SmokeMachine i just remembered this exists: github.com/croservices/cro-http/pull/208 20:52
but originally, before I knew that PR existed, my plan was to do something this: github.com/croservices/cro-http/pull/207 20:54
this test file shows what I had in mind: github.com/croservices/cro-http/pu...f2c1a9c902 20:56

librasteve .oO - i will try and take a look today 11:20
arunvickram I will likely not be able to do look at this today, I'll probably be grinding LeetCode 16:17
SmokeMachine: i do wonder though how this will alleviate the EVAL calls, it looks like you're defining named routes similarly to how unnamed routes are defined: github.com/croservices/cro-http/pu...f2c1a9c902 16:19

coleman does Cro support SSE? github.com/librasteve/Air/issues/4...3909579354 17:02
patrickb I've. just quickly read up on them. 17:10
IIUC, it's a *client side* API on top of a plain XHR that is kept open. 17:11
So on the server side, it's just a normal request that the server is supposed to simply not close, but keeps pushing data into.
If that is true, then (without trying) I think Cro already allows to do that. 17:16
Simply set the response body to a supply and then emit blobs into it.
See cro.raku.org/docs/reference/cro-http-message at the very bottom. 17:18
I didn't look into how the data needs to look that is sent via this non closing response, but that's probably a trivial issue. 17:20
nemokosch I wonder how this website is hosted 17:27
arunvickram coleman: it does support sending text/event-stream responses back to the client, my DataStar library basically generates a text/event-stream response 17:49
i haven't tested SSE with channels/supplies yet but to my understanding it does work 17:50
coleman thanks folks 18:00
patrickb just found raku-advent.blog/2022/12/08/day-8-...now-later/ 18:08

librasteve_ patrickb: bduggan has said I'd love to see a new version released that includes this bug fix -- anything I can do to help? 21:06
github.com/croservices/cro-http/pu...4254224770
I am happy to release a new release of Cro::HTTP … but this would be my first time to fez upload Cro so I want to check with you if there are any special instructions 21:07
patrickb There are...
librasteve_ also, I would like to do the fez action as the author `zef:cro` is that possible?
patrickb github.com/croservices/release 21:08
you'll need this repo
librasteve_ .oO … tx - its gettign late here so I will review that release doc and let you know if I have any q’s
I am already a member of the GH cro org - iirc fez will just do the right thing if I use my regular librasteve login 21:10
patrickb I believe so
librasteve_ should I just bump Cro::HTTP to 0.8.12 - or try to release the whole cro family to keep the version numbers in sync? 21:11
patrickb Only bump Cro:;HTTP 21:12
librasteve_ ok - cool - tx!
i aim to do that tomorrow 21:13
patrickb I'll be mostly available throughout the day. Just give me a shout whenever you need help.
