guifa SmokeMachine I saw it. Still trying to work out some of the details. I'm trying to get it to be as tightly integrated as Regex is, and if I can nail the syntax right for calling a logical rule/fact and a logical variable (while still allowing for other random variables) it'll be great 00:22
SmokeMachine guifa: on my suggestion I tried to make it closer to grammars... 00:24
guifa okay I get why this happens but it feels LTA 00:36

Voldenet interesting
guifa The thing is that Z and X are behaving differently with respect to it 02:17
Voldenet it's obvious why: X doesn't need to treat * differently, Z does 02:19

Voldenet I'm betting it has to do something with how zip iterator is implemented 02:22
it doesn't expect to have * in the middle of the list at all
guifa So the *-as-last-element is only documented for the metaoperator 02:25
But not the operator
The Zip operator interleaves the lists passed to Z like a zipper, taking index-corresponding elements from each operand. The returned Seq contains nested lists, each with a value from every operand in the chain. If one of the operands runs out of elements prematurely, the zip operator will stop.
behavior is distinct: 02:26
The Z operator also exists as a metaoperator, in which case the inner lists are replaced by the value from applying the operator to the list:
Voldenet m: say ["a", [*], |("c".."g")] Z 1..20 02:31
camelia ((a 1) (1 2) (c 3) (d 4) (e 5) (f 6) (g 7))
Voldenet …what?
m: say ["a", ["b"], |("c".."g")] Z 1..20 02:32
camelia ((a 1) ([b] 2) (c 3) (d 4) (e 5) (f 6) (g 7))
Voldenet Something's definitely not right
However 02:33
m: say ["a", [*, *], |("c".."g")] Z 1..20
camelia ((a 1) ([* *] 2) (c 3) (d 4) (e 5) (f 6) (g 7))

lizmat Xliff: in my case, no rakubrew is involved. In you case it seems it is? 10:11
xinming when I used rakubrew, How can we make the raku scripts in crontab please? 10:13
I mean for best practises. 10:14
How do you handle raku scripts using rakubrew
lizmat how would that be different from another Raku installation ?
ab5tract my guess is because rakubrew installs into a user directory. I don't think it has a mechanism to install system-wide 10:25
10:29 teatime left 10:30 teatime joined, Manifest0 joined
xinming lizmat: I think it's because the raku PATH is not initliazed in crontab 10:36
We have eval $(/home/xm/.rakubrew/bin/rakubrew init Bash) in .bashrc
What I'm curious is, do we have a transparent way to init the PATH in crontab 10:37
Xliff lizmat: It's either an issue in the repository or with how rakubrew set them up.
The following command fails when I build from the versions/moar-blead directory: /usr/bin/perl Configure.pl --backends=moar --gen-moar=main --gen-nqp=main --make-install --gen-moar --force-rebuild --moar-option="--debug" --git-cache-dir="/home/cbwood/.rakubrew/git_reference" 10:38
lizmat I know MasterDuke changed something wrt to bulding, perhaps a "reboot" of rakubrew is needed? 10:39
Xliff I can nuke the moar-blead directory and restart the build and still it errors out.
My reboot being "rm -rf .rakubrew" and reinstalling from scratch. Same problem. 10:40
lizmat Xliff: weird :-(
still feels related to MasterDuke's work, so maybe they have an idea of what's going on 10:41
Xliff OK. I'm on 2024.02 until then. 10:43
I'm usually on weekly builds, so this is a first in a while.

