04:38:13arfyhi. Just wanted to say, a few days on, enjoying nim a lot. I've been able to rewrite a couple of small utilites I wrote in python quite easily. :)
04:39:24FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> awesome =)
04:39:43FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Nice any issues you run into?
04:39:52arfyyeah. it's a nice language so far.
04:40:37arfyno, although i was very amused by the deduplicate function from sequtils. deduplicate?
04:43:22arfyalso, under windows, is it possible to use nim with the latest VC++ tools?
04:44:10FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I do not know, i'm not a windows user
04:45:21arfyfair. if I could, I'd do everything on my mac machine.
04:46:12FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> i use windows but i don't use vc++
04:46:18FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> using mingw is easy
04:46:55arfyyeah. mingw works fine for me, I was just curious
04:47:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The forum/github issues might be of help if you want to investigate
04:47:26FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> but i think vc++ is supported
04:49:43FromDiscord<demotomohiro> Nim supports vc++ but it seems not much tested with it.
04:51:03FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> does vc include a c compiler or only c++?
04:51:52FromDiscord<demotomohiro> Add --cc:vcc option if you try vc++ backend.
04:53:00FromDiscord<demotomohiro> cl.exe /? says "Microsoft(R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.00.24210 for x86"
05:04:21FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> I use `--cc:vcc` all the time when building on windows

07:34:14FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> is there none in nim?
07:34:43FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That's the exact amount
07:34:43FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> No there is no `none`
07:35:01FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you want an optional type look at `std/options`

07:40:50FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> i wrote this in python
07:41:08FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> but i cant figure out to convert it in nim
07:41:38FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> this is example from youtube
07:41:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You dont need to handle that if statement
07:42:23FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Nim is statically typed it'll always be a value
07:42:44FromDiscord<cabboose> What he said
07:42:47*max22- joined #nim
07:43:06FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> i am trying to convert python algorithm to nim
07:43:12FromDiscord<cabboose> Also there are nim tutorials on the youtubes
07:43:33FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> very less tutorial
07:43:54FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> So convert the algorithim the `verify` isnt needed it's just `if x in yourSeq.low .. yourSeq.high`
07:44:35FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> ohh
07:45:09FromDiscord<enthus1ast> you could either return -1 if not found, or option[int]
07:50:47FromDiscord<enthus1ast> i think in your case (when list is a seq) -1 is more convenient
07:50:49FromDiscord<enthus1ast> https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3yDD
07:50:49FromDiscord<enthus1ast> but you could also go with option as i said, then you would return some[T] or none
07:51:14FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/886519302449160222/20210912_133614.jpg

07:53:08FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> what is the difference between func and proc
07:53:25FromDiscord<enthus1ast> func check for side effects, and errors if one is detected
07:53:39FromDiscord<enthus1ast> so no prints, no global var access etc

08:01:26FromDiscord<enthus1ast> the nim chats are bridged between discord \<-\@Saurav Niroula)
08:02:15FromDiscord<enthus1ast> to form a bigger comunity, and the bridges are implemented sometimes with bot accounts
08:02:26FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> ohh

08:06:19FromDiscord<enthus1ast> but everyone should of course switch to matrix, since its open source (in contrast to discord) and provides strong encryption (not on this channel, though), and does not have a central server infrastructure but is federated ;)
08:06:19FromDiscord<Saurav Niroula> why this code prints num not found
08:08:27FromDiscord<enthus1ast> int is not a natural
08:08:44FromDiscord<enthus1ast> better check for \> -1
08:09:13FromDiscord<enthus1ast> another thing, better not name a variable result
08:09:49FromDiscord<enthus1ast> because result is automatically available in a a proc and is of the type of the return code

11:19:02FromDiscord<tandy> i guess i could just write this in python
11:21:28arkanoidI've never used nim for frontent javascript, but I'm reading how elm works as I don't like javascript and I like the proposed model/view/update pattern. Do you know if there's anything similar for nim? I mean if there are frameworks for javascript frontend for nim
11:25:10FromDiscord<Yardanico> https://github.com/karaxnim/karax is exactly that
11:25:12nrds<R2D299> itHub: 7"Karax. Single page applications for Nim."

