japhb Anyone know how often raku.land and modules.raku.org update? 07:28
tellable6 2021-06-05T17:13:48Z #raku <holly> japhb : thanks, I joined :-)
japhb After uploading to fez and doing `zef update`, my uploads are visible via `zef info` pretty quickly, but it's not clear what the expected delay is for the websites. 07:29
raydiak if the readme is still accurate, an update is started on the 20th and 50th minutes of every hour. the last 2 update logs seemed to coroborate this. the most recent update took about 22 minutes and completed at 8:12 UTC (10 minutes ago) 08:22
that's for modules.raku.org 08:23
I don't pay much attention to raku.land because it doesn't index version * modules (all of my modules). but according to gitlab.com/raku-land/raku-land/-/jobs it runs every 3 hours, about 5ish minutes after the start of hours which are integer multiples of 3, and takes less than 3 minutes to complete 08:31
japhb Thank you, raydiak. Seems like raku.land could probably update a lot more often (as often as modules.raku.org, for instance). 09:08
raydiak happy to help. maybe it's a restriction of gitlab...looks like free accounts only get 400 ci/cd minutes per month. by those numbers it's already exceeding that, so JRaspass++ is already being forced into paying for it, and maybe spending his minutes on other projects as well 09:15
Geth ¦ problem-solving: JJ assigned to codesections Issue There should be a (relatively easy) way to specify how to test for non-Raku dependencies github.com/Raku/problem-solving/issues/283 09:20
nine raydiak: why don't you give your modules proper versions? 09:27
japhb raydiak: Ooof, yeah, having to pay extra would hurt. 09:35
raydiak nine: a few reasons, basically all just a mix of historical baggage, stubborn opinionatedness, laziness, and indecision. they were all written at a time when that was a more common and accepted practice, didn't matter to the ecosystem or old tools. none of them were ever really done enough to be considered even in beta, so I regarded versioning as largely pointless. my work on them moved in highly variable 09:40
patterns that didn't necessarily lend themselves well to clear separation between one version and the next. I don't like the maintenance aspect of having to update the number or complicate my process with some tool to handle it for me. I don't like the muddling of api version and version version we have now. and at this point I haven't decided whether I'm going to develop them, maintain them, or abandon
them
understand, I don't regard most of that as valid and reasonable decision-making process. it's just the truth 09:41

Xliff I'm trying to learn some of RakuAST. Can anyone involved tell me where the best place is to look for all nodes involved in method creation? 19:56
Thanks.
19:59 dogbert17 left
raydiak looks like method nodes are defined in github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/raku...de.rakumod 20:44
MasterDuke Xliff: you might be interested in github.com/rakudo/rakudo/tree/spee...call_setup and github.com/MoarVM/MoarVM/tree/set_...ialization 21:01
not related to rakuast, but for nativecall compilation speedups
Xliff Masterduke++ # Thanks!\ 21:47

^^ jnthn timotimo lizmat 22:22
japhb It looks like there are some bugs in there. Freehanded? 22:23
Also, I think it's just 'timo' here on Libera.Chat 22:28
raydiak some bugs? either I'm really confused about what I'm reading in rakuast, or the whole thing is imagined...maybe intended as pseudocode or something? 22:53
Xliff japhb: Yeah, freehanded pseudocode. 22:55
Bugs? Pleae eludiate.
Wording updated for clarity. # ( 22:57

# (No that is not valid...)
raydiak by bugs I think he just meant it won't run. but if you intended it as pseudocode, that explains it. from my understanding, that's somewhat like what it'll look like, yes. just the node names are mostly different and arranged a little differently in places, constructor parameters are named instead of positional unless there's only one of them, stuff like that. but you do have the general idea in a very
high-level sense, yes
Xliff Thanks! 23:01
I just don't know where to find the actual nodes in the source to get everything correct.
raydiak you're welcome
I don't think there's a document listing them yet, but theyu're all defined in github.com/rakudo/rakudo/tree/raku...c/Raku/ast 23:02
Xliff Yeah, but I have no idea where to start. I think I'll look into the tests, for now,.
raydiak it's not too hard to read. methods and subs and blocks and such are in code.rakumod, variable decls are in variable-declaration, variable access in variable-access, method/sub calls are in call, etc. reading the tests is a good idea, I haven't even looked at those yet 23:05
Xliff Thanks for that!
raydiak sure thing, yw 23:06
