pilne am i wrong in my feeling that perl6 is probably the easiest way to code if you want/must glue together other languages due to grammars? 00:22
like... if i don't care right now about performance, but for some reason i want to/need to mix say... c, ruby, python, and perl5 code.... 00:23
perl6 would probably be the most natural way to do that (as compared to anything else, except maybe doing it "bottom up" with c?)
like if perl5 is glue, perl6 is superglue :D
raschipi I don't see the relation to Grammars, though... 00:24
pilne aren't grammars what allow the interop to be kept perl6 based? 00:25
in terms of syntax? or is my brain finally just melting down a little?
raschipi No, it's the foreign function interface 00:26
i.e. NativeCall 00:27
Rakudo uses NativeCall to call into other languages.
00:27 Cabanossi left
raschipi But Perl6 was built from the start to be able to do these things, so it's not just NativeCall. 00:28
pilne fair enough

Herby_ question 02:31
disclaimer: I'm new to Linux
in the terminal, if I type "zef", i get the options for zef
if I type "sudo zef", it says command not found
what gives 02:32
raschipi do you have sudo installed? 02:36
Herby_ yep
geekosaur root often has a restricted $PATH
Herby_ Should I need sudo to: zef install HTTP::UserAgent ? 02:37
raschipi Yep, sudo will clean up the environment before running commands.
geekosaur sudo is usually configured to clean its environment and install a sanitized $PATH by default; see /etc/sudoers and the doucmenttion thereto
02:37 ryn1x joined
raschipi And it's better to leave it that way. Instead use the complete path to the zef executable. 02:38
Herby_ hmmm
geekosaur and you should only need to sudo if you have rakudo installed in a system directory. be cautious in that case if it got there by a package manager 02:39
Herby_ i'm clueless linux rookie... i used checkinstall to install rakudo
raschipi can you give us the result of `which perl6`? 02:40
Herby_ '/home/chrx/rakudo/rakudo-star-2017.07/install/bin//perl6 02:41
raschipi hum, doesn't seem like you'd need to use sudo to install modules 02:42
Herby_ when I try: zef install HTTP::UserAgent
02:42 darkmorph left
Herby_ I get a wordy error, but the gist is "permission denied" 02:42
Failed to open file /home/chrx/.zef/store/MANIFEST.zef: Permission denied 02:43
geekosaur sounds like you used sudo a previous time and now you have root-owned files under $HOME 02:44
Herby_ definitely possible...
raschipi yeah, I would do `chown -R chrx:chrx /home/chrx/.zef`? 02:45
geekosaur (this might even break zef, I think it assumes something installed under $HOME is guaranteed writable and it can re-precomp or etc.)
or maybe CURLI makes the assumption
the chown needs to be done via sudo though
02:45 perlpilot joined
raschipi right, you'll need sudo 02:46
Herby_ so I should: sudo chown -R chrx:chrx /home/chrx/.zef
geekosaur yes
raschipi have a look at this: explainshell.com/explain?cmd=sudo+...hrx%2F.zef 02:47
Herby_ progress. got further in the install then got this: CompUnit::Repository install target is not writeable/installable: /home/chrx/auto 02:50
Need a valid installation target to continue
geekosaur same issue, sounds like. but why is zef creating a dir there?
raschipi you have the same problem on that path probably
Anyway, it should be safe to execute the same command in that path: `sudo chown -R chrx:chrx /home/chrx/auto` 02:54
Herby_ chown: cannot access '/home/chrx/auto': No such file or directory 02:55
raschipi try `mkdir ~/auto`
geekosaur now I think something else is wrong 02:56
like, I didn't think it should be writing there to begin with. wrong path in zef's CUR somehow?
or maybe it's a bug in the package 02:57
I would be rather annoyed if installing a random package started putting stuff in random dirs outside the CUR playground
much as I would be if apt-get dropped something in $HOME (a debian no-no)
Herby_ i think my install is all jacked 03:02
I was able to install http::useragent
but when I run a simple script 03:03
Could not find HTTP::UserAgent at line 2 in:

