kalkin-_ ohh nevermind 00:00
skids kalkin-_: maybe you are just looking for a dynamically scoped variable?
kalkin-_ skids: you mean $*FOO? 00:01
skids right. Does not have to be uppercase. uppercase is usually for builtin stuff.

AlexDaniel .tell Zoffix try your .wut snippet again. I thought that only I would throw in a code that produces non-zero exit code on a good commit, but since you've done it too I decided to cover it as well 00:44
yoleaux AlexDaniel: I'll pass your message to Zoffix.
Zoffix Any idea why this program works with `echo` but not with `perl`, even though if I start the perl script alone it produces output? gist.github.com/zoffixznet/0ec1c2f...a7804d4103 00:45
yoleaux 00:44Z <AlexDaniel> Zoffix: try your .wut snippet again. I thought that only I would throw in a code that produces non-zero exit code on a good commit, but since you've done it too I decided to cover it as well
AlexDaniel mmm…
yoleaux: great job!
Zoffix AlexDaniel, no idea what .wut snippet you're talking about
AlexDaniel bisect: class A { has $.wut = [] }; my $a = A.new; $a.wut = [1,2,3]; $a.wut.say
bisectable AlexDaniel: exit code on a “good” revision is 1 (which is bad), bisecting with inverted logic

Zoffix Pissed off that I'm constantly fighting with things that aren't primary code writing. Like this proc stuff
AlexDaniel bisect: for ‘q b c d’.words -> $a, $b { }
bisectable AlexDaniel: exit code on a “good” revision is 1 (which is bad), bisecting with inverted logic
AlexDaniel: (2016-03-01) github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/1b6c901
AlexDaniel but look how great it is now! 00:47
Zoffix The docs don't say how the .tap'ed stdout is chunked. Is it by new lines? Does it buffer and waits? *sigh*
00:49 Herby__ left
AlexDaniel Zoffix: it may be the buffering in 01-basic.pl itself 00:49
Zoffix It prints fine when I run it from command line. 00:50
I tried now with a small perl script that prints a few lines and sleeps and I'm getting nothing from the tap
AlexDaniel Zoffix: what if you run it piped to | cat ?
geekosaur remember that programs buffer output not to terminals, usually in 4k or 8k chunks
on linux you can use stdbuf to defeat this 00:51
AlexDaniel or just turn on autoflush
in 01-basic.pl
geekosaur oh, yeh, probably doesn't defeat perl's since it's doing its own buffering (p5 via the perlio stuff, rakudo via libuv) 00:52
whereas stdbuf uses a backchannel into glibc's buffering code
AlexDaniel somehow all buffering problems I experienced were associated with perl5… hmm… 00:53
sometimes it feels like it is overdoing it
Zoffix AlexDaniel++ thanks, adding $|++ fixed it 00:54
Perl5--
AlexDaniel a bunch of code is not commited… :P gonna get some sleep 00:58

RabidGravy I just have to say that among all the cool and fabulous things in Perl 6, the combination multi of dispatch and the richness of signature declaration is racing ahead as my favourite thing 07:53
s/multi of/of multi/
moritz that is indeed a very powerful combination 07:54
and it nudges you in the direction of writing small routines

RabidGravy yeah, for a long while now I have aspired to making routines with the minimum possible complexity and removing all the logic surrounding determining what the arguments are and branching accordingly to a langiage feature leaps forward into that 07:59

literal since "elems" is in "handles", why doesn't it work?
get_drunk that is a premature assumption
psch so i'd think that the handles call just gets Whatever-curried and not actually applied..? 15:02

