Remove distributions by 7ojo

Jarkko Haapalainen has archived these repositories in 2018 already, so no updates can be expected, so the versions in the REA will be up to date		 10:34

tbrowder need some advice, pls: i have a class that encapsulates all glyph info on one font at one scaled size. i want it to have a method to calculate the several attributes of a string set with that class and pass all to a caller. the returned object would be a struct in C++. would (or could) such an object in Raku be an "is built" class? in short, what does the "is built" trait mean? 12:11
hm, i could just as well return a Hash 12:13
never mind. got it. thanks. 12:16
(aka throw it up on the wall and see if it sticks) 12:17
Geth ecosystem/main: 34028b28a2 | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | META.list
Remove Linux::Process::SignalInfo

as its repo has been archived, so the version in the REA is up-tp-date		 12:20
ecosystem/main: ae7ca6f4fb | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | META.list
Remove heather/ignore

This repository no longer exists		 12:30
antononcube @tbrowder I've argued here before with others telling them that I cannot do data wrangling with their classes, and I would rather use the Hash representation instead. 12:46
Geth ecosystem/main: af057cd416 | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | META.list
Remove distribution as a gist

This is no longer supported indirectly anyway, so the version in the REA is up to date		 12:58

guifa ugh why does macOS make it so hard to have a window with a title bar but also no bottom corners. *sigh* 15:51
tellable6 2024-07-22T18:52:55Z #raku-dev <lizmat> guifa sorry, there's not enough Raku content on that page
guifa doesn't even remember what he sent lizmat lol 15:52

guifa hooray 16:58
I now have a functioning canvas-y like module
make a canvas with a height/width, and then it opens up a window you can draw in
right now hyper limited (pixel only drawing, and mac only) but hey, it's a start
lizmat guifa++ 16:59
guifa but it does have two way communication between the canvas process so could lead way to clickable elements too 17:00
antononcube Interesting. 17:03
guifa Unfortuately right now you can't just send a gazillion operations at once, as I'm lazy and using a WebView canvas 17:19
and I think if I make too many calls to JS at once some wires get crossed and it crashes, so I probably need to make a queue but I'm *really* lazy lol 17:20
17:27 gfldex left
antononcube @guifa So, my "JavaScripdt::D3" is better than yours! 17:32
17:33 gfldex joined
I do have the problem that JS graphics (and, hence, "JavaScripdt::D3") do not render reliably in Jupyter. 17:33
@guifa I have been thinking what would be a Raku-graphics system developed "from scratch." I assume your "Canvas" efforts are from that POV? 17:34
(I am only interested in hijacking some established solutions, not developing a graphics system from scratch.) 17:35
guifa I guess yeah. Basically you'll say Canvas.new(width => ..., height => ...); and then set pixels with, e.g. Canvas.pixel(x,y,r,g,b) 17:37
the first one launches the subprocess with the height/width args, and then a communication link is formed
commands are literally as simple as "pixel(50,50,0,0,0)" which sets the pixel at 50,50 to black 17:38
or title("Foo") which sets the title bar
antononcube 👍 17:39
guifa obvs next is to add basic line / rect support. image will be trickier
antononcube Right, that is why I use "D3.js" those kind of things are solved. 17:40
And 'Google Charts" is even more "pre-canned."
guifa I like doing the lower level stuff ha (although just getting a raw set of bytes to write into for graphics is surprisingly more complicated than I thought it would be, so much is designed to be much more higher level) 17:41
holmdunc A binding to this could be good for easy pixel-level drawing github.com/emoon/minifb 17:44
17:48 Aedil joined
guifa ah that's basically what I'm doing haha 17:51
17:51 skyesoss joined
holmdunc HTML <canvas> is probably better though, cos on most OS its drawing functions are likely GPU-accelerated 17:56
guifa And any system that supports a WebView will have it work. It also has a really simple mental model, which is good enough for me. If I need more, if I've got a simple enough protocol I can switch to another library later 18:02

[Coke] the authors and auth for raku/doc is listed as "perl6" - it's not currently installable, but I want to update those. any issue just changing them to "raku" ? 18:36
