Re: Where do I need to put a pm6 file?

Starting from the end: there's no need to use github, panda can install stuff just fine from a local directory :) As for the directory layout, https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/nom/docs/module_management.md is probably the best source to learn how it works under the hood. Hope this helps,

Re: Where do I need to put a pm6 file?

Yes, that works too. But I was just trying to understand how the directory layout works. In particular I was trying to reproduce what panda does, since I didn't want to use github.com just to install a test module. I found no documentation about this, so I tried this mailing list. On May 1, 2016

Re: DBIish: Why can't I interpolate variable holding database name?

Right - use parenthesis in colon-pair parameters to get the variable inside. You could use :database<<$db>> to make it like a double-quoted string. Or my favorite is to use regular => as in database => $db --Brock On May 1, 2016 09:13, "Mathieu Gagnonn" wrote: Hello James,

Re: Where do I need to put a pm6 file?

To expand on why putting the file in a directory doesn't Just Work, and why so much magic needs to be there for it to work: loading modules is a complicated thing in Perl 6, and long story short, if you want to be able to have multiple versions installed and loadable at the same time, you need

Re: Where do I need to put a pm6 file?

I recommend putting your module into a 'lib' dir near your script. Then in your script add: use lib 'lib'; That way you don't have to add the -l param. On May 1, 2016 09:21, "Fernando Santagata" wrote: > Hello, > > I'm trying to write a module and make a program

Where do I need to put a pm6 file?

Hello, I'm trying to write a module and make a program load and use it. Since this code: perl6 -e 'say $*REPO' outputs: inst#/home/nando/.perl6 I thought that putting the .pm6 file in there would be enough. So, since my module is A::B, I put B.pm6 into ~/.perl6/A . But when I run a test

DBIish: Why can't I interpolate variable holding database name?

Yesterday I made my first attempt at using any library in a Perl6 program -- specifically, DBIish. The following succeeded in establishing a connection to a Postgresql database named 'hierarchy' on the same disk as Perl6: # $ cat dbiish_connect.pl6 #!/usr/bin/env perl6 use DBIish; my
