#guile

Today on #SystemCrafters Live, we'll experiment with Spritely Goblins, a Guile Scheme library that provides a distributed programming model for writing secure, asynchronous code that can be called either locally or across a network.

Let's try it out to see if it might be a good fit for the Spring Lisp Game Jam next week!

Plain language English summaries of the most important points (as I see them) by the German IT security agency for #software developers.

With short practical answers how to implement them in your work when using #GNU Guile #Scheme.

This is absolutely non-official. Read the original document if you want to know details or assure your legal department.

It’s a work in progress. See the TODOs:

#programming

The accidental exploration of today: I can prevent auto-setting of non-removable procedure-name in let/define binding by wrapping lambda call into identity or some other function.

I still don't know how procedure name is set and why it's non-removable.

Fibers in #guile provides a nice way to compute a function up to a timeout:

Comments/critiques welcome

byggsteg is the free as in freedom #cicd orchestrator written in #guile #scheme (#lisp)

v1.1.7 released - enhanced stability, improved UI, added more icons for friendlier UX

byggsteg aims to develop a suite of functionalities to allow engineers to deliver software quicker and with less friction. It allows you to define your pipelines directly in Lisp (as a lambda expression) allowing infinite extensibility.

I came up with the idea that it's handy to re-run tests after every eval. This tremendously reduces the feedback loop.

It's useful for TDD: you just write a few failing tests, modify the code that doesn't work yet and get the immediate feedback if they became green or still failing.

I bet it has much more use cases.

Later I realized that it's called Continuous Testing. This is a so good fit for Lisp and similar languages with highly interactive development environments.

@428 I think #GuileScheme was specifically designed to be a Lisp extension language...?

#Guile

After a few month of RnD, the testing library I work on is finally got to the point, where the design seems reasonable and settled. Now the easy part - carefully implement all the missing bits and integration with IDE.

Grr using guix as a package manager on #Archlinux isn't the most fun, so I added the guix guile modules path to an emacs instance then called emacs in a guix shell. Geiser-guile REPL sees the modules*.scm but the modules don't run ... hmm ... #guix , #guile

@mark @glitzersachen there are actually active projects to use #GuileScheme with #Emacs. I don't have the details handy, but I vaguely remember there was a recent conference with a project to build with scheme and another to use #Guile as the extension language.

Streaming about testing library for Scheme, NLnet grant, its integration into Arei/Ares Guile IDE and some library architecture design thoughts in a couple hours. It's inspired by clojure.test and junit, but still quite schemy.

The next time libcucks start defending NixOS, read this, dipshits. NixOS is associated, and some way or another, backed by Palantir and Anduril.

I find it a bit ironic: I can't write a Scheme macro, which pre-evaluates arguments for arbitrary form. Because I can't determine if form is a macro or procedure application and thus can't handle those use cases differently.

The #guile #lsp server just landed to #guix.

Happy hacking !

I always find myself split when I look at the #guix home page https://guix.gnu.org. I feel like it 1) misses selling the declarative/functional/transactional power of #guix, 2) misses selling #guix as an open system as well as supporting pure-#gnu installations, and 3) don't like to see the embedded domain-specific languages thing as the selling point is that #guile is a general-purpose, infinitely powerful configuration mechanism. I'm also not a big fan of the spaced-out feel of the site.

I keep learning a lot about Scheme hygienic macros and macroexpander and today we talked about using macro as identifiers in arbitrary position of s-expression, syntax parameters, variable transformers and identifier-syntax helper.

Anyone got any clue how to get the current user's home directory in Guile/Scheme? Reading the reference manual and searching the web doesn't help.