not .elems
see array_slice.pm
psch m: class Foo { has $.val handles <cache AT-POS EXISTS-POS elems end iterator>; }; my $f = Foo.new(val => [5,6]); say "elems: {$f.elems}, second: $f[1], last: $f[*-1]" 15:08
camelia rakudo-moar bf099b: OUTPUT«elems: 2, second: 6, last: 6␤»
llfourn or is that only for slices?
psch well, anyway, 'handles *' (and 'handles **') does a lot currently actually
llfourn nvm that's just for slicing with *, but it might be the same problem 15:09
psch i'll blame my statements about that yesterday on being too tired to read the source properly then vOv
same for my statement just now, which was informed by my insufficient reading yesterday :S
llfourn m: class Foo { has $.val handles <cache AT-POS EXISTS-POS elems end iterator>; }; my $f = Foo.new(val => [5,6]); say $f[1], $f[*-1] # yup it's because it calls .cache.elems internally 15:11
camelia rakudo-moar bf099b: OUTPUT«66␤»
llfourn kinda annoying
psch it probably would be nice to have something convenient hanging around that makes delegating all Positional (or Associative, for that matter) methods to an Attribute 15:15
llfourn I agree.
psch not sure i have a sane way to do that though - someone did something with .^methods and grep a few days back, but i don't recall the specifics

llfourn I'm going to RT this because it would probably be easy to implement and would be a great feature.
b2gills perlpilot: Your last comment could easily be taken the wrong way by people new to #perl6. ( In fact it seems as if it was )
psch well, the easiest thing i could think of is just something like Rakudo::Internals::ListOfPositionalMethods 15:19
although it'd probably be in the wrong spot in Rakudo::Internals
llfourn there should simply be a role which is a coathanger for all positionaly methods 15:20
perlpilot looks to see what his last comment was ...
llfourn then you can do handles ThatRole;
psch llfourn: i don't think that's particularly sensible, because then you'd have to stuff Iterator in there too
llfourn: or you don't get cache
wait, Iterable i think actually? 15:21
perlpilot b2gills: oh, I was just giving get_drunk a hard time because he was asking questions about P6 in #perl before he came here.
llfourn I think the implementors will have to worry about that :)
what about $.a handles @;
get_drunk it was a joke b2gills
about chat in another channel
so it sorta seems bad but it is not in the context that it was meant in
llfourn but that probably won't be ok because handles is just a trait hmmm 15:22
psch llfourn: as an (on and off...) implementor, i don't think compromising internal interface sanity for a feature is a good idea :)
FSVO "internal" - Iterator and Iterable can be implemented outside of CORE...
oh, but maybe i'm thinking bad again
psch steps away from hard programming thoughts 15:23
perlpilot get_drunk: though ... you were strangely silent here after all that activity in #perl ...
psch it's definitely too warm for that o/
llfourn the role would be purely superficial just there a way of tagging methods that make postcircumfixes work as intended
get_drunk i am observing
llfourn I don't know how it could make things more complex interanally?
perlpilot get_drunk: you didn't even re-try your "wildly successful" question, which might have gotten some different answers here (though I doubt it :) 15:24
get_drunk this is my wildly cautious side
i feel like I should learn both though

18:26 rurban left

TimToady with or without overlap after substitution? 18:27
probably without, most people would expect
literal without
basically the equivalent of this in Ruby: string.gsub!(Regexp.union(myhash.keys), myhash)

FROGGS masak: it is not just a A-uses-B-uses-C problem
masak FROGGS: ok...
tbrowder Zoffix: I'm still working on it, but advice helpful; issues for me before any merge: (1) be able to sort input pod docs by file name, not internal title 19:17
(2) figure out a way to work around the "table row with leading hyphen issue (#128221) 19:18

FROGGS huh 19:19
when C was changed, it tries to precompile A and fails, then B and fails, then C, continues, and then fails that D has an outdated dependency on C 19:20
so it is more about a diamond dependency relationship
tbrowder in the meantime, I may have found another bug: by my reading of the docs, this should be a valid scalar: "$issue-1234-fixed" but I'll try it:

dha Actually, the description of identifiers says that that should be valid, but I think the examples don't necessarily agree. the first example of a NON-valid identifier is "with-numbers1234-5" which seems to agree with the description.

