column_not_found in Nushell

[azzamsa]

Hi 👋.

Coming from https://yazi-rs.github.io/docs/quick-start/#changing-working-directory-when-exiting-yazi. I get the error below.

Error: nu::shell::column_not_found

  × Cannot find column
    ╭─[/home/azzamsa/.config/nushell/env.nu:46:1]
 46 │ def --env x [] {
 47 │     let tmp = $"($env.TEMP)(char path_sep)yazi-cwd." + (random chars -l 5)
    ·                  ──┬─ ──┬─

    ╰────

I don't think we need this complicated code, mktemp works fine for me.

- let tmp = $"($env.TEMP)(char path_sep)yazi-cwd." + (random chars -l 5)
+ let tmp = (mktemp -t "yazi-cwd.XXXXX")

Btw, where to make a PR for the documentation website?
I can't find the related code.

Thanks!

Well, it was mktemp indeed before, but there's no mktemp on Windows, so it was replaced in yazi-rs/yazi-rs.github.io#18.

I want to know if Nushell has a simple way to cater to both Windows and Unix? I'm not familiar with it :)

As for the code, you can click "edit this page" link at the bottom of that document page.

It looks like we can get system info by sys command.

I think we can stick with mktemp, now that it's compatible with both Windows and Unix, after the Nushell 0.88.0 release.

I took the liberty to send a PR.

Congratz on the 0.2.0, by the way 😊

Merged, thank you! Let me close this discussion then.