12:31:37FromDiscord<Yardanico> there's no "the way to go", there are multiple ORMs available for Nim :)
12:31:41FromDiscord<Yardanico> no one forces you to a specific combination
12:32:43FromDiscord<Yardanico> I personally like ormin too, but there's for example https://github.com/moigagoo/norm
12:32:46nrds<R2D299> itHub: 7"A Nim ORM"
12:33:09arkanoidyeah but I'm not into evolution of nim tools for the web, karax, ormin, jester, norm, fidget, basolato, prologue. I'm getting lost
12:34:32*pro joined #nim
12:34:34arkanoidI'm aiming to a solution that is more than a poc, and has already been bent to production use. I know just karax and ormin due to nim forum
12:41:57FromDiscord<Rika> Most of what you said save for Basolato have been used in production I believe?
12:43:00FromDiscord<gogolxdong (liuxiaodong)> Nim should replace nodejs
12:43:04FromDiscord<gogolxdong (liuxiaodong)> most DeFi application is written in React + nodejs
12:43:17arkanoidis there a blog post comparing the different solutions and highlighting the pro/cons and features? I mean, karax seems for frontend only
12:43:29arkanoidbut unsure
12:47:17*jjido quit (Quit: My MacBook Air has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…)
12:48:27arkanoidthere must be a "go well together" path. I mean, frontent + backend + orm technologies generally moves as a group, but what is the currente prefence for nim? Maybe Karax + Jester + ormin?
12:56:57FromDiscord<auxym> I do believe the nim forum runs on karax+jester, not sure for ORM though.
12:57:08FromDiscord<Yardanico> In reply to @auxym "I do believe the": it doesn't use an ORM
12:57:30arkanoidyeah ORM is not always part of the game
12:58:03FromDiscord<Yardanico> you can check the source, e.g. https://github.com/nim-lang/nimforum/blob/master/src/forum.nim#L662
13:00:02arkanoidin my opinion, the nim forum way is bad for web development, as it's SEO nightmare: white page without js
13:02:49arkanoidalso reason why you're not finding any answer about nim programming with google on nim forum but just stackoverflow
13:02:56FromDiscord<Yardanico> no, not really
13:03:01FromDiscord<Yardanico> google indexes nim forum just fine
13:03:09FromDiscord<Yardanico> but yes, I agree with your about JS-only :)
13:03:33FromDiscord<Yardanico> in fact I've been running a read-only static html nimforum viewer for a while before the domain expired, maybe I should enable it again
13:03:40arkanoidany SEO tecnique would be obliterated by this false start
13:04:04FromDiscord<Yardanico> first response from nim forum https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/886598030491541514/unknown.png
13:04:34arkanoidwhy my google is not returning that answer?
13:05:07FromDiscord<Yardanico> because it doesn't know that you use nim a lot :P
13:06:14arkanoidyeah, I kind of guy that uses google via tor browser without logging in
13:06:19FromDiscord<Yardanico> and yeah, nimforum was made to showcase how you can write apps with karax, but it was made before karax had server-side rendering
13:06:35FromDiscord<Yardanico> also IIRC even now there's no way to cleanly mix statically rendered and dynamic content in karax
13:07:17arkanoidonly way is to help google digest your js https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/javascript/javascript-seo-basics

