00:10:38FromDiscord<huantian> You might want to serialize the json into a proper Nim type outside of the macro first
00:12:50FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> In reply to @auxym "`static[JsonNode]`, probably": Ah
00:12:59FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> In reply to @huantian "You might want to": That'd be... Massive
00:13:42FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> JsonNodes can't be constant
00:13:47FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> Can't be a constant
00:13:49FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> So there's that

00:34:33FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> That's the json i need to parse
00:34:42FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> As you can tell: It's going to be hell for me haha
00:35:48FromDiscord<huantian> Well someone did it in rust so it should be decently possible at least
00:36:25FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> Definitely possible, but a pain™️
00:36:43FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> I'd probably have an easier time using Python to do some string manipulation to hack together the code :p
00:37:51FromDiscord<huantian> They probably have a schema somewhere for the json so json parsing shouldn’t be too bad
00:38:02FromDiscord<huantian> Regarding code generation i don’t know enough to know how hard that would be
00:38:38FromDiscord<huantian> (edit) "bad" => "bad↵Or you can use that one Nim package that generates types from json"
00:44:06FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> In reply to @huantian "They probably have a": What package is that? Also, I don't think they have a schema for it
00:44:16FromDiscord<Hourglass [She/Her]> They do have two of the types documented at least

00:50:40FromDiscord<huantian> it describes the format of the protocol.json
00:52:32FromDiscord<huantian> you'd probably want to implement protodef to read and parse the protocol.json
00:54:19FromDiscord<ajusa> Has anyone been able to use any of the libraries in Nim to parse https://github.com/googleapis/googleapis ? I tried it with PMunch's library, status, and https://github.com/oskaritimperi/nimpb but wasn't able to get it to work

07:25:46FromDiscord<Gumbercules> yeah - just updating a texture, however I can feed this texture into my compute shader tessellation technique which will perform LODing and frustum culling
07:26:35FromDiscord<Gumbercules> tessellation complicates picking unfortunately and updating a quadtree when the terrain changes is rather expensive

08:51:55FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> Hi, is there any way to make an interface like this in Nim? https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1077512982134784040/image.png
08:53:17FromDiscord<Rika> Yeah sure why not? That looks like imgui
08:53:39PMunchHmm, is there a way to apply a term rewriting macro to imported modules?
08:53:39FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @Rika "Yeah sure why not?": yeah it is ImGUI, very nice UI framework
08:54:12PMunch@System64_~_Flandre_Scarlet, a quick google turned up this: https://github.com/nimgl/imgui
08:54:41FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @PMunch "@System64_~_Flandre_Scarlet, a quick google": Yeah, I use this, very good↵But building links interactions sounds like pain
08:55:53FromDiscord<Rika> Unironically maybe go ask ChatGPT to do it for you if its that much of a pain
08:56:09FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> Good idea, let's try it
08:56:10PMunchOh you mean like drawing the curved lines?
08:56:32FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @PMunch "Oh you mean like": Drawing is fine↵I meant, clicking on the nodes to make links
08:56:40PMunchRight
08:57:31PMunchWhen you write "is there a way to do X in Nim" I think most people assume the issue you're facing is how to get it working in Nim specifically :P
08:57:54PMunchWhy would clicking on nodes to link them be hard?
08:59:08FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> Shouldn't I create invisible buttons?
08:59:13FromDiscord<Rika> It’s prolly better to use a drag and drop link system
08:59:28FromDiscord<Rika> Where you have a part of the node that you drag out to make a link to drag into another node
08:59:48FromDiscord<Rika> Not sure what you mean about clicking nodes to link
09:00:01FromDiscord<Rika> What I said is what I know traditionally
09:02:29FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> https://gist.github.com/ocornut/7e9b3ec566a333d725d4↵I translated this code to Nim
09:02:40FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> sadly it doesn't have link interaction
09:05:08FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> https://github.com/redacted-moose/nuklear.nim↵Oh found this, there is a Node editor example, but it isn't updated since... 6 years
09:06:28FromDiscord<Gumbercules> @ElegantBeef - I think if I implement mapping compute buffers back to the CPU, I should be able to read the height values back that the tessellation shader produces and then my raycast for mouse picking would be accurate
09:06:39FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> Even worse, it says the package Nuklear... Doesn't exist!
09:07:16FromDiscord<Phil> I swear half the time when I "spend time writing nim code" I'm actually writing docs
09:08:05FromDiscord<Phil> Just realized that one when I looked at how long I've been writing at my latest PR to add docs elsewhere and am currently preparing the second
09:09:51PMunch@Phil, that just means Nim is fast enough to use that you have time writing docs
09:10:15PMunchWriting docs is a good thing
09:10:35FromDiscord<SpiderDave> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4oLC
09:10:54FromDiscord<Phil> Nono, I'm writing docs for packages I want to use so that I can actually understand them and their features properly (as well as have reference docs to stare at when I inevitably forget sth) 😛
09:12:41FromDiscord<Phil> Erm... I could tell you that one for using owlkettle (which uses GTK)
09:12:46FromDiscord<Phil> No experience with ui
09:13:54PMunchOoh, nice I was able to use `--import` in order to import a tiny module with my term rewriting macro to rewrite throughout all the imported modules
09:14:24FromDiscord<Phil> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4oLE

