This enables arbitrary DNS lookups (with the caveat that RRDATAs are
currently not deserialised into a record-type-specific format).
An error condition has been defined for error-responses from the HTTP
server which provides interactive restarts for attempting a new call
with different parameters.
Implements support for the compresion scheme used in binary DNS
messages.
This makes it possible to decode messages entirely, but not yet
actually resolve the labels to their "real" values.
All qnames are stored with file-offsets pointing at the position at
which their reading started, which enables the implementation of a
function to resolve pointers internally.
Adds a struct that represents QNAMEs, tracks the stream offset at
which the QNAME parsing began and makes it possible to resolve
pointers inside of the QNAME.
Note that resolving pointers needs to happen *after* the call to
lisp-binary currently. It might be possible to implement this inside
of lisp-binary in the future by switching on the top two bits of the
qname field, but since this is happening *inside* of a reader function
I'm not currently sure how to implement it.
This uses lisp-binary to define serialisation types for the DNS
messages defined by RFC 1035.
Currently the compression scheme used for QNAMEs is not supported,
hence deserialisation of even simple records fails after the header
and question sections are read.
Adds a package definition file and moves the current client into
client.lisp
Note that the client is not working at all at this commit as this is a
work-in-progress snapshot.
The previous commit that adds Java code is part of a larger project intended to
use Nix to package Clojure. I'd like to build something similar to @tazjin's
buildLisp except for Clojure instead of for Common Lisp. Once building for both
ecosystems is similarly easy, it will be easier for me to compare the two
languages. Right now `buildLisp` is so good that it attracts me to Common Lisp
even when I don't know the language.
Add an example of two java files, Main.java and Another.java, where Main.java
depends on Another.java. This is part of a larger example of attempting to use
Nix to package these.
Also ignoring the *.class files that `javac <filename>` outputs.
Removing the default.nix that I used to attempt to build prove, a Common Lisp
unit testing library. Also removing the lisp module with the unit tests
themselves.
`dired-display-file` opens the file in another window but does not focus that
window. `dired-find-file-other-window` does what `dired-display-file` does
except it focuses that window.
This function builds a version of SBCL using `nix.buildLisp` and points `sly` to
the built executable. The result is a REPL with access to your project's
dependencies, which is quite useful. One drawback at the moment is that if new
dependencies are added to the project, I think I need to rebuild SBCL using nix
and restart sly.
After some toil, I have a working proof-of-concept blog. The idea is simple:
write blog posts in markdown and store the posts in the `./posts`
directory. Then use the server and `pandoc` to convert these markdown files into
HTML at request time. I'm using nix to package everything together. It's far
from perfect, but it works at the moment, which is encouraging.
All of this is still a work-in-progress. Just checking in my work.
Also:
- Write function `render-post` to convert a markdown file into HTML. This is
still a work-in-progress since we need to capture the output and not just have
it printed to *standard-out*.
- Return dummy data in /posts
- We need the markdown files, to be in the /nix/store and the server needs to be
aware of there location.
- Since we're dependending on `pandoc`, our server needs to know about it too.
For both of these cases -- especially for the latter case -- I imagine there may
be a more idiomatic way of doing this.
While it's probably a good idea to assign epics to new stories,
depending on the methodology used by the team not everything may
warrant being attached to an epic. E.g. one off task and what
not.
Attempting to write a blog where:
- The server is Common Lisp. Why? I'd like to learn Common Lisp.
- The blog posts can be written in Markdown.
- The package is developed and deployed using Nix.
Most of this is a learning exercise. The blog itself is something that I'd like
to use instead of Medium and other forums.
Create a third_party subdirectory and a third_party/lisp. This directory layout
resembles and is inspired by the layout of Google's mono-repo, Google3. @tazjin
borrowed this idea from Google and I'm borrowing the idea from him.
Using @tazjin's depot/default.nix to bootstrap this project. I'll be borrowing
his Nix idioms until I better understand Nix and have preferences of my own.
