patrickb The p6c ecosystem is unversioned, and just installs the latest commit in a given repository, correct? 09:34
I am struggeling to force a module (NativeHelpers-Blob) to install the latest commit. zef seems to fall back to what I installed last time. 09:35

sena_kun patrickb, what is your command? just `zef install NativeHelpers::Blob`? 10:06
10:06 cpan-p6 joined
patrickb sena_kun: I tried: `zef install NH::B`, `zef update` then `zef install NH::B`, `zef uninstall NH::B` then `zef install NH::B`, `zef upgrade NH::B` 10:07
Could it be, that zef won't refetch the repo as long as the version number does not increase in the repo? 10:09
sena_kun it may be it. 10:10
but I wonder why it didn't work out after uninstall. 10:11
patrickb :-( That would mean, that people end up having different things installed, depending on when they installed it in the first place.
discord6 <kawaii> I think that's correct, with my own module I just resorted to cloning it and doing zef install $PWD each time I want to update it.
patrickb I think that's worth a bug report for zef.
sena_kun well, the github approach is a bit fragile anyway, I think. I wonder if something like stackage can be suitable. 10:12
discord6 <kawaii> I wonder why cpan5 wasn't just duplicated for perl6? 10:14
patrickb kawaii: Well we are reusing cpan5 in perl6. The ecosystem is rather quickly moving over there currently. 10:15
discord6 <kawaii> ecosystem aside, is this the correct place to post lengthy (and messy) perl 6 code snippets that are buggy and ask where I should even start debugging it? :] 10:16
sena_kun it is the right place. :) 10:17
discord6 <kawaii> This is part of my first real Perl 6 application, so be kind. :] gist.github.com/kawaii/32762d9cf40...434ed8b61c my problem lies within the grant-level-roles routine, which will sometimes freak out and assign a user all or some of the role IDs from the %level-roles hash, and I'm really unsure why or where I need to start debugging the issue. 10:18
10:19 cpan-p6 left
discord6 <kawaii> i.e. it assigns the user roles which they don't have the required experience points for, so maybe the issues lies in the calculate-level or get-user-xp routines? 10:20

sena_kun are you sure there are no races in calling code? 10:27
I don't see anything too wrong with your gist, but "sometimes it behaves odd, but most of the time it is ok" sounds like a race to me. 10:28
discord6 <kawaii> I don't understand how it can be a race condition though when surely I'm just doing a single query to get a value from the database, and using that in some synchronous routines. 10:35
10:36 zakharyas left
sena_kun well, I don't see any top-level calls or MAIN, so I have assumed you are calling this code from some outer place. If it is synchronous too, then I wonder what it can be. 10:37
discord6 <kawaii> sena_kun: I have extended the gist with my MAIN :] 10:39
<kawaii> that code is async, but I wasn't aware it could cause issues in the way it is
10:42 rindolf left
sena_kun well, no, `whenever` is thread-safe. 10:42

patrickb pmurias: They are!
We actually encourage students to come forward if they have an idea. 10:58
(see perl-gsoc-2019.github.io/ideas/)
sena_kun I wonder if "Linking Perl6 for MoarVM" is already done(at least partially). 11:02
not yet merged though.
patrickb sena_kun: As you say. But I'd say that's the minor part of that project. So once that branch is merged I'd ask brrt to change the description a little and all is good. 11:04

jkramer Is there a workaround for using URI with URLs that contain unicode characters? I tried URI.new($u.decode) but then it dies saying it only allows named arguments 16:45
16:45 cpan-p6 left, cpan-p6 joined
jmerelo jkramer: that's unrelated. You probably need to find out what's the name of the named argument it's looking for. 16:45
jkramer There's already an issue but it's pretty old and no one seems to care :/ github.com/perl6-community-modules.../issues/38 16:46
jmerelo jkramer: right... those community modules really need some love.
jkramer jmerelo: Well URI.new($url) works when $url is a Str
jmerelo jkramer: looking at the source now, trying to figure it out... 16:47
but $u.decode might not be a string. Maybe it's a Buf?
jkramer Yes it is, I was just trying stuff to work around the unicode problem :) 16:48
16:48 ChristopherBotto joined
jkramer So apparently it only accepts Str and they may not contain "special" unicode characters, including umlauts :/ 16:48
timotimo i think you have to use URI.parse rather than URI.new?
jmerelo jkramer: there are only two "new", both take a Str, one as a named argument, the other as a positional. You will need to render it to a Str
timotimo oh
nope
16:49 choiboi left
jmerelo jkramer: it accepts special characters as long as they are rendered to a Str, is what I understand. 16:49
jkramer timotimo: Just looking at the code, .new just calls .parse
timotimo OK. when you're not passing the Str $uri or Str :$uri, you'll get the default constructor, which probably wants to be shadowed
ChristopherBotto Hi everyone. o/