09:27:20FromDiscord<Phil> This is the kind of issue after which I jump to refc
09:27:43FromDiscord<Phil> Happens occasionally, I don't understand it, so I just assume that whatever exploded was intended for usage with refc
09:27:56FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> https://github.com/redacted-moose/nuklear.nim↵I use that
09:28:09FromDiscord<Phil> Yeah most definitely written during the times of refc
09:28:22FromDiscord<Phil> So may use something that ORC can't deal with properly
09:28:42FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> and if I use something like ARC?
09:29:01FromDiscord<Phil> ORC is ARC with additions
09:29:33FromDiscord<Phil> So I'd assume either it will also blow up, or you're likely to have a memory leak somewhere because GUI is notorious for cyclical references
09:29:38FromDiscord<4zv4l> is there `union` in Nim ?
09:29:46FromDiscord<Phil> There is object variants
09:29:50FromDiscord<4zv4l> so I can have a union type that is either a string either a seq[string]
09:30:00FromDiscord<4zv4l> or I can just use seq[string] ?
09:30:16FromDiscord<4zv4l> `seq[string]` of cap 1↵takes as much as a simple `string` ?
09:30:29FromDiscord<Phil> I mean, you could just always use seq[string] and sometimes it just contains a single entry
09:30:32FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @Isofruit "So I'd assume either": Ah alright, so I guess there is nothing to do I guess?
09:30:52FromDiscord<Phil> If you insist on having string and seq[string] then you should look at object variants
09:31:29FromDiscord<Phil> In reply to @System64 "Ah alright, so I": Unless you want to get into the weeds with nuklear and start wrapping your head around why ORC fails there, I don't see any.↵Well unless you start compiling with `--mm:refc`, that should still work
09:32:01FromDiscord<Phil> refc after all didn't go away, it just was moved to no longer be the default
09:33:02FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> still explodes
09:33:10FromDiscord<Phil> 🤷
09:33:28FromDiscord<Phil> Sorry, I'm really not familiar with it, my GUI experience is limited to owlkettle for the moment
09:33:47FromDiscord<Phil> Beef or Yard might know more what that error is about
09:34:08FromDiscord<Phil> Actually, Pmunch maybe as well

09:40:11*randomuser464876 joined #nim
09:40:16FromDiscord<4zv4l> windows type
09:40:27FromDiscord<4zv4l> basically pointer to a struct usually
09:40:35FromDiscord<Phil> And your last line is an expression
09:40:44FromDiscord<Phil> So that line is used as if it were `return GlobalUnlock(files)`
09:41:00FromDiscord<4zv4l> I thought if result was defined in the proc
09:41:07FromDiscord<4zv4l> it would indirectly return it at the end
09:41:38FromDiscord<4zv4l> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4oLP
09:41:42FromDiscord<4zv4l> I guess that's because if `result = ...`

09:45:48PMunch@System64_~_Flandre_Scarlet, are you able to build the examples?
09:46:26PMunchI guess you could try wrapping it with Futhark, those bindings seem a bit outdated

09:47:40FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @PMunch "I guess you could": ah yeah, futhark might work, I'll give it a try
09:53:03FromDiscord<Phil> In reply to @4zv4l "<@180601887916163073> https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix": If you need to use an extra pragma (in your case discardable) then I'd say you're using tooling for an edgecase 😛↵↵I'd see this as a hint you're about to stumble into an anti-pattern.

