00:00:48FromDiscord<evoalg> Beefy when will I be able to compile in nimskull?
00:01:06FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You can now
00:01:38FromDiscord<evoalg> with libs like strutils and slicerator?
00:03:14FromDiscord<tandy> `Error: expression 'await validateToken(lb, token)' has no type (or is ambiguous)`
00:03:14FromDiscord<tandy> oh im a dumb dumb
00:03:17FromDiscord<tandy> redefined the proc didnt i
00:03:17FromDiscord<tandy> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3NX3
00:03:33FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yes Nimskull is mostly compatible with Nim since it's a fork
00:03:47FromDiscord<evoalg> is there a nimskull channel?

01:11:28FromDiscord<ynfle> How can I get where paramTypesMatch is trying to match in the source file? I don't mind random `warning` hacks or whatever
01:41:01FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @ynfle "How can I get": `echo $lineInfoToStr(config(m.c), arg.info)` kinda works
01:41:08FromDiscord<ynfle> (edit) "$lineInfoToStr(config(m.c)," => "lineInfoToStr(config(m.c),"
01:49:32termer_Is there a way to create a Table that can contain any key type?
01:49:37FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @ynfle "`echo lineInfoToStr(config(m.c), arg.info)` kinda": Doesn't get the first frame in the stack.
01:49:49termer_I need some way to store mixed data in a table, and not JSON
01:49:54termer_or something similar to a table
01:50:02FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Make a `Table[Hash, T]`↵(<@709044657232936960_termer_=5b=49=52=43=5d>)
01:50:11FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @termer_ "Is there a way": Not one table instance. Unless you use variant object
01:50:12termer_That would be a single type though
01:50:28FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> No it'd work with any key type
01:50:34FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @termer_ "I need some way": Why would JSON not work?
01:50:52termer_JSON can hold types that my design is not supposed to
01:51:03termer_specifically, it can hold nested arrays which would be a problem
01:51:15FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @termer_ "JSON can hold types": So build on the design
01:51:58termer_Maybe I should look how the JSON implementation holds it
01:52:40termer_JsonNode is just an object that holds every possible type for a node, right?
01:52:49FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @termer_ "JsonNode is just an": Yup
01:52:59termer_well that's pretty inefficient
01:53:22FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3NXo
01:53:29FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Can use multiple Key types fine
01:53:55termer_@Elegantbeef I'm not looking to hold multiple key types
01:54:01termer_I'm looking to hold multiple value types
01:54:09FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Well you should've said that
01:54:16termer_I thought I did, my bad
01:54:21termer_Interesting, JsonNode has a switch-case in the object definition
01:54:23termer_didn't know you could do that
01:54:30FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Object variants are the best way
01:55:06FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yes that's an object variant it's the most memory efficient method of doing this as the type size is the largest branch
01:55:06termer_All right, thanks
01:55:25FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You can also look at https://github.com/alaviss/union

03:03:19FromDiscord<Bung> @ElegantBeef hey , get news to me ?
03:05:02FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I cannot fix the packages
03:05:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> if you want to use a package make an issue on the package's repo about not being usable in VM
03:06:00FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you cannot import it using `nim e ./my.nims` i cannot do anything
03:06:40FromDiscord<Bung> how to do that , it seems it's a error during parsing
03:06:53FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> What do you mean
03:07:01FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The issue was with stacktrace
03:07:05FromDiscord<Bung> I tried use when nimvm but it will throw before that
03:07:06FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> nimscript doesnt have stacktrace
03:08:49FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I'd like a solution but Nimscripter isnt the problem afaik
03:12:18FromDiscord<Bung> I tried `when not defined(release) and not nimvm:` not work.
03:12:37FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> nimvm is special
03:12:45FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> do `and not defined(nimscript)`

03:22:10FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I assume same thing is the issue
03:22:26FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> They use `countBits64` which is a exported procedure only in Nim
03:24:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Nimscript is a subset of Nim so not everything will work
03:29:46*arkurious quit (Quit: Leaving)
03:33:27FromDiscord<Bung> what I can do for support it
03:33:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Use libraries that support compile time code is generally it really
03:34:08FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I imagine a lot of treeform's libraries will work
03:35:14FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Anything that relies on lower level logic that doesnt handle nimscript will require changes
03:39:24FromDiscord<Rika> treeform makes networking and other libraries too, i imagine its not "a lot"
03:39:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I suppose
03:40:32FromDiscord<Bung> found it occurs in set in operator
03:47:42FromDiscord<BhamidipatiNikhil> I have no idea Why is this error occuring? https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/937192323404681216/unknown.png

