lucs I'm wondering why for example neither IO::String nor Text::CSV appear there (but they are both on github). 03:40
Oh, wait. 03:41
Hmm... A search on the site finds both (but Text::CSV doesn't show up when clicking the "TEXT" tag, and IO::String, the "IO" tag). 03:44
Now, for my real question.
How can I get those two modules to work together, given that Text::CSV implements its own version of IO::String? 03:45

AlexDaniel so speaking out your mind regarding this issue is actually helpful in this case, IMO, even if it looks like there's a lot of tension in the discussion 14:53

Zoffix ufobat_: not really, .? is more about checking whether method exists, not whether the given args can be accepted. The shortest I can think is `my $b = "meow".encode; $b.can("decode").grep(*.cando: \($b)).head andthen .($b).say` 14:59

1 Mar 2018 21:58Z <DrForr> Zoffix: (for perl6-ANTLR, that is)
1 Mar 2018 22:09Z <DrForr> Zoffix: passed on Travis, thanks again.
Zoffix I can see how that could be useful in core. Would be great to try it out as a slang module first.
raschipi I agree that the discussion should go on, just on the appropriate forums, not in an urelated bug report. 15:00
Zoffix m: my $b = "meow".encode; $b.can("decode").grep(*.cando: \($b)).head andthen .($b).say

vcv For a return constraint in a signature, can you specify the return value must be a list of 2 items where the first item is a Str and second is an Int? 16:32
jnthn Don't think you can put a where clause directly there, but there's always something like: 16:34
m: my subset ListStrInt of List where (Str, Int); sub foo(--> ListStrInt) { return ("foo", 42) }; say foo 16:35
camelia (foo 42)
jnthn m: my subset ListStrInt of List where (Str, Int); sub foo(--> ListStrInt) { return ("foo", 4.2) }; say foo
camelia Type check failed for return value; expected ListStrInt but got List ($("foo", 4.2))
in sub foo at <tmp> line 1
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1

ctilmes moritz: re: stackoverflow.com/questions/490363...dont-call, I don't think I'm expressing my need properly 16:51
moritz: I call one third party library (I don't control), that then calls a second third party library (I don't control). In C, I just "-l<lib1> -l<lib2>" and it works fine 16:52
moritz: but in perl, I can only specify "is native('lib1')"
moritz: I need a way to say "look for symbols in lib2 also" 16:53
moritz ctilmes: so isn't it a bug in lib1 that -l<lib1> itself doesn't work?
or is this usual in C land?
ctilmes In C land, it is normal to list all the libraries that are needed to the linker 16:54
16:54 pharv joined
moritz I know that, but that doesn't answer my question :-) 16:54
16:54 robertle_ left
ctilmes Is it a bug in lib1 that you must link in lib2 when you build your executable? I don't think so. 16:55
moritz depending on how common that case is, I see two possible solutions
ctilmes Some libraries have 'plugin' type dynamic library loading, and will pull in the right one, but many don't. I don't think that is a bug. 16:56
16:56 pharv left, pharv joined
moritz one is to build a very thing thing in C that you link with both libraries, so that you don't expose that complication to NativeCall 16:56
and the other is to teach NativeCall to load more than one lib for a symbol 16:57
ctilmes yes! #2 is what I think we need.
I don't really understand MoarVM or NativeCall internals, but I suspect the is native() trait says something like "load library x, then call symbol y". I just need a way to say "load library x", but don't call anything yet. 17:00

jnthn ctilmes: I guess a hack might (or might not) be to just write a native call sub that doesn't exist into the other library, call it with `try`. The innevitable exception will be swallowed, but the library might be sufficiently loaded as a side-effect. Maybe. :)

thowe As a pedagogical example for showing some basic concept about ints and floats, they generate a SVG surface plot. So I get caught up in the details of relearning highschool geometry and SVG XML markup. 17:24
They try to say the details aren't that important, but then the exercises kind of require you to get in to those details to do anything. I don't know if I'm stupid or the authors just love the smell of their own farts too much. 17:26

