Re: [racket-users] How to tell if a package has been downloaded?

I agree with 3. Which is why I said that. :) I also agree with the rest. What I didn't say is, I imagined the service could be pkgs.racket-lang.org. When a package is hosted at GitHub, there is some data available for "git clones" at https://github.com/{user}/{repo}/graphs/traffic But: - I'

Re: [racket-users] How to tell if a package has been downloaded?

Could you give the catalog a URL from a link-shortening service, to get metrics? I strongly recommend not using a link-shortening service for this, because: 1. It's bad security.  Racket packages already have a security weakness, and a link-shortening service introduces another point of weakn

Re: [racket-users] How to tell if a package has been downloaded?

I think that the official story of the current package system is that you can't make a backward-incompatible change to a package, and if you want to, then you should make a new package with a new name. (Which I think is an annoying discouragement to third-party developers who are altruistically

Re: [racket-users] How to tell if a package has been downloaded?

Unlike the old PLaneT system, there's no download count. If I understand correctly, the catalog server simply gives local clients the URL -- such as https://github.com/dstorrs/racket-dstorrs-libs/tree/master -- and then `raco pkg install` directly contacts that URL. Could you give the catalog a U

[racket-users] How to tell if a package has been downloaded?

I've got a package suite named 'handy' up on the server. I suspect that no one aside from myself and my co-founder has ever downloaded it; I'd like to make a breaking change to one of the functions, which is fine as long as no one else is using it. Is there a way to tell if it's been downloaded a

Re: [racket-users] Sequences in Typed Racket?

Yep, this works. Of course, it assumes that fibonacci is memoized or something to give good performance. #lang typed/racket (require math (for-syntax syntax/parse)) (: check-nat (-> Any Any)) (define (check-nat n) (unless (exact-nonnegative-integer? n) (raise-argument-error 'in-fi

Re: [racket-users] Sequences in Typed Racket?

It looks like you copied the code incorrectly: it should be (module adapter racket ...), but you have (module adapter racket/stream ...). To get the special performance you are referring to, you don't want to make a structure that's a sequence: you need to use `define-sequence-syntax` with `:do-in

Re: [racket-users] Sequences in Typed Racket?

The adapter submodule does not work, I get the following error (in both typed and untyped Racket): fib.rkt:9:0: module: no #%module-begin binding in the module's language in: (module adapter racket/stream (provide stream-first stream-rest (rename-out (stream-cons* stream-cons))) (defin

Re: [racket-users] Installing packages

Yes. For some package , you can install it for your current user with the command "raco pkg install " or for the entire installation (which I often prefer) with "raco pkg install -i ". So, to install DrRacket, "raco pkg install drracket". Installing the document you linked to illustrates another
