipulated on-screen and finally getting it back on the command line so that we can do something useful with the results (eg. append them to a file).

https://vimeo.com/900103101

How does it work?

This PR adds two major interfaces: the zellij pipe CLI command and the new pipe lifecycle method for plugins.

The zellij pipe CLI command

The zellij pipe command (a shorter zpipe alias upcoming in a following PR) can be used to pipe data from the command line: eg. cat /tmp/my-large-file.txt | zellij pipe. If used without a plugin destination (see below), the data will be piped to all running plugins in the session. Plugins not implementing this new API or not listening to this specific message will ignore it.

If the zellij pipe command is directed at a specific plugin (eg. cat /tmp/my-large-file.txt | zellij pipe --plugin https://example.com/my-plugin.wasm) and the plugin is not running, Zellij will run this plugin (downloading it and requesting user permissions as usual) and only begin piping the data to the plugin once the plugin finished loading. The CLI pipe will be blocked until then (backpressure). A plugin can be force-loaded even if an instance is already running using the --launch-new flag. The command also introduces various additional optional flags to control how a new plugin will be launched (eg. floating, skipping plugin cache, etc.)

The pipe lifecycle method for plugins

On the plugin side, a new lifecycle method has been added (also to the ZellijTile interface) called pipe.

Here's an example:

fn pipe(&mut self, pipe_message: PipeMessage) -> bool {
    let mut should_render = false;
    match pipe_message.source {
        PipeSource::Cli(input_pipe_id) => {
            if let Some(payload) = pipe_message.payload {
                self.messages_from_cli.push(payload);
                should_render = true;
            }
            if self.paused {
                // backpressure, this will pause data from the CLI pipeline until the unblock_cli_pipe_input method will be called for this id
                // from this or another plugin
                block_cli_pipe_input(&input_pipe_id);
            }
            if self.should_print_to_cli_stdout {
                // this can happen anywhere, anytime, from multiple plugins and is not tied to data from STDIN
                // as long as the pipe is open, plugins with its ID can print arbitrary data to its STDOUT side, even if the input side is blocked
                cli_pipe_output(input_pipe_id, &payload);
            }
        }
        PipeSource::Plugin(source_plugin_id) => {
            // pipes can also arrive from other plugins
        }
    }
    should_render
}

Similar to the update method, the pipe method returns a bool, true if it would like to render itself, in which case the render function will be called as normal.
When a CLI pipe has ended, it will send a last message with None as its payload to the destination plugin(s).

Plugins can control the flow of data from the CLI with backpressure. Using the block_cli_pipe_input method, a plugin can tell a specific CLI pipe not to send more data until it is unblocked using the unblock_cli_pipe_input method. Both of these method accept the pipe_id provided by the PipeMessage struct. This is purely opt in though, as Zellij controls the backpressure by default, making sure more data is sent from the CLI only once all destination plugins have processed it and rendered (if they requested a re-render).

Plugins can also print data to the pipe's STDOUT, so that users would be able to do things like cat /tmp/my-big-file.txt | zellij pipe >> /tmp/my-destination-file. This writing is completely unbound to STDIN and can happen from any plugin who has the relevant pipe_id. This can be done with the new cli_pipe_output plugin API command.

The new pipe_message_to_plugin plugin API command

As mentioned above, plugins can also start their own pipes. These pipes behave exactly like the CLI pipes described above, being optionally directed at all plugins or at a specific plugin instance. This also gives plugins the ability to launch other plugins (or other instances of themselves) by starting a pipe to a new plugin, or including a unique configuration key as the plugin destination (similar effect to the --launch-new CLI flag described above, which does this internally).

The main differnce between plugin pipes and CLI pipes is that plugin pipes do not implement backpressure. Plugin authors who expect to pipe large amounts of data are encouraged to implement backpressure on their own (eg. only sending a message down a pipe once they got confirmation from the destination plugin that it has been processed).

Example:

pipe_message_to_plugin(
    MessageToPlugin::new("message_name")
        .with_plugin_url("https://example.com/my-plugin.wasm")
        .new_plugin_instance_should_have_pane_title("new_plugin_pane_title")
);

* refactor: Simplify transfer_rows_from_viewport_to_lines_above

next_lines is always consolidated to a single Row, which immediately
gets removed - we can remove some dead code as a result

* perf: Batch remove rows from the viewport for performance

Given a 1MB line catted into the terminal, a toggle-fullscreen +
toggle-fullscreen + close-pane + `run true` goes from ~9s to ~3s

* perf: Optimize Row::drain_until by splitting chars in one step

Given a 10MB line catted into the terminal, a toggle-fullscreen +
toggle-fullscreen + close-pane + `run true` goes from ~23s to ~20s

* refactor: Simplify `if let` into a `.map`

* refactor: There are only new saved coordinates when there were old ones

* refactor: Unify viewport transfer: use common variable names

* fix: Use same saved cursor logic in height resize as width

See #2182 for original introduction that only added it in one branch,
this fixes an issue where the saved cursor was incorrectly reset when
the real cursor was

* fix: Correct saved+real cursor calculations when reflowing long lines

* fix: Don't create canonical lines if cursor ends on EOL after resize

Previously if a 20 character line were split into two 10 character
lines, the cursor would be placed on the line after the two lines.
New characters would then be treated as a new canonical line. This
commit fixes this by biasing cursors to the end of the previous line.

