# shellcheck shell=bash
#
# lib_std.sh - Foundation library for Bash scripts
#              Requires Bash 4.2 or higher.
#
# This library provides a standardized set of functions for common tasks,
# ensuring consistency and robustness across multiple scripts.
#
# Areas covered:
#     - PATH manipulation
#     - Logging (with levels and colors)
#     - Error handling and stack tracing
#     - Bash version check helpers
#     - Library importing
#     - Miscellaneous helpers
#
# Quick Reference
# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Sourcing:
#   source "<repo>/lib/bash/std/lib_std.sh"
#
# Caller-visible metadata:
#   BASE_BASH_LIBS_VERSION
#                    Package version read from VERSION or the embedded release
#                    metadata carried with installed/copy-only artifacts.
#   BASE_BASH_LIBS_COMMIT
#                    Full source commit when the package came from a checkout;
#                    embedded release commit or unknown for copied artifacts.
#   BASE_BASH_LIBS_DIRTY_STATE
#                    clean, dirty, or unknown source-tree state.
#   BASE_BASH_LIBS_PROVENANCE
#                    checkout, release-artifact, source-archive, copy, or unknown.
#   BASE_BASH_LIBS_STDLIB_LOADED
#                    Set to 1 after lib_std.sh has been loaded successfully.
#
# Runtime globals such as BASE_BASH_LIBS_SCRIPT_ARGS and BASE_BASH_LIBS_SCRIPT_DIR are published only
# by base_init. Sourcing this file never consumes or rewrites "$@".
#
# Core helpers:
#   base_std_run [opts] cmd ...
#                                # Safe command runner with dry-run, timeout, retry & failure handling.
#   base_std_exit_if_error rc msg...      # Log + exit when rc != 0 (preserves original status).
#   base_std_fatal_error msg...           # Convenience wrapper: exit with last status or 1.
#   base_std_register_cleanup_hook fn # Run a cleanup function from the shared EXIT trap.
#   base_std_register_cleanup_path p  # Remove owned files/directories from EXIT cleanup.
#   base_std_register_cleanup_path --unsafe p
#                                # Explicitly opt out of path-identity proof.
#   base_std_unregister_cleanup_path p
#                                # Drop files/directories from the shared EXIT cleanup list.
#   base_std_make_temp_file var [pfx] # Create a temp file and store its path in var.
#   base_std_make_temp_dir var [pfx]  # Create a temp directory and store its path in var.
#   base_std_command_path var cmd     # Resolve an external command path without exiting.
#   base_std_function_exists fn       # Predicate for defined Bash functions.
#   base_std_assert_variable_name name    # Validate Bash variable-name arguments.
#   base_std_assert_associative_array map # Validate caller-declared associative arrays.
#   base_require_version min_version
#                                # Exit clearly if the loaded library is too old.
#   base_std_add_to_path [-n] [-p] dir    # Append/prepend unique PATH entries.
#   base_std_set_log_level [LEVEL]        # Adjust terminal verbosity (FATAL..VERBOSE).
#   base_std_set_log_category_level -l category LEVEL
#                                # Gate a category independently of its sinks.
#   base_std_log_is_enabled [-l category] LEVEL
#                                # Test whether any configured sink accepts a level.
#   base_std_log_info/debug/... msgs      # Structured logging (color in interactive shells).
#   base_std_safe_touch file [...]        # touch wrapper that returns on failure (same for base_std_safe_truncate).
#   assert_* utilities           # Validation helpers (base_std_assert_not_null / base_std_assert_integer / ...).
#
# Patterns:
#   base_std_run some_cmd             # exits on failure; BASE_BASH_LIBS_DRY_RUN=true/1/yes/on prints instead.
#   base_std_run --timeout 30 some_cmd
#                                # bounds the command attempt to 30 seconds.
#   base_std_run --max-attempts 3 --retry-delay 2 some_cmd
#                                # retries transient failures.
#   some_cmd || base_std_fatal_error ...  # preserves failing exit code before terminating.
#   base_std_add_to_path -p "/opt/tools"  # inject directories without duplicates.
#
# Notes:
#   - Call base_init <result_array> [--source <script>] [--] [argv...]
#     before using stateful helpers. It strips --debug-wrapper,
#     --verbose-wrapper, --utc-wrapper, and --color into the result array.
