MasterDuke what os are you using? 01:29
protium Linux 01:31
Gentoo, specifically 01:32
For the most part, on stable branch
MasterDuke hmm, and how did you get moar? 01:38
01:40 perlawhirl left, sammers left
protium Portage 01:40
The default build environment (like ports for BSD)
2016.10
MasterDuke hmm, not sure. i don't use gentoo, but i'm pretty sure others have successfully built moar on it 01:43
01:43 cdg joined 01:44 bjz joined
MasterDuke have you tried just cloning it and building manually? 01:44
protium Well, no, but I guess I could do that
In general, I prefer staying within the package management system for obvious reasons (easier to maintain, keep sane env) 01:45
You mean clone it hot off the main branch on github?
MasterDuke yeah
if you don't specify a prefix it'll keep everything in its directory, you don't need to worry about polluting your filesystem 01:46
can at least figure out if it's your system in general or the portage script 01:47

seatek if I override a method in a child class... is there a way to call the original (non-overridden) method from the child? 04:42
PARENT.method-name doesn't error or warn about anything... but it doesn't call the method either 04:54
04:54 djbkd left
MasterDuke m: class A { method a() { say "parent" } }; class B is A { method a() { say "child"; callsame }}; B.a 04:56

seatek ha! just "callsame"! wow. nice. :) thanks MasterDuke++ ! 05:01
i never would have thought to look for that in the docs under functional programming' 05:02
05:03 pierre_ joined
MasterDuke depends what you want to do though. that only works if you want to call the parent's method from the overridden child's method 05:04
05:05 mayathecat left
seatek perfect for me! but yeah, i see what you mean. i just wanted to keep the parent method as the "default" and for special cases, override it, but still not have to redefine all the "defaults".. so callsame as the first thing worked perfectly 05:05
(i never can remember if i have to update things in more than 1 place later on) 05:06
never trust yourself is my motto
MasterDuke m: class A { method a() { say "parent a" } }; class B is A { method a() { say "child a" }; method b() { say "child b"; self.^mro[1].a }}; B.b
camelia rakudo-moar c963ef: OUTPUT«child b␤parent a␤»
05:07 mayathecat joined, pierre_ left
seatek i knkew there had to be something with the mro 05:07
though why element 1 i have no idea
MasterDuke i would think there's a way with PARENT somehow, but i don't remember what it is 05:08
m: class A { method a() { say "parent a" } }; class B is A { method a() { say "child a" }; method b() { say "child b"; self.^mro }}; B.b
camelia rakudo-moar c963ef: OUTPUT«child b␤»
MasterDuke m: class A { method a() { say "parent a" } }; class B is A { method a() { say "child a" }; method b() { say "child b"; say self.^mro }}; B.b
camelia rakudo-moar c963ef: OUTPUT«child b␤((B) (A) (Any) (Mu))␤»
seatek I tried PARENT::method method() and PARENT. the same
i even tried SUPER ;) 05:09
MasterDuke [1] because it's the parent, [0] would be self, [2] grandparent, etc
seatek hey, that's tidy and makes sense
05:10 mayathecat left
seatek would your parent at ^mro[1] have a ^mro[1] to their parent, and just no sense of the child? 05:12
MasterDuke m: class A { method a() { say "parent" } }; class B is A { method a() { say "child" }; method b() { say "b"; say self.^mro } }; class C is B { method c() { say self.^mro } }; B.b; C.c 05:13

