Xliff It's Tuesday, Election Day here in the US. 02:24

Kinda hard, tho...
So I'm sipping a Cognac and Coke and listening to music. 02:25
Can someone tell me the best way to pass a function to a C-Callback?
method some_meth (&some_func (Type1, Type2, Type3)) seems like it should work, but doesn't. 02:26

Xliff All I really want is a signature that can take either of these: "$a.pass_func(-> $a, $b --> gint { ... })" OR "sub func($a, $b --> gint) { ... }; $a.pass_func(&func)" and pass that to a C function. 04:20
pass_func, in this case is a method. 04:21

AlexDaniel lucasb: I think it is a good idea to wait a bit before starting to discuss this stuff 12:26
lucasb: everyone is too emotional right now
12:26 p6bannerbot sets mode: +v domm
lucasb AlexDaniel: agreed, thanks for the advice :) 12:27
lizmat AlexDaniel++
lucasb so much passion
AlexDaniel lucasb: as for the wiki, I think it is needed (there were a couple of cases in the past). Right now stuff ends up here: github.com/rakudo/rakudo/wiki 12:29
lucasb: there's an interesting question as to which wiki engine should be used :)
lucasb MediaWiki, otherwise don't even bother :) 12:30
AlexDaniel lucasb: I mean, surely there are many great ones, but we love dogfooding, right?
lucasb perl 5 had an SocialText wiki, it didn't worked
nobody was familiar with the interface. everybody knows wikipedia
AlexDaniel perl5 also has oddmuse, and there's now oddmuse written in perl 6 github.com/kensanata/oddmuse6 12:31
it's in very early stages, so kinda not ready
lucasb I understand that. (Oddmuse (5) user myself :)
But I still think MediaWiki is the most appropriate one and robust for this situation 12:32
My idea is that only registered users would be able to edit pages. This avoid the spam/vandalism problem, right?
AlexDaniel lucasb: yeah, maybe. I'm not insisting on anything, just listing the options :)
lucasb: I dislike wikis that can't be edited without going through all the hoops to get your account ready… I just end up not contributing at all… 12:34
but it depends on what purposes we want to use it for
maybe using github accounts is possible? Like through OAuth apps or what is it called? I'm not sure
this: www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:OAuth2_Client 12:35
lucasb Well, if you are an P6 enthusiast, you only need to register an account once, and enjoy later. I think it's a good tradeoff to not have to deal with outside people disrupting the wiki 12:38
AlexDaniel yeah, but then we're missing out on microcontributions 12:40
with MediaWiki I'm pretty sure we can have very fine control over privileges and stuff, so that important pages are not disrupted 12:41
lucasb right, maybe it should start open and only get restricted if we face problems
needs an Apache server, PHP/MySQL instance. where would this run? in the p6c hack machine? 12:42
AlexDaniel lucasb: here's a repo that is related: github.com/perl6/infrastructure-doc 12:43
holyghost AFAIK the wikie syntax matters
s/wikie/wiki 12:44
AlexDaniel wonders if this extension is working at all www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Markdown 12:45

holyghost I meant in your browser 12:45

AlexDaniel lucasb: perhaps start with a docker image and then we figure out where to run it later :) 12:46
lucasb yes. I rememebered I had already populated an MediaWiki wiki with P6 content. I'll see if I can ressurect it 12:47
holyghost AlexDaniel: The wiki syntax in editing your browser should be straightforward
AlexDaniel holyghost: yeah, but that's the point of that extension 12:48
holyghost AlexDaniel: else you have to go to the help file
lucasb if Mediaw
holyghost FWIW
Don't turn in P6 just for wiki
lucasb if MediaWiki is chosen, then I think we should start with the standard MediaWiki syntax, and add anything later
holyghost You have to manage your users 12:49
AlexDaniel: I cannot lookup the extension here
AlexDaniel lucasb: I… I don't know… can't we try that markdown extension first? 12:50
personally I don't know mediawiki syntax, even though I've been wiki-ing a lot…
that “I don't know” lines up vertically :D 12:51
lucasb: oooh… right, we had a wiki 12:52
I forgot :)
it'd be good to figure out what went wrong with it
holyghost I don't want sf.net syntax
I'd rather be smalltalking on c2.com :-) 12:53

lucasb one more reason we should choose a mainstream engine :)
holyghost :-)
"Choose your syntax" TMOTOWTDI
lucasb although I like the idea of a git-backed wiki for my own personal usage, but not for a big open source project
holyghost true 12:59
To be honest, we need some hackers for the wikiweb imp. 13:01
smite it on a public repo and then we can follow 13:03
As I said, *turn on* your wiki syntax 13:04

one more question - when reading from files, we do have the lines method where it reads each line one after the other - do we have a possibility to read with user defined delimiters 15:09