#   - --verbose-wrapper is deprecated compatibility surface; prefer --debug-wrapper.
#   - BASE_BASH_LIBS_BOOTSTRAP_SOURCE is accepted as a source-path fallback by the
#     explicit initializer, not consumed while this file is sourced.

# base_std_import - Sources package-relative library files.
#
# Every supported consumer uses this loader. Paths are relative to the loaded
# package's `lib/bash` root, never to the caller's cwd or script directory. The
# loader validates the path, resolves symlinks, rejects package-root escapes,
# tracks loading state, and sources each module at most once. During source,
# top-level `declare` statements are promoted to globals so module authors do
# not need function-scope implementation knowledge; declarations in functions
# retain their normal Bash behavior after the module is loaded.

#
# base_std_run - Safely executes a simple command with its arguments.
#
# This function is designed to be a secure and robust replacement for using
# `eval` or simple command execution. It correctly handles arguments with
# spaces and special characters.
#
# Features:
#   - Secure: Does not use `eval`, preventing arbitrary code execution.
#   - Argument Safe: Correctly handles spaces and special characters in arguments.
#   - Dry-Run Mode: If the global variable BASE_BASH_LIBS_DRY_RUN (or BASE_BASH_LIBS_DRY_RUN) is truthy, it
#     prints the command instead of running it.
#   - Optional Timeout: `--timeout N` bounds each command attempt to N seconds.
#   - Optional Retry: `--max-attempts N` retries failed commands up to N total
#     attempts, optionally sleeping `--retry-delay N` seconds between attempts.
#   - Exit on Failure: By default, it will exit the script if the command
#     returns a non-zero exit code.
#   - Optional No-Exit: If an initial argument is `--no-exit`, the function
#     will not exit on failure, allowing the calling script to handle the error.
#   - Optional Quiet Probe: If an initial argument is `--quiet`, handled
#     failures do not log warnings. This is intended for expected probe
#     failures and is most useful with `--no-exit`.
#   - Protected Diagnostics: `--sensitive` prevents framework-generated
#     diagnostics from rendering the command arguments. `--safe-display`
#     supplies an optional caller-vetted, single-line operation label.
#
# Usage:
#   base_std_run [options] command [arg1] [arg2] ...
#   base_std_run --sensitive [--safe-display label] [options] -- command [arg1] ...
#
# Options:
#   --no-exit   If provided as an initial argument, the script will not
#               exit if the command fails. The function will return the
#               command's original exit code.
#   --quiet     If provided as an initial argument with `--no-exit`, suppress
#               the warning normally logged when the command fails.
#   --timeout N
#               Bound each command attempt to N seconds.
#   --max-attempts N
#               Try the command up to N total times. Defaults to 1.
#   --retry-attempts N
#               Alias for --max-attempts.
#   --retry-delay N
#               Sleep N seconds between failed attempts. Defaults to 0.
#   --sensitive  Hide the command and all arguments from framework-generated
#               dry-run, retry, timeout, and final-failure diagnostics. A
#               literal `--` must separate runner options from the command.
#   --safe-display LABEL
#               Add a printable ASCII operation label that is non-empty and
#               does not begin with `-`. Valid only with `--sensitive`.
#
# Examples:
#   # Run a simple command. Exits if `ls` fails.
#   base_std_run ls -l /tmp
#
#   # Run a command with spaces in an argument.
#   base_std_run touch "a file with spaces.txt"
#
#   # Run a command but don't exit the script on failure.
#   if ! base_std_run --no-exit grep "not_found" /etc/hosts; then
#       log "INFO" "The text was not found, but we are continuing."
#   fi
#
#   # In a script where BASE_BASH_LIBS_DRY_RUN=true, this will only print the command.
#   BASE_BASH_LIBS_DRY_RUN=true
#   base_std_run rm -rf /some/important/path
#
#   # Protect credentials in framework-generated diagnostics.
#   base_std_run --sensitive --safe-display "upload release asset" -- \
#       curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $token" "$upload_url"