* fix: for cursor index calculation in lines that are already wrapped

* chore: test for real/saved cursor position being handled separately

* chore: Apply cargo format

* chore(repo): update issue templates

* Bump rust version to 1.75.0 (#3039)

* rust-toolchain: Bump toolchain version to 1.69.0

which, compared to the previous 1.67.0, has the following impacts on
`zellij`:

- [Turn off debuginfo for build deps][2]: Increases build time (on my
  machine) from ~230 s in 1.67.0 to ~250 s now, *which is unexpected*

This version also changes [handling of the `default-features` flag][3]
when specifying dependencies in `Cargo.toml`. If a dependent crate
requires `default-features = true` on a crate that is required as
`default-features = false` further up the dependency tree, the `true`
setting "wins". We only specify `default-features = false` for three
crates total:

- `names`: This is used only by us
- `surf`: This is used only by us
- `vte`: This is also required by `strip-ansi-escapes`, but that has
  `default-features = false` as well

How this affects our transitive dependencies is unknown at this point.

[3]: rust-lang/cargo#11409

* rust-toolchain: Bump toolchain version to 1.70.0

which, compared to the previous 1.69.0, as the following impacts on
`zellij`:

1. [Enable sparse registry checkout for crates.io by default][1]

This drastically increases the time to first build on a fresh rust
installation/a rust installation with a clean cargo registry cache.
Previously it took about 75s to populate the deps/cache (with `cargo
fetch --locked` and ~100 MBit/s network), whereas now the same process
takes ~10 s.

2. [The `OnceCell` type is now part of std][2]

In theory, this would allow us to cut a dependency from `zellij-utils`,
but the `once_cell` crate is pulled in by another 16 deps, so there's no
point in attempting it right now.

Build times and binary sizes are unaffected by this change compared to
the previous 1.69.0 toolchain.

* rust-toolchain: Bump toolchain version to 1.75.0

which, compared to the previous 1.70.0, has the following impacts on
`zellij`:

1. [cross-crate inlining][8]

This should increase application performance, as functions can now be
inlined across crates.

2. [`async fn` in traits][9]

This would allow us to drop the `async_trait` dependency, but it is
currently still required by 3 other dependencies.

Build time in debug mode (on my own PC) is cut down from 256s to 189s
(for a clean build). Build time in release mode is cut down from 473s to
391s (for a clean build). Binary sizes only change minimally (825 MB ->
807 MB in debug, 29 MB -> 30 MB in release).

`zellij`:

- [Turn off debuginfo for build deps][2]: Increases build time (on my
  machine) from ~230 s in 1.67.0 to ~250 s now, *which is unexpected*

This version also changes [handling of the `default-features` flag][3]
when specifying dependencies in `Cargo.toml`. If a dependent crate
requires `default-features = true` on a crate that is required as
`default-features = false` further up the dependency tree, the `true`
setting "wins". We only specify `default-features = false` for three
crates total:

- `names`: This is used only by us
- `surf`: This is used only by us
- `vte`: This is also required by `strip-ansi-escapes`, but that has
  `default-features = false` as well

How this affects our transitive dependencies is unknown at this point.

[3]: rust-lang/cargo#11409

* rust-toolchain: Bump toolchain version to 1.70.0

which, compared to the previous 1.69.0, as the following impacts on
`zellij`:

1. [Enable sparse registry checkout for crates.io by default][1]

This drastically increases the time to first build on a fresh rust
installation/a rust installation with a clean cargo registry cache.
Previously it took about 75s to populate the deps/cache (with `cargo
fetch --locked` and ~100 MBit/s network), whereas now the same process
takes ~10 s.

2. [The `OnceCell` type is now part of std][2]

In theory, this would allow us to cut a dependency from `zellij-utils`,
but the `once_cell` crate is pulled in by another 16 deps, so there's no
point in attempting it right now.

Build times and binary sizes are unaffected by this change compared to
the previous 1.69.0 toolchain.

* rust-toolchain: Bump toolchain version to 1.75.0

which, compared to the previous 1.70.0, has the following impacts on
`zellij`:

1. [cross-crate inlining][8]

This should increase application performance, as functions can now be
inlined across crates.

2. [`async fn` in traits][9]

This would allow us to drop the `async_trait` dependency, but it is
currently still required by 3 other dependencies.

Build time in debug mode (on my own PC) is cut down from 256s to 189s
(for a clean build). Build time in release mode is cut down from 473s to
391s (for a clean build). Binary sizes only change minimally (825 MB ->
807 MB in debug, 29 MB -> 30 MB in release).
