Demos[m] What;s the difference between a parameter Mu ::Type and Mu:U $type? 04:43
guifa2 Mu ::Type captures the type of the object, regardless of whether it's defined or not 05:33
Mu:U $type requires you to pass an undefined object
m: sub foo(Mu ::Type) { say Type}; foo 2; foo Int; 05:34
camelia (Int)
(Int)
guifa2 m: sub foo(Mu:U $type) { say $type }; foo Int; foo 2 05:35
camelia (Int)
Parameter '$type' of routine 'foo' must be a type object of type 'Mu', not an object instance of type 'Int'. Did you forget a 'multi'?
in sub foo at <tmp> line 1
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
guifa2 Mu is implied though, since it's the root class. You can just use foo(::Type) and foo(:U $type)
Also, since the ::Type is a type capture proper, you can then use it in the signature: 05:36
m: sub foo(::Type, Type:D $a) { say "$a is a defined ", Type }; foo 2, 4; foo 'a', 4 05:38
camelia 4 is a defined (Int)
Type check failed in binding to parameter '$a'; expected Str but got Int (4)
in sub foo at <tmp> line 1
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
guifa2 Demos[m]: ^^ hope that helps. Note that in both cases, you can s/Mu/Foo and require the type to be a subclass of Foo or to be of role Foo. And lastly, when you say foo(::T, T $a, T $b), it's really short hand for foo(::T $, T $a, T $b), which might help make the distinction of what's going on clearer 05:42
Demos[m] hmm I had trouble with method foo(SomeType ::Type --> Type:D) 05:49
Demos[m] return typecheck always failed 05:49
does ::T $ just say that the variable has scalar context?
sorry .... there are a lot of symbols and lots of ways to arrange them 05:50
Demos[m] sent a long message: < matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/downlo...dcAOCEOYkg > 05:51
Demos[m] I wish comma had a "what the heck is this" button :D 05:59

Skarsnik Hello. is there a place to write test for... the Test module? x) 10:07
lizmat in the rakudo repository I guess ? 10:11
I think there are some tests for the Test module there already
Skarsnik hm t/01-sanity/99-test-basic.t look like this is the place x) 10:19
expon i wrote a silly little sequence to make a list of before/after padding, but it doesn't terminate: (0;n), -> [$b,$a] {($b+1;$a-1)} … (n;0) 10:27
it does seem to smartmatch though, so i'm not sure why it's not terminating
lizmat expon: could you make an issue with an example of the code that doesn't do what you want? 10:42
expon lizmat: i can do that later sure, but the code above should be a decent example for any n > 0, as i think it should terminate logically :p 10:43
the raku github issues i assume? been a while
lizmat yes, please 10:44
it will help tremendously if people can just copy/paste to see the (wrong) result and not have to reason about it up front
expon i understand 10:45
lizmat ++expon
chloekek When people put "version": "*" in their META6.json, what does that mean? 10:50
How is it to be compared against other versions?
p6: say '*'.Version <=> '1.2.3'.Version 10:51
camelia Less
chloekek p6: say '*'.Version <=> '0'.Version 10:52
camelia Less
chloekek p6: say '*'.Version «cmp« ('*', '0', '1.2.3')».Version 10:53
camelia (Same Less Less)
chloekek So it seems to be less than all other versions.
* is asciibetically less than 0, so that’s convenient. 10:58
expon lizmat: done, #3612, hope that's appropriate 11:00
i have to run in a few seconds so apologies i haven't done any debugging or written more detail
lizmat expon++ 11:01
stay safe!
expon i just wear my perl6 tshirt and everyone stays away from me ☺
lizmat :-)
andrzejku hello people how raku is doing? 11:30
lizmat andrzejku: pretty good, not bad, I can't complain 11:43
.oO( sorry about the John Prine reference )
andrzejku fine, I plan one day to back to perl6 11:49
lizmat andrzejku: eh, it's called raku now... going back to perl6 is eh... not looking forward 11:52
Success i forget but i thought i saw where you could add custom infixes; in this case it would be equally effective for a builtin 'or' or 'xor' sorry i didn't thoroughly read the dox recently 11:59
maybe im just looking for token thanks yall 12:00
cpan-raku New module released to CPAN! Gnome::Gtk3::Glade (0.8.9.1) by 03MARTIMM 12:07
Skarsnik tricky, how I test if a test fail as a success; lives-ok { is ... } obviously generated a failed test xD 12:25
Success you wot m8
cpan-raku New module released to CPAN! Excel::Text::Template (0.0.1) by 03TBROWDER 13:09
Skarsnik lizmat, Chaning stuff in Test is a bit like NC, since it's probably not part of the spec, you never know how far you want to change stuff. kinda annoying IMO (especially NC) 13:16
chloekek I found that Cro::HTTP has a very large startup time, including the library causes the app to take several seconds to launch. Are there alternative HTTP server libraries? 17:14
[Coke] I'm not aware of any that have similar scope or support 17:35
modules.raku.org/search/?q=http - there is, e.g. HTTP::Server::Tiny 17:36
guifa2 Demos[m]: It does seem that a captured type can't be used for a type check, that feels buggy 17:44
chloekek [Coke]: I wonder how tricky it would be to use a PSGI server with Inline::Perl5. 17:45
Probably breaks horribly with preforking.
guifa2 m: sub foo(::T $bar, --> T) { $bar }; foo 5;
camelia Died with X::TypeCheck::Return
in sub foo at <tmp> line 1
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
guifa2 m: sub foo(::T $bar, --> T) { say "$bar is a {T}"; $bar }; foo 5; 17:46
camelia Use of uninitialized value of type Int in string context.
Methods .^name, .raku, .gist, or .say can be used to stringify it to something meaningful.
5 is a

