From 26c918d03f5b38df900316c0601065ec1ea96264 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: William Boman Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2022 02:27:23 +0100 Subject: fix(lua): always return nil values in vim.tbl_get when no results While `return` and `return nil` are for most intents and purposes identical, there are situations where they're not. For example, calculating the amount of values via the `select()` function will yield varying results: ```lua local function nothing() return end local function null() return nil end select('#', nothing()) -- 0 select('#', null()) -- 1 ``` `vim.tbl_get` currently returns both nil and no results, which makes it unreliable to use in certain situations without manually accounting for these discrepancies. --- test/functional/lua/vim_spec.lua | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'test/functional/lua') diff --git a/test/functional/lua/vim_spec.lua b/test/functional/lua/vim_spec.lua index e390619a5a..90eccc49c8 100644 --- a/test/functional/lua/vim_spec.lua +++ b/test/functional/lua/vim_spec.lua @@ -512,6 +512,8 @@ describe('lua stdlib', function() eq(NIL, exec_lua("return vim.tbl_get({ unindexable = function () end }, 'unindexable', 'missing_key')")) eq(NIL, exec_lua("return vim.tbl_get({}, 'missing_key')")) eq(NIL, exec_lua("return vim.tbl_get({})")) + eq(1, exec_lua("return select('#', vim.tbl_get({}))")) + eq(1, exec_lua("return select('#', vim.tbl_get({ nested = {} }, 'nested', 'missing_key'))")) end) it('vim.tbl_extend', function() -- cgit
