(how) does cix support custom properties/CSS variables? ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/var() )

can I make it swallow arbitrary strings somehow?

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

well, you can, but it ain't pretty

raw("something here") is usable as a value and will generate something here

but if you can open an issue, ideally with a short summary of what's required to support at least the most useful features of css vars, I can look into it ;)

ousado

@ousado

@back2dos awesome, thanks! I think the vars are simple substitutions, and the only "feature" (that I've seen) is a fallback in case the given name evaluates to something invalid. as in var( --my-var, fallbackvalue )

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

so ... allow --ident in value place and allow for a var builtin and that's it?

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

Might want something to declare/update a var too? (so --ident: any value)

Wait, you need to allow var(--ident) / var(--ident, any fallback value, including comma) in value place, not --ident

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

well, --ident: value is incidentally supported, because property names starting with dash are allowed for the purpose of vendor prefixed things

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

anyway, I suppose it's best I read up on it ... seems like these days it's pretty standard anyway ^^

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

Didn't prevent me from forgetting about fallback in haxe-react-css xD

ousado

@ousado

@back2dos at least that's what the MDN documentation suggests

hey guys. I need to make controlled var out of editable that comes from another place. My thinking was to use shared but I can't get it to work. My example:

class ModelA implements Model {
  @:editable var yo:String;
}

class ModelB implements Model {
   @:shared var yo:String;
   @:constant var view:RenderResult = hxx(<MyView yo = $yo/>);
}

class MyView extends View {
   @:controlled var yo:String;
}

var modelA = new ModelA({yo: "default yo"});
var modelB = new ModelB({yo: modelA.yo});

what did I miss?

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

seems fine

what happens? ^^

serjek

@serjek

in fact variable that I'm trying to proxy is MyEnum and here is what I get:
MyEnum should be Null<coconut.data.Variable<MyEnum>> at the line where I create instance of modelB

serjek

@serjek

coconut data is latest from git

serjek

@serjek

perhaps, my haxe is outdated: 4.1.5

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

ah ... yeah ... you'll have to do new ModelB({yo: modelA.observables.yo });

can only make this nicer if this is resolved: HaxeFoundation/haxe#10348

serjek

@serjek

ok cool that worked and I can stay with my good old 4.1.5. can not upgrade because of this: haxetink/tink_core#143

serjek

@serjek

another one: can I pass controlled var to children and control it from there?

serjek

@serjek

to make things worse, value i want to proxy is the enum abstract(String). but nvm, i believe it’s an edge case and easy to make a workaround.

Kevin Leung

@kevinresol

you can manually cast the NEVER as a workaround for now: (Promise.NEVER:Promise<Int>)

another one: can I pass controlled var to children and control it from there?

ousado

@ousado

in @:computed and @:loaded, is $last always the result of the last evaluation, or is it the result of the last evaluation that had a different value?

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

it should be the last evaluation, no matter what

(for @:loadedthe last successfully completed one)

if you do return the same value though, then the change propagation stops there (i.e. if nothing else changed, any binding or view depending on the value will bail out)

serjek

@serjek

thanks Kevin!

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

With

class MyModel implements Model {
  @:editable var foo:String = null;
}

I should be able to do that in a view, right?

@:state var model = new MyModel();
// ...
model.foo.set("bar");

I'm getting String has no field set

ousado

@ousado

@kLabz I think you just assign to @:editable

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

From outside? (edit: indeed, works; thanks)

Also, my components don't re-render when a @:state changes (or its observable fields) changes, somehow Oo

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

Ok that was because of a weird setup

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

well, if it's likely enough to run into, I wouldn't mind a ticket ... to the degree that it's possible and not obstructive, coconut is supposed to tell you that something looks unobservable

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

WIP masochist project o/

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

what's avalonia? ^^

is it https://avaloniaui.net/ ?

does that mean coconut actually builds on hxcs? :D

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

Yep it's the one

And yeah seems like it builds on hxcs now x)

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

nice :)

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

I can't get much more than that atm though xD

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

well, it's almost enough to make a counter example, which is the true purpose of all UI frameworks!

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

Nope it breaks with a view xD tried the counter :P

Juraj Kirchheim

@back2dos

ohno

Rudy Ges

@kLabz

Eh, got it to run but now I need to fix timers x)