chloekek [Coke]: I’ll use CGI for now, can swap it out later. :) 17:58
CGI is suuuuuuper easy.
Just make sure you don’t accidentally write to stdout anywhere lmao. Luckily can just my $*OUT := $*ERR;
El_Che it's the startup time important? 18:03
chloekek It’s annoying when developing and changing stuff, having to wait ten seconds before I can test something. 18:04
El_Che for developing, ok
chloekek In production it’s also annoying due to downtime, but this can be fixed by keeping the old version running and switching port numbers in the reverse proxy configuration. 18:05
El_Che container that are only reachable once the health check passes 18:06
that's what we doe with java stuff
El_Che when developing I mostly run the applicable tests, this limits wainiting time (in general, not only raku) 18:09
chloekek Yeah I’m editing mustache templates and css
I should probably set up something for loading them dynamically

cpan-raku New module released to CPAN! Red (0.1.6) by 03FCO 18:34
[Coke] should the *iml file be checked in? 18:36
El_Che no 18:41
(if you're talking about intellij)
El_Che I add it with idea/ to my .gitignore 18:43
[Coke] it's for comma, which I think is based on that. 18:59
Maybe a PR for Raku/doc is in order to remove it. 19:00
El_Che yes, Comma is intellij. It good to have these kind of things in .gitignore with *.sw? for vim 19:02
[Coke] I tend to prefer putting editor specific stuff locally rather than in the repo, but my opinion isn't that strong 19:08
chloekek If you put it in the repo then as time approaches infinity, so will the number of .gitignore entries. 19:51
Demos[m] why do I loose the value of attributes initialized via "new" when I mixin a role? 20:02
chloekek Demos[m]: can you give an example? 20:37
chloekek p6: say 'كرم' 22:51
camelia كرم
chloekek Typing Arabic into the terminal is really weird because the cursor moves LTR whereas the text is rendered RTL 22:52
And editing text in the middle is basically unusable, there are probably terminals out there that do it better though 22:54