13:30:01arkanoidI've just created my first barebone karax app. Karun produced "<script type="text/javascript" src="/app.js"></script>" but I had to fix it manually to "<script type="text/javascript" src="app.js"></script>" to make it work
13:33:56FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> Sounds like you did something incorrectly then
13:34:04FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> I haven't used Karax in years but I never had to do that
13:34:57FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> also not everyone cares about SEO
13:35:10arkanoidsure for last line
13:35:17FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> like, I'm probably guessing most of Nim's community doesn't care about it
13:35:26arkanoidfor first line, I don't know how. it's just barebone
13:35:35FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> gotcha
13:36:10arkanoidthis is my karax app: https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3yFa
13:36:16FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> yeah - I don't really do web dev with Nim. I already have to do it for work, but... IMO it doesn't really matter what frontend technology or framework or library you use, they're all pretty terrible
13:36:20arkanoidI'm doing "karun src/webtest.nim"
13:36:25FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> Karax is at least somewhat lightweight in comparison to a lot of others
13:37:04FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> all karun does is generate HTML boilerplate coded
13:37:06FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> (edit) "coded" => "code apparently"
13:37:14FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> like, you don't even need it really - it's simply there for convenience
13:37:28FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> You just need to compile your Nim to JS and then have an HTML load the JS file via a script tag
13:37:58FromDiscord<Gumber aka Zachary Carter> it's just JS and HTML at the end of the day...
13:38:35arkanoidI'm not a web developer, I've successfully skipped the whole web era as I consider it horror. I've always lived on backend/desktop/console/microcontroller. Occasionally I still want to "know" how to bake basic web apps. I used to play with python + vue, but it's time to replace my last-favorite-thing with something I like, that's nim
13:39:14FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> moving from python+vue to jester+karax was pretty easy for me
13:39:33FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> though they don't seem as well used
13:40:41arkanoidimpbox, I hope so. I don't require anything complicated, just a way to get shit done, and static typing is something I now want at same level of eating and sleeping
13:46:13NimEventerNew Nimble package! tic80 - TIC-80 bindings, see https://github.com/thisago/tic80
13:46:16nrds<R2D299> itHub: 7"Nim TIC-80 bindings"
13:46:33FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> ooh
13:47:03arkanoidwow?
13:47:43FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> didn't realise tic-80 could do native code
13:47:57FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> sounds rad
13:49:23FromDiscord<Yardanico> In reply to @impbox "didn't realise tic-80 could": it's not native :P
13:49:48FromDiscord<Yardanico> this binding uses the JS backend
13:49:53FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> oh i see
13:51:08FromDiscord<Yardanico> tic 80 supports 4 languages officially - " 64KB of Lua or Moonscript or JavaScript or Wren or Fennel"
13:51:14FromDiscord<Yardanico> moonscript and fennel also compile to Lua
13:51:53arkanoidside question: in vscode F6 runs "nim c ...", how to make it run nimble build/run instead?
13:52:58FromDiscord<Yardanico> I don't think you can change the command that's being run when pressing F6
13:53:12FromDiscord<Yardanico> but you can add specific vscode tasks for Ctrl+F5 (run without debugging) which is a vscode keybind
13:53:29FromDiscord<fenrave> if you mean with coderunner, you can edit the json file for it to change the command that it runs
13:53:38FromDiscord<Yardanico> In reply to @fenrave "if you mean with": nah, he's talking about the nim extension
13:54:01FromDiscord<Yardanico> both Nim extensions (the pragmagic and saem) have F6 hotkey to run "nim c /path/to/currentFile.nim"
13:54:42FromDiscord<fenrave> did not know that
13:55:59arkanoidI'm using the saem one. It has a "build command" option that defaults to "c", but replecing it with "nimble build" results in it trying to run "nim nimble build ..."
13:56:21FromDiscord<Yardanico> ah maybe you can change, lemme check the config
13:56:52FromDiscord<Yardanico> eh, seems like you can't :)
13:57:04FromDiscord<Yardanico> https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim/blob/main/src/nimvscode.nim#L235 it's hardcoded here
13:57:14FromDiscord<Yardanico> (nim saem extension inherited most behaviour from the pragmagic extension)
13:59:48FromDiscord<Yardanico> you can make a PR adding a config variable for that since this extension is written in Nim (and compiled via JS backend)
14:03:46arkanoidyeah! I've opened an issue to talk about this
14:03:48arkanoidthanks
14:06:02arkanoidnot the smoothest karax intro experience: this compiles to js but triggers assertionDefect in js https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3yFj
14:06:17FromDiscord<Yardanico> why are you including stdlib modules?
14:06:20FromDiscord<Yardanico> you should import them
14:06:48arkanoidI was following this tutorial: https://moigagoo.svbtle.com/exploring-karax
14:07:04arkanoidold, yes, but he is using sugar
14:07:18FromDiscord<Yardanico> but he is importing sugar :)
14:07:31FromDiscord<Yardanico> not sure about the issue itself though
14:07:45FromDiscord<Yardanico> we have a #webdev on discord, I think it's bridged to matrix as well
14:07:49FromDiscord<Yardanico> it's better to ask about karax there
14:07:55arkanoidis there a difference between "import sugar" and "import std/sugar"?
14:08:13FromDiscord<Yardanico> yes
14:08:33FromDiscord<Yardanico> if you have a file named "sugar.nim" in the same folder as the main file, then "import sugar" will import that local file instead of stdlib
14:08:49arkanoidsure, but I have just "webtest.nim" in my src
14:08:53FromDiscord<Yardanico> "std" is the stdlib module prefix, and all new modules since 0.20.0 (or near that) are created in std namespace specifically
14:09:11FromDiscord<Yardanico> so it's better to just always use std prefix when importing stdlib modules
14:09:25FromDiscord<Yardanico> You can of course import multiple modules as easily - `import std/[strutils, strscans, httpclient]`
14:09:28arkanoidyeahm that's why I'm using std/[]