El_Che stmuk_: for max 6 months, sure. 17:28
Altreus so I should be able to do $a = $a.lc.trim ~~ S/// 17:29
Correct? :s
El_Che stmuk_: how is star coming along. We've had sole questions last week
timotimo that will not do what you hope for, Altreus 17:30
El_Che some
timotimo it'll take the result of the S/// and smartmatch it against the LHS, though it will set the LHS as the $_ of the RHS
El_Che tablet typing sucks
timotimo so essentially it'll result in False, unless the substitution did nothing in which case it would result in True
Altreus Is that because LHS of ~~ is not a variable? 17:32
not bindable, or some similar concept?
timotimo no, it's because S/// is an operator that immediately does something
Altreus But I thought it did it to the LHS of ~~ 17:33
otherwise surely it can only ever apply to $_
tony-o lizmat++
Altreus which is not true of lowercase s///
tony-o just read the blog
17:34 scimon left
Altreus See 17:36
I told this non-programmer chap that in Perl6 we'd use ~~ instead of the .subst method
But now I'm thinking maybe not
I was like why use a method when there's an operator 17:37
timotimo i notice that i'm confused
i don't have a good explanation for why S/// and s/// behave so differently
Altreus tsuyoki naritai? did I get that right
timotimo paamayim nekudotayim 17:38
Altreus I did PHP for 4 years. You'll have to try harder than that.
timotimo i was not familiar with your term until now 17:39
moritz timotimo: the explanation has to do with smart-matching
timotimo moritz: s/// on its own also operates immediately, doesn't it?
moritz timotimo: it does
timotimo so the ACCEPTS method is called on the result of that, right?
moritz yes 17:40
but s/// can just return True
timotimo oh
moritz and True.ACCEPTS(anything) is always True
timotimo that makes total sense
moritz but S/// just returns the modified string
which is then passed to $lhs.ACCEPTS(...), where it's lost
Altreus total sense to you maybe 17:42
:P
This implies that $_ will be modified if I do $a ~~ s///
timotimo it's true! 17:43
Altreus It seems to me the whole point of doing that is to use $a *instead* of $_
on account of how I also write Perl5
this seems naughty
timotimo that's right
~~ binds $_ for you only in the right-hand-side of itself
so you don't have to my $_ := $a manually
Altreus ah! 17:44
so $a ~~ S/// is actually S'ing $a, but that returns a new $a, which is discarded
Whereas the lowercase s does ... something else, which $a can ACCEPT and thereby modify itself?
timotimo still not quite
let me try to desugar it somewhat
17:44 dakkar left
timotimo $a ~~ S/// works a lot like this: my $_ := $a; my $result = S///; return $result.ACCEPTS($a) 17:45
since S/// doesn't touch $_, it has no visible effect to the outside
and the result string will be used as the thing to smart match $a against 17:46
so you want the binding of $_, but not the match behaviour of ~~
that's why rakudo (should?) suggests using "given" instead
Altreus it did do that 17:47
and we followed suit
so the "side-effect" of mutating $_ is actually fine because ~~ gives us a super-local $_ for the purpose
Is .subst an acceptable alternative? 17:48
It seems a bit javascripty but I guess JS can be right sometimes
timotimo subst is an acceptable alternative 17:49
another is S[...] = ...
which is super funky
moritz wait what?
timotimo that doesn't exist? 17:50
m: my $_ = "hello"; my $result = S[ll] = 99; say $result; say $_

