Dill's new %logs endpoint can be used to receive system output as $told
nouns. Dill no longer prints system output itself, leaving the display
of it up to terminal handlers (or the runtime). For now, to maintain the
status quo, drum subscribes to dill %logs, and prints them inline in the
default session.
Dojo had also been incorrectly updated, assuming the type of
%lens-command changed to match. Since lens should only ever be used for
running commands on the local ship (and even that being contentious (; ),
we simply auto-fill the sole session id with the local ship name.
PR #5840 mostly fixed#1559, but introduced a new bug. before, you could safely `=dir` into a desk without a case, and it would use the nonexistent case `ud+0` as the beam for dojo state, and switch that out for da+now whenever it tries to resolve the current path. but this check causes it to fail, because `ud+0` is a nonexistent case. this uses he-beam to transform the beam in the conditional to see if the case is 0, and if it is, changes the case to da+now before it scries
This allows you to pass a thread directly into khan, instead of passing
a filename. This has several implications:
- The friction for using threads from an app is significantly lower.
Consider:
=/ shed
=/ m (strand ,vase)
;< ~ bind:m (poke:strandio [our %hood] %helm-hi !>('hi'))
;< ~ bind:m (poke:strandio [our %hood] %helm-hi !>('there'))
(pure:m !>('product'))
[%pass /wire %arvo %k %lard %base shed]
- These threads close over their subject, so you don't need to parse
arguments out from a vase -- you can just refer to them. The produced
value must still be a vase.
++ hi-ship
|= [=ship msg1=@t msg2=@t]
=/ shed
=/ m (strand ,vase)
;< ~ bind:m (poke:strandio [ship %hood] %helm-hi !>(msg1))
;< ~ bind:m (poke:strandio [ship %hood] %helm-hi !>(msg2))
(pure:m !>('product'))
[%pass /wire %arvo %k %lard %base shed]
- Inline threads can be added to the dojo, though this PR does not add
any sugar for this.
=strandio -build-file %/lib/strandio/hoon
=sh |= message=@t
=/ m (strand:rand ,vase)
;< ~ bind:m (poke:strandio [our %hood] %helm-hi !>('hi'))
;< ~ bind:m (poke:strandio [our %hood] %helm-hi !>(message))
(pure:m !>('product'))
|pass [%k %lard %base (sh 'the message')]
Implementation notes:
- Review the commits separately: the first is small and implements the
real feature. The second moves the strand types into lull so khan can
refer to them.
- In lull, I wanted to put +rand inside +khan, but this fails to that
issue that puts the compiler in a loop. +rand depends on +gall, which
depends on +sign-arvo, which depends on +khan. If +rand is in +khan,
this spins the compiler. The usual solution is to either move
everything into the same battery (very ugly here) or break the
recursion (which we do here).
Before this, the %watch to eth-watcher was happening before the %poke,
and so eth-watcher was responding with its entire history immediately.
This is bad because it takes a lot of memory to process that many logs,
and also because those logs are stale.
Now, the %poke happens first, which clears the history.
%kick is supposed to start back from the snapshot and move forward.
Without this, we would only fetch logs that we hadn't already fetched.
Thus, if you were up-to-date when you kicked, you would miss anything
that happened between the time the snapshot was taken and the present,
though you would see things after the present.
Also reverted lull change to make this a safer upgrade.