16:41:31FromDiscord<leorize> jsffi is mainly for untyped ffi

16:46:14arkanoidI'm doing "var L {.importc, nodecl.}: JsObject" and it is working
16:47:07FromDiscord<leorize> yea, just use it as a global and map have your wrappers access it

16:57:53FromDiscord<hotdog> In reply to @leth "<@472459996068839424>: but say i": You can probably ‘cast[proc()](jsobj)()’ or similar
16:58:07arkanoidI seoh, there's also imporjs
16:59:13FromDiscord<hotdog> In reply to @arkanoid "I seoh, there's also": IIRC importjs and importcpp function the same
17:04:58lethhotdog: Can't find a way to cast it.
17:15:15arkanoidI'm really missing the point on how to map a JsObject to a nim type properly
17:16:35arkanoidI see that jsffi module has the "toJs", "to", newJsAssoc procs/macros that may be relevant to the solution of the problem, but I cannot find a proper example on how I'm supposed to use them
17:18:41arkanoidalso what is this importjs syntax that contains hash char? Where is it documented? proc isUndefined*[T](x: T): bool {.noSideEffect, importjs: "(# === undefined)".}
17:19:07FromDiscord<Yardanico> importjs https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#implementation-specific-pragmas-importjs-pragma
17:19:08FromDiscord<Yardanico> https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#implementation-specific-pragmas-importcpp-pragma
17:19:20FromDiscord<Yardanico> importjs is a different name for importcpp which has some syntax for stuff
17:20:36arkanoidah, ok, thanks. I've always working with C ffi and never with C++, gonna read it
17:22:44arkanoidwonder if the importcpp "::" namespace indicator works for importjs too, where I have a whole API under L. name (see https://leafletjs.com/examples/quick-start/)
17:25:27FromDiscord<hotdog> In reply to @leth "<@472459996068839424>: Can't find a": What did you try?
17:28:12lethhotdog: just solved it: with jsffi's to
17:28:55FromDiscord<hotdog> In reply to @leth "<@472459996068839424>: just solved it:": Good job
17:29:25lethto(jsobject-to-be-called, proc(args): JSObject)
17:29:40lethoh and call that.
17:30:09lethto(jsobject-to-be-called, proc(args): JSObject)(args)
17:32:45lethhotdog: thank you, and thanks for your time and help.

