[racket-users] Re: Typing lag with DrRacket on Linux

[Evan Whitmer]

I forgot to mention that I have a 4K display, and I think that's important 
to note here.

[racket-users] Re: Typing lag with DrRacket on Linux

[Evan Whitmer]

I, too, am having typing latency issues in DrRacket in the definitions 
window. As Dave noted, the size of the window seems to be related to the 
issue, and, in my experience, it's not just an issue with the Definitions 
window. Both the Interactions window and even the following code snippet 
(taken from StackOverflow 
)
 
will have this same lag:

(define frame (new frame% [label "Simple Edit"]
   [width 1800]
   [height 1800]))
(define canvas (new editor-canvas% [parent frame]))
(define text (new text%))
(send canvas set-editor text)
(send frame show #t)

(define delta (make-object style-delta% 'change-size 14))
(send delta set-face "Menlo")
(send text change-style delta)

I am on Ubuntu 17.10 using Racket 6.11 with the proprietary nVidia drivers 
and X.org. My GTK version is 3. I don't have this issue with any of the 
other text editors that I've tried to use.

I tried to profile the above text editor, but I am a novice Racketeer and 
could not figure out a way to profile a thread managed in racket/gui. Does 
anyone perhaps know of a way to hook the above into a profiler to see what 
might be the cause of this lag?

Has anyone happened to stumble onto this issue recently and solved it?

Yes.  The way this is implemented is that you will need to add a callback 
to the returned plot and from the callback add as many overlays as you 
want, where you want them (not necessarily at the X location). The 
advantage of this method is that you can display any value you want on the 
overlay, not just simply the value of the plotted function at the current 
location.  The disadvantage is that the feature is not 'free", like the 
zoom-unzoom functionality: the user has to add the callback and provide the 
overlays.

In my case, most of the interesting use cases do not involve simply showing 
the value of a function at the current location.  I put some examples here: 
https://alex-hhh.github.io/2018/02/interactive-overlays-with-the-racket-plot-package.html

I have not looked at candlestick plots, however, I imagine that you can 
work out what the current value is from the X position and show the 
open/low/high/close values either as a single badge or as markers on the 
relevant positions of the candlestick.

Best Regards,
Alex.

[racket-users] Re: Adding interactive overlays to racket plots

[Evan Whitmer]

Do you anticipate this playing well with charts that have multiple Y values 
for a given X value. For example, candlestick plotting 

 
has recently landed in racket/plot. It would be great to be able to show 
all of the values, or at least specify which of the open/high/low/close 
values to display.

[racket-users] Re: Concise way to get completions for Racket code?

[HiPhish]

I'm afraid that's not possible. The functionality that gets the completion
candidates is written in Racket:

  #lang racket/base
 
  (require nvim/rplugin framework)
 
  (define (complete prefix)
(define completions (text:get-completions/manuals #f))
(filter (λ (x) (regexp-match (regexp-quote prefix) x)) completions))
 
  (nvim-function "RacketCompletions"
(λ (args)
  (complete (vector-ref args 0

Neovim has this feature called "remote plugins": a plugin can be written in 
any
language as long as there is an API client for it:
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/Related-projects#api-clients

I wrote the Racket client for cases like these where I can use a Racket 
library
to solve a problem in Neovim. In the future if someone implements proper
semantic auto-completion for DrRacket I will be able to take that 
functionality
and use it in Neovim as well.

Thank you for finding that. I have used your snippet to add omni-completion 
to
Neovim now. I need to file down some rough patches before I make it a 
plugin,
but it works. Not as useful as having proper semantic completion would have
been, it does not include identifiers from the current module and includes 
all
sorts of identifiers that haven't been imported. Still, better than nothing 
I
guess.

Re: [racket-users] documentation and tests not running on racket pkgs

The pkg-build service is having trouble, probably related to an OS
upgrade. I've kicked it again, and I'll try to figure out what's going
wrong.

[racket-users] documentation and tests not running on racket pkgs

[rain1]

Hello,

I uploaded my package 3 days ago 
https://pkgs.racket-lang.org/package/peg but the documentation and tests 
have not been run. I was told it should happen every 24 hours.


I am not sure if I created my package slightly wrong or if the build 
server has a bug.
