05:49:53FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> Is it normal I cannot do that? https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1092687463526436895/image.png
05:51:42FromDiscord<huantian> `var renderTextures: array[2, RenderTexture]`
05:52:07FromDiscord<huantian> the array type doesn't act as a constructor
05:52:22FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> Oh alright, it works now↵Thanks
06:07:29FromDiscord<sOkam!> how do you correctly convert an `array[N, char]` to a nim string?↵right now with `std/strbasics add` it adds even the ending set of million `\x00` characters 😔↵do I just cast to cstring, or is there some other way?
06:07:52FromDiscord<sOkam!> i tried searching the chat, but only that option showed up, and its not behaving well
06:08:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You cannot without allocating
06:08:55FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `$cast[cstring](myArr[0])`
06:08:55FromDiscord<sOkam!> i dont mind allocating it. i just want it to convert it correctly
06:09:09FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The above only works if it's `\0` terminated
06:09:13FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If it's not use use strbasics
06:09:13FromDiscord<sOkam!> kk ill try that
06:11:48FromDiscord<sOkam!> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4sC9
06:12:27FromDiscord<sOkam!> i guess it means they are not null terminated? 🤔
06:12:31FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> you need to `rfind`
06:13:43FromDiscord<sOkam!> i don't quite follow why
06:14:42FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> you find a `\0` in the array
06:15:34FromDiscord<sOkam!> i don't have a string, though. rfind seems to search in strings
06:16:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> rfind works on arrays
06:16:23FromDiscord<sOkam!> what module is it in?
06:16:29FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> system
06:16:45FromDiscord<sOkam!> its not showing up in the manual search 😔
06:16:46FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Wait it's not
06:16:49FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> lol
06:17:46*nanxiao quit (Quit: Client closed)
06:18:17FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I guess just find one
06:18:47FromDiscord<sOkam!> wdym?

09:28:42PMunchHmm I have an application which displays some HTML. Now I've given the users the ability to add their own HTML templates the content will be put into. But I still want to be able to add some scripts, styles, fonts, etc.
09:29:47PMunchI'd love to give the user the ability to supply a full HTML document, or just what goes into the body part, and then stitch it together with my script and style tags
09:30:02PMunchI guess there aren't any HTML merging libraries out there by chance?

11:20:21PMunchIndeed
11:20:30PMunchBetter yet some QC on the nimsuggest project :P
11:33:55FromDiscord<Yardanico> In reply to @firq "To answer my own": only 2.x
11:34:03FromDiscord<Yardanico> it wasn't backported it seems

12:30:03FromDiscord<Yardanico> you can find those projects on github
12:30:19FromDiscord<Yardanico> although they're kind of outdated by using --os:standalone with --gc:none while now you can use --os:any + mm:arc

15:59:47FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> In reply to @System64 "if((str.len and 1).bool) better": zero isn’t falsy in Nim so `str.len and 1` is problematic
16:00:24FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> (edit) "is problematic" => "won’t work like you want"
16:01:02FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> actually maybe converters kick in, should have. Hacked before replying…
16:01:16FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> (edit) "have. Hacked" => "have checked"
16:08:03FromDiscord<Rika> In reply to @michaelb.eth "zero isn’t falsy in": str.len and 1 is not what you think it is
16:08:22FromDiscord<Rika> its a bitwise and
16:08:41FromDiscord<Rika> nim bitwise ops share the same operator keyword as boolean ops
16:08:44FromDiscord<Rika> overloaded by type
16:08:45FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> yep, should have had coffee first 😄
16:09:04FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> I was just about to retract
16:11:10FromDiscord<Rika> haha
16:11:16FromDiscord<Rika> too quick for you
16:11:39FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> I tend to use bitops, though it’s a bit annoying how prior to 1.6 (I think, or maybe 1.4) bitand and bitor, et al. are not variadic
16:18:33FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> In reply to @sOkam! "how do you correctly": nim-stew’s `string.fromBytes` in its `byteutils` may be of help
16:18:44FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> (edit) "In reply to @sOkam! "how do you correctly": nim-stew’s `string.fromBytes` in its `byteutils` ... may" added "module"
16:22:39FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @michaelb.eth "zero isn’t falsy in": Why not treating zero and nil as falsy?
16:24:41FromDiscord<Rika> In reply to @System64 "Why not treating zero": nim has no concept of truthiness
16:24:54FromDiscord<Rika> if its not a boolean, it isnt treated as one
16:25:16FromDiscord<Rika> but technically nim DOES has some sense of truthiness actually
16:25:37FromDiscord<Rika> integers that are 0, when converted to bool explicitly, will be false
16:25:43FromDiscord<Rika> numbers rather