05:14 djbkd joined
seatek that's a lot to stuff into places. is C's stuff refencing B's stuff? It must keep its own scope in each... but compiling the code... this gets complex. i suppose it's ok it took so long 05:20
05:31 Cabanossi left 05:34 Cabanossi joined
seatek I started to add documentation for callsame to the secion on overriding methods... but i'm not sure i should. what if people wanted to call with parameters... then they'd have to go the mro route, and that's a little funny 05:34
05:39 Herby left 05:41 perlawhirl joined 05:48 djbkd left
seatek well, i'm going to put mention of it in there, anyway. i spent a lot of time looking for how to do it and i think it's probably not that uncommon. but mabye people won't want it there because it's a little funny 05:48

samcv i love perl6 so much ♥ 08:57
promises are amazing, channels supplies. it makes me so happy 08:58
just came here to say this :P
seatek samcv: i can't wait to start playing with some of that :) 08:59
samcv Proc::Async is great too. though i need to figure out how to get proc::async to capture stderr from rakudo 09:00
i'm running perl6 on moarvm from proc async, i can capture stderr if i do like: note "message"; to print to stderr, but if there's an error in the code i don't see it
but the perl6 bin is a shell file, so maybe i will have different result if i just don't go through that 09:02
nope that didn't fix it hm 09:05
09:07 firstdayonthejob joined 09:09 labster left
samcv if i run it using the shell and proc async i capture the stderr of what i think is the rakudo compilier and moarvm 09:12
so i guess i'll do that for now
RabidGravy I've got at least one module that has a test that runs a Perl 6 program 09:19
Audio::StreamThing does it to have the icecast client in a different process 09:20
samcv does it use a shell when it runs it? 09:21

camelia ( no output )
FROGGS using nativecast like in the SDL2 example might also be nice, because you'd have a specialized Foo "subclass" then, instead of accessing the union members as $foo.u.name 11:46

tyil does anyone know how I can add a header to a GET request made with HTTP::UserAgent? I currently have the following snippet termbin.com/bqa9 13:16
13:16 kurahaupo__ is now known as kurahaupo
tyil but if I simply pass the %headers as the 2nd arg, it cannot resolve the caller 13:17
lizmat RabidGravy might know 13:19
RabidGravy you can do it
though I don't know what "pass the %headers as the 2nd arg, it cannot resolve the caller" means 13:20
an example of it failing would be good 13:22
13:22 cdg left
tyil Use netcat. 13:22
woops 13:23
wrong copy/paste
termbin.com/657y 13:24
timotimo it seems like it wants the header fields as named arguments
so it expects you to flatten your headers hash 13:25
RabidGravy er
you are passing a Hash
you just pass them items as normal named arguments
so something like "$ua.get('foo.com/', Gorilla => 'bananas')" 13:27
that's what the slurpy *%headers does
tyil ah
it doesnt fail to run if I pass it like that
RabidGravy I know
tyil getting a 400 reply now, so I seem to have something to fix still, but now I can continue on that 13:28
thanks
RabidGravy :)
I don't like that AUTOGEN malarkey though, methinks some prototypes in there might be called for 13:29
tyil, if you want finer grained control of the request, it;s make an HTTP::Request object and then pass that to $ua.request 13:30
.get is just a helper for the simple case really
there are also a bunch of helper subs in HTTP::Request::Common for the most usual types of requests 13:32
13:38 inokenty joined
RabidGravy adds an issue to HUA to remind him to do the prototypes 13:39
tyil with the HTTP::Request and HTTP::UserAgent.request() it works 13:42
thanks a ton :>
tbrowder hi, #perl6 13:48
question of the day ref arrays: is returning a generated container from a sub expensive as compared to filling an input container with the generated data? 13:52
timotimo should be about the same cost 13:53
though if you can re-use the input container a lot, you can get a bit more performance out of the whole thing
but it shouldn't be much

RabidGravy ajr_, I may have done but let me try 16:54
is it by any chance complaining about the compiler?