03:57:53FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `readUint8` reads the next character as a byte
03:58:25FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You want to read until you hit a space then parse that as an int
03:58:40FromDiscord<BhamidipatiNikhil> In reply to @Elegantbeef "You want to read": Yes, exactly!
03:58:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> So then do that 😀
04:00:36FromDiscord<BhamidipatiNikhil> In reply to @Rika "stdin is a File": readLine(stdin) is valid, while readUint8(stdin) is invalid although in the manual both take (s: stream) as input in their definitions and i was thinking that stdin is a stream so it should work for both

05:07:42FromDiscord<BhamidipatiNikhil> In reply to @evoalg "beefy said "There should": Yes sure!
05:32:27termer_How would I go about converting a uint64 containing its max value to an int64?
05:32:47termer_or vise-versa
05:32:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You want the bit signature?
05:32:59FromDiscord<evoalg> How would one go about reading input from the keyboard without it being entered with the return key?
05:33:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `cast[int](yourUint)`
05:33:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `getCh` or using a library that automates it
05:33:35FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `getCh` is blocking
05:34:04termer_Thanks
05:34:26termer_cast does it properly
05:34:42termer_I forgot about that, I was just doing a literal cast with (uint64)
05:34:46FromDiscord<evoalg> gotcha ok thx I can work with that I think ... if I want to create a game then I'll think about a using a lib
05:35:02FromDiscord<evoalg> would it be some sort of async lib?
05:35:15FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> cast is a bit siganture cast, the other is a type conversion
05:35:42FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Depends on the library and what you're doing
05:37:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> illwill/ncurses for instance let your read keys like a game engine
05:37:28FromDiscord<evoalg> I guess I was pretending that I was able to create a space invaders game where left & right & fire would be acted upon, but in the mean time I still want the baddies to march down
05:37:40FromDiscord<evoalg> nice thx
05:37:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You could use Nico for space incaders
05:38:16FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's easy to work with and allows you to draw proper graphics
05:38:21FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Plus you can annoy impbox
05:38:57FromDiscord<evoalg> I was just curious but I'll store this in my notes - thanks!
05:39:26FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Ncurses is how you'd probably want to do it otherwise
05:39:36FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> or illwill(pure Nim so clearly better)
05:39:49FromDiscord<evoalg> ahh nice
05:44:05FromDiscord<Rika> i would not say that
05:44:31FromDiscord<Rika> it is less robust and less battle tested. if a wrapper is made well it would be better than a pure nim solution
05:44:40FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Not say what?
05:44:48FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I was joking
05:45:00FromDiscord<Rika> evo may not have understood that
05:45:28FromDiscord<evoalg> ahhh I didn't understand - thanks Rika!
05:47:49FromDiscord<evoalg> I think beefy has faith that I'm smarter than I am sometimes
05:49:28FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> There is a benefit of pure nim though in that it doesnt require an other dependencies, minor benefit but alas
05:49:55FromDiscord<evoalg> and it might be easier for the community to maintain
05:50:07FromDiscord<evoalg> or adjust
05:50:21FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> With external libraries you either use dynamic libraries(shipped aside the binary or on the system) or static linked (compiled into the binary)
05:50:33FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea it's nicer to have pure libraries due to being written in the language you're using but the question was of quality
05:51:35FromDiscord<evoalg> dynamic libs, eg written in c, and nim can import those fine (I think I read that on here)
05:51:49FromDiscord<Bung> anyone could give me some idea to improve my parser https://github.com/bung87/scorper/blob/8e22995ac2bb9a6f489bbc742a5b03d22631a0a2/src/scorper/http/multipartparser.nim#L266
05:51:52FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Nim can use both dynamic and static
05:52:08FromDiscord<evoalg> nice!
05:52:16FromDiscord<Bung> I do some search on Boyer–Moore but am using buffered string
05:57:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I'd give advice but i dont know the domain 😀
06:10:43FromDiscord<Bung> it's about find http multipart form boundary , you see now I search boundary by loop every char
06:17:00FromDiscord<Bung> when found boundary the content part is finished so I can save it to disk , the hard part is I use buffered string so I may read part of boundary, current implementation works but code looks very dumb

09:07:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> To use Zig you'd need to use a shell file due to `zig cc` being how you call it
09:07:13FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's documented in places
09:09:15FromDiscord<Tetralux> Yeah - I saw that, but I couldn't figure out what command I needed to make it use it. `--cc` wasn't it.