design.perl6.org/S02.html#Names_and_Variables 19:29
An identifier is composed of an alphabetic character followed by any sequence of alphanumeric characters. The definitions of alphabetic and numeric include appropriate Unicode characters. Underscore is always considered alphabetic. An identifier may also contain isolated apostrophes or hyphens provided the next character is alphabetic.
dha Well, the design docs are pretty much considered historical at this point.

dha Ah, so the design document has that right, and the user docs have it wrong.
(apparently)
avalenn_ examples in the language documentation agree with design doc
AlexDaniel dha: what's right about it?
ah 19:31
didn't read the last few words…
dha the last bit about what follows the hyphen or quote needing to be alphabetic.
tbrowder But the S02 definition clarifies that each portion delimited with a leading hyphen or comma must start with a alphabetic character--that's what's missing in the docs 19:32
AlexDaniel but also note that there's no test for that
dha If we're agreed that that's the problem, I'm happy to add that.
oop. Then there should be a test for that. :-)
tbrowder dha: and change the docs
AlexDaniel dha: didn't you just say that you'd be happy to add a test?
perlpilot AlexDaniel: I think he was talking about the docs 19:33
AlexDaniel perlpilot: shhh
dha Nope. I'd be happy to add docs. :-) But I'm willing to take a whack at the test as well.
[Coke] assuming that's the desired behavior, aye. A pull request on the docs requesting someone verify that's the desired behavior (and/or on the spec test suite) appreciated.
dha If someone would just tell me where said test should be put, I'll see what I can do.
AlexDaniel [Coke]: well, keep in mind that the only thing that is out of sync is the docs 19:34
[Coke] so we don't run afoul of pmichaud's concerns about the defacto implementation becoming spec.
AlexDaniel [Coke]: both the speculations and the implementation does it “right”
[Coke] AlexDaniel: no, if there's no tests, then there's no spec.
AlexDaniel [Coke]: ok, indeed
[Coke] the speculations help drive it, but post-christmas, we shouldn't assume they are right.
AlexDaniel dha: S02-names/identifier.t
perlpilot [Coke]++ for keeping things in perspective. 19:35
[Coke] that said, I think they are, and pre-emptively vote +1 on this. :)
dha ok. Will take a shot at it.
AlexDaniel ah wait
“foob-4 is not a valid identifier (not alphabetic after hyphen)";”
how did I miss that
dha Where's that?
AlexDaniel github.com/perl6/roast/blob/ab7476...fier.t#L25
so yeah, *everything* is right except the docs 19:36
perlpilot so there *are* tests

lizmat subtract without whitespace, was my point :-)
tbrowder of course (slaps forehead hard)!
dha Yes. 19:40
perlpilot yeah, there are lots of examples I think that do that.
lizmat I think that's the only reason... if we would force whitespace for an infix:<->, then we could have $foo-42
tbrowder I've just been enjoying kebab case too much...

perlpilot just make sure you don't have variables named $A, $A-B and a constant named B that you want to subtract ;) 19:43
dha How's this for wording: You can also embed dashes C<-> or single quotes C<'> in the middle, but not two in a row, and only if followed by an alphabetic character.

perlpilot lizmat: what I was saying is that (under those contrived circumstances), you wanted to subtract, but the compiler thought otherwise. You've just made a new footgun for yourself. 19:53
dha: you can do that by making a branch for just the one commit.
lizmat true, hence perhaps we should emphasize longest token match at this place in the documentation ?
FROGGS masak: do you ex-/import tags in the packages the packages that fails with "Missing or wrong version of dependency"? 19:54

Garbage in, rainbows out

This commit includes a lot of changes to how problematic cases are handled. The basic idea is that first the code snippet is tested on good and bad revisions (git is not doing that by default), and further behavior is adapted according to that.
Also, 2015.12 is now used instead of v6.c.

