elmlang | general | Theres at least one package that ships as a npm + elm package | 2019-01-08T11:04:59.815000 | Agustin |
elmlang | general | Where the npm package generates ports for the elm package | 2019-01-08T11:05:06.815400 | Agustin |
elmlang | general | interesting. do you know how that works? | 2019-01-08T11:05:26.815700 | Danika |
elmlang | general | Check out elm-mapbox for an example | 2019-01-08T11:08:05.816800 | Alana |
elmlang | general | Thanks | 2019-01-08T11:08:15.817000 | Danika |
elmlang | general | (which is awesome, btw) | 2019-01-08T11:08:34.817500 | Alana |
elmlang | general | Ah cool so you basically just ask politely for developers to define the ports themselves (or supply different port names to the js portion of the library). | 2019-01-08T11:11:38.817600 | Danika |
elmlang | general | This was the package I was thinking of <https://github.com/billstclair/elm-websocket-client> | 2019-01-08T11:19:15.818100 | Agustin |
elmlang | general | But its a copy and paste job, I thought someone was talking about adding a generator | 2019-01-08T11:19:35.818600 | Agustin |
elmlang | general | seems like thats the only way to go. I’d like to throw together a simple Web Audio library over the weekend (elm-webaudio is _old_) as FP works well in the audio processing world | 2019-01-08T11:23:47.820000 | Danika |
elmlang | general | If you find something that works well, you might be able to ask for an elm-explorations repo | 2019-01-08T11:45:05.820900 | Agustin |
elmlang | general | That allows native code as experimental packages | 2019-01-08T11:45:31.821300 | Agustin |
elmlang | general | I have no idea what the process is though | 2019-01-08T11:45:47.821600 | Agustin |
elmlang | general | Ah I doubt anything i whip together will come close to being blessed with native code ^^ | 2019-01-08T11:47:09.822100 | Danika |
elmlang | general | And this developer gladly complied! :slightly_smiling_face: | 2019-01-08T12:29:58.822300 | Alana |
elmlang | general | Is there a way to send/receive `Bytes` values over http? One would need Json encoders/decoders for `Bytes`, but I can’t find any. | 2019-01-08T13:44:05.823700 | Jana |
elmlang | general | I guess one could map to a huge hex string and back, but this seems wasteful. | 2019-01-08T13:44:48.824500 | Jana |
elmlang | general | Hmmm I seem to remember version 2.0 of the elm/http package having something for byte payloads | 2019-01-08T13:47:36.826900 | Carman |
elmlang | general | this is what I use
```
type Msg
= LoadFont (Result String Bytes)
loadFont : Cmd Msg
loadFont =
Http.request
{ method = "GET"
, headers = [ Http.header "Accept-Ranges" "bytes" ]
, url = currentFont.url
--, url = "../Raleway-v4020-Regular.otf"
, body = Http.emptyBody
, expect = Http.expectBytesResponse LoadFont keepBytes
, timeout = Nothing
, tracker = Nothing
}
keepBytes : Http.Response Bytes -> Result String Bytes
keepBytes response =
case response of
Http.GoodStatus_ _ bytes ->
Ok bytes
_ ->
Err (Debug.toString response)
``` | 2019-01-08T13:47:37.827000 | Virgie |
elmlang | general | <@Carman> — great, I will look there. And <@Virgie>, thankyou!!! | 2019-01-08T13:48:41.827500 | Jana |
elmlang | general | specifically `Http.expectBytesResponse` will give access to it, and then you have to transform the http response into a result as shown | 2019-01-08T13:49:30.828300 | Virgie |
elmlang | general | Looks like requests can have a `bytesBody` or a `fileBody` as their payload (in addition to the more traditional string and JSON options) | 2019-01-08T13:50:06.830000 | Carman |
elmlang | general | hello, i m upgrading an elm package from 0.18 to 0.19, what are the syntax and packaging guidelines to follow? i read the docs and but couldn't see a template to start on | 2019-01-08T14:17:32.835200 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | you mean for an `elm.json`? syntax guidelines are effectively whatever elm-format does | 2019-01-08T14:18:16.835600 | Virgie |
elmlang | general | what about the main coding structure, etc.. ? | 2019-01-08T14:19:02.836600 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | I’ve put together an API for streamlining the boilerplate in large apps with pages, sub pages, components, etc, and their communication.
I’ve been using it in a large project and it’s helped be with readability and organization (obviously this is subjective).
I’d appreciate any comments before I pull the trigger on publishing it.