HoboWithAShotgun Color::Named - Because colors are people too. Do you think that could be somehow politically incorrect? i'm super bad at judging such things 03:15
raschipi One thing that comes to my mind is that there are people that don't have names. 03:16
HoboWithAShotgun i mean it as a reference to "aliens are people too" 03:17

wander Can we add a precedence info of proto-regexes? 07:41
moritz wander: are you talking about grammars in general? or the Perl 6 grammar in Rakudo?
07:42 wander_ joined
wander_ rule expression:sym<+> (precedence => 1) { <expression>+ % <sym>}; rule expression:sym<*> (precedence => 0) { <expression>+ % <sym>}; 07:42
something like these
moritz no 07:43
wander_ in Rakudo
moritz there' no operator precedence parser built into the proto mechanism
07:44 sproctor joined
wander_ since I have several operators to handle, I try to find some method to deal with them in similar form 07:45
moritz a good OPP supports quite some features (precedence, different operator types (infix, prefix, postfix, circumfix), different associativies, including non-associative operators)
and we haven't found a good way yet to structure the API for one
07:45 wander left

12:09 Aaronepower joined
jnthn Nice timing, I implemneted it last weekend :) 12:10
sproctor Cool. I've been thinking about it for a while. The idea being you should be able to decorate the OpenAPi with OperationId's that match controller methods and the just do an include $plugin->parse_file( "path/to/file" ) 12:11
It'll generate all the routes and also validation sub types based on the spec. So you just need to create the controllers... That's my thinking anyway. 12:12
Similar to the Mojo plugin.
I prefer that way of working to the auto generation thing in most cases. As it means you can update your spec file later and not have to regenerate all your system. Anyway I'll keep an eye on things and play about with this over the weekend. 12:13

haxmeister not much of a power user on windows 16:51
anything specific I might look at?
timotimo the thing that's exploding here is the sha256 implementation that uses the powershell so it doesn't have to pull in any dlls or slow perl6 code 16:52
16:52 ryn1x left
timotimo all of this is just for downloading and verifying the dlls we have on the gtk-dlls.p6c.org site 16:52
you can manually git clone the gtk simple source repository, put the DLLs into the resources/ folder (and check the sha256 signatures manually) and then just throw out the Build.pm file 16:53
then "zef install ." inside the code directory

ilmari what happened to the traditional --foo/--no-foo? 17:06
ugexe personally i don't like that convention, which means writing both params in your &MAIN
sub MAIN(Bool:D :$foo, Bool:D, :$no-foo) { } 17:07
ilmari why couldn't --no-foo set Bool:D :$foo to False?
ugexe because then MAIN is parsing its params fairly different than other subs 17:08
what happens if i have an actual :$no-foo for instance

patrickz Hey! I'm currently trying to get buttons on the raspberry pi working using interrupts. 17:54
Using NativeCall + the wiringPi library doesn't work, because wiringPi spawns a thead and thus causes a MVM panic when the interrupt hits. 17:55
Has somebody already done interrupt stuff with perl6 and can point into a direction? 17:56
timotimo oh, interrupts? like, posix signals?
patrickz think so
17:57 HoboWithAShotgun joined
patrickz if I looked it up correctly wiringPi uses ioctl + poll on a filehandle internally 17:57
but there is no IO::Handle.poll in p6...
timotimo an strace would perhaps be enlightening
17:58 ryn1x left
mst is it not possible to create a callback that can be passed via NCI and transfers back to the MVM thread first? 17:59
18:00 vivus-ignis joined
timotimo we do have something for cross-thread callbacks; at least there's a test that has some of those words in its filename 18:00
what does this mvm panic look like, patrickz? 18:01
haxmeister timotimo: thanks for the help.. zef completed with no errors.. will try some code here shortly