timotimo oh, so maybe only https is broken?
that's not it, either
jmerelo If it works only for some, could it be some DNS problem? 16:52
timotimo on my end rakudo.org gives the front page to the p6c servers
ChristopherBotto I even installed a new copy of wget with openssl, but it doesn't work.
jmerelo Maybe it has not propagated everywhere?
ChristopherBotto But downloading perl5 from an HTTPS address isn't a problem (i.e. wget www.cpan.org/src/5.0/perl-5.28.1.tar.gz)

jkramer jmerelo: What did you mean with "rendered to a Str"?
16:58 cpan-p6 left, cpan-p6 joined 16:59 brrt`` joined
ChristopherBotto It looks like IPv6 for rakudo.org is what is having issues, as far as I can tell. 16:59
jmerelo jkramer: you can convert a buf to a string, interpreting it as utf8-c8 or whatever. Let me see if I find how.
jkramer: right, it's simply decode. it will decode to UTF8 by default. Maybe you need utf8-c8. I'd need to see the whole thing. 17:00
17:01 AlexDaniel joined
jkramer jmerelo: So I need to encode my Str to utf8/utf8-c8 first and then decode it back to Str using some other encoding, hoping the validation won't complain? 17:03
jmerelo jkramer: that very much depend on where your string comes from. if it's already a Str, you should be good to go. If you're reading it raw from somewhere, you might need to decode using that to a Str. 17:04
jkramer: but it's always better to see the whole thing, if possible. It might still be a URI bug, the one you've pointed to. Let me see if I can add a test or something. 17:05
jkramer jmerelo: It's already a Str, but it's not accepted. I tried fooling URI by decoding/encoding it but nothing seems to work. :/
jmerelo: The whole thing: URI.new('test.de/ö')
jmerelo jkramer: OK; let's try then with a test. 17:06
17:06 abraxxa left
timotimo encoding something as utf8-c8 and decoding it as utf8 on the other end will give you a fun surprise 17:06
jkramer timotimo: Tried that to, decoding it works but than URI complains again that it can't work with the ö :) 17:07
17:07 scimon joined
jkramer I'm too tired for typing propertly 17:07
jmerelo jkramer: this works: $u = URI.new(uri-escape('test.de/ö')); 17:08
Let's see if it also does what is should do 17:09
timotimo ö isn't something that utf8-c8 would be useful for anyway
jmerelo without the uri-escape it says "could not parse URI". But I think we shouldn't need to uri-escape to, well, create an URI. 17:10
jkramer jmerelo: uri-escape with the full url generates this: http%3A%2F%2Ftest.de%2F%C3%B6
jmerelo jkramer: I hadn't seen that, but anyway that's bad.
jkramer I think it's only meant for parameters and stuff, not the whole URL
jmerelo jkramer: correct
17:11 cpan-p6 left, cpan-p6 joined
jmerelo jkramer: it's using a grammar 17:12
jkramer: and the grammar is not tested... 17:13
jkramer Yep I've had a short look at it but no idea what it's doing with those pchar and unenc-pchar thingies
17:13 abraxxa joined
timotimo domain names aren't urlencoded, they are punycode-encoded 17:15
jmerelo Well token uri-alpha { <[A..Za..z]> };
timotimo only the part after the / (fragment?) is urlencoded if at all
17:17 abraxxa left
jmerelo jkramer: fixed and bumped up version 17:18

jmerelo MidCheck: there's the organization page summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organi...99357952/; the ideas page is linked from there
discord6 <Rogue> Thanks
jmerelo MidCheck: you can check out the ideas already posted, or post new ones as issues. If you want a bit of orientation, just ask!
MidCheck i like Improving Decoding Modularity and Implementing the GB2312 Encoding (Simplified Chinese) 17:32

discord6 <Rogue> Oh boy, "Documentation Tooling Revamp" sounds like a lot of fun 17:33
jmerelo It could be
jkramer jmerelo: Awesome, thanks! 17:34
jmerelo And it will have a big impact on the community. And it involves a lot of low-to-intermediate Perl 6 to learn. Plus it's something we sorely need
jkramer: sure :-)
discord6 <Rogue> Oh man, if we could get single executables for programs, that would be fantastic. I have a friend who would use Perl 6 but needs to be able to ship a single executable
jmerelo Rogue: just suggest it as a project, in an issue, or if you want to be a mentor, as a full-fledged project. I think that would be nice too. 17:35
discord6 <Rogue> I was referring to "Linking Perl 6 Compiler and Programs" on the ideas list 17:36
jmerelo MidCheck: it's Samantha McVey who's proposed that project. You can try and contact her through an issue to the site, mentioning her. She's here from time, too.
.seen samcv 17:37
yoleaux I saw samcv 07:00Z in #perl6: <samcv> do we have any perl 5 projects?
jmerelo Rogue Oh, I had missed that one. 17:38
MidCheck jmerelo: thank you, I found her in the list and sent hello 17:39
DrForr waves weakly.
discord6 <Rogue> Does Moar actually depend on any shared libs during runtime?
jmerelo MidCheck: great. Good luck!
MidCheck But my country has restricted some websites so that I can't access it.
jmerelo o/ DrForr
MidCheck: where are you from if I may ask?
DrForr MidCheck: VPN?
AlexDaniel hm, maybe it's a good idea to have a project related to tooling for rakudo releases… this way we'd at least find a new release manager :)
MidCheck China
jmerelo AlexDaniel: do propose it. 17:40
AlexDaniel jmerelo: ok what's the process exactly? I'm a bit lost
jmerelo AlexDaniel: full-fledged project (with mentors), PR with file following that format. Half-baked, an issue. They we'll try to find mentors, if the students go for it. 17:41
AlexDaniel jmerelo: ok 17:42
17:42 aindilis left
MidCheck DrForr: my country has blocked all vpn sites and cannot download them. 17:42
jmerelo MidCheck: but that might be a problem. Can you work with GitHub then?
MidCheck jmerelo: yes, i can 17:43
jmerelo MidCheck: then you're good to go, I guess, although filling some forms might be a problem. Just check with us if you need help there when the time to apply comes. 17:44

