ogd sethvincent this is the board im using http://www.ebay.com/itm/NodeMcu-Lua-WiFi-Internet-Things-Amica-V2-Development-Board-ESP8266-12E-CP2102-/121918511437?hash=item1c62e8d94d:g:EmwAAOSwv9hW38hM
ogd sethvincent and i flash them with https://github.com/thingsSDK/flasher.js
ogd sethvincent and https://github.com/espruino/EspruinoWebIDE to get a repl (i do it over wifi)
ogd: if you're still doing the espruino / adventuretron thing i'd be down to hack on it and keep it up to date with adventuretron changes
I tried to get things a little more organized in the interest of moving minidocs to feature-complete status
any suggestions on what to do instead?
just need it to happen once on loading
would the remote module help in this case? http://electron.atom.io/docs/api/remote/
I'm extracting the core of ipywidgets out of jupyter to provide a flexible API for allowing people to update a model front <---> back
ooh, and @mathisonian if you happen to have time as well
:)
e.g. if you are doing patching, are you imagining automated diffing to happen internally or is that something that woudl require structured updates on the kernal side as well
ipywidgets has mechanics for it
They do it over the comms channel
Which is a wide-open pandora's box escape hatch in jupyter
I'd like to prescribe that the diffing is done on the kernel side
What would you want it to be on the python side (or other backend)?
We can always make helpers per kernel to send the right messages and make it easier
IPython.models.update(model_id, ...)
IPython.models.set(model_id, ...)
I'm not a total fan of the naming there
i’d be okay with being a little verbose if it provides a way to minimize data transfer
this transform thing -
i’m out of the loop i think, is it something that already exists within nteract?
Yeah
and shove it the data that comes from the backend
that seems pretty reasonable
