Rsass 0.28.0 released

Posted 2023-07-09 12:45. Tagged , , , , .

It is time to announce rsass, rsass-macros and rsass-cli version 0.28.0. Almost half a year has gone since the last release, and as usual, there is a bunch of breaking changes and a bunch of improvements.

A small symbolic milestone is that 2/3 of the tests in sass-spec now passes (up from 66.5 % in the previous release to 66.8 % now). Also, I have reduced the number of cases where rsass fails with the wrong output even further.

My thanks to new contributor Grey Hill.

Command line interface url

Posted 2023-02-05 23:25. Tagged , , .

I wrote a little command-line interface for sending a http request and getting the response. I call the package url-cli, and the command itself is url. It has sub-commands for the different http methods.

If you have a rust toolchain installed, you can get it by cargo install. I haven’t made any binary packages yet.

:; cargo install url-cli
[... building, installing ...]
:; url get https://rasmus.krats.se/2023/url-cli.en
<!doctype html>
[... and all the rest of the html for this web page ...]

Rsass 0.27.0 released

Posted 2023-01-17 21:06. Tagged , , , , .

Again, after almost four months since the last release, it is time to announce rsass 0.27.0. There is a bunch of breaking changes and a bunch of improvements.

This time, one change may seem drastic: The rsass crate no longer contains the command-line program rsass. Instead, that is now provided by a separate rsass-cli crate. So you no longer have to enable a “commandline” feature, instead you can install the command line interface with:

:; cargo install rsass-cli

There is also a new rsass-macros crate. Read on into the Macros section for that.

Rsass 0.26.0 released

Posted 2022-09-18 20:04. Tagged , , , , .

More than three months after the last release, is is now the time to announce rsass 0.26.0. There is a bunch of breaking changes and a bunch of improvements. The changelog has the whole (too long) list.

But this time, some of the changes may go a bit deeper. As usual, the breaking changes is breaking mainly to users who in some way modify the global context from rust code, maybe by providing their own builtin functions or maybe just by inserting a global variable.

Also this time, there is an improved way of calling ructe from a cargo build.rs program, see the Cargo section below.

A compiling template system in Rust

Posted 2016-10-07 18:32. Tagged , , , .

When developing web applications, it is often useful to have a template system. Something that lets you write generic versions of web pages, that the application can fill with the specific content for each page it should show.

There exists lots of “languages” to write such templates, such as mustache, jinja2, and play 2 scala templates (twirl). Most fits very well with a dynamic language, where you can get properties from an object, or even call a method, by its name in a plain string. In a statically compiled language, the actual names of fields and methods are not relevant, and generally not present, after compilation. This makes a “dynamic” template language a hard match for a compiling language such as rust. So why not try to create a better match?

Chordlab: chopro till pdf

Publicerad 2008-02-12 00:15. Senast uppdaterad 2010-10-20 05:55. Taggat , , , , .

Chordlab är ett kommandoradsprogram jag skrev för att göra pdf-sångböcker från choprofiler.

Normal användning är att ge chordlab en lista med choprofiler, var och en med en sång (eller flera). Chordlab skapar en pdf med en sida för varje sång.

Uppdaterat 2010-10-20: För att göra chordlab mer inbjudande, och för att jag inte har lyckats något vidare med att driva ett publikt monotone­repository, har jag nu flyttat chordlab till github. Projektet heter kaj/chordlab.

Some simple command-line utilities for mail management over imap.

Since imap is a nice protocol to handle email messages independent of MUA, some functionality is wanted MUA-independently. imaputil is a few simple perl programs to run in a command line context.

These utilities depend on an external program to connect to the server and take care of the Kerberos and/or SSL stuff. I use imtest from the cyrus-imap package, but it should be easily replaceable.

Update 2007-12-18 07:50: A new release: imaputil 0.6 is on the ftp server.

StyleScript

Posted 1998-12-14 12:00. Last updated 2003-12-28 12:00. Tagged , , , .

An open-source HTML / SGML printer that uses CSS2.

StyleScript reads a HTML / SGML file, local or from an URL, and writes a Postscript file. I use the sp library, so only files that names a dtd and conforms to it is supported.

If your document passes the W3C validator without errors, it should be printable.

Update 2003-12-28: StyleScript is dead, viva Passepartout

A small web server serving “301 Moved Permanently” or “302 Moved Temporarily” to all requests.

Update 2003-07-17: Relase 0.3 of webredirect is out on the ftp server. The main news in this release are:

Updated the C++ language usage, so this version works with gcc 3.x (and should work with other standard-compliant C++ compilers).

XkBiff

XkBiff is my attempt at a biff program that understands kpop. When there is mail, it pops up another window featuring the From and Subject fields of the mails.

Update 2002-07-09: The XkBiff project is discontinued and no longer maintained, mainly because I don’t even use POP anymore. If you want to use it, you probably have to fix it as well.

Unix facilities for C++ programmers

The aim of ++Unix is to allow C++ programs to use Unix facilities, such as sockets, whose interface includes a lot of pointers and other low-level stuff, and might vary on different kinds of Unix, in a nice, simple and consistent way.

One of the goals: There should be no need for preprocessor conditionals (#if) other than as include guards in a C++ programs that uses ++Unix.
