Identical to vim.fn.iconv except:

  • There is no typval conversion.
  • Accepts any Lua string, whereas typval conversion may produce a Blob type which causes vim.fn.iconv to fail.
  • Does not rely on NUL byte for string length detection.
  • Can be run in fast events.
  • Can be run in Lua threads (via vim.loop.new_work).

Demo

Here is a screenshot of Gitsigns opening a PNG file that is managed under git.

(left vim.iconv, right vim.fn.iconv)

vim.fn.iconv:

   for i, l in ipairs(stdout) do
      -- Have to exclude Blob types, otherwise conversion will error.
      if vim.fn.type(l) == vim.v.t_string then
        stdout[i] = vim.fn.iconv(l, encoding, 'utf-8')
      end
    end

vim.iconv:

    for i, l in ipairs(stdout) do
      stdout[i] = vim.iconv(l, encoding, 'utf-8')

It is not sustainable for us to keep adding hand-crafted wrappers around Vimscript eval functions, just to avoid typval conversion, Blob, etc.

  • Accepts any Lua string, whereas typval conversion may produce a Blob type which causes vim.fn.iconv to fail.
  • Does not rely on NUL byte for string length detection.

Why can't these things be done by the Lua <=> Vimscript bridge? Can we annotate certain functions like f_iconv so that the bridge knows when we want a Lua caller to get this behavior?

vim.fn.iconv() should just do these things implicitly.

I've looked into this and we could annotate the function so it can run in a fast event, we should do this. I'll raise another PR at some point with all the relevant plumbing to do this for all functions that can. We'll need to somehow document this too. (EDIT: #18306)

The string typval conversion really doesn't work from Lua->vimscript for the main reason being typval strings don't store their length and need to rely on NUL termination.

It is not sustainable for us to keep adding hand-crafted wrappers around Vimscript eval functions, just to avoid typval conversion, Blob, etc.

I agree with this in general, but I don't think this needs to be a hard rule, especially for functions which are just basic bindings onto third-party libs (xdiff, iconv, etc).

I spent around two hours trying to fix f_iconv to support blob types, but didn't really get anywhere. Throwing together a basic Lua binding took about 30 minutes and only required standard Lua-C boilerplate.

I wouldn't think we need f_iconv to support blob. If we're in Lua we can skip blob conversion and use only Lua strings? (Assuming the "bridge plumbing" comes to fruition)

I think for this specific instance, I don't know how/if we can fix the bridge plumbing to make this work. The issue here is pretty integral to typval, and I would prefer to keep any changes to typval minimal/none.

Do you have any ideas?

Otherwise this PR is the best solution.

Lua strings store their length, typval strings do not. f_iconv only has access to typval arguments.

We could add typval_T.v_string_len. Then annotated "Lua bridge functions" such as f_iconv would need to set rettv->vval.v_string_len before they return.

Can't the Lua bridge generator code get the string length before passing it to Lua? It's not efficient, but if it works, we can think about optimizations later.

I had a go at sizing typval strings before I saw your edit, #18339. As you can see, it's pretty hideous and still crashes as the new size field isn't being properly initialized somewhere despite my efforts.

Not sure I fully understand this comment, but we need to pass the string length to typval and then pass it back to Lua, as f_iconv needs access to it. This is what #18339 does in addition to preventing conversion to Blob objects.

I believe messing with typval is the wrong call here. Not to mention any solution of this route will involve changes to f_iconv (and typval) which can't be applied back to Vim. In addition, anything in vim.fn.* can't (currently or ever) be run in Lua threads, which would be particularly useful for this function.

Let's leave legacy stuff as legacy and focus our efforts creating new better stuff using more robust and documented API's. It's nice the Lua<->Vimscript bridge exists, but this is really just a stop-gap rather than a first class solution. Ideas like #18306 are good because they are fairly low cost with high return.

With this PR we can effectively obsolete f_iconv which will only continue to exist for compat for older viml plugins, assuming any exist that use this function.

Looping back on this. I opened #18393 to get an actual picture of where we are with Lua stdlib parity with vimscript. Turns out we've implemented ~50%, and much of the remaining 50% won't likely want/need a Lua equivalent. Additionally, #18306 will relieve the need to add a large fraction of remaining function. So, from that I don't agree with the statement.

The benefits gained and issues resolved from a Lua binding of iconv (which are entirely specific to the function at hand, with maybe the exception of the sha256 function), fully justify its inclusion and spending more effort on the Lua-vimscript bridge isn't going to be time well spent (IMO).

That's fantastic news. Thank you for digging into that. If we have a way forward that doesn't involve continuing to hand-craft Lua versions of Vimscript functions, that removes the major concern here.

we need to pass the string length to typval and then pass it back to Lua, as f_iconv needs access to it.

"pass it back to Lua" is done by the bridge. Can't the bridge do a strlen() there?

