i decided it'd be nice to have typed input fields that have configurable prefixes/suffixes for units
2019-01-06T04:37:03.677500
Tu
elmlang

so like " 4.5 %/mo" where "%/mo" is the suffix
2019-01-06T04:37:32.677700

it's for a real estate investment model
2019-01-06T04:38:00.677900
Tu
elmlang

So you'd like to always render prefix/suffix close to what user typed in and to achieve this you are considering contenteditable, is it correct?
2019-01-06T04:38:08.678100
Lynne
elmlang

correct, except i'm no longer using contenteditable b/c it doens't maintain cursor position, and it's just not as high priority as finishing

Does the google bot index text from inside an SPA? My main page has almost no text, but a user can navigate to another view that does have a bunch of text on it. I don't know how to tell if that's being accessed or not, but I think probably not. One can pass an URL that causes the page to load with the text on it, but google search thinks that's a duplicate to the main view, which has no text displayed - and arguably that's correct since the same code is loaded either way.
2019-01-06T09:47:08.687900
Lindsey
elmlang

<@Lindsey> kind of. If you don't use actual &lt;a href&gt; tags (or provide a sitemap) the bot doesn't have much to work with.
2019-01-06T11:19:21.690100

And although it can handle running some JS in a sandbox, I'm not sure if it's done on all pages (and probably not in the first pass)

Jake
elmlang

yeah, I get "Duplicate, submitted URL not selected as canonical" for my help page. I could flag it as the canonical page but that's not really what I want visitors to see right away. Still, maybe better than no results on google.

I just switched from urls containing various parameters to plain urls corresponding to my four 'pages' and then parameters in the query part. So basically four urls and then /

by hash routing I assume you mean some kind of base64 encoding of parameters and whatnot

long shot, are you possibly after: <https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/elm/url/latest/Url-Parser-Query#custom>
2019-01-06T22:23:30.706600
Ruthann

the string function returns a `Parser (Maybe String)` you can’t get around that unless you put in your own delimiter perhaps and split it at the end
2019-01-06T22:24:14.707400
Ruthann
elmlang

OR are you actually after a map2: <https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/elm/url/latest/Url-Parser-Query#map2>
2019-01-06T22:25:00.707700
Ruthann
elmlang
general
Yeah I got kinda close with `map2`, but it's not ideal, since I end up with a record having two `Maybe`s, thus: ``` type alias ConfirmationToken = { tokenId : Maybe String, token : Maybe String} routeParser : Parser (ConfirmationToken -&gt; a) a routeParser = query (Query.map2 ConfirmationToken (Query.string "tokenId") (Query.string "token")) ```
2019-01-06T22:27:11.708700

``` toMabeConfirmationToken maybeA maybeB = case ( maybeA, maybeB) of (Just a, Just b) -&gt; { tokenId = a, token = b } _ -&gt; Nothing ```
2019-01-06T22:41:34.709900
Ruthann
elmlang

<@Bernardo> you can choose to return nothing if you don’t get both matches is this better? gets rid of the Maybes

Ruthann

Brilliant! Here's the version I just finished writing :grin: ``` type Route = Home | ConfirmRoute String String toRoute : Url.Url -&gt; Route toRoute url = case (parse routeParser url) of Just cToken -&gt; case (cToken.tokenId, cToken.token) of (Just tokenId, Just token) -&gt; ConfirmRoute tokenId token otherwise -&gt; Home otherwise -&gt; Home ```

you could even put the inner case in a separate function and use the Maybe.andThen with `Maybe.withDefault Home` to streamline the pipes

our parser is broken up into a list of possible results, i think if you have more routes, it’s better to do something like this: ``` parser : Parser (Route -&gt; a) a parser = Url.Parser.oneOf [ Url.Parser.map Login top , Url.Parser.map Login (s "login") , Url.Parser.map UserSettings (s (toPath UserSettings)) , Url.Parser.map Security (s (toPath Security)) , Url.Parser.map Logout (s "logout") , Url.Parser.map Search (s "search" &lt;/&gt; searchSubPageParser) , ... ] ```

Yeah, I'm right on the fence on whether to do fragment routing (so I can just naively serve my `index.html`), or bite the bullet and use a proper web-server
2019-01-06T22:58:05.716800
Bernardo
elmlang

Aaaah, I see now, this turns the fragment *into* the path: `{ url | path = Maybe.withDefault "" url.fragment, fragment = Nothing }`, that's awesome, thanks <@Ruthann>!

That `main` function must return a `Program` because this is what Elm runtime is capable of running

Hi folks, is there any working implementation of a global model (i.e. store a.k.a. redux) for Elm? I've been wondering a lot about it, couldn't exactly spot anything out there, after being repeatedly asked for something like that for my project?

pretty much, I don't see much of a problem with writing huge model for all my domain object, but I am terrified with dealing with any associations that are out there and keeping them in sync

Can you be more specific about your question? An Elm app has a single model value that hold all the state of your application. (redux got the idea from Elm)

It sounds an awful lot like you’re describing the Elm Architecture itself (which redux is an implementation of).

elm spa exmple i think used to have a `Session` object which is almost (smells like ) a `Model`. and then each Page had its own `Model`, and could “sync” data with `Session`
2019-01-07T17:06:19.736000

so let's say my model looks like: ``` type alias Store = { students: List Student classes: List Classes } type alias Student = { classes: List Classes --- or should it be List Classes.Id } ```