10:06:47FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @Gumbercules "and it's still joyless": I brought Tilengine to Nim with that
10:07:18FromDiscord<Gumbercules> I mean, binding to stuff is cool, just not maintaining a set of bindings for other people
10:07:22FromDiscord<Gumbercules> that gets old extremely quick
10:07:33FromDiscord<Gumbercules> at least in my experience
10:10:04FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> I know there is C++ library for node editors, but C++ 🤮
10:10:36FromDiscord<Gumbercules> why not something like? https://github.com/thedmd/imgui-node-editor
10:10:57FromDiscord<Gumbercules> I mean, nuklear is cool and all but is lacking many features of dear imgui

10:13:48FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @Gumbercules "why not something like?": the problem is this Node Editor uses C++
10:14:03FromDiscord<Gumbercules> oh yeah - I just meant as an example to port
10:15:51FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @Gumbercules "oh yeah - I": If you want to know my goal, I want to do a modular synthesizer
10:20:39FromDiscord<Gumbercules> well I think either Nuklear or Dear IMGUI would be good options - depends on what features you want

10:28:26FromDiscord<Gumbercules> well, regardless, it's not nearly as provocative as the other kind of docking
10:28:30FromDiscord<Gumbercules> window docking I mean
10:29:10FromDiscord<Phil> Window docking in this context just means it gets aligned like if you use the Windows + Arrow shortcut to align a window to the left/right?
10:30:05FromDiscord<Phil> Or does it mean getting displayed in the dock at the bottom (if you use windows or windows-like GUIs) with an icon?
10:32:42FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @Isofruit "Window docking in this": I think it's that
10:32:53FromDiscord<Phil> Ah, it's the "hold it to the right edge and it expands to take up half the screen"
10:33:13FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @Gumbercules "well I think either": I think I need a draw list for drawing the nodes and links
10:33:50FromDiscord<Gumbercules> In reply to @System64 "I think I need": Nuklear has an example in the demo folder
10:34:06FromDiscord<System64 ~ Flandre Scarlet> In reply to @Gumbercules "Nuklear has an example": Yeah, but I can't compile it
10:34:07FromDiscord<Phil> Wait, is docking enabled on a per application basis?
10:34:09FromDiscord<Gumbercules> In reply to @Isofruit "Window docking in this": yes this is what it means
10:34:18FromDiscord<Gumbercules> but inside the application

13:19:18FromDiscord<Phil> Huh, questions I never asked myself since I always deployed prologue inside a container with a thread limit
13:32:36FromDiscord<turbo> K, another question: how do I just add a key to the context in a middleware. The docs examples don't demonstrate that (only closures by wrapping the response handler). Ideally I'd want to do: [any request] -> [middleware injects keys] -> [any request can use keys]
13:33:23PMunchLooking at the sources it ppears you should be able to set "numThreads" as a setting to override the default
13:34:09FromDiscord<Phil> In reply to @turbo "K, another question: how": ?↵You extend the context object first, then you set said field in the middleware.
13:34:48FromDiscord<turbo> Extend how - inheriting it?

15:03:17FromDiscord<turbo> When `sharedtables` talks about only using non-GC values, does that mean scalars only or is a non-ref object containing scalars also fine?
15:09:12FromDiscord<4zv4l> is there a way to use `fmt` at runtime ?