RabidGravy ajr_, yeah I have "gcc (Raspbian 4.8.2-21~rpi3rpi1) 4.8.2" I believe the default is something 3ish 16:57

RabidGravy but just building to check that nothing gone broken in the meantime anyway 16:58
DrForr Interesting, my error must be to do with roles then.
RabidGravy ajr_, so if you haven't done so already, it's install the gcc-4.8 package and then update the 'gcc' alternative to make that one the default gcc 17:01
17:01 meteorologytoday left
japhb tadzik: Ah, thanks. You mentioned checking it after a movie, and I was thinking "Wow, heck of a long movie!" ;-) 17:02
ajr_ DrForr - The process manager showed around 700 of the available 735MB at the highest point I saw. My attention was probably distracted by some exciting paint drying.
RabidGravy - I just updated to what I believe is the latest iteration of the OS, but I'll check for the gcc version. 17:03
RabidGravy I think the gcc version is crucial here 17:04
I'm just updating a windows machine that hasn't been updated for a year and a half 17:05
japhb tadzik: I am actually starting to use it in my Terminal-Print example: github.com/japhb/Terminal-Print/bl.../rpg-ui.p6 (That's not PR'ed back to the upstream yet, because I'm using development of the example to drive API and performance improvements to Terminal-Print itself.)
RabidGravy it's rather tedious
DrForr You're in better hands than mine, as I said I haven't tried yet. I got a new RPi from OSCON swag so I'll probably try later this week.
ajr_ RabidGravy: What are the symptoms of the gcc problem? What error messages at what stage? 17:08
RabidGravy I can't remember to be honest
it was like a year and a half ago :)
ajr_ Never mind, I was just hoping to whittle down the possibilities. I'm lucky to remember stuff a week and half ago. :-)* 17:09
stmuk_ ISTR the rPI gcc was quite dramatically broken
17:09 qub joined
RabidGravy but with the gcc version above and an otherwise stock Raspbian it builds fine 17:09

geekosaur you still have nto answered my question. and ASCII 04 is not actually EOF. it is a command *to the terminal driver* that causes it to produce a short read to the program 18:27
Hotkeys m: say grep * < 1000, map * ** 2, (1, 3 ... *) 18:28
camelia rakudo-moar 9a6379: OUTPUT«(...)␤»
Hotkeys m: say eager grep * < 1000, map * ** 2, (1, 3 ... *)
why doesn't this work?
camelia rakudo-moar 9a6379: OUTPUT«(timeout)»
jast because it applies the test against an infinite series 18:29
that's my guess, anyway. grep doesn't know that it can abort after the first test that returns false...

Is there a convenient way to do squares up to X with a sequence alone?
lizmat how many do you need?
Hotkeys (1 ** 2, 2 ** 2 ... $x) essentially 18:31
lizmat Hotkeys: slice it 18:32
m say (1,2,4...*)[^10]
m: say (1,2,4...*)[^10]
camelia rakudo-moar e42b68: OUTPUT«(1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512)␤»
lizmat m: my $x = 20; say (1,2,4...*)[^$x] 18:33
camelia rakudo-moar e42b68: OUTPUT«(1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024 2048 4096 8192 16384 32768 65536 131072 262144 524288)␤»
jast that works if the number of elements is known; in this case it would happen to work because you can determine the correct limit using a logarithm 18:34
Hotkeys specifically the sequence I'm doing is squares of odd numbers actually so 18:35
jast ...[^log(1000)/log(2)]
Hotkeys 1², 3², 5² ... 1000

jast no wait, that doesn't make sense :) 18:35

qub geekosaur: i need to enter arbitrary text line by line in terminal and send it to program by pressing ctrl+d 18:36
jast I'm too tired to think about this
qub: so just keep reading and whenever you get a short read, you know that the next read will start another file. unfortunately there will be no way to signal "this is the last file" but if your stream truly is infinite that shouldn't matter 18:38

18:40 FROGGS left 18:41 canopus left
geekosaur jast, I think the point is that it stops after the first eof, which is a common thing that levels above the system call (such as libuv) do on terminals so that xxx^D works as expected by naïve programs) 18:41
but I suspect this is one of those things where we need to do something to libuv, and can't 18:42
jast I just tried with a tiny P5 program, I can keep reading beyond the first ^D
oh yeah, libuv, didn't think about the internals :)

