I am not sabra. I am just saying he has a lot of info on postmodern on his site, and he is probably also maintain the repo now. I am subscribed to the repo feed.

sabrac: Hi, I was wondering if you still intend to publish a Roadmap for postmodern
4:40:16
sabrac
I have to say that skiddo's request for a postgresql installer in lisp probably will not be on the roadmap
4:43:44
PuercoPop
sabrac: Not particularly. One thing that I've been trying to tackle is #70 but the DAO code seems mostly needlessly complex, but then again synthesizing new methods with the MOP is not something straightforward in my experience. One thing that would be good, in theory, would be a way to extend the client authentication mechanisms but that is not something that I need. Mostly want to see how could I chip in.

PuercoPop: One thing that nyef was complaining about some years ago was transaction failures on connections and reconnections. Ever dealt with reconnections in usocket?

sabrac
I looked at #70, but there was no immediately obvious solution so set it aside for the moment. I am not sure that I really understand #111

One stupid question: I could do: '(a b c) or even (quote a b c). Is there something similar (in English words) for `(a b c) (quasiquoting)?
5:00:11
PuercoPop
sabrac: yeah, I was thinking of porting a PoC wiki from disk to a 'document' store using JSONB.
5:08:57
sabrac
PuercoPop: ok. Give the jsonb support some thought. I will try to get the draft roadmap out in the next 48 hours along with a bunch of s-sql stuff that got triggered in the process of fixing #68

And you can’t do (quasiquote (a b ,c)) since phase quasiquote form requires to be at read time
5:40:02

If you need to do something like that you should just think about what the quasiquotation is trying to do. In that case, (list 'a 'b c) or one of the other dozen ways to get the same result.

skidd0 - maybe look how chocolatey does progresql installation, you might use their tool or their scripts - they are windows based, if you need it for linux you can look at gentoo's portage scripts and for mac os x you can look how brew does it. Still not ideal solution but kinda automated one.

What is used in common lisp as a log/data aggregation tool that is analagous to apache kafka?
10:09:23
drduck`
I see this but I wondered if there was anything that was a fully featured interface https://github.com/yehohanan7/cl-kafka
10:10:12
drduck`
I guess syslog is kinda sorta like kafka without the power of querying against the centralized data?

I'd like to create a web service in common lisp that can be targeted by a web application and mobile application. What would be the appropriate library that would help the most for this?
12:58:37

I was wondering if caveman would be what I wanted, but it looks like it looks like it is biased towards/built for just web applications.

https://github.com/fukamachi/caveman#generating-a-project-skeleton and https://github.com/fukamachi/caveman#templates and https://github.com/fukamachi/caveman#structured-querypost-parameters namely
13:05:55
drduck_2
I guess I don't have to use those portions. I will just play with it and see if I can configure it, unless there are any suggestions.
13:08:59

drduck_2: I would do the thing myself. Why do you want to rely on dependencies that may or may not match your needs. If you're new you don't even know what you need! Develop it yourself and see what your need is!
13:12:51
drduck_2
Well I'd like to get it up and running as quickly as possible. Building it myself would be a humongous time sink, I think.
13:13:33
drduck_2
If there's a library, like Flask or something, for common lisp where I can use it as a web service framework and not a web application framework, that would be great.
13:32:59
drduck_2
Does caveman force you to couple the web service with the browser webapp? I thought from the looks of it, it did. I may be totally wrong, and it's just providing options incase you decide to.

I want to have a web service i can hit from mobile and browser applications and not be restricted to one
13:35:52
drduck_2
bah i'll just download it and see what happens. i could be talking complete nonsense right now and it be the right oold for the job