ab5tract xinming: does this help? stackoverflow.com/questions/847569...run-script 11:02
tl;dr -- `crontab -e` should create/edit a user-specific crontab. I'm not sure how deep the environment setup is, but you should be able setup the environment if you schedule a shell script that does the setup and then calls the raku script 11:05

antononcube I have to revisit the package / module naming question from yesterday. 12:51
I created, submitted, and deleted the package “Data::Slurps” — I think that name sounds “wrong”. 12:52
I consider resubmitting it with the name “Data::Slurpers” or “Data::Importers”.
12:53 haxxelotto joined
Although, the function slurp is being overloaded in that package, I find “Data::Importers” more “findable” or “intuitive”. 12:55
Xliff cd 13:08
13:11 itaipu joined
xinming ab5tract: definitely not. 13:12
I just now find that the bash init output contains the path. 13:13
I just manullay hard code the PATH in crontab
ab5tract ah, I'm surprised that the system crontab would be allowed to access the contents of a user's home folder 13:14
but I'm glad you've got it working

antononcube @ab5tract Thanks. I searched docs.raku.org and here: raku-musings.com/keywords.html 19:29
ab5tract I’m not sure why ‘import’ failed 19:38
in that way
import is useful when you require a module instead of use it 19:39
m: module M { sub m is export { say “m” }}; import M; m() 19:40
camelia m
guifa lizmat: ah. I'm doing something where I need to clone, and was debating whether to do clone before calling or in my method, and was thinking it would nice if I could do it upon calling
oooh.....that could be a cool trait. is clone
antononcube @ab5tract Thanks -- this was not clear to me from perusing of docs.raku.org. 19:41
But, since I had some doubts about using import as function I held up the Zef ecosystem submission of "Data::Importers" : github.com/antononcube/Raku-Data-Importers 19:42
ab5tract antononcube: I wonder if this can provide some inspiration.. 5ab5traction5.bearblog.dev/i-raku-...structors/ 19:46
That’s the most elaborate export-ery that I’ve personally done 19:48
antononcube @ab5tract Yes, it inspirational to those MS DOS and Windows.

antononcube Agh, ok -- thanks for clarifying !!! 19:49
Voldenet SmokeMachine: Schema introspection in sql may be not always possible (e.g. where you don't even have sql installed on dev system), it might be worth using model from previous migration as a source 19:55
with specific sql scripts target 19:56
SmokeMachine Voldenet: in that case you wouldn’t use update, but prepare —to-model (I just thought of that) 19:58
—from-model, sorry
Voldenet makes sense 19:59
SmokeMachine Sorry, I was right… —to-model… it will compare the old model (as originally) with the new model 20:01
Voldenet they both make some sense if you want to generate migration scrips for other sql flavors retrospectively… 20:04
but it's a rare use case
> -from-model=3 -to-model=5 –driver=SQLite 20:06
SmokeMachine :+1
👍
but I think it is a good default (if nothing else was asqued) to get the diff from last/current model's version to current local DB 20:10
and to update your local DB, you edit your model and run `update`, make sense?
20:22 vlad__ left 20:29 merp left
Voldenet I usually make changes in the code first 21:07
so, models -> logic -> migration
migration can be arbitrarily complex
but I don't worry about it when designing the code 21:08
sometimes I even start with logic, so I use the db how I'd like 21:09
then refactor model/schema to what I need
and craft the migration
Geth docker: m-dango++ created pull request #58:
Bump to 2024.02		 21:14
SmokeMachine Voldenet: so change models > run `update` (it will update you local DB) > write your logic > run `prepare` to write your migrations (SQL)... 21:18
Voldenet: or, if you do not have a local DB: change models > do NOT run `update` > write your logic > run `prepare --from-model-version 42` to write your migrations (SQL)... 21:20
21:20 jpn joined
Voldenet updating local db requires migrating it 21:20
it's tougher than it sounds
so yeah 21:21
`prepare from-model-version` sounds about right
hm, I wonder whether inspecting the schema makes sense at this point 21:26
antononcube Alsways inspect the schema!
greenfork I wonder how does this de-sugar? 21:27

camelia 3
Voldenet m: say (1,1,1).Int 21:31

Voldenet that's why it becomes "3" 21:32
I'm not sure what'd be the syntax for [+], `postcircumfix:<[ ]>(infix:<+>)` perhaps
but I'm guessing 21:33
greenfork What about this one
m: say (1,1,1).&infix:</>
camelia 3

greenfork Shouldn't it be equivalent here?
Voldenet nope 21:36

Voldenet note the additional ()
you pass the list as first argument
greenfork Oh I see, thank you! 21:37
