[julia-users] name of current executable (similar to Bash $0)

I believe what you want is the constant `PROGRAM_FILE`. http://julia.readthedocs.io/en/latest/stdlib/constants/#Base.PROGRAM_FILE

Re: [julia-users] Re: Private Forks of Julia Repositories

Maybe Playground.jl will fit your use case. It works similarly to Python's virtualenv which allows having multiple versions of the same package to be installed at the same time. https://github.com/Rory-Finnegan/Playground.jl

[julia-users] Private Forks of Julia Repositories

If you don't need to have both versions of the package available at the same time then I would recommend using a single Git repo with multiple remotes. With this setup you can push to your private remote for experiments and later push to the public remote when your ready to share your work.

Re: [julia-users] Convert Method or LambdaInfo into an Expression

> > It would be easy enough to write a macro A good idea but in my use case I want to be able to turn almost any method into an expression including those in Base which I can't easily add a macro to. Look at code_lowered Thanks, I'll make sure to check that out. I was looking at code_typed

[julia-users] Convert Method or LambdaInfo into an Expression

I doubt this is possible but is there a way of creating an expression from a Method or LambaInfo? Something like: julia> m = first(methods(open, (AbstractString,))) open(fname::AbstractString) at iostream.jl:99 julia> Expr(m) ERROR: TypeError: Expr: expected Symbol, got Method in

Re: [julia-users] Re: Julia command line usage: tool versus library

There does exist a way to do this in Julia 0.5 using the PROGRAM_FILE constant: Given the file: "example.jl" if abspath(PROGRAM_FILE) == @__FILE__ println("Running file") else println("Included file") end

[julia-users] Creating docstrings using code generation

I was hoping to generate several redundant docstrings using code generation. Unfortunately I have run into an issue where $name isn't being replaced in the docstring: julia> using Base.Dates julia> for name in (:year, :month, :day, :hour, :minute, :second, : millisecond) @eval begin

[julia-users] Overwriting Functions

I've been working on a package Mocking.jl which allows developers to temporarily overwrite a method in order to facilitate testing. I've got everything working pretty well with the exception of the creation of a new macro which is suppose to ensure that

[julia-users] Announcing TimeZones.jl

The TimeZones.jl package has been around for a while but now it has a functional interface. The latest v0.1.0 release includes: - New types including: `ZonedDateTime`, `FixedTimeZone`, and `VariableTimeZone` - "Calendrical" `ZonedDateTime` math (see documentation) - Local system