19:45:52FromDiscord<Yardanico> yes
19:46:34FromDiscord<Yardanico> you can use `walkDir` at compile-time
19:46:36FromDiscord<Yardanico> from os
19:48:23FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I am now yardanico, now i get to try to figure out why the cgen is dumb
19:48:43FromDiscord<Yardanico> ecksdee
19:48:50FromDiscord<Yardanico> also I misread "I am now yardanico"
19:49:00FromDiscord<Yardanico> like "why does he think he's me now"
19:49:20FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Well i mean that's how it's written commas stop accidental name reassignment 😛
19:50:50FromDiscord<brainproxy> In reply to @Yardanico "you can use `walkDir`": I'm not sure how to use walkDir to build up a `const`
19:51:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Sadly it's semantically fine i think, so that's fun
19:51:09FromDiscord<brainproxy> do I need to do it inside a macro?
19:51:12FromDiscord<Yardanico> no?
19:51:16FromDiscord<Yardanico> you can execute code at compile-time
19:51:46FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Isnt walkdir an importC so you cannot use it you need to use the nimscript walkfiles or w/e
19:52:02FromDiscord<Yardanico> you can use walkDir
19:52:56FromDiscord<Yardanico> lemme show an example
19:53:28FromDiscord<brainproxy> I understand I can run code at compile time, and thanks for the tip re: walkDir, I'm just not sure how to arrange it so I end up with a `const myArray`
19:56:08FromDiscord<Yardanico> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3yH8
19:56:12FromDiscord<Yardanico> basically create a compile-time seq and create an array out of it
19:57:00FromDiscord<Yardanico> or you can just keep it as a const seq if you want, then you won't need this `block` at all
19:57:23FromDiscord<Yardanico> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3yH9
19:57:34FromDiscord<brainproxy> cool, thanks!

19:59:51FromDiscord<Yardanico> @ElegantBeef honestly I'm not sure how it works
20:00:10FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> In regards to?
20:00:23FromDiscord<Yardanico> walkDir
20:00:40FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Ah
20:01:32FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I think there is probably a vmops for that function somewhere
20:02:16FromDiscord<Yardanico> there's only this https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/blob/devel/compiler/vmops.nim#L227
20:02:29FromDiscord<Yardanico> but it's staticWalkDir and not walkDir

20:46:21FromDiscord<Hamid Bluri> when a user install it vie nimble
20:47:55FromDiscord<Hamid Bluri> he can run it by typing the my library name
20:48:10FromDiscord<Hamid Bluri> something like `inim` package

21:43:32arkanoiddo you know how to get a string representation of a JsObject?
21:45:36FromDiscord<konsumlamm> `$`?
21:48:27arkanoidno, getting js errors with that and repr
21:49:18arkanoidthe only way I'm able to get something out of a JsObject is to create a ref object type with known field and use myJsObject.to(FooType).repr
21:50:02arkanoidfor example echo (clickEvent.JsObject).latlng.to(LatLng).repr
21:51:02arkanoidthe '$' function does not exist for JsObject
21:52:50arkanoidwell, obviously also "echo (clickEvent.JsObject).latlng.to(LatLng)[]" works
21:53:13arkanoidbut really it should be able to print someting with just "echo clickEvent"
21:54:02arkanoidif you search for '$' in this page, you get zero procs https://nim-lang.org/docs/jsffi.html
21:58:47FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> cant you make a `$` proc that iterates the `pairs` echoing out `a: $y`?
21:58:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Only issue is if you have recursive types
22:01:12arkanoidyes but why not include it in jsffi, there must be a traphole somewhere
22:02:44FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Well if you have recursive types you'll have an issue
22:03:23FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If a -\> b -\> a you'll hit an endless loop of writing to the string

22:08:53FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I dont know if there is a way to get a unique id for a js object to stop that either
22:11:23arkanoidI've just written my first toy js ffi interface to a lib. It works nicely but I'd like a review from a more experienced user to fix bad practices early. Would you? https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3yHJ