09:14:23kobi7by the way I want to recommend the commandant package. it's an argument parser for command line usage. It works really great. supports subcommands as well
09:14:40FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Should `DEFAULT_TIMES` be a `const`?
09:14:59kobi7yeah, this is just a remnant of the python codee
09:15:14FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Ah
09:15:16kobi7they are sun angles and their description
09:15:25FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Didnt know if `DateTIme` could be a `const`
09:15:39kobi7i want to separate it better, build from below instead of above
09:15:53FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> To reeeee at you like rika used to you dont do `a: type` consistently
09:16:03FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> used to me, you\
09:16:11kobi7i mean, handle one, than do many, instead of how it's written in python, but for now it works and i am already time limited anyway
09:16:19FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Also put your example inside a `when isMainModule:` 😀
09:16:28kobi7thanks
09:16:40FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> No problem

09:19:12kobi7porting from python is almost straight forward. I am an advocator for transpilers and automated porting. I think pylib is really cool and should be contributed to.
09:19:31*jmdaemon quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)
09:20:05kobi7since devs are invested in their languages, the best way is to have a porting effort. since projects change and improve so fast these days, it's better to have automated tools for porting.
09:20:52kobi7for example, see nuget.org (dot net's package manager)
09:21:00kobi7it has 292,169 unique packages...
09:21:20FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea automated porting is harder from languages without similar conventions though
09:21:56FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> C to Nim could be done for the most part automatically but it's not a fun thing
09:22:20kobi7python has a lot, and other trending languages as well. I am currently interested in dart, and there are other clean languages, rust etc. to port a high level language is safer, and with nim its performance will be better.
09:23:46kobi7I wrote a tool to do cs to nim, but even there, the languages are different. The proper way is to have an intermediate language, that has all the constructs imaginable, and knows how to translate them to a "lesser" language (lesser meaning a simpler one)
09:24:08kobi7but it's a lot of effort. much more complicated than it seems at first
09:25:03kobi7even with the tool i wrote, i do not handle c# annotations, reflection, and any other code generation or macro-like
09:25:38kobi7if porting from python, you cannot use any runtime eval etc. unless you use python in runtime like nimpy.
09:25:45FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea languages with vastly different conventions is just going to be hell to machine transpile
09:26:05kobi7and there is the problem of Dynamic type, and Array of Object - stuff like that, which Nim doesn't directly support
09:26:40FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I mean it kinda does but yea
09:27:36kobi7Nim can be regarded a superset sometimes, so it's possible. and with macros, we have things like the classes package and other things that can enable the use case.
09:27:54kobi7Right, nim does have variant kinds, which can mimic Object
09:28:03FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I mean without any magic
09:28:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3NYC
09:28:19kobi7https://github.com/Carpall/nobject
09:28:52kobi7yes, but add an int, or string to that list...
09:28:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It doesnt work on all types only `ref RootObj` but it's atleast there
09:29:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That was the "kinda"
09:29:18kobi7:) actually i almost forgot that it can.

16:23:46PMunchhttps://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3O1T
16:24:32PMunchThere is another way of doing it, which means that it is an error to not declare all the types, and that you can only use a `Values` enum value to get data from the array
16:24:40PMunchBut that kinda seems to be the case for you as well
16:25:51PMunchIt says that it is `array[0..1, string]`, but I believe it is actually `array[valA..valC, string]` or put a different way `array[Values(0..1), string]`

19:53:09FromDiscord<yumi> by the way, how can i silence the output of a proc in nim?
19:53:30FromDiscord<yumi> sent a code paste, see https://paste.rs/Mqk
19:57:44FromDiscord<ajusa> In reply to @yumi "i need to silence": what's the full command? did you try `curl -s`?
19:58:06FromDiscord<yumi> i tried curl -LO {file} {url}
19:58:12FromDiscord<yumi> there is an -s param?
19:59:18FromDiscord<ajusa> I see the code you posted earlier, if you are on a UNIXy system `curl -LO {file} {url} > /dev/null` should work.
20:00:00FromDiscord<ajusa> alternatively you could do `curl -L {url} > {file}`, that might work as well.
20:00:26FromDiscord<yumi> but > doesnt work with execShellCmd
20:00:32FromDiscord<yumi> lemme try -s

21:46:42FromDiscord<Waldecir Santos> is there a way to run unitests with a "failfast" option so the test stops on the first error ?
21:57:18FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Pmunch you about?
22:00:02FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Or i suppose if anyone is around that knows how to get kate to do error reporting

