| 2013-03-05 06:01:27 utc | nightmann | what is catchall? |
| 2013-03-05 06:03:04 utc | nightmann | nvm |
| 2013-03-05 06:03:22 utc | jmettraux | nightmann: hello, it's a trick to catch all the workitems for undefined participant [names] in a storage participant (or whatever participant implementation is passed as arg to "catchall") |
| 2013-03-05 21:02:36 utc | nightmann | is there an accepted idiom for polling a url? |
| 2013-03-05 21:03:05 utc | nightmann | cursor and rewind? |
| 2013-03-05 21:19:37 utc | jmettraux | nightmann: hello, if there is no help here, the mailing list can help: http://groups.google.com/group/openwferu-users |
| 2013-03-05 21:19:54 utc | jmettraux | there is no "accepted idiom" for polling urls |
| 2013-03-05 21:20:52 utc | jmettraux | some people use a cursor, other wrap the polling in a participant along with the work done in collaboration with the URL |
| 2013-03-05 21:38:32 utc | nightmann | is one generally more efficient than the other? |
| 2013-03-05 21:38:46 utc | nightmann | or is it highly situational |
| 2013-03-05 21:39:03 utc | jmettraux | the embedding is more efficient than the cursor / pdef construct |
| 2013-03-05 21:41:11 utc | nightmann | and the embedding won't cause the worker to block from processing other expressions unless do_not_thread is specifically set |
| 2013-03-05 21:41:34 utc | jmettraux | factor in the GIL |
| 2013-03-05 21:42:08 utc | nightmann | right |
| 2013-03-05 21:47:38 utc | nightmann | it would be great to add https://github.com/ifad/ruote-postgres to the list of storages |
| 2013-03-05 21:47:52 utc | nightmann | is there any way I can help with that? |
| 2013-03-05 21:48:46 utc | jmettraux | I asked them permission to do it and they haven't yet replied |
| 2013-03-05 21:49:58 utc | jmettraux | well, let's add it right now |
| 2013-03-05 21:50:52 utc | nightmann | have you checked out https://github.com/ohler55/oj ? |
| 2013-03-05 21:51:36 utc | jmettraux | no sorry, didn't know about it |
| 2013-03-05 21:53:47 utc | jmettraux | I'll try and add it to rufus-json |
| 2013-03-05 21:59:21 utc | jmettraux | updated http://ruote.rubyforge.org/configuration.html and http://ruote.rubyforge.org/source.html |
| 2013-03-05 22:01:01 utc | nightmann | http://ruote.rubyforge.org/exp/concurrent_iterator.html |
| 2013-03-05 22:01:18 utc | nightmann | is the section for ':to_field and :to_f, :to_var and :to_v, :to' supposed to have formatting? |
| 2013-03-05 22:05:46 utc | jmettraux | fixed via https://github.com/jmettraux/ruote/commit/824c7431d4beb6a434acc576f2d2842ec3691c34 thanks! |
| 2013-03-05 22:07:33 utc | nightmann | ah, it's auto generated via docs |
| 2013-03-05 22:07:46 utc | nightmann | it seems to have messed up the layout, though |
| 2013-03-05 22:08:21 utc | jmettraux | renders fine for me |
| 2013-03-05 22:10:26 utc | jmettraux | safari on snoleo and chrome on win7 |
| 2013-03-05 22:16:11 utc | jmettraux | https://github.com/jmettraux/rufus-json/issues/2 |
| 2013-03-05 22:17:56 utc | nightmann | awesome, i'll take a stab at it later today |
| 2013-03-05 22:18:39 utc | nightmann | the layout looks fine now after a refresh |
| 2013-03-05 22:19:24 utc | nightmann | (chrome on osx) |
| 2013-03-05 22:19:39 utc | jmettraux | the common sense road would maybe be to ditch rufus-json and go with multi-json, but hey rufus-json was there first |
| 2013-03-05 22:22:44 utc | nightmann | i wouldn't be opposed to that.. |
| 2013-03-05 22:23:18 utc | nightmann | only because many other libraries already include multi_json.. would be one less library to require |
| 2013-03-05 22:23:29 utc | jmettraux | +1 |
| 2013-03-05 22:23:51 utc | nightmann | maybe a load check and fallback to rufus-json? |
| 2013-03-05 22:23:56 utc | nightmann | *check for multijson |
| 2013-03-05 22:25:22 utc | jmettraux | I'll think about it (been thinking about it for a while) |
| 2013-03-05 22:26:01 utc | jmettraux | I like to have rufus-json around, I don't have to beg for multi-json support when shit hits the fan |
| 2013-03-05 22:32:01 utc | nightmann | there's always the option of forking |
| 2013-03-05 22:35:00 utc | jmettraux | yes, gem 'multi-json', :git => 'myfork' vs gem 'rufus-json', :git => 'master' |

| 2013-03-06 00:43:51 utc | nightmann | are there any guidelines for deciding whether to use params, fields, or variables? |
| 2013-03-06 00:45:02 utc | jmettraux | params are participant specific, fields flow with the workitems, variables are similar to local vars in imperative languages |
