How to combine nim-metrics and chronos for simple rest api?

2024-03-29 Thread nimian
Thank you. I've managed to create a working example. Just a question since this is startMetricsHttpServer deprecated but I still have to mimic the createThread stuff? If I do this: proc startMetrics() {.async.} = ... proc startPresto() {.async.} = ... waitFor(allFuture

How to combine nim-metrics and chronos for simple rest api?

I am trying to have a simple application combining startMetricsHttpServer() from nim-metrics and have a separate httpServer for my application. At this stage I am trying to just create an API REST endpoint. I guess it would be unwise to use jester/httpbeast,asyncdispatch and nim-metrics togethe

Is there a plan to make Nim a language for normal businesses?

2024-03-10 Thread nimian
Biggest company is Status and they produce excellent libraries that are very much production ready. I agree with you problem with Nim is that it does not really shine at anything specifically. It's a research project with many different takes on how to do things. Also out of the box experience

What's stopping Nim from going mainstream? (And how to fix it?)

Anyone tried GPT-4 for Nim?

2023-04-02 Thread nimian
I suck at coding and it takes me a lot of time to figure things out and due to Nim's small community there is not enough publicly available libraries to use as a reference. Is GPT-4 (paid version of ChatGPT) good enough to help with Nim issues?

Why I stopped programming in Nim

I have a version of the nim compiler which creates binaries that are not flagged as Trojans. So there has to be a reason why this is happening for the new versions. But yeah it's a real pain in the ass especially in a corporate environment. I was trying to install nim on this new machine and I