timotimo yes, that makes sense. you might have to use some other ipc mechanism 18:17

patrickz I thought about replicating the ioctl + poll thing in p6 land. 18:19
18:19 darutoko left
patrickz No idea if those functions are already available in p6. A quick grep on the source only yielded stuff in libuv :-/ 18:21
18:23 cdg left
patrickz stuff in libuv/src/unix/poll.c is not called in moarvm. I guess p6 has no native poll support. 18:23
mst patrickz: poll() is just one way to determine if a filehandle is readable 18:24
patrickz: libuv has multiple backend implementations to do that, of which poll is one.
raschipi Probably because they develop to the lcd of linux and windows 18:25
mst patrickz: it would make no sense for moarvm to call that directly
timotimo shouldn't it be enough to have a thread that read()s in a loop?
steeznson Sorry to go a little off topic: Could someone briefly elaborate a little on grammars here? Am I correct in thinking they just function as classes of regexes?
mst raschipi: poll() is often not the best backend on linux anyway
raschipi you prefer real time signals? 18:27
18:27 cognominal joined
timotimo grammars are actually just a kind of class, and regexes/tokens/rules in them are just a kind of method 18:27
steeznson @timotimo thanks that clears things up a little 18:28
timotimo being able to derive from and mix into grammars is super useful 18:29
patrickz timotimo: just looked at the strace of my little test script failing with wiringPi. It looks like the C poll() just does read() in a loop :-P 18:30
timotimo well, that's at least easy to replicate in pure perl6 code 18:31