AlexDaniel jnthn: seems like you was just a bit unlucky
dha Also, unless I've done something wrong, git cherry-pick seems to have actually worsened the issue at hand. 20:57
mst yes, for pulling a single commit
AlexDaniel jnthn: there are like 15 revisions where the build process fails, so there's no perl6 executable. Such commits are skipped
mst once it gets merged you'll want to rebase your stack o' commits branch onto master
and it should just re-order itself
dha Well, the branch and the master didn't actually differ in the first place, although cherry-picking probably has changed that. 21:00

mst dha: right, I said *once it gets merged* 21:01
i.e. after the PR is accepted into master
[Coke] dha: are you working in a fork? 21:02
dha ah. But in the meantime, the problem I was trying to solve by making a branch (i. e. only have one commit be used in the pull request) persists.
[Coke] - yes.
[Coke] if so, then rebase your master so it include's the upstream's master commits.
21:03 wamba left
[Coke] then branch off your clean master that doesn't have any of your other commits. 21:03

AlexDaniel what's the idea behind MONKEY-WRENCH and MONKEY-BARS ?
mst [Coke]: I think you've omitted about the first six steps from dha's point of view there
dha: so, if you keep a stack of commits in a wip branch atop master 21:04
[Coke] dha, mst: yes, well, not knowing how off-kilter his fork is, hard to tell. And feel free to jump in with any missing steps.
mst dha: you can PR one via 'git checkout master; git checkout -b some_name; git cherry-pick <the commit from wip>; git push origin some_name'
and then PR some_name
if currently your local master *is* your wip 21:05
then 'git checkout master; git checkout -b wip; git checkout master; git reset --hard origin/master'
dha define "wip"
work in progress?
mst (remember that I said about 'cp -a' first before being clever though)
yeah. I mean, if you're more comfortable generating a pile of commits in a single branch
then teasing them out one at a time to PR
you can use a wip branch like that
if they're completely independent commits, I'd give 'em a branch each up front
git branches are basically a symlink to a commit, they're dirt cheap 21:06
mst resists urge to try and write Yet Another Git Tutorial
dha To be clear, what's going on on this end is: I forked the perl6/doc repo some time back. As of the beginning of this whole mess, it was up to date with the upstream repo.
mst ... wait, I think I might have a really easy way to get you a chance to 'redo from start' without losing any work 21:07
[Coke] note that if you have commit bits on the original repo, you can skip the fork entirely and put your branches to be merged in the original repo and PR from those branches. 21:08
dha But, there have been merges along the way from the upstream repo, so as to keep my fork in sync. Those commits are *all* showing up when I make a PR.
[Coke] (to cut this knot going forward)
21:08 pullphinger left
[Coke] dha: you shouldn't be working in master in your fork if you're doing PRs 21:08
mst so, 'git format-patch origin/master' will turn each of your local commits into its own .patch file
dha Ah. That's probably what I missed.
[Coke] which doesn't help you clean up what you have today.
21:08 skids left
mst at which point, I would expect you can start again with a completely fresh fork 21:09
dha No. no it doesn't. I think at this point I should just shoot myself and avoid the christmas rush.
mst dha: yeah, GH workflow is fork, clone, 'git checkout -b mything', add comits, submit mything branch as PR, git checkout master, repeat
[Coke] how many commits are we talking about? if you made one huge PR and someone reviewed it...
21:09 geraud joined
dha Yep. I missed the branching part of that. 21:09
mst yes but (1) that would be a waste of a perfectly good bullet (2) we need your doc patches 21:10
(3) after bothering to try and explain it to you, clearly you owe me finishing the job, because the 10 minutes I spent totally give me the right to control your volunteer efforts, honest

stmuk_ github.com/perl6/doc/compare/maste...dha:master ? 21:11

dha Well, most of the commits I don't want to PR at all, but, basically, yes.
[Coke] - thanks. Do they also have a "how do I clean my master" entry? :-)

