Compile issue

[capocasa]

Wanted to give it a whirl!

nim-taskpools seems to be needed as dependency.

Then got:

src/layout/layout.nim(54, 38) Error: type mismatch: got <HTMLElement, int literal(0)>

Maybe not everything has been committed and pushed? Consider a stableish branch for people who want to try it.

[xTrayambak]

Yep, haha. I should really make a stable branch because main is just full of experimental stuff. My bad, I'll fix this today itself and create a devel branch for my development work

[xTrayambak]

I just looked at the code and that's some legacy code before the ferushtml migration. Just remove the 0 and it will compile, once I come back from school I'll push a fix.

[xTrayambak]

Oh, and yeah. We need both nim-taskpools and weave since for some reason one does threading properly and one does parallelism properly. I really wanna tackle that some day but unfortunately that day is not today. I'm sorry for the problem, by the way.

[capocasa]

Sure that's great- what I meant was that nim-taskpools is missing from the ferus.nimble file.

[xTrayambak]

Oh, woops. That's embarassing.

[xTrayambak]

This is now fixed. Ferus will now compile successfully. Thanks for bringing this to my knowledge!

[capocasa]

Cool!

Now I'm getting, in the main branch:

src/dom/dom.nim(13, 45) Error: undeclared identifier: 'Butterfly'

[xTrayambak]

Ah, I think migration of the butterfly code to ferushtml may be causing this. Sorry! For now, you have to use the experimental branch. This is a really silly issue and hopefully I'll fix it by tomorrow. Thing is that this is my first project that's gained some level of attention and I'm still learning how to properly maintain stuff. Again, I'm sorry.

[xTrayambak]

Are you able to run it in main and experimental branches now? Please let me know.

[capocasa]

Don't sweat it!

Nope, still getting src/dom/dom.nim(13, 45) Error: undeclared identifier: 'Butterfly' in both branches.

I tried adding import butterfly to the top of src/dom/dom.nim and then it works. Not sure what the difference might be between your and my repo.

[xTrayambak]

I had fixed this, then me being me decided to accidentally reset experimental with main and think it was fixed the entire time. Pushing a fix by tomorrow and merging main with experimental!

[DiThi]

That import was still missing in experimental, and there was still missing dependencies (firejail I think). You should empty your nimble cache from time to time to see if you forgot to add something to the nimble file.

[xTrayambak]

Can you please confirm if this still happens? I've cleared my nimble cache and both the branches compile successfully. Butterflies are to be removed from Ferus as ferushtml will use its own, and so will the future feruscss parser (still working on it).

[xTrayambak]

Those are due to the new breaking changes in FerusHTML. The main branch should fix this.

[Daeraxa]

Just tried building it myself and got stuck here. Any ideas?

[xTrayambak]

Ah, I just realised. I forgot to update the instructions. I'll update em today. For now, run this:

nimble install
nimble productionBuild