20:58:01qpls1908What is the type of {1: "foo"}?

20:58:16qpls1908I am trying to learn nim, and I see things like {1: "foo"}.newTable
20:58:28qpls1908which seems odd, since I would think {} is already a dict of some sort
20:58:34qpls1908but it seems to be an array of tuples
20:59:03qpls1908though I can't figure out where the syntax is documented
21:01:52FromDiscord<Marcus> Anyone have a Github actions setup for building nim apps for arm as well as x86?
21:20:29FromDiscord<demotomohiro> @qpls1908 It is documented in https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#statements-and-expressions-table-constructor↵and↵https://nim-lang.org/docs/tables.html#newTable%2CopenArray%5B%5D
21:26:25FromDiscord<huantian> In reply to @Marcus "Anyone have a Github": no examples but you'd want to look at using <https://nim-lang.org/docs/nimc.html#crossminuscompilation> to point to the gcc-arm-none-eabi` package which i think ubuntu has
21:26:28FromDiscord<huantian> (edit) "gcc-arm-none-eabi`" => "`gcc-arm-none-eabi`"
21:33:02FromDiscord<hellerbarde> But the documentation says that this returns a result. I am looking for the proc that will replace the process, like execv, execve, etc do.↵(@Nerve)
21:35:36FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You can always import execv and friends, but execCmdEx is blocking so for most intents it's the same
21:36:57FromDiscord<hellerbarde> Afaik it will create another level in the process hierarchy which is what i am looking to avoid.↵I will look into importing execv then. Thanks 👍
21:38:28FromDiscord<demotomohiro> @hellerbarde As far as I know, there is no proc that will replace the process in stdlib.↵So you would need to use procs in posix module.
21:39:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Matrix reactions do not propagate to discord and vice versa

23:48:02FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Ayylmao use `emit` perhaps
23:48:44FromDiscord<Ayy Lmao> In reply to @Elegantbeef "<@109181558149120000>\: no": The emit pragma works but how do I use it from the module's scope so that the user of the module doesn't have to worry about it?
23:49:08FromDiscord<Ayy Lmao> In order for it to work you have to emit the include header code in the user code

23:51:25FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `allocCstringArray`
23:51:38FromDiscord<sOkam!> there is no way around allocating i assume?
23:51:56FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Put the emit at the top level of your module?↵(@Ayy Lmao)
23:52:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Correct a cstring array is a nil terminated cstring collection
23:52:14FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> So there is no way of doing it without allocating
23:52:48FromDiscord<Ayy Lmao> In reply to @Elegantbeef "Put the emit at": It doesn't end up emitting it in the user code if I do that.
23:53:09FromDiscord<Ayy Lmao> And then it says I have undefined things
23:53:32FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Could you compile the C files instead?
23:53:48FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Alternatively you could use a `include` as ugly as it is
23:54:44FromDiscord<Ayy Lmao> Yeah I had it working on windows without using the header files but I couldn't get it to work on webassembly properly for some reason. I suspect maybe it had to do with a bunch of platform specific code in the header files.
23:56:26FromDiscord<Ayy Lmao> I tried making my own c header file with the includes in the right order but that doesn't seem to work either
23:58:34FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> What files are you including?
