Goeiemorgen ;-)

G'day

morning

Morgen!

I regularly organize coding dojo’s with a colleague of mine. I sent out an invitation for a coding dojo about FP/Clojure last Friday. Got already 28 people who accepted! 🙂 That’s an all time high I think! 🎉

Nice! Where is it going to be?

Eindhoven, aug 15

well, good luck!

Jammer, niet in Groningen...

feel free to vote: https://twitter.com/borkdude/status/1147975431343222785 if you want, you can get a sticker when I meet you next time 😉

Kondo is een linter? Dan vind ik die eerste duidelijker, daar staat het woord 'linter' in. Dan weet ik gelijk waarover het gaat.

ok, good point

Ik hou ook wel van duidelijke variabelenamen, die aangeven wat er in de variabele zit.

what's the best way to convert an .svg to pdf? I tried with gimp, but compared to an online service like https://www.zamzar.com I get a much more blurry pdf

Ik gebruik Affinity Designer (is niet gratis).

Als je die 1:1 bekijkt, zou-ie niet blurry moeten zijn

kun je ook eens pdf proberen?

dat vraagt de sticker-service waar ik het wil laten printen

@motoom het is al gelukt, een proefversie geïnstalleerd 🙂

Ah ok ;-)

Is dat duur, stickers laten printen? Wat voor materiaal? Waterproof plastic?

30 euro voor 75 stuks

@borkdude Voor de volgende keer: misschien Inkscape? https://inkscape.org

Die kan ’t naar PDF en PNG enzo converteren.

Alleen niet echt mac-native, heeft xquartz nodig.

(`brew cask install inkscape`)

I tried brew, but I get:

Error: Invalid formula: /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/caskformula/homebrew-caskformula/Formula/inkscape.rb
inkscape: "cxx11" is not a recognized standard
Error: Cannot tap caskformula/caskformula: invalid syntax in tap!

Huh haven’t seen that before. This seems to be about that: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54547437/brew-remove-inkscape-error-calling-needs-cxx11-is-disabled

Or maybe rather: https://github.com/caskformula/homebrew-caskformula/issues/83

TL/DR:

brew tap homebrew/cask
brew cask install inkscape

Haven’t tried it.

that seems to be doing something, thanks

hmm, inkscape complains that the svg is not valid

That’s odd. Mine opens it (the one downloaded from the link above: https://s.tonsky.me/share/clj-kondo.svg)

Got inkscape 0.92.2

$ inkscape ./clj-kondo.svg

** (inkscape-bin:22622): WARNING **: Can't open file: ./clj-kondo.svg (doesn't exist)

$ inkscape --version
Inkscape 0.92.2 5c3e80d, 2017-08-06

@borkdude what about imagemagick? convert clj-kondo.svg clj-kondo.pdf ? (you need to specify a few more details, as the default will be of low DPI, i think)

@borkdude I think you have to open the file through the GUI…

(Inkscape can be a bit slow to start)

(Open it by double-clicking it in /Applications)

trying... first disabling some security settings... but it doesn't run, it quits after a few seconds

giving up for now, too time consuming, thanks for all the suggestions

I understand, it’s frustrating when it doesn’t just work 😞

@stefan.van.den.oord got it working now:

docker run --rm -it -v $PWD:/img flungo/inkscape /usr/bin/inkscape /img/clj-kondo.svg --export-pdf=/img/foo.pdf

Hmm, shouldn’t be that difficult, but ok…

Is the problem with its GUI maybe that you need to install XQuartz separately? Don’t remember, too long ago 🙂

Trying on my new Macbook now.

@borkdude Not sure what’s going on with Inkscape, it’s not working the way it should. As a work-around, you can: 1. Manually start XQuartz (/Applications/XQuartz.app) 2. In XQuartz (!) open a new terminal (CMD-N) 3. In that terminal, run /Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/MacOS/Inkscape

difficult? docker is easier I find 🙂

Ah but now I have the GUI 🙂

I like the one with linter, because you immediately know what it is

makes me feel smart because it confirms my suspicion after seeing the squiggly line

@borkdude Inkscape works ok now! You know how I fixed it? Reboot!! 👎 I think the XQuartz installer is doing something that requires reboot somehow.

@nmdrenard thanks

on the other hand it also makes me not check it out further if I'm not interested in linters

if you're not interested in linters, and you will check, you will still be disappointed

I ordered the stickers, so now it's too late to change your mind 🙂

Are you bringing them to Heart of Clojure? 🙂

yeah 🙂