RabidGravy I'm your ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb! 21:30
literal is there a way to do an exact type check against a typename, analogous to «$foo.^name eq 'Hash'»? comparing against .WHAT seems to cause warnings, and smartmatching is too lax 21:31
dha ok, picking of cherry achieved.
dha pushes
Now which branch am I trying to do the PR from? 21:32
mst this_is_msts_fault
stevieb9 the one you just pushed
21:32 setty1 left
mst to perl6/doc/master 21:32
dha \o/ 21:33
It's now just the one commit.
mst++
stevieb9 after you've submitted the PR, don't forget to switch back to master, or you'll add more commits to the branch (and the PR) 21:34
mst right, at this point you can do 'git checkout master' to get back to your own master-with-stuff
then do 'git checkout -b this_went_horribly_wrong' to make a copy of it
then 'git checkout master' to go back to your master 21:35
then 'git reset --hard perl6/master' to force it to look like the upstream master
and then you can start from fresh
and cherry pick out anything else you want from this_went_horribly_wrong later
dha: oh, and before you do any of this, do a 'cp -a' in case it goes even more horribly wrong - I did those all the time while learning git 21:36
dha ok, done. 21:37
Thanks!
mst when it goes well, git is amazing. once you get into a mess, it's about as fun to escape as "I'm not sure what shape my undo tree in vim is but I am sure I can't find the state I wanted anymore" 21:38
hence the 'cp -a' every so often while you learn
dha *nod*
mst++
mst grins 21:39
dha is there any point to putting this_went_horribly_wrong up to github? 21:40
stevieb9 when we switched over to git from svn at work last year, there wasn't enough training, and those new to git caused all sorts of mayhem. Not fun
mst dha: backup, and being able to link it to other people later, and being able to clone it on another machine to steal more bits later 21:41
and if anybody judges you negatively on the contents of a branch with *that* name, I think they can safely be ignored
dha ok. :-)
AlexDaniel literal: what do you mean by smartmatching is too lax?
dha now I just have to remember how to do that.
stmuk_ there is actually one commit anyway .. github PR would have worked
mst dha: wait
dha waits
mst stmuk_: no, we spent a long time unfucking to get to having only one commit. 21:42
stmuk_: that was the entire conversation
dha: to get this_went up to GH:
stmuk_ the rest are just merges
mst dha: git checkout this_went_horribly_wrong; git push origin this_went_horribly_wrong;
dha: then to get your rest master back up to GH
dha: 'git checkout master; git push --force origin master'
stmuk_ so there is no point in saving anything
dha ok. 21:43
mst oh, the only commit with any contents at all is the one already PRed now?
dha pretty much.
mst then, yeah, who cares
git branch -D this_went_horribly_wrong; # and don't bother pushing it to origin 21:44
mst was doing belt-and-braces lets-not-lose-anything
dha eh. already pushed
mst without ever actually looking at the repo, because I was trying to achieve 'dha at least can pretend he knows what's going on' as well as things being sorted
stevieb9 having issues installing Inline::Python today. Started on FreeBSD, so when I got home I tried Ubuntu in hopes it was my box. Travis is not enabled, so I can't see if this is a global problem. Can someone please have a look to see if I'm missing something? gist.github.com/stevieb9/6e8afa08c...5d4bfac03b
mst dha: I mean, I can't magically teach you to understand all of git
dha: but, like, a delusional sense of warm fuzziness? that's a doabla goal :D 21:45
stevieb9 I'm installing the module per the CONTRIBUTING doc
for perl6/doc
stmuk_ this is clear from the url I gave at 2111 above
dha Hm. I checked out master and it's telling me I'm behind by 382 commits, and it can be fast-forwarded. It also says I can use git pull to update my local branch.
Should I do that, or is there something else I should do that will not screw up everything again? 21:46
Also, I'm happy to be deluded in a fuzzy manner.
mst dha: yeah, if it says 'it can be fast-forwarded' then a pull shouldn't break anything 21:47
dha ok. things have been pulled. I assume I should now push? 21:48
mst I tend to always specify a branch to push
so 'git push origin master'
dha ah. ok.
mst (this means that, have I screwed up another branch, I don't accidentally propagate that without noticing)
stevieb9 very good habit to get into for sure... 21:49
mst "if git was a physical tool, it would have black and yellow stripes"
dha Apparently everything is up to date.
...so it would be a bumblebee?
mst I don't know, it's rjbs' excuse for dzil having sharp edges
stmuk_ you should have made the whitespace changes in another commit really :) 21:50
dha Oh. sorry.