Not to mention any solution of this route will involve changes to f_iconv (and typval) which can't be applied back to Vim.

We must not make architecture decisions based on this. Vim-compat is "best effort" and has been for at least 2 years. It has zero weight on choices that have big maintainability and future impact on Nvim. Vim's typval is also essentially frozen since Vimscript9.

Let's leave legacy stuff as legacy and focus our efforts creating new better stuff using more robust and documented API's. It's nice the Lua<->Vimscript bridge exists, but this is really just a stop-gap rather than a first class solution

We definitely should create better interfaces where the old one is broken. But rewriting all of the eval functions is a big waste of time. Those functions are just editor functions, there's nothing yucky about them except typval conversion. If we can make the bridge work well, then that legacy is massively valuable and avoids a huge amount of redundant work, maintenance burden, documentation burden, and user cognitive burden.

If vim.fn.iconv is broken in Lua (based on the screenshot), we should throw an error when it's called from Lua.

We already have a mechanism to error out when vim.fn.foo is called when vim.api.nvim_foo exists (#13875) -- maybe that check can be extended?

iconv_string accesses p_ambw and p_emoji internally. Therefore, it is not thread-safe. I do not agree with exposing vim.iconv to threads as it is currently implemented, although the cases where it becomes a problem may be rare.

I'm not sure what the code in question is intended to do, but I don't think it makes sense to replace characters that cannot be converted with vim.iconv() with the number of cell widths "?".

If vim.fn.iconv is broken in Lua (based on the screenshot), we should throw an error when it's called from Lua.

It's only broken for strings that contain NUL characters, and this is already documented (more or less):

		Note that Vim uses UTF-8 for all Unicode encodings, conversion
		from/to UCS-2 is automatically changed to use UTF-8.  You
		cannot use UCS-2 in a string anyway, because of the NUL bytes.

This new version doesn't have this limitation.

There might be applications that don't need to worry about handling NUL bytes, so I think it would be a mistake to now suddenly make those applications error.

"pass it back to Lua" is done by the bridge. Can't the bridge do a strlen() there?

strlen simply counts characters until it reaches NUL. Lua strings are allowed to contain NUL, so strlen won't work properly. The size needs to be carried the whole way through, it's information that can't be reproduced once it is gone.

But rewriting all of the eval functions is a big waste of time.

I dunno. Rewriting typval seems like a bigger waste of time (and less enjoyable). We could probably just implement everything we don't have a Lua version of in vim.fn.*, and (IMO) it would probably take less time than re-architecting typval to work in Lua's full domain. I may be underestimating, but I don't think there's a huge amount when only considering the functions we would actually want to use. Not that I think we should do this, because we simply don't need to. It's just much easier to re-implement the edge-case functions that have issues.

Also given how the Lua-C API is a real documented API, these new versions will be much more approachable to new-comers. It's how I got involved. I looked at nvim/lua/treesitter.c, Googled Lua-C API, and I was away.

Those functions are just editor functions, there's nothing yucky about them except typval conversion.

We still don't have a solution to the fact that typval doesn't have boolean values, which makes using them in Lua awkward and error-prone if you forget to compare against 0 .... which I've done many times! Not really sure how/if we can approach this in the bridge.

If we can make the bridge work well, then that legacy is massively valuable and avoids a huge amount of redundant work, maintenance burden, documentation burden, and user cognitive burden.

I agree it is valuable, but for me it is more "we can learn from this" rather than "we can use and improve this". I would hope eventually vim.fn.* will become obsolete and thus deprecated (and only kept for legacy), which should remove those burdens.

One example, today I found out bufwinid() only works for the current tabpage, which I think is a bit weird. Why only the current tabpage? If we want to fix this, do we add a new option to the eval version of bufwinid, or can we just make something new that does and behaves exactly as we want with all the nice Lua ergonomics? I know which I'd prefer 😉 .

Anyway thanks for approving this.

Crash(segmentation fault) with the following steps:

nvim --clean
:lua vim.iconv('a', 'foo', 'bar')

I think it is necessary to do the same as the following process of f_iconv, or call luaL_error() if ret is NULL. I think iconv() in vim script is insufficient for some purposes, such as not being able to know if there are characters that cannot be converted. It might be better to change it to vim.iconv({string}, {from}, {to} [, {opt}]) and allow fail and replacement character to be specified by opt.

@erw7:

  • Fixed the crash
  • Added an opts argument with a fail field
  • Didn't add replacement text as that is less-trivial and can be done in a future PR
  • Added a few tests
  • Also changed the return to be nil when conversion fails as that is more "Lua".

Removed the opts field, instead just check for nil on the return value to know if conversion failed.

Identical to vim.fn.iconv except that there is no typval conversion and
thus accepts **any** Lua string (UTF-16/32), whereas typval conversion
may produce a Blob type which causes vim.fn.iconv to fail. Also does not
rely on NUL byte for string length detection.
