[elm-discuss] ANN: CollectionsNg 1.0.0: Stable collections with working equality

[Robin Heggelund Hansen]

Just pushed CollectionsNg to package.elm-lang.org.

CollectionsNg contain implementations of Array, Dict and Set written in 
pure Elm. The implementations are API compatible with their namesakes in 
elm-core, all you have to do to use them is to use different namespaces.

These collections differ from those in elm-core with a stable Array 
implementation, and that equality (==) works as you would expect.

Re: [elm-discuss] Re: State of CSS in Elm

[Peter Damoc]

I went full XKCD on this one:
https://xkcd.com/927/

I played a little bit with "rtfeldman/elm-css" and I actually liked it but
looking at the source code and at the long list of issues and PRs, I
got discouraged about contributing.
It is a great library and probably the most tested and used in real world
scenarios.

I ended up spending most of today implementing my own little library
"pdamoc/elm-css" that is a blend of all three libraries.
It has a stylesheet declarative approach that is closer to
*rtfeldman/elm-css* than to* massung/elm-css* and a simple, String based
Declarations approach like in *seanhess/elm-style*.

It is alpha quality but I managed to port the code I wrote yesterday to it
and I'm planning to play with it for a few more days just for fun. :)

Just replying to my own comment:

I played around with elm-css for an afternoon, but realized it was adding 
more complexity than my (tiny) app was benefiting from.
So I'm back to using Elm's `style` function - nice and simple for now.
But elm-css is really excellent and it would be ideal for a large, 
traditional web site project.

Re: [elm-discuss] Re: Elm-Material Collaboration

[Joe Terry]

I am looking forward to working with your 
*elm-mdl *


It is very well thought out and managed. You are obviously an experienced 
and prepared OSS manager.

[elm-discuss] http request: How to access the whole response

[germain]

Hello,

To make a request,  I chain:
send  
: Settings 
 
-> Request 
 -> 
Task RawError 
 
Response 

and
fromJson 
 : 
Decoder a -> Task RawError 
 
Response 
 
-> Task Error 
 a

It works well (thanks to Simon) however I could not retrieve the whole 
response, only the value field of the response. Because the fromJson 
function only: 

   - Check that the status code is in the 200 range.
   - Make sure the response Value is a string.
   - Convert the string to Elm with the given Decoder.

Right?

type alias Response 
 = { 
status : Int , statusText : String , headers : Dict String String , url : 
String , value : Value 
 }

Is it possible to retrieve the whole response, for example to retrieve the 
status and the value fields?

Thanks,
Germain.

Awesome, thanks for the explanation and the links particularly.

[elm-discuss] What happened to all of the cool Elm examples at http://elm-lang.org/examples?

[peter . roehlen]

Hi all,


I originally posted this on the Elm sub-reddit but thought this might be a 
more appropriate venue for the question so I've deleted that post.  Here's 
my question:


I started dabbling in learning Elm early this year and then put it aside 
when I got stuck at some point. Lately I've started writing a little 
javascript browser game when I remembered there was a new version of Elm 
out recently and maybe I should try and write it in Elm. However I couldn't 
find anything in the new docs about drawing to "screen" etc and also it 
appeared as though most of the inspiring examples (tiny little programs 
that seemed to do amazing things for little effort) are no longer there. A 
trip to wayback machine confirmed my memory of what it used to look like (
https://web.archive.org/web/20160314202927/http://elm-lang.org/examples).


Are these examples gone for good? Are the language features they relied on 
no longer available?
