[Coke] modules.raku.org says "Help language development. Donate to The Perl Foundation" 13:12
tellable6 2022-11-07T23:20:06Z #raku <sena_kun> [Coke] I certainly did, I believe.
sena_kun [Coke], I wonder if there are any objections of replacing it with raku.land. 13:13
[Coke] I have no issue with using one over the other (I ended up at modules because I googled something) 13:18
if the bug fix is "shut down that site and push people to the other one", I'm ok with that.
[Coke] opens a very small PR for Text::Markdown 13:19
sena_kun: one of those changes is to fix the markdown for your github id.
sena_kun [Coke], I don't see the PR? 13:22

avuserow Speaking of modules, how often does zef update cpan modules? I uploaded Aduio::TagLib a few days ago and zef only sees 0.0.2. modules.raku.org says I have 0.0.3 14:41
I know fez is the new preferred place, but is cpan this deprecated now? 14:42
japhb lizmat: What is the default file selection in rak? rak --rak only shows me it's a Callable, and a general search missed things I expected to see. (In particular, it missed files with the 'js' extension that were outside of node_modules or any other such black holes.) 14:44
Nemokosch avuserow: seems to me that it's all up to REA 14:57
Nemokosch github.com/Raku/REA/tree/main/arch...io::TagLib 15:02
[Coke] anyone know about circleci enough to fix doc's icon in the readme? github.com/Raku/doc 15:21
ugexe avuserow: its in the old cpan index (which can be reenabled with --cpan argument), but its not showing up by default because its missing in the indexer that replaced it (REA) github.com/Raku/REA/tree/main/meta...io::TagLib 16:10
--cpan will give it access to raw.githubusercontent.com/ugexe/Pe.../cpan.json (which might even be what modules.raku.org uses) 16:11
lizmat japhb: the default selection is "all known extensions". .js isn't one them atm 16:25
I guess I'll add a #js group with .js any other extensions I should add with that?
.css maybe ? as part of the #html group ? 16:26
tonyo is there already a cli for reading raku docs? 16:44
eg rdoc info Test
lizmat avuserow: sorry, the REA indexer was on the blink: it's in the REA now 16:46
lizmat zef update should make it visible 16:46
avuserow: please consider moving to the zef ecosystem :-) 16:47
linkable6 Link: docs.raku.org/language/modules 16:48
japhb lizmat: .ts for TypeScript also? 17:07
lizmat ack
will be in the next release 17:08
probably later today
tonyo .ts for typescript and if you're trying to support stuff like react then .tsx
avuserow I can definitely move my modules to zef.
japhb lizmat: Might make a separate #css group, because .css,.scss,.sass, etc.
avuserow Is the zef ecosystem code available anywhere, out of curiosity? 17:09
japhb (That's from old memory, haven't written non-pure-CSS in a while.)
tonyo avuserow: the client is, the server isn't (it's all in aws lambdas) 17:12
lizmat japhb: but you wouldn't want to search in .scss or .sass ? 17:13
Nemokosch imgflip.com/i/704v56 17:15
japhb The other extensions are pre-expansion, for people using CSS-derived "terse" stylesheet languages. So they would be considered "source" for people who are using them. 17:16
avuserow AWS egress can get pricey. Though I guess that's a good problem to have because it means we're popular :)
japhb (But check those extensions before you set them in stone; there are far too many file extensions for me to keep them all straight in my head, and I don't feel super confident about those. One of the frontend folks can probably rattle them off easily though.) 17:17
Nemokosch fwiw, I'd like to see something that only compares text files (regardless extension), like grep by default
avuserow I'll migrate my modules this weekend, thanks everyone for the continued ecosystem improvements. it's a lot better than the old github ecosystem repo :)
tonyo avuserow: i'm feeling it, right now the costs are still low enough but i'm linode offers something similar soon 17:18
avuserow tonyo, do you need help with this, either in ideas, money, or code? 17:19
need or want :)
tonyo not at the moment but i'll put your name in my hat for when that time comes, i do anticipate needing some code help in the future. money never hurts, the whole eco is run on about $20 a mo. a couple of people here (who i'm unsure want to be named) do support in that way 17:21
ope, $40, not $20 17:22
avuserow If it's easy for you to accept github sponsorships, I would add yours 17:25
but yes, ping me if you think of anything. I may not have bandwidth due to other things but I'll see what I can do
tonyo much appreciated 17:29
lizmat Nemokosch: added to my todo 17:38
Xliff \o 19:07
Has indexed format parameters been implemented in sprintf, yet? 19:08
tonyo m: say sprintf('%d %[1]d', 1) 19:13
camelia Directive d %[1]d is not valid in sprintf format '%d %[1]d'
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
lizmat Xliff: it is in the new printf implementation in RakuAST if I remember correctly 19:33

[Coke] what was the new golf site that just added raku? 22:29
El_Che oh yes, exercism has Raku: exercism.org/tracks/raku 22:37
weekly: oh yes, exercism has Raku: exercism.org/tracks/raku
notable6 El_Che, Noted! (weekly)
Nemokosch exercism has had Raku for quite some time 22:41
I think it even made it to weeklies once or twice 22:42
El_Che just to be sure :) 22:43
(not that I want to test it, the teaching method does not agree with me :) )
Nemokosch [Coke]: Nahita had an answer to that question week.golf/
but the non-functioning bridge swallowed it
El_Che: same with me. I'm happy if anybody finds it useful; I personally found the description and evaluation of tasks a bit imbalanced 22:45
