Hello @exitnode !
We use the same workaround for the time/todotxt pkgsrc package (and the following sed(1) incantation does the trick!: sed -E -e 's,([(| ])sed ,\1gsed ,g
)
What about introducing a ${SED} variable and replace all sed invocations with that?
(If that sounds reasonable please let me know and I'll try to write a possible patch about that!)
Thank you!

What about introducing a ${SED} variable
You don't need that.
let the user define which sed version to use, e.g. in
.todo/config
You can define a sed
function in the config file and export
it; todo.sh
and any add-ons launched by it will then use that one:
export originalSed=$(which sed)
sed()
{
# Assumption: The in-place option is passed as the first argument.
if [ "$1" = '-i.bak' ]; then
shift
# Assumption: Only a single file is processed, and it is passed as the
# last argument.
file=${!#}
tmpFile=/tmp/todo.sh-sed.$$
"$originalSed" "$@" > "$tmpFile" && mv "$tmpFile" "$file"
else
"$originalSed" "$@"
fi
}
export -f sed
This one emulates the sed -i
without requiring gsed
. If you have the latter, the override becomes even simpler:
sed()
{
# Use gsed because it understands the -i in-place option.
gsed "$@"
}
export -f sed

@inkarkat should we include this in the documentation somewhere?

@karbassi I think this is only the first or maybe second time this came up. BSD isn't a terribly common platform, and most users are quite knowledgeable (and quite used to dealing with these compatibility issues). I'd wait until we see another such question, and now this should be more discoverable through this issue.
@iamleot Are you really using BSD as your sole platform and intend to do todo.sh dev work? I once used FreeBSD to verify the compatibility with Mac OS (don't have any Apple hardware, and Gina always tested on Mac) - fortunately, Mac OS has suitable sed
and awk
versions. The (huge) downside of @SED@
is that one is forced to run make
; the script won't work without it any longer. Second: If you automate this, do you assume gsed
is available, or even implement both gsed
and the other workaround?! To me, this adds a lot of complexity without much benefit.

I created a linked PR that solves this, but it does not export the function for use by add-ons. This is because the new sed
function's carries assumptions that may not remain true in all add-on code. Therefore, the scope of this fix includes code within this file's todo.sh
only, which is probably good enough anyways.