17:51 p6bannerbot sets mode: +v atweiden-air
timotimo :D 17:51
i did say it's super funky
Altreus I think I understand more things 17:53
Possibly not S[]
timotimo :D
Altreus unless I just pretend it's Perl5's substr all over again
timotimo how does that work?
do you assign into the result of a substr call to modify a string?
moritz substr($a, $from, $to) = $replacement
Altreus yes
timotimo ah
yeah, we do have substr-rw 17:54
moritz it's even *more* funky than that
Altreus but you can also just provide the replacement as the 4th parameter
moritz S[...], I mean
timotimo yeah, the thing about S[...] = ... is that it thunks the RHS
moritz because with s[...] = ... and the upper-case form, the right-hand side is evaluated for each match
Altreus well the other thing is that you had to set $_
I can do that anyway :P
I could have done that to solve my original question :D
wait hang on, this means that part of what I had was my $_ := $a.lc.trim; 17:55
I feel like there's a better way hiding in here 17:56
timotimo i'm not sure what code you're currently at, and what's bothering you about it
Altreus sorry, I was just thinking that when I did $a.lc.trim ~~ S///, the smartmatch put the trimmed string in $_
17:57 ExtraCrispy joined, p6bannerbot sets mode: +v ExtraCrispy, kvda joined
Altreus which means even though the expression looks immutable I could have used s/// on it ... which makes me feel like I could have got the mutated string more easily somehow 17:57

timotimo oh 17:57
m: my $a = " HELLO "; $a.lc.trim ~~ s/ll/0/; say $a; 17:58
camelia Cannot modify an immutable Str (hello)
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
timotimo you can not use s/// there
it binds to $_ rather than assigning to it

SmokeMachine m: class A does Sequence { method iterator is rw { ^Inf .iterator }; method cache {1, 2, 3} }; my @a = A.new; say @a # should it be a array of a list or just a list? 22:44

lucasb well, since the heated issue was closed and the weather looks calmer now I plan to submit a issue requesting a wiki, ok? It has nothing to do with naming, so no troubles :) 22:48
done here: github.com/perl6/user-experience/issues/34 22:50
ryn1x Is there a dynamic variable that shows if you are using v6.c from v6.d? 22:52
m: use v6.c; say $*PERL;
camelia Perl 6 (6.c)
ryn1x m: use v6.d; say $*PERL;
camelia Perl 6 (6.d)
ryn1x oh...
maybe it just doesnt work in the REPL... 22:53
SmokeMachine m: class A does Sequence { method iterator is rw { ^Inf .iterator } }; my @a = A.new; say @a # is it expected?
camelia [(...)]
SmokeMachine shouldn't be [...]? 22:54

timotimo i think it needs to be Iterable to be "extracted" into the array 22:58
SmokeMachine that's what I don't want... 23:00
Id like something like Seq...
m: my @a = Seq.new: ^Inf .iterator; say @a[0]
camelia 0
timotimo m: say Seq.^mro 23:01
camelia ((Seq) (Cool) (Any) (Mu))
timotimo m: say Seq.^mro(:all)
camelia Unexpected named argument 'all' passed
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
timotimo m: say Seq.^roles
camelia ((Sequence) (PositionalBindFailover) (Iterable))
SmokeMachine PositionalBindFailover makes the trick
timotimo see, Sequence doesn't imply Iterable

SmokeMachine rakudo.party/post/Perl-6-Seqs-Drug...tothecache 23:02
m: say Sequence.does: PositionalBindFailover
camelia True
timotimo assignment isn't binding
the PBF will happen when you pass something to a function or method for example if there's an @-sigiled parameter 23:03
SmokeMachine m: my @a = Seq.new: ^Inf .iterator
camelia ( no output )
SmokeMachine m: my @a := Seq.new: ^Inf .iterator
camelia Type check failed in binding; expected Positional but got Seq (?)
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
SmokeMachine timotimo: I think the name is bind, but it works for assignment... ^^ 23:04
timotimo perhaps it only works for the binding we have for signatures
ryn1x Is it possible to `use v6.c` in the repl?
SmokeMachine m: my @a = Seq.new: ^Inf .iterator # timotimo: here its working... 23:05
camelia ( no output )
SmokeMachine timotimo: thanks! 23:07
