AncientWizard I've read the IO::Pipe page online I'm looking for the deeper suff that page left out. The page does not explain how to create a working pipe without using Proc::Async first 00:01

guifa .tell AncientWizard You can create a pipe manually by using IO::Pipe.new: :$on-read, :$on-write, :$on-close 00:08

samebchase- thank you moon-child! let me try that out
moon-child (or just use get and say, but using $*IN and $*OUT make it easier for you to change in/out files according to params later on) 08:46

lizmat also note that using "lines" will automatically read from any number of files that you specify on the command line
raku foo.raku bar baz 09:30
will produce lines first from "bar", then from :baz"
parv lizmat, is there special syntax/idiom to get all the lines in a scalar variable? 09:31
lizmat slurp 09:32
parv ah. thanks lizmat.

parv "words" is interesting to know in its own right. 09:34

samebchase- thank you for the tip lizmat 10:21
MasterDuke doesn't zef have two places where it gets the list of modules from? github.com/Raku/ecosystem/blob/master/META.list and somewhere else? 10:36
lizmat I think fez's list ? 10:40
dakkar MasterDuke: run `zef --verbose update` to see them all
MasterDuke thanks 10:41
dakkar also, `zef --help` tells you where its config file is, in case you want to change those URLs 10:43

Altreus Can you tap an array? And if not, how easy would it be to have «has @.messages but Tappable» or ... however that's done 13:14
So that you get a supply whenever it's appended to
It's a queue really
ugexe MasterDuke: sure they are 13:17

Altreus yayaya
can I make it a live supply so I don't hear about existing values? :D
ugexe that isn't going to catch when you append things to the array is it?

ugexe yeah i wouldnt think so 13:19
MasterDuke oh, it's in *their* meta6, i was just looking at the values in the list
lizmat m: my @a = ^10; dd @a.Channel # meh 13:20
camelia No such method 'Channel' for invocant of type 'Array'
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
Altreus Could fairly easily write a subclass of Array, right? has Queue @.messages;
.=new 13:21
lizmat Well, what you'd want is a Channel, no ?
Altreus I defer to your expertise in that
not sure, because I also want it to act like an array 13:22
I could of course double up and have a supply that is fed when I add to the array
I could also rename @.messages so the supply itself held that spot 13:23
lizmat m: my $c := Channel.new; $c.send(42); react whenever $c { .say } 13:24

guifa ha
17:23 b2gills joined
guifa This is for a module, so having to balance clarity, distinctiveness and brevity 17:23
Altreus naming things is the main challenge of programming 17:24
guifa especially when one of the words is “localization” and you have an insane hatred of “l10n” 17:25
17:25 shlomif joined 17:26 rindolf left
codesections guifa: agreed re: the difficulty. I have a cluster of related custom properties that I'm currently "namespacing" with the letter é 17:26

17:27 shlomif is now known as rindolf
guifa casts a butterfly summon spell to attack lizmat 17:27
you know Oxford actually prefers the z in those words haha
lizmat oops :-) 17:28
guifa in my case, I have names that would definitely be potentially used by other modules
lizmat that would only be an issue when used in the same scope ? 17:29
guifa Yeah — unfortunately I could see them possibly being used in the same scope too
I did one interesting solution with LanguageTag
use Intl::LanguageTag actually gives you Intl::LanguageTag::BCP47, but aliased to the former 17:30
so maybe I’ll do a similar one here, to give a longer / shorter import option based on what users want. Since it’s only a few subs, it’s minimal maintenance once made
Because gist.github.com/alabamenhu/a84cec3...b26fc74907 <— that is very wordy :-( 17:31
lizmat well, properly manipulating the EXPORT hash, would be the only thing to do then ?
Altreus Oxford can swivel
They're the same people who accept "aluminum" in scientific papers 17:32
Now if we're fixing *all* of the letters then by all means, gimme that z
17:33 |oLa| joined 17:38 |oLa| left 17:39 albino_ joined
guifa lizmat: actually yeah I guess I could just use a :long option. When I did LanguageTag, the issue was I had always used Intl::LanguageTag, but with the rewrite, that really just became a namepsace for different language tag types, so for backwards compatibility (and also a not-so-subtle hint that one is the preferred) I did the weird passthrough export 17:39
17:40 sena_kun left 17:41 sena_kun joined
codesections What's the syntax for calling a method via a Str, again? Not a tool I reach for very often, and I'm not seeing it right off in the docs 17:42
guifa .”$foo”
err
lizmat .:$foo"() 17:43
guifa .”$foo”() <— parentheses obligatory
lizmat yup
guifa one of my favorites
codesections ty. I was missing the parens
guifa in one of my modules where I do both attribute and hash access I have method AT-KEY($key) { self.”$key”() } 17:45
works like a charm
codesections ha
lizmat indeed... and if a key is not supported, that will throw :-) 17:47
much better than the other way around :-) 17:48
guifa I had it the other way around ( method FALLBACK ($method) { self.Hash::AT-KEY($method) }  ) originally 17:49
the undefined keys weren’t terrible for what I was doing, but the speed was the difference
attribute access > hash access for speed
codesections what are your/everyone's feelings about FALLBACK in general?
guifa codesections: did you see my $file.greatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgrandparent thing? 17:50
codesections I've been tempted, but have mostly stayed away
... that sounds familiar, but I'm not positive
guifa www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl6...g9858.html 17:51
codesections ha 17:54
18:01 shlomif joined, rindolf left
guifa Though that shows a really good use for fallback: you can actually respond to the text of the method called. Any (or Mu?) uses this try to provide a recommend to you if you misspelled it 18:02
codesections yeah. I guess I'm concerned that I lose the _existing_ error messages, though, which tend to be pretty good 18:07
guifa you can always callsame if you can determine you don’t have a better error message 18:08
codesections you can? I guess I thought you were at the bottom of the call chain at that point 18:09
guifa FALLBACK can be multi’d :-)
18:09 shlomif is now known as rindolf
codesections oh, so you'd be falling back to other FALLBACKs, I get it 18:10
guifa but the error messages might be usefully tailored in some cases. For instance on CLDR trying to access an unknown attribute will display the available ones instead (tend to be no more than a dozen or so)
codesections yeah, that seems like a good use of fallback. The _tempting_ uses are more like the one you mentioned earlier, where I want to support calling something arbitrary (like your keys) 18:12
guifa I think the best question to ask yourself before using FALLBACK is “is there another way? And is it better?”
the greatgreatgrandparent one can’t really be done another way. So FALLBACK makes sense. Mimicking Javascript Objects (~~  Raku Hash) is another good use. Better error message is one. And … I can’t think of any off the top of my head ha 18:13
actually, if hypothetically 0x syntax didn’t exist, I guess you could do x.ff where class x { method FALLBACK ($n) { $n.base(16) } } 18:15
guifa is afk for a bit 18:16