lolo78 Hi everyone. 21:29
A person that I know wants to rewrite his Perl 5 application in Perl 6. Part of it is a GUI written with Web technologies and using HTML5+ Canvas + Jquery, etc. I have no experience with Web development, especially not in P6. Is there any module or framework that you would recommend?
moritz lolo78: the state of P6 web frameworks is not very advanced right now; I guess my advice would be to use Inline::Perl5 (or Inline::Perl6 from p5) to gradually migrate business logic to p6, but keep using whatever p5 webframework the app i susing now 21:32
*using
zostay what does this mean? "Cannot invoke this object (REPR: Null; VMNull)" 21:33
moritz zostay: it means that you're trying to invoke something, but that somthing is a NULL on a very low level 21:34
geekosaur something internal leaked out into perl6 level 21:35
lolo78 Moritz: Thanks Moritz. Right now, I think the P5 application is using CGI, so it might be a good idea to upgrade to more modern technologies. If there is no framework, maybe there are still a few modules that can be used. It's not a full web application, but an application using a Web browser and HTTP for its graphical interface. Maybe a couple of good modules might be sufficient. I was... 21:37
...thinking about things like github.com/gfldex/http-server-simple or similar things.
zostay that's kind of what i figured, any suggestion on how i can track it down? 21:38
RabidGravy lolo78, I've been using HTTP::Server::Tiny + Crust for a few things, works well for me 21:39
moritz zostay: do you have a backtrace? if not, try with --ll-exception
zostay nope and nope then either 21:40
RabidGravy zostay, the pre-eminent cause of that is something like a .wrap or other low level operation on a callable that would cause it to get saved as an attribute during compilation
and the resulting closure "disappearing" during the pre-compilation
lizmat m: use nqp; (nqp::null)() # zostay 21:41

RabidGravy there are tickets for it in RT

zostay RabidGravy++ i am doing something like that and commenting out bits of that code at least change what's happening in a way that might help me find, thx 21:43
qub regarding non-working multiple eof-s in $*IN: where should i send the bug report: rakudo/nqp/moarvm/libuv? 21:44
moritz qub: rakudo
zostay Perl 6 is such a joy to play with when it's a joy. When it isn't, it's like being nibbled to death by cats.
moritz that's where bug reports go unless you're quite sure what layer it's in 21:45
qub: that said, what exactly is the desired behavior?
RabidGravy regarding that, I think it was BMC Remedy that stored custom comment fields in a large BLOB in the database separated by FF characters 21:48
21:49 bjz joined
RabidGravy there's no end of crack addled behaviour in software that originated in the pre-modern era 21:49
I've just done a test on Linux and it will happily "$*IN.slurp-rest' something with an embedded 004 in it 21:53
geekosaur yes, because that is not actually EOF
21:53 maybekoo2 left
geekosaur this is a tty driver-specific behavior, the stty-d eof char causes a short read 21:53
the tty eof char is not passed on 21:54
RabidGravy right, but then I'm not sure what we are talking about
geekosaur stdio, and probably libuv, make eof "sticky" on terminal filehandles, because the common idiom of looking only for an 0-length read will fail if you type xxx^Dyyy
21:55 bjz left
geekosaur (that is, programs will handle the initial short read as a normal read that returned less than usual, and expect the next read to return 0. with ttys the next read returns more data, so libs like stdio and probably libuv remember they saw the short read and return EOF from then on unless "reset" 21:55
RabidGravy right, so how is it in the data that qub is talking about then? 21:56
21:56 bjz joined
geekosaur qub's complaint is they are sending data via terminal, control-d, then the next set of data, control-d, ... 21:56
the short-read workaround prevents this because after the first short read, the handle is considered to always be at EOF 21:57
RabidGravy well, it's just stick the terminal in "raw" mode with stty then
geekosaur but then you can't detect end at all unless you watch for some magic sequence at the beginning. also you will need some way to pass through a control-D that is *not* an eof
basically, replacing one can of worms with a smellier one
lizmat perhaps an IO::Handle.split( FF ) could work ? 21:59
RabidGravy I'm feeling the hate growing, despite having maintained a large proportion of the P5 Term::* modules into the 21st centurt
