# Description
This adds input/output types to custom commands. These are input/output
pairs that related an input type to an output type.
For example (a single int-to-int input/output pair):
```
def foo []: int -> int { ... }
```
You can also have multiple input/output pairs:
```
def bar []: [int -> string, string -> list<string>] { ... }
```
These types are checked during definition time in the parser. If the
block does not match the type, the user will get a parser error.
This `:` to begin the input/output signatures should immediately follow
the argument signature as shown above.
The PR also improves type parsing by re-using the shape parser. The
shape parser is now the canonical way to parse types/shapes in user
code.
This PR also splits `extern` into `extern`/`extern-wrapped` because of
the parser limitation that a multi-span argument (which Signature now
is) can't precede an optional argument. `extern-wrapped` now takes the
required block that was previously optional.
# User-Facing Changes
The change to `extern` to split into `extern` and `extern-wrapped` is a
breaking change.
# Tests + Formatting
<!--
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used -A
clippy::needless_collect -A clippy::result_large_err` to check that
you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass
- `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path
crates/nu-std"` to run the tests for the standard library
> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr
> ```

# After Submitting
<!-- If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the
PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date.

Nushell REPL
This directory contains the main Nushell REPL (read eval print loop) as part of the CLI portion of Nushell, which creates the nu binary itself.
Current versions of the nu binary will use the Nu argument parsing logic to parse the commandline arguments passed to nu, leaving the logic here to be a thin layer around what the core libraries.
