| jnthn | Hm, it says it's not on any branch, so dunno. But it looks familiar... | 13:21 | |
| Will check later | |||
| Xliff | OK. Thanks for the help. | ||
| Geth | cro-webapp: Xliff++ created pull request #75: Adds the ability to add supplementary markup to the form |
13:36 | |
| Xliff | jnthn: There you go. | 13:37 | |

| Xliff | If I have a sub with a signature like <:sub a ($text, :$n = 1)>, can I set $n in a template like this: <&a(n => 2)> ? | 09:44 | |
| jnthn | Well, you'd need to pass an argument for $text too, since that's not optional, and I think only colonpair syntax is supported | 09:47 | |
| Xliff | Ah! Thanks for that. | 09:56 | |
| Next question :) | 09:57 | ||
| What's the best way to iterate when you only have the number of iterations stored in a variable? | |||
| Is the <@^$v> syntax supported? | |||
| jnthn | No. Dunno how you'd do that with iteration. Can write it as a recursive function, though :) | 09:59 | |
| Although I'd probably just send a Range into the template data instead of the number | 10:00 | ||
| Xliff | Yeah, was thinking that. Was hoping to keep that solely in the template. | ||
| Thanks for the idea though. | 10:01 | ||
| I'll see if I can shoehorn that into the template language and submit a PR. | |||
| That will be in my copious free time, however. | |||
| Which is a complete lie. | |||
| jnthn | I...don't really like that syntax, fwiw | ||
| Xliff | Which would you prefer? | 10:02 | |
| jnthn | Dunno. Maybe a more general <@{ ... }> form a bit like the <?{ ... }> form | 10:03 | |
| Xliff | So... | ||
| <@{1..3}> ? | |||
| <@{$s..$e}> ? | |||
| jnthn | Yeah. I don't even mind the ^$s inside of there, tbh | ||
| Xliff | OK... so as long as it evals to a range inside the curlies? | 10:04 | |
| jnthn | Yeah | ||
| Xliff | I should be able to work with that. | ||
| jnthn | Well, I mean, it can do anything in the curlies really | ||
| Xliff | Will keep you posted. | ||
| jnthn | So it's 1) support having an expression in curlies, like with `?` and `!` sigil tags, 2) add range operators to the expression language | 10:05 | |
| Xliff | Yeah. Something like that. | ||
| jnthn | Then it's neat for e.g. <@{ .some-cond ?? .some-array !! .some-other-array }> or similar | 10:06 | |
| Xliff | Yep. And value check would test that expression would evaluate to Iterable or throw? | 10:08 | |
| Array will. Range will. | 10:09 | ||
| jnthn | Don't think we need to; Raku doesn't | 10:13 | |
| Xliff | OK | ||
| jnthn | (the "item is a 1-item list in such a context" rule) | ||
| Xliff | jnthn: Thanks for the recusion solution. It was simple enough to implement. | 10:19 | |
| jnthn: Is there any way to create a Signature object from another Signature? | 11:47 | ||
| lizmat | Xliff: apart from .clone ? | 11:48 | |
| Xliff | No. | 11:50 | |
| I was able to come up with this... | |||
| m: 1.say | |||
| Oh.. No bot here. | |||
| sub a ("a", "b", $c, :$d) { }; Signature.new( params => &a.signature.params[1..*] ).gist.say | |||
| The reason why I am asking, is that I am looking for ways to simplify application creation. | 11:51 | ||
| I'd like to set up a controller class that has controllers as the methods. | |||
| Then have the route block create the routes from the signatures of all marked methods., | |||
| methods would be (METHOD, ...) where ... is the route | |||
| And METHOD, in this case is GET, POST, DELETE and such. | 11:52 | ||
| jnthn | You might want to look at the OpenAPI::RoutesFromDefinition module that does something kinda similar with route handlers being partly synthesized from other things | 12:51 | |
| Xliff | jnthn: Ah! Thanks! | 13:14 | |
| in RakuAST, If I want to create a Parameter from a literal, can I still use StrLiteral, or do I need a ParameterTarget? | 18:50 | ||
| The examples aren't quite clear on that. | |||
