quipa Hello! New to perl6, trying it out on a Linux Mint box. When running a perl6 in the terminal I get "Reading from filehandle failed: Resource temporarily unavailable" error 02:45

Kaiepi is there a way to bind lexical symbols at runtime? i tried using nqp::bindlex, but it complains about the value being QAST::Node 03:03
quipa hum close the terminal and opened a new one that seemed to solve it.. Maybe because I just installed it 03:07

it's weird.

it's like, I imagine a "Perl 6 Best Practices" would say the same

mornfall sena_kun: thanks 10:33
pmurias what should $*CWD return in the browser?
a roast tests checks that the CWD is the same at compile and runtime, so I'm thinking of making it pluggable by setting window.NQP_CWD 10:36
mornfall you could also just set it to /? 10:37
10:40 cpan-p6 left, cpan-p6 joined
pmurias mornfall: I'm not sure what it's supposed to mean when running in the browser 10:41
10:42 ExtraCrispy left
mornfall well, there is a filesystem webapi now... but outside of that, probably nothing 10:42
pmurias mornfall: does a current working directory make any sense when working with that? 10:49
mornfall pmurias: possibly not in the api itself, but if you wanted to make a posix-like wrapper around it, then you would keep track of the cwd yes 10:51
pmurias it seems to the plan for giving browser access for files is to allow the user to manually select directories and files for the web app to work on
jast I don't think CWD has any meaning in a web context 10:53
SmokeMachine tbrowder: ok... 10:54
pmurias mornfall: I could imagine asking the user to pick a directory (using a file picker dialog) to select the 'current working directory' he wants a ported app to work on 10:55
10:55 ExtraCrispy joined
jast I don't think any web API is going to give you the level of access needed to actually do something with a picked directory 10:57
pmurias jast: why not?
mornfall no, what i mean is that if you want things like spurt/slurp and so on work using the web api, you need to also keep track of cwd
jast all the new APIs are always about the sandboxing 10:58
for instance, mozilla's non-standard file system API restricts you to a virtual filesystem
mornfall jast: the webapp gets a filesystem sandbox in which it can create files and directories
pmurias jast: they want to support things like ides and text editors
ryanth Alright, I'm a few years out of the loop. How/where do I get the source to build 2019.3 (or .3.1)?
jast and in a virtual filesystem, sure, technically you can let the user pick something, but you're not going to be able to access anything that exists in your actual filesystem 10:59
ryanth Been all over rakudo.org and github, but couldn't see an obvious branch to clone.
pmurias I assume goal is for the browser to take over all the electron apps
jast in fact even the browser extension APIs are getting locked down like this
you can't do arbitrary filesystem access in WebExtensions 11:00
timotimo ryanth: you'll want the "compiler only installation" for now
that'll have your 2019.03.1 and 2019.03 as well as older ones
ryanth timotimo: Cheers, I'll check that out.
jast I wanted to write an extension recently to interact with a native program via the filesystem, but that would have required me to write a second native program that implements the WebExtensions native messaging interface and that does all the heavy lifting 11:01
11:01 cpan-p6 left, cpan-p6 joined
timotimo jast: there are many programs that you can just natively use via a simple JSONRPC API for full filesystem access 11:01
many of which tend to already be installed on a regular user's system 11:02
i don't remember what exactly it was, but i think some antivirus solution had that feature
jast but you can't just launch arbitrary binaries in WebExtensions
it's all incredibly tedious
to get any native access at all you need to deploy a binary of your own, along with a manifest file put in a specific location 11:03
or something like that. I read through the docs and immediately decided not to bother with it
11:03 quipa joined 11:04 ravenousmoose joined
jast instead I made a separate HTTP application server that my extension would communicate with, that way I "only" had to disable the browser's restrictions about secure pages not being allowed to connect to plain HTTP websockets (even on localhost, even within an extension) 11:04
timotimo other programs get around that problem by installing their own root certificate in the user's system :) :) :) 11:09
11:10 ravenousmoose left, domidumont left
jast timotimo: gosh, why didn't I think of that :) :) :) 11:14
I'm all in favour of installs requiring elevated privileges all the time, conditions users to just confirm all the prompts which can only be a good thing 11:15
timotimo it's so hilarious when software to make browsing more secure ends up just putting a root certificate on your system *including the private key* which is *the same on all machines* 11:16
jast plot twist: it's the same root certificate they use in their CA business 11:17
timotimo that didn't actually happen, right?
jast no, but I recall one of the big names accidentally included their code signing key in a public repo once
timotimo ouch. 11:18
jast it's amazing enough how many developers just version control *everything*, including the config files containing secrets 11:19
timotimo does github nowadays automatically point out when you're uploading something with "START SECRET KEY" in it or something? 11:21
jast beats me... I never do that :)
timotimo i seem to recall a pre-made url for the github search that would just find every private key on the whole site
jast because I don't make mistaeks
timotimo oh, that's good
jast I'm infallable
timotimo but do you actually do stuff? 11:22
jast sure
timotimo OK

kawaii timotimo: don't suppose I can annoy you sometime this week about using your library (cairo) in part of an upcoming feature in one of my Discord bots? Want to generate an SVG image on the fly using it based on a template SVG + some data (such as user level and experience points) which will determine the size and text of some other attributes :) 17:28

yoleaux I saw finanalyst 1 Jan 2019 05:30Z in #perl6: <finanalyst> Zoffix: I came on to ask about why docs.perl6.org was down, and you just fixed it. Thanks. Sort of faster than light for me :)

tbrowder antoniogamiz: hi! welcome! finanalyst is moving back the UK from the other side of the world, so i'm not sure when we will be hearing from him. jjmerelo is probably the one most familiar with the state and direction of his work today. ref your proposal, it looks like a decent start but will need to be more detailed i think. have you looked at examples of projects accepted for gsoc? have you been able to follow at least some 18:13
part of the thread of finanalyst's discussions on his work on the docs?
18:14 zacts joined 18:16 pistacchio joined
antoniogamiz tbrowder: yep it's quite sort for the moment, I plan to have a meeting with jmerelo and I wanted that you knew about my proposal because you are a mentar too 18:19
tbrowder ok, thanks. i'm really more of a draftee assistant! :-) 18:20
antoniogamiz tbrowder: ah ok, anyway it's good to know your opinion :) 18:21
referring the thread of finanalyst's discussion, i only have seen the redesing proposal and how are made some modules used to generate the docs 18:22

discord6 <Rogue> Where might one use the anon declarator? I can't think of any non-trivial use case for it, but I'm sure there is one 22:00
22:01 leont joined
discord6 <Vendethiel> I use it often for regex, sometimes for subs 22:02
<Vendethiel> Sometimes I just use ::
moritz you use anon when you want to create something that knows its own type, but don't want to install the name 22:03
m: my $cb = anon sub destroy-the-world() { die "fuuuu" }; say $cb.name
camelia destroy-the-world
moritz this makes debugging in callback hell a bit easier
timotimo that knows its own name* 22:06
you can have multiple declarations with the same name in the same scope, too, without issue
