repl,readline: improve unicode support and tab completion by BridgeAR · Pull Request #31288 · nodejs/node

BridgeAR · 2020-01-09T21:35:42Z

This reduces the number of write operations used during tab
completion.
The tab completion calculated the string width using the length
of the string instead of using the actual width. That is fixed.
The key decoder is now capable of handling characters composed
out of two code points. That reduces the number of "keypress"
events that are emitted which again lowers the amount of writes
triggered.

~~This is currently blocked by #31112 (moving the charLengthAt function).~~

1. This reduces the number of write operations used during tab completion. 2. The tab completion calculated the string width using the length of the string instead of using the actual width. That is fixed. 3. The key decoder is now capable of handling characters composed out of two code points. That reduces the number of "keypress" events that are emitted which again lowers the amount of writes triggered.

This simplifies code that was more complicated than it had to be and removes code that should never be reached.

@jasnell I pushed another commit that cleans up some code. It would have conflicted with the former commit if I would have opened another PR for it instead. PTAL.

- getStringWidth(this.line[this.cursor]) > 1) {
- rows++;
- cols = 0;
- }


Our cursor can't be between two code points. We move the cursor by the correct length since a while.

LGTM but I'm going to kick off a CITGM just to make sure the readline changes aren't breaking in an unexpected way.

@BridgeAR should this go back to v12.x? I'll add the label but feel free to swap out.
