I'm now writing a JSON parser in Koka.

@volpeon time to make brdWoozy
@ShadowJonathan Vel already got us covered

I'm now writing a JSON parser in Koka. It's easier than I expected because it comes with very easy to use parser combinators

@volpeon I have a CS degree and I'm ashamed I don't know what most of this means -
Afterwards I'll do JSON-LD. Straight from baby mode to "oh god oh fuck, why am I doing this to myself"
Long term plan is an ActivityPub server which implements my ideas to fix microblogging (see my recent posts). If nobody picks them up, I'll just do it myself. Either it turns out they're bad and it was simply a fun little experiment, or they're good and maybe this prompts other servers to follow suit

@sun The documentation explains everything in more detail. I found it easy to understand, but I also worked with Haskell before and that permanently rewires your brain

@volpeon This language looks neat, thanks for mentioning it. -

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip Exactly.

@volpeon I have a CS degree and I'm ashamed I don't know what most of this means@sun @volpeon the only one that i'm not super clear what they mean is 'composable'
'composable'
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composability
stateless & self-contained apparently, though the wikipedia article needs love so it's probably a recent-ish term
and maybe 'ambient state'
'ambient state' seems pretty straightforward : just a background state

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip Exactly.
@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip BTW aber Vorsicht, mit zeitgemäßen Funktionen und einer anständigen App für iOS und Android könntest Du erfolgreicher sein als Mastodon.

Since Koka has no network stdlib yet, I'll have to implement URI and IRI handling first

Positive side effect compared to Haskell: I can unify the URI and IRI code because if there aren't any standards, I am the one making them :brdCool: In Haskell, they were in separate packages and it was kinda clunky

Well, guess what
The community stdlib has one and it's good, so they spared me the effort I was about to add unit tests for the IRI parser and found a nice JSON file with lots of test cases. I have JSON parsing, so that's good. What I don't have is a nice way to decode the generic json type to a specific type presentation, like with Aeson's FromJSON. I could still get all the test cases from the JSON file without it, but the rest of the application needs to handle JSON as well and then a decoder abstraction would be really good to have. So writing a decoder module is next :brdFlat:
edit: Never mind again. I keep missing stuff because I keep looking for Haskell-like solutions, but Koka is simply different.