<https://github.com/z5h/component-result> | 2019-01-08T14:20:39.839300 | Leoma |
elmlang | general | where do i submit an elm package? | 2019-01-08T15:02:29.840500 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | `elm publish --help` | 2019-01-08T15:07:27.840700 | Leoma |
elmlang | general | thanks | 2019-01-08T15:21:55.840900 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | i couldn't see a guideline, i trying to upload the package <https://github.com/afidegnum/elm-tailwind> a 0.19 version of. <https://github.com/splodingsocks/elm-tailwind>
The maintainer is not ready to maintain this package anymore as i discussed with him. | 2019-01-08T15:28:14.841100 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | This definitely looks like something I’d use.
One use case I had with a component that this wouldn’t work for though:
I have what I call a “SuperSelect” component which is basically just an autocomplete. One need I had while making it was the `update` function of the component, in addition to returning it’s `model` and `cmd` also returned the third option of `maybe Option` (option being an internal type for the selected autocomplete option) which was the previously selected, or just then selected option based on logic that occurred inside the component’s update function | 2019-01-08T16:58:12.841300 | Theda |
elmlang | general | I think I can actually work around that though | 2019-01-08T17:01:09.841600 | Theda |
elmlang | general | <@Theda> this is what the external message functionality is for. | 2019-01-08T17:16:52.842500 | Leoma |
elmlang | general | It’s there. Unless I’ve misunderstood your requirements. | 2019-01-08T17:17:22.843200 | Leoma |
elmlang | general | So in this case an option can be selected for a large number of reasons.
1. The input loses focus but there was a “hovered” option by arrow key navigation. `OnBlur`
2. The user clicks on an option from the autocomplete dropdown. `OnClick optionIndex`
3. The user navigates the options via arrow keys and hits “enter” to select `OnKeyPress` subscription.
So three different messages can result in this change and the consumer would have to watch for every one | 2019-01-08T17:21:58.843400 | Theda |
elmlang | general | Right, so I’n my example, my TextEditorComponent can signal that a value was accepted, or reverted: <https://github.com/z5h/component-result/blob/master/examples/src/TextEditorComponent.elm#L31>
It’s dispatched here, for example:
<https://github.com/z5h/component-result/blob/master/examples/src/TextEditorComponent.elm#L47>
And handled in the caller:
<https://github.com/z5h/component-result/blob/master/examples/src/Page.elm#L63> | 2019-01-08T17:28:11.843700 | Leoma |
elmlang | general | Actually, perhaps I’m still not understanding your need. Do you have a link to code, or an ellie or something I could see? | 2019-01-08T17:32:00.843900 | Leoma |
elmlang | general | <@Leopoldo> You mentioned not seeing guidelines for publishing packages. I’m not sure where you’re feeling stuck, but thought I’d throw this out here in case you haven’t already encountered it: <https://package.elm-lang.org/help/design-guidelines> | 2019-01-08T17:48:48.845600 | Opal |
elmlang | general | <@Opal> i read that already, i needed to run `elm publish`, which leads me to a next issue | 2019-01-08T17:50:16.846500 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | Cool. I figured maybe that was the case, but it looked like maybe you were still stuck from your last post. | 2019-01-08T17:51:06.847400 | Opal |
elmlang | general | now, it's requires i had to expose everything, which seems to be tough, they are about _10 000_ objects | 2019-01-08T17:53:18.848300 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | <https://github.com/abradley2/form-elements/blob/master/src/FormElements/SuperSelect.elm>
Ah. I see your example more clearly now. I didn't realize withExternal message used an actual message from the update. I thought it just piped whatever message the view put out | 2019-01-08T17:57:24.848400 | Theda |
elmlang | general | Just to be clear, are you still stuck, or is this just a frustration that you have a workaround for? If stuck, can you share some code snippets or other details that might help us help you? :slightly_smiling_face: | 2019-01-08T18:15:30.848900 | Opal |
elmlang | general | thanks a lot, i even forgot it figured in the docs, but in my way to share it | 2019-01-08T18:19:47.849100 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | Seems like you'd want to edit the `convert.js` so it explicitly lists all the generated functions/values instead of just having `exposing (..)` in the `elmString` | 2019-01-08T18:40:58.849400 | Earnest |
elmlang | general | on this class, <https://github.com/afidegnum/elm-tailwind/blob/master/src/Tailwind/Classes.elm> i m having an error I cannot find a ```TailwindClass` constructor:
These names seem close though:``` | 2019-01-08T18:42:06.849600 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | <@Earnest> the classes are listed in the `@docs` but i will need to work on the js as well | 2019-01-08T18:42:57.849800 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | It'd help to post the full error | 2019-01-08T18:43:07.850000 | Earnest |
elmlang | general | ``` I cannot find a `TailwindClass` constructor:
36| folder (TailwindClass c) memo =
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
These names seem close though:
Basics.EQ
Basics.False
<http://Basics.GT|Basics.GT>
<http://Basics.LT|Basics.LT>
Hint: Read <https://elm-lang.org/0.19.0/imports> to see how `import`
declarations work in Elm.