MidCheck jmerelo: Yes, I am very happy to do this because I really like perl6. Thank you for your help 17:47

jmerelo MidCheck: happy to serve :-) 17:50
Kaiepi i've been looking through the page on the perl foundation in google's summer of code and came across this in perl-gsoc-2019.github.io/ideas/per...nking.html 17:52
perl6 --compile foo.pl6 would generate an executable that would be, to some reasonable degree, self-contained (for instance, could be copied to a docker container).
i wouldn't recommend this, docker doesn't run on openbsd
jmerelo Kaiepi: do you suggest to just eliminate the reference to Docker? 17:53
Kaiepi sure
brrt`` ho
I think there's a misunderstanding 17:54
jmerelo hi, brrt``
brrt`` what i meant by that is, it is 'self-contained', and can be copied integrally, without copying the interpreter, its environment
hi jmerel
hi jmerelo
17:54 rindolf left
brrt`` it's a reference to a potential use case, not a solution 17:55
Kaiepi oh
brrt`` maybe that wants a clarification
Kaiepi yeah
jmerelo brrt``: you can actually create docker containers right now without making any big fuss. Having a single file makes it only marginally easier. 17:56
brrt`` I know :-)
Kaiepi tbf you can use docker on openbsd, but you need an alpine vm for it
jmerelo brrt``: maybe a better use case could be used. Like "turnkey projects for customers", "protect intellectual property", I don't know, that kind of stuff 17:57
brrt`` I think the idea is 'copyable to a compatible machine' 17:58
17:59 cpan-p6 left
jmerelo brrt``: that, too. 17:59
brrt`` anyway, ehm, feel free to change it
17:59 cpan-p6 joined, hobbs left
jmerelo brrt``: if that's OK for Kaiepi and yourself, I might add something like that. 17:59
brrt`` just wanted to clarify that I didn't mean a docker container would be how the solution ought to look
alright, /me afk
Kaiepi that's fine
18:00 brrt`` left
Kaiepi (alpine is the only distro i know of that works with vmd, i tried running debian and could only get around halfway through. maybe slackware/arch/gentoo work) 18:01

kurahaupo is annoyed at the Alpine Linux distro for stealing the name of a great email client. 18:14
jmerelo kurahaupo: wasn't that simply "Pine" 18:15
and then "elm"
18:15 zacts joined
jmerelo Or did elm come before pine? 18:15
DrForr Elm, I think. Pine was around the time of pico, IIRC 18:18
El_Che DrForr: Pico was the editor op pine 18:26
Mutt was written because of the non-free license of Pine
18:26 cpan-p6 left 18:27 cpan-p6 joined 18:30 choiboi joined
japhb Mutt is right up there with git as proof that software having a crappy license can be completely eclipsed by a far better replacement supposedly only created because of the crappy license. 18:30
DrForr I remember using elm, but that's bout as far back as the dimm recesses go... 18:35

to install perl6 in ubuntu 16.04, have I to compile from source or there is another option?

thundergnat antoniogamiz: Maybe take a look at this page and see if it helps? github.com/nxadm/rakudo-pkg#debian-and-ubuntu 22:18
22:20 zacts joined
antoniogamiz thundergnat: thanks for the info! I've found an official package (apt install rakudo)! :D 22:20
but for some reason zsh could not find it so I didntt know it existed 22:21
thundergnat antoniogamiz: Just be aware that some of the official packages are pretty old. And Perl 6 is still a fast moving target.
antoniogamiz thundergnat: mmm I will keep that in mind! gonna take a look at the link then 22:23
thundergnat If / when you do get it installed, do a >perl6 -v to see what version you have. Anything older than 2018.06 is probably worth looking for something more recent.
antoniogamiz the official package installed a version frrom 2015 O.o 22:25
I'm going to update yep
thundergnat Heh. yeah, that's old...