mst dha: later, we can talk about "how to hate yourself while turning one commit into two" 21:51
but right now it's 22:51 UK time
and i'm thinking it's time to start drinking
dha I don't actually need lessons on how to hate myself.
ooh. drinking.
I don't think I'm doing that until wednesday.
mst dha: no, but doing it *and* getting two working commits afterwards takes a little extra knowledge 21:52
you provide the generalised self hatred, i'll provide the git specific self hatred 21:53
SYNERGY!
dha deal.
stmuk_ | gist.github.com/stevieb9/6e8afa08c...5d4bfac03b 21:55
oops
AlexDaniel mst: just nuke this commit, and then add -p ?
mst: assuming that it's the last commit 21:56
stmuk_ stevieb9: are you using python from ports/pkg? if so you need to recompile your own with -fPIC
mst AlexDaniel: read through the past hour of backlog, then tell me again that you think dha's at a level where 'just' is a word that's even remotely sensible to use for explaining that 21:57
AlexDaniel I think that dha was doing great :)
dha Aw... thanks.
mst yes. but I wouldn't describe unwinding and re-assemblin a commit as 'just' for ... oh never mind
RabidGravy just drink beer and it will be fine 21:58
dha FWIW, I think I understand what you're suggesting, but not certain I would be able to actually implement it.
RabidGravy - that's your answer to everything.
mst dha: which is precisely why I was offering to talk you through it rather than the offhand 'just'
that's because it's a GOOD answer 21:59
dha And I thank you for it.

optimal as well

stmuk_ stevieb9: its probable noone has tried this under clang either 22:07

Hotkeys_ is there a way to bind to a class attribute 23:27
say I have some class Foo { has $.attr } and I want to bind some $bar = "bar"
to some $foo.attr 23:28
but I want $foo.attr to change if I change $bar
how would I do that?
Juerd I don't know how, or if it's even possible. 23:29
Why do you want this?
Hotkeys_ I'm just curious really
since you can bind to regular variables
awwaiid m: class Foo { has $.attr; method bindit($v is rw) { $!attr := $v } } ; my $x = 5; my $f = Foo.new; $f.bindit($x); say $f.attr; $x = 42; say $f.attr 23:35

yoleaux 5 Jun 2016 20:35Z <DrForr> awwaiid: It seems that lrepl only lets you invoke one middleware layer at a time, is this by design?
raydiak w
wrong terminal 23:36
though while I'm here...hi #perl6 \o 23:37
awwaiid DrForr: The intent, iirc, is for middleware to work very much like PSGI (rack, ring, wsgi,...) middleware -- each layer calls filters the data and invokes the next, and then can filter again on the way back out
23:37 spider-mario left
Hotkeys_ oh 23:38
thanks awwaiid
idk why i didn't think of that
awwaiid Hotkeys_: ya. It told me the left-hand-side couldn't be bound, so I figured wrapping it into a method so that the left-hand-side was more boring would work
23:39 wamba joined
awwaiid I don't know WHY you'd want to do that though :) 23:45
Juerd Binding at a distance sounds like a bad idea. 23:49