``` | 2019-01-08T18:43:59.850200 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | <https://github.com/afidegnum/elm-tailwind/blob/master/src/Tailwind.elm> | 2019-01-08T18:44:04.850400 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | you're only exporting the `TailwindClass` type, not the `TailwindClass` constructor | 2019-01-08T18:44:50.850600 | Earnest |
elmlang | general | to export all the tags/constructors you'd need to do something like `exposing (TailwindClass(..))` | 2019-01-08T18:45:13.850800 | Earnest |
elmlang | general | oh, wow! :slightly_smiling_face: | 2019-01-08T18:45:33.851000 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | Or add a function like `fromTailwindClass : TailwindClass -> String`, depending on if you want consumers to be able to create their own TailwindClass or not | 2019-01-08T18:46:08.851200 | Earnest |
elmlang | general | Just exposing the type & function means people can pull values out, but not make their own. Exposing the type & constructor means they can do both. | 2019-01-08T18:46:41.851400 | Earnest |
elmlang | general | ok... | 2019-01-08T18:47:31.851600 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | <@Earnest> apart from `exposing (TailwindClass(..))` do i add something else again? | 2019-01-08T18:58:08.851800 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | ```I do not see `absolute` in the `exposing` list, but it is in your module
documentation:
24| @docs negm_0 ...
Does it need to be added to the `exposing` list as well? Or maybe you removed
`absolute` and forgot to delete it here?
``` | 2019-01-08T19:00:17.852000 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | any hint? | 2019-01-08T19:16:15.852300 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | I've got an odd challenge; I'm trying to create a text box that automatically replaces characters as the user types. Imagine essentially typing `gamma` and after you hit space, the `gamma` becomes `ɣ` | 2019-01-08T19:37:48.853100 | Sofia |
elmlang | general | I'd like to keep the cursor in the same place as well as set the value on the input box with the new value. | 2019-01-08T19:38:26.854200 | Sofia |
elmlang | general | If I use an unkeyed `Html.input`, the cursor doesn't change positions unless the value is explicitly changed; imagine that the cursor is always set to 0 in the dom -- the dom ignores it since it never changes.
```
Html.input
[ HtmlA.type_ "text"
, HtmlA.value replacedString
, HtmlA.selectionStart inputBox.input.caret
, HtmlA.selectionEnd inputBox.input.caret
, HtmlE.onInput DoAThing
]
[]
)
]
``` | 2019-01-08T19:40:48.856500 | Sofia |
elmlang | general | If I use a keyed Html.input where the key changes every time the input changes, then the dom node gets recreated over and over which leads to the mobile keyboard quickly closing and reopening and keystrokes being dropped. | 2019-01-08T19:41:20.857200 | Sofia |
elmlang | general | Is there a good way to do this kind of auto-replace in textboxes in elm? | 2019-01-08T19:41:50.857600 | Sofia |
elmlang | general | not sure on that one, looks like it's in both... | 2019-01-08T20:57:57.857700 | Earnest |
elmlang | general | <@Sofia> we ran into a similar problem with supporting `@mentions` in a comment area, You could do it through ports with something like <https://stackoverflow.com/a/512542> and either put the cursor to the end of the input (with another port), or use a subscription that keeps track of the current cursor position and restore it to where it was. | 2019-01-08T22:26:05.865300 | Augustus |
elmlang | general | if it needs to be more complex than that I would recommend using another library like Quill and wrapping it in a custom element, you have a lot more control and easier cross-browser support with it than rolling your own | 2019-01-08T22:26:42.866200 | Augustus |
elmlang | general | can someone tell me if there's a css to list style for elm, where I would pass a block of css definition and return a list of html attribute with the style | 2019-01-09T00:05:53.867400 | Bailey |
elmlang | general | couldn't find anything on google | 2019-01-09T00:06:03.867700 | Bailey |
elmlang | general | great news~! <https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/afidegnum/elm-tailwind/latest/> | 2019-01-09T02:50:40.868100 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | can you try this ? <https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/afidegnum/elm-tailwind/latest/> | 2019-01-09T02:53:10.868700 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | <https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/afidegnum/elm-tailwind/latest> | 2019-01-09T02:53:30.868800 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | <@Leopoldo> I think <@Bailey> is asking about a general purpose tool, for any CSS, not a specific framework. I don't know of any, but depending on your case simple search and replace with regular expressions could work. Something like: replace `/(.+?)\:(.+?);/` to `Html.Attributes.style "$1" "$2" ,`. | 2019-01-09T03:46:11.871000 | Dorsey |
elmlang | general | You will probably need a little bit of manual post processing. Finally Elm Format will help you align everything. | 2019-01-09T03:47:12.871800 | Dorsey |
elmlang | general | Ok | 2019-01-09T03:52:01.872000 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | in elm 0.18 is there a way to get the entire hash part of the location. I naively tried to use
```
tokenParser =
Url.custom "TOKEN"
(\urlString -> Debug.log "" urlString .....
