nurturethevibe Are there any maintained Raku discord packages? 00:55
iamllcoolray There is only one package that I've found but the last commit was 3 years ago 01:01
ab5tract Well, Raku distributions tend to age pretty decently, thank god 01:03
I think it only becomes considered unmaintained after some moths of an issue or PR being ignored 01:04
Otherwise, “it doesn’t need a fix unless you can break it”
01:10 yewscion joined
ab5tract I guess an exception of this is when protocols are shifting/advancing 01:14
tbrowder timo did you just recently email the gnucash user list? 01:18

wayland76 ab5tract / librasteve : Thanks for the help with the Dockerfiles. I was referring to hub.docker.com/r/tonyodell/rakudo-nightly/tags . It turned out to be a permissions problem. Now Raku::Pod::Render is complaining because it can't find npm, which is apparently needed for highlighting. I can sort that one though :) 10:14

wayland76 Not sure whom I should tell, but while running a zef install that included Pod::To::HTML on the nightly branch, I got the following errors. gist.github.com/wayland/bcac60c142...f6f13f72eb . Since Pod::To::HTML doesn't seem to have changed, I'm wondering if it's caused by a change in the nightly. Probably a known bug, but thought I should mention it. 11:13

wayland76 timo / tbrowder : Is someone using GnuCash and Raku together? 11:31
nurturethevibe / iamllcoolray : Raku puts in a lot of effort to maintain backwards compatibility. That's the foundation for ab5tract's comments. 11:33
lizmat wayland76: is that repeatable ? 11:48
if so, please make an issue :-)
wayland76 lizmat: OK. On rakudo? I'll try to reduce it to something a bit more minimal than what I have now. 11:56
11:57 yewscion joined
lizmat yes, and wayland++ 11:57

tbrowder wayland76: i'm working on a raku module that uses Yahoo Finance data for analysing some missing data in some very old tax records from the very early days of the internet. i was hoping to use perl Finance::Quote along with Gnucash but the old Yahoo Finance JSON API is no longer available. 13:13
BUT there is now financeapi.net which looks very usable. i am going to add that to my mos 13:14
module and i will release it when i get it working for me. (probably without the api--that should be a separate module anyway) 13:16
i love gnucash, but i'm not a good enough bookkeeper to keep detailed records, and am too lazy to duplicate work our bank and financial firms already do and those records are already available. 13:21

tbrowder i asked about timo and gnucash here because i saw a user "timo" on gnucash users email list. 13:47
btw, i just signed up for free financeapi.net acct and tried it out. i got yesterday's closing price for one of our securities and it checked out correctly according to Yahoo Finance. i haven't read anywhere yet what their timestamp is but it looks like seconds from one of our standard DateTime epocs. 13:52
try it, you'll like it, at least for us mkts. someone give me a symbol for a non-us stock and i'll try it out. it may require a country code, too. 13:54
antononcube can probably llm that stuff

tbrowder ok, it does market queries in country codes: gb ca fr es de au hk in it 14:30
pretty broad coverage...exciting stuff 14:31

tbrowder what the best current module for making json queries to a remote server? i've used LibCurl, but i don't see any that are in the Fez archive. 18:36
18:42 librasteve left
refactus idk which is best but looks like http::useragent and http::tinyish are both at least current enough to be on zef instead of p6c or cpan. lots of other options if you search raku.land for curl or http, but most look pretty abandoned 18:51
timo is there something you don't like about the http client that Cro has?
18:59 stanrifkin left 19:01 librasteve joined 19:04 yewscion joined
librasteve just did my homework ... wanted to see hoe to use Cro::HTTP::Client for json ... cro.raku.org/docs/reference/cro-ht...ponse_body 19:05

tbrowder i forgot about the Cro* i always think its for local https stuff... 20:34
librasteve ;-) 20:38
tbrowder librasteve: yr query ok? 20:45
librasteve hi tom - sorry i don't understand your question... 20:47
tbrowder oh, i thought you were trying Cro with some kind of query to a remote server 20:54
librasteve no, i was just reading the Cro docs to remind myself how to use Cro for JSON stuff ... there's a lot in HTMX about playing nice with JSON APIs so I thought I had better check that HARC can do that (the C in HARC being Cro, of course) 20:57
tbrowder well i'm gonna try it out...after i get a handle on my desired query's json api 21:03

Voldenet some people use `for @x { .say }`, but I really adore `(^@k).map({ @k[$_].say })` - it's essentially the same but a lot more playful 22:33
# it's a joke