22:25:25FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @Waldecir Santos "is there a way": https://nim-lang.org/docs/unittest.html#abortOnError See docs on this `var`
22:27:02FromDiscord<Waldecir Santos> Awesome thank you
22:30:37FromDiscord<treeform> In reply to @creikey "does anybody happen to": It does not flip images, 0,0 is top left. Its very easy to flip though just call flip: https://nimdocs.com/treeform/pixie/pixie/images.html#flipVertical%2CImage
22:30:59FromDiscord<treeform> In reply to @Isofruit "The tooling obviously isn't": thank you for using jsony!
22:31:44FromDiscord<Phil> In reply to @treeform "thank you for using": You're welcome, but how come the message?
22:32:37FromDiscord<Phil> (edit) "welcome," => "welcome (or rather: Thank you for making the lib!),"
22:33:12FromDiscord<Phil> Oh! As a sidenote though, a question! I stumbled into a scenario where I wasn't sure how to solve it with jsony
22:33:33FromDiscord<treeform> do you have a small test case for that?
22:34:04FromDiscord<Phil> Not quite, I'm not sure how to make that understandable without providing context of the usecase
22:35:28FromDiscord<treeform> I messaged you because I did search for my lib names and your msg came up, so I replied.
22:36:04FromDiscord<treeform> In reply to @creikey "why are the functions": What functions name you don't like?
22:37:24FromDiscord<treeform> In reply to @Isofruit "Oh! As a sidenote": All most all jsony solution require a parseHook of some sort.
22:37:44FromDiscord<Waldecir Santos> How in nim can I override the object constructor when using OOP ?
22:39:05FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You dont override the object constructor you make your own constructor
22:39:10FromDiscord<Phil> sent a long message, see http://ix.io/3O4O
22:39:45FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @Waldecir Santos "How in nim can": There are no constructors. You can define an `init` or `new` proc (depeneding on ref vs. regular object) or `initMyTypeName` or `newMyTypeName`. depending on your fancy
22:39:45FromDiscord<Phil> (edit) "http://ix.io/3O4O" => "http://ix.io/3O4P"
22:40:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I mean there is `Type()` that's a constructor
22:40:09FromDiscord<Phil> Wait, as I typed it out the answer hit me in the face
22:41:41FromDiscord<Phil> I keep forgetting nim has type aliasing
22:41:47FromDiscord<Waldecir Santos> In reply to @ynfle "There are no constructors.": Got it thank you.
22:42:17FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @Elegantbeef "I mean there is": You're right. No overridable constructors. I don't get to define them
22:42:53FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you're a lazy sod like me you may enjoy https://github.com/beef331/constructor
22:43:08FromDiscord<Phil> +1 for constructor
22:43:23FromDiscord<Phil> I'm using it myself in nimstoryfont, saves me so many lines of code
22:43:45FromDiscord<Phil> Every time I thought I found a bug it turns out I only found my own lies
22:44:17FromDiscord<Phil> ~~Meaning I had no proper understanding on when it generates initObject proc and when newObject proc~~
22:47:26FromDiscord<Phil> It became pretty much one of those things I auto-include nowadays the second I smell an object becoming part of my project

23:13:39FromDiscord<keks> (edit)
23:13:39FromDiscord<creikey> In reply to @treeform "It does not flip": I thought they were being flipped because I had accidentally swapped the `top` and `bottom` parameters of the ortho projection, so everything was being flipped
23:14:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> you need `proc initVec[N: static int, T](a: array[N, T]): Vector[N, T] =`↵(@keks)
23:15:38FromDiscord<creikey> In reply to @treeform "What functions name you": I just have never heard the term reactor before, apparently it's standard though
23:15:49FromDiscord<creikey> (edit) "In reply to @treeform "What functions name you": I just have never heard the term reactor before, ... apparently" added "like in `newReactor`,"
23:16:58FromDiscord<keks> In reply to @Elegantbeef "you need `proc initVec[N:": Ohhh! Thank you, I wouldn't have guessed it myself for sure.
23:19:29FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That's why they keep me around, i have a good understanding of what causes issues 😛
23:19:54FromDiscord<treeform> In reply to @Isofruit "A lot of it": you can put json nodes into your objects see docs: https://github.com/treeform/jsony#full-support-for-json-in-json
23:20:07FromDiscord<treeform> "Sometimes your json objects could contain arbitrary json structures, maybe event user defined."
23:21:10FromDiscord<treeform> In reply to @creikey "I just have never": Yeah its pretty common even has its own Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactor_pattern
23:22:57FromDiscord<creikey> In reply to @treeform "Yeah its pretty common": yeah makes sense as a term then