ugexe probably because you are using stuff in your depends you should not be using 18:55
tyil I took it from the META6 spec, but thats out of date then 18:56
is there an up to date page with the full META6 spec 18:57
18:57 virtualsue joined
tyil the docs refer to design.perl6.org/S22.html#META6.json 18:58
which has the depends that I based that META6.json on
so I guess according to the docs, zef doesnt support stuff it should be supporting 18:59
ugexe those arent "the docs" 19:00
tyil ttps://docs.perl6.org/language/modules#index-entry-META6.json-META6.json refers to it
if docs.perl6.org isnt "the docs", what is?
ugexe what does that url, which is different than the previous url, point at that zef does not support? 19:02
tyil "See the full META specification for more details as well as further options available for use in META6.json files."
that "full META specification" is the S22.html
so the docs quite clearly state that S22.html contain the full spec, and the docs.perl6.org page is just a sample 19:03
ugexe well S22.html at the top clearly states its not the spec
tyil "clearly" in a bit overblown
ugexe its a bright red header 19:04
tyil since it says on S22.html it "may" be out of date
and the docs.perl6.org points to the "full META spec", to S22.html
ugexe "for specs, see the official test suite"
tyil which is not actually linked it 19:05
to
ugexe ok, anyways, you know why it doesnt work now.
tyil regardless, zef and the docs are out of sync, and the error message could certainly get some improvement
ugexe go for it
19:06 mempko left
tyil well, I can guess why it doesnt work now, but I still dont have a clear link to the actual spec that zef supposedly supports 19:06
ugexe its supposedly in the code and CUR/rakudo
19:07 ryn1x left, |oLa|1 left
tyil if you have a real pointer I'd gladly check it out later today, but I'm getting a strong vibe that you're annoyed that I want better docs and zef to adhere to it 19:07
wander seems Perl 6 grammar use LL() grammar, how to build rules with left-associativity 19:08
tyil so I'll just leave it at "zef and the docs arent in sync", and let it rest for a bit
moritz or do something about it 19:09
19:09 troys is now known as troys_
tyil moritz: hence I asked for a clear link to the actual spec ;) 19:09
then I can update the docs with the correct link, write it out if I have more time
"its supposedly here and there" doesn't really help me 19:10
or saying "the docs are wrong", that doesn't really help anyone either
if he doesn't want to help me find out where the correct info is, I can't help to correct the docs
ugexe part of your responses are in part to how you framed your questions 19:11
19:11 |oLa| joined, |oLa| left, |oLa| joined
tyil and because you seem pretty bent on not providing me with the simple answer to my simple question I wanted to let off some steam on both sides 19:12
because all I get from this is that you're annoyed that I found a possible issue with zef
and I'm getting annoyed at you evading trying to actually help me
19:12 vivus-ignis left
tyil and this is helping nobody so far 19:12
raschipi if the answer was easy, it would have been provided to you already 19:13
tyil my question right now is, where can I find the META6.json spec directly 19:14
raschipi docs.perl6.org/language/modules#in...META6.json
moritz tyil: there's stuff on docs.perl6.org and in the synopsis 19:15
tyil which refers to the "full spec" which is either incorrect or not cerroctly implemented
moritz they are out of sync, and out of sync with the implementation
hence, the need for improvement which you mentioned
tyil yes, but I cant improve it if nobody wants to link me the full spec
ugexe again with the framing... maybe not-yet-implemented would have been a better choice
raschipi There's a note in the spec that says it's known to be incomplete.
samcv so i think the answer is just to not make sub items inside of depends
and then zef should be able to handle it?
raschipi I linked it above for you, that's it, all there is. 19:16
moritz tyil: sure you can, if you want to dig in and find out what's actually going on
ugexe yes
moritz this is not waterfall, where a Complete Spec[tm] is written, and everything is derived from it
perlpilot tyil: what samcv said.
tyil perlpilot: I know thats the solution, we're past that point for quite a while now
perlpilot tyil: ah, then update the docs to reflect reality :-) 19:17
tyil "zef does not support the full META6 spec", I can just add that yes 19:18
raschipi tyil: the docs were written as forward-compatible with the new and improved specification you're planning to write.
this way you'll won't have to rewrite the docs after writing the specification.
19:19 domidumont left
ugexe we dont know if it supports the full meta spec or not. what is in the SPECULATION documents is not neccesarily the spec 19:19
tyil it clearly says "specification" in the link on docs.perl6, not speculation 19:20
idk why you're making such a big deal out of a simple question
ugexe uh ok 19:21
tyil I'm willing to update the docs on this to avoid confusion, and if there currently is no actual spec to adhere to outside of the sample on docs.perl6.org, thats fine too
raschipi the word 'specification' on those documentsz is there because history. 19:22
perl6 actual specifications are written in the form of tests 19:23
perlpilot tyil: that section where it says "META specification" also talks about the "META.info file" too, so it's nicely out of date.
tyil perlpilot: yes, and it refers back to perl6.org which is also out of date, which just causes confusion
which is why I want to update it
but on this particular issue I can't seem to get a clear and straightforward answer 19:24
masak greetings #perl6 19:25
raschipi heya masak
tyil: there's no specification.
masak I just learned from a Guy Steele talk that the `?` in regexes was probably invented by Alfred Aho back in 1975
moritz \o masak, long time no see 19:27
masak yeah. I haven't defected or anything, I'm just being "put to good use" at $work :)

Zoffix tyil: the clear and straightforward answer is there's no "official" and complete spec for META contents at the moment. So far we're "winging" it with what zef does and what the slightly outdated speculation you saw documents. Making a concrete spec is listed as "would be good" on 6.d agenda github.com/perl6/6.d-prep/blob/mas...6json-spec , but I haven't
seen anyone willing to champion that. There's a separate #perl6-toolchain channel for this stuff. I don't sit in it, but it's possible some of the spec was discussed (logs irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6-toolchain/2017-10-18 )
tyil: so for your PR to docs, perhaps it better to clarify it's a work in progress and keep the link rather than removing it 20:12
geekosaur META format still changes every couple weeks, in fact
I'm not sure we're anywhere near the point of having a spec as such
Zoffix FWIW, it might be best to spec (as roast spec) just the basics, leaving extended stuff as a separate spec