thowe I'm an occasional programmer/hobbiest... I need to at least do a couple of them. I just play with this stuff for fun.
El_Che thowe: I always invent a small project
thowe It has been proven nobody will pay me to just write code.
El_Che for learning go I wrote a small check script that read the netscaler load blaancer api and waned when a percentage of backends were down 17:32
thowe I usually have one in mind before buying the book. There's always small scripting needs at work.
El_Che and a deployment tool (git, encryption, docker deployment) used until our Linux admins deployed an orchestration tool (they did, so obsoleting the tool) 17:33
thowe I was going to write a script that generated some config data for snmp requests. I ended up just writing it in Perl. 17:34
El_Che for perl6 I wrote a small program for our CA migration (we have about 3000 domains). It connected to the host, verified if the cert was renewed with the new CA, if not send warnings to the owners in -30, -15, -7, -1 and +1 days
it's still in production until somewhere in april this year
thowe IThe Influxdb version in Go isn't very flexible
El_Che then all the cert should be EOL'ed :) 17:35
yeah, been there. For a project with advanced LDAP funcionalaties I tried in order Perl 6, Go and Perl 5 17:36
jnthn ctilmes: Pretty sure not
thowe I want to rewrite our invoice calculator and LD rating engine for work in Perl6
El_Che on perl5 had a mature lib
jnthn ctilmes: Think it passes down the library and symbol together
ctilmes: Feel free to file a feature request for a better way to do this than your current hack 17:37
ctilmes jnthn: Maybe make it possible to pass in a Nil symbol?
jnthn There is no Nil at that level :)
But I guess can null string it or something 17:38

🍕🍕🍕 First contribution by AlexDaniel++! ♥
thowe It is pretty low tech today... Practically just some really basic Ruby wrapping SQL. A decent DateTime lib and persistent DB connections will revolutionize it. Also, Perl6's Integer math will make it more readable since I won't need to use a bigfloat lib.
ctilmes or some sort of undefined or empty string or whatever
El_Che thowe: in general it's more fun to write code in Perl6, Perl 5 has the libs (on the devops ecosystem Go has more libs) and Go is way easier to deploy
jnthn Could be one way to do it, though whatever we do, we'll want some decent Perl 6 level interface

raschipi Go is easier to deploy but much harder to give security support. 17:41
El_Che raschipi: it's ok if part of a CI system
(aka go programs are part of my docker image) 17:42
(same goes for perl programs)
raschipi It's not in my experience, keeping track of where everything is on programming. 17:43
El_Che raschipi: what go is lacking, and this affect security, is decent lib versioning
raschipi Oh, but introducing it means it will not be as easy to deploy... 17:44
El_Che not really
it's a compile time thing, not runtime
raschipi They will introduce it because they want to support reproducible builds.
El_Che the work is for the programmer
raschipi: exactly
raschipi: and because the system is very poor atm

raschipi To give it proper security support it's necessary to rebuild everything with security patches, so not a job for the ISV.
Not easy, besides deployment environment, supporting go requires a build environment. 17:46

raschipi I would agree go usual procedures would be acceptable (without gcc-go) if it was a pure go shop. But I have to support C, C++, Perl, Pascal, Javascript (both node and in the clients), etc. Go requires a very different procedure, requiring full rebuilds when depedencies release patches instead of just deploying patched binaries like the others. 17:52
So I try to use go with gcc-go and shared libraries, which makes it similar to the others, but not always possible. 17:53
And proper support for versions won't mean much if the community doesn't pick up supporting stable versions, which they won't. They will keep requiring and supporting only HEAD, breaking ABI every other version, requiring rewriting applications constantly. 17:56

kjk yeah, kind of tired of writing 'my' all the time.... would be great if it's the default :) 18:26
It should be possible in theory, right? Like the compiler should be able to see that a variable used is not declared, and then assume it to be 'my'. 18:28
TimToady sure, other languages do that, with rather mixed results, which is why we don't

TimToady or worse, not-so-subtle warpage of the design of lexical scoping to be function-only
then all your "lexical" variable escape your inner scopes... 18:34
kjk would be enlighting to see all the design decisions, mainly the whys, that go into perl6.