```
and all I ever get is the string up to the first `/` in my hash rather than the whole thing | 2019-01-09T05:00:33.874200 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | (we’ve inherited some hash routing) | 2019-01-09T05:01:13.874900 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | <@Lynn> when using `parsePath`, the parser is run on the path, when using parseHash, it only ever sees the hash. To mix, I'd try pass the `hash` as a parameter to the parser manually, so ```toRoute : Location -> Maybe Route
toRoute location =
UrlParser.parsePath (myParser location.hash) location``` | 2019-01-09T05:32:26.876400 | Huong |
elmlang | general | or something like that | 2019-01-09T05:32:58.876700 | Huong |
elmlang | general | so I am using parseHash at present but let me play around with your suggestion | 2019-01-09T05:37:44.877300 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | ohh, okay, so you want "the rest of the url" so to speak. There's no built-in way to do that at present - passing it as a parameter is the easiest way, the alternative is to build a sort of recursive, depth-limited parser, but that tends to get slow and ugly | 2019-01-09T05:39:29.879000 | Huong |
elmlang | general | perhaps an example would help | 2019-01-09T05:40:18.879400 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | if I have `<http://localhost:3000/#edit/nestedQueries/P5-ZypUo#token=23456>` (which I know is ugly) | 2019-01-09T05:40:34.879800 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | I want `#edit/nestedQueries/P5-ZypUo#token=23456` | 2019-01-09T05:40:44.880100 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | or perhaps without the first `#` | 2019-01-09T05:40:52.880300 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | what I get is `edit` and none of what follows the `/` | 2019-01-09T05:43:13.880900 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | is there an elm library that parses urls, and accepts urls that have no scheme? | 2019-01-09T06:13:31.881600 | Emilee |
elmlang | general | i'm trying to sanitize form input, and at first I used a premade regex to check urls (which did not work well *at all*), then I tried `elm/url`, but the problem here is that it only accepts urls with a scheme | 2019-01-09T06:14:11.882500 | Emilee |
elmlang | general | seems `elm/url` is not a great choice for this usecase anyway since it also accepts more urls than i want ( `<https://asdf>` for example is a valid url, but I don't want it to be accepted by my form because it doesn't have a tld) | 2019-01-09T06:25:27.883800 | Emilee |
elmlang | general | <@Lynn> I _think_ that would all be in `location.hash`. Which you have access to _outside_ your urlParser, so it can be passed along as a param | 2019-01-09T07:55:22.885400 | Huong |
elmlang | general | yes, that's what I sort of worked out. thanks again | 2019-01-09T08:33:02.886000 | Lynn |
elmlang | general | hello, anyone has collections of bare html templates to use with no js? those i have are cluttered with JSes, dificult to handle | 2019-01-09T08:38:53.887000 | Leopoldo |
elmlang | general | What do you mean by templates? | 2019-01-09T11:05:33.887700 | Bert |
elmlang | general | I've just hit our old friend
```

*again*, this time when just creating a new, pretty basic module and trying to use it. Again, is there any progress on this? I have no clue how to get around it. Its such a painful bug and I've got it on every 0.19 project I have.. Its really frustrating | 2019-01-09T16:46:55.890100 | Jenice |
elmlang | general | I shudder to think how many new elm users hit this bug and then bail out altogether | 2019-01-09T16:47:38.890400 | Jenice |
elmlang | general | Is the agreed upon solution to do `rm -rf elm-stuff/0.19.0/`? This is my go-to fix. | 2019-01-09T16:51:47.890900 | Leoma |
elmlang | general | Unfortunately that doesn't fix it forme | 2019-01-09T16:52:11.891400 | Jenice |
elmlang | general | I’ve also seen to try elm make without the --debug flag | 2019-01-09T16:53:07.892200 | Asha |
elmlang | general | I'm also curious about this, I've never run into the issue and we've done 2 or 3 elm sites for clients in 0.19 since it was released :thinking_face: | 2019-01-09T16:55:47.892800 | Teddy |
elmlang | general | Turning off the debugger does fix it, but I personally find the debugger so invaluable when developing it makes life really really difficult | 2019-01-09T16:59:49.894500 | Jenice |