15:12:03FromDiscord<gogolxdong> Cannot open file after nimble install
15:12:11FromDiscord<Dudugz> Just for curiosity:↵ If I install a local library I made using "nimble install" and then run that library into a binary and compile that binary and put it on another computer and run it. Would this work normally? I mean the library was just installed and imported without compiling to dll's or anything.
15:12:14Amun-Ra4zv4l: nope
15:12:36FromDiscord<4zv4l> In reply to @Amun-Ra "<@329196212282458112>: nope": how come ?↵what if I need to format a string with variable at runtime ?
15:12:45Amun-Ra4zv4l: & and fmt are macros
15:12:54Amun-Ra4zv4l: std/strutils etc.
15:13:13FromDiscord<4zv4l> there is not an equivalent to `fmt ""` but for runtime ?
15:13:18Amun-Rano
15:13:20Amun-Rathere is not
15:13:28Amun-Ranot it the batteries, at least
15:13:39Amun-RaI mean not in stdlib
15:14:14FromDiscord<4zv4l> cause the string the messagebox my program will show can be customized in a config file↵since it's known at runtime, I can't use fmt with it :/
15:14:42Amun-Rais that formatting so sophisticated you can't use $#?
15:15:24FromDiscord<4zv4l> well I want that in the string they give in the config file they can for example add↵`"warning: {username} tried to {action}"`
15:16:19PMunch@Dudugz, a compiled binary wouldn't require any installed Nim library. Of course you'd have to build it for the platform you're targeting, but I've built things on my Linux machine and uploaded them to a server to run there multiple times.
15:16:20Amun-Ra"warning: {username} tried".replace("{username}", "yadda")
15:16:38FromDiscord<Dudugz> In reply to @PMunch "<@265937132886032407>, a compiled binary": Sure, thx
15:16:38Amun-Rait's not the same, but it works
15:16:39PMunchAnd the server has never seen Nim, Nimble, or choosenim
15:16:44*PMunch quit (Quit: Leaving)
15:17:07FromDiscord<4zv4l> In reply to @Amun-Ra ""warning: {username} tried".replace("{username}", "": yeah but they shouldn't have to modify the code
15:17:21FromDiscord<4zv4l> with that they have to modify it
15:17:24Amun-Ra4zv4l: there's no code modification there
15:17:40Amun-Rawhat you want *is* code modification
15:17:45FromDiscord<4zv4l> `.replace("{username}", "yadda")` ?
15:17:49FromDiscord<Dudugz> But doesn't the fmt macro in theory do the same thing as replace? In this case, it would only be syntactic sugar
15:17:50FromDiscord<4zv4l> would be in the raw string ?
15:18:23FromDiscord<4zv4l> In reply to @Amun-Ra "what you want *is*": I mean, I want them to be able to change the warning without modifying the code and they can add some specific variable name inside the format
15:18:55Amun-Ra4zv4l: you read the format string from the config file; so for example you end up with: let s = "{username} etc." then you replace all the magics, "{username}", "{action}" etc. substring after substring
15:20:17FromDiscord<4zv4l> but the replace is in the code or in the config file ?
15:20:23Amun-Rain the code
15:20:36FromDiscord<4zv4l> but what if they dont put `{username}` in the raw string ?
15:20:39FromDiscord<4zv4l> will replace nothing
15:20:42FromDiscord<4zv4l> but still work
15:20:44FromDiscord<4zv4l> right ?
15:20:48Amun-Raright
15:21:11Amun-Raif there's nothing to replace there's no substring replace
15:21:28FromDiscord<4zv4l> and that works at runtime ?
15:21:29Amun-Raso they have all the freedom
15:21:57Amun-Rayes
15:22:21Amun-Racrude example: let some_format_string = read_file "config.fmt"; echo some_format_string.replace("{user}", user)
15:23:40Amun-Rathe only real work is to parse config file
15:24:33Amun-Rawell, I forgot about std/parsecfg ;>
15:25:13FromDiscord<4zv4l> it works
15:25:15FromDiscord<4zv4l> so great
15:25:17FromDiscord<4zv4l> thank you so much !
15:25:21Amun-Rano worries :)
15:25:28Amun-Raglad I could help
15:27:36FromDiscord<4zv4l> if I return a tuple for the config↵how can I return only some of the elements and keep the defaults one for the one I don't specify value ?
15:28:42FromDiscord<4zv4l> like tuple with default values
15:32:17FromDiscord<4zv4l> because for now if in the json file, all the keys aren't there, it fails

16:44:16FromDiscord<turbo> I've got an issue: `sleepAsync`, even with `0` as the parameter, always sleeps at least 400ms. That is `await sleepAsync(1)` takes at least that long, sometimes an entire second. What's up with that?

17:01:09FromDiscord<demotomohiro> @turbo You can read Nim generated C code in nimcache directory or C compiler generated assembly with some compiler options.
17:01:28FromDiscord<turbo> In reply to @demotomohiro "<@649274482762055690> You can read": Where's the nimcache?
17:03:02FromDiscord<Rika> In reply to @turbo "I've got an issue:": not sure but maybe its because sleepasync will always yield back to the event loop to run other tasks but its kinda strange how high the overhead is

17:22:35FromDiscord<Yepoleb> oh
17:22:47FromDiscord<Yepoleb> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4oOY
17:22:52FromDiscord<Yepoleb> i used this to test and it works as intended
17:23:06FromDiscord<Yepoleb> on linux
17:23:29FromDiscord<Yepoleb> getting almost ms precise timings
17:24:09FromDiscord<Rika> Yeah I think it’s strange
17:24:18FromDiscord<Yepoleb> can you test if this example works for you?
17:24:22FromDiscord<Rika> It’s maybe related to the async backend macOS uses
17:29:32FromDiscord<turbo> That does work. Same thing in a prologue handler in my system has the same issue. I'll try to create a small repro at some later point
17:30:17FromDiscord<Rika> Maybe there are tasks being scheduled that you aren’t noticing
17:31:17FromDiscord<Yepoleb> it very likely is some other task blocking
17:33:05FromDiscord<turbo> sent a code paste, see https://paste.rs/FUB
17:37:08FromDiscord<Yepoleb> await can't be used outside an async procedure, so we're missing the relevant context
17:39:06FromDiscord<Yepoleb> the sleepAsync is not the problem, something else is
18:03:39FromDiscord<turbo> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4oPa
18:04:24FromDiscord<turbo> The `knnThreadArgsPtr[].shmState.` is irrelevant, the same happens with channels and `tryRecv` in a loop

18:20:44FromDiscord<Yepoleb> In reply to @turbo "There are only async": the problem is not in the code that gets slowed down but in some other task that is delaying it and could be anywhere in your application
