[elm-discuss] Re: Type Alias Question

My guess is that this has to do with the strange way in which your "Foo" - like in any record type alias - *Foo is at the same time a Type as well as constructor*. So Foo is a type, that you can use in type annotations and signatures, but also a function with the signature "String -> Foo",

[elm-discuss] Type Alias Question

Hi, new to Elm and just playing around. I'm trying to understand why the following doesn't work. > type alias Foo = { bar : String } > type alias Derp = Foo > Foo "bar" { bar = "bar" } : Repl.Foo > Derp "herp" -- NAMING ERROR -- repl-temp-000.elm

It's actually true, Rupert. Earlier with Josh from daily drips we discovered that adding gives it a place to put the light-dom. I haven't mentioned it yet, because it only works for shady dom if NO shady dom is being used :/ Simply put, the template must look exactly like this . It's not

[elm-discuss] Re: Task.perform in 0.18?

Ahh, see that there, the return type of `Scroll.toTop` is `Task.Task Dom.Error ()`, this in this case also change `Task.perform` to `Task.attempt`. :-) On Friday, January 6, 2017 at 1:59:06 PM UTC-7, Rex van der Spuy wrote: > > Thanks Overmind! > > I've done as you suggested and removed one

[elm-discuss] Re: Task.perform in 0.18?

Task.perform now takes a task that cannot fail (hence the 'Never' in its type). So I have no clue what your Scroll.toTop call returns as a type, but if it cannot fail (Never on the error condition type) then just remove one of your `(always NoOp)` calls, else change `Task.perform` call into

[elm-discuss] Intended usage of -- comments (and elm-format)

What is the intended usage of -- comments in Elm? I'm used to using them as line end comments in other languages and/or lightweight comment lines all to themselves but elm-format tends to respond to them by more radically adjusting the code layout which suggests either that their intended usage

There is this somewhat dirty hack you could use: Supply a one-liner of javascript to an Elm style attribute. Using `attribute` from the `Html.Attributes` library. You could make your own helper that does the redirect: redirectTo : String -> Attribute msg redirectTo destinationUrl =
