Hey beautiful people! I have a parser that happens to parse urls. Given a sentence I would like to get all urls in the sentence. Similar to `regex.match` in JS How would I go about doing that?

I'd start by picking a parser library via <https://package.elm-lang.org/>
2019-03-05T12:46:02.512100

There is an official regex package: <https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/elm/regex/latest/>

You can also write a parser with <https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/elm/parser/latest>

Are you looking to do something like: ``` parseUrls : String -&gt; List Url ``` or something more like: ``` type Content = Text String | Link Url parseContent : String -&gt; List Content ```

You may want `Parser.loop`

Probably with one of the chomp functions to consume non-url strings
2019-03-05T12:53:00.517300
Carman
elmlang

and `backtrackable` so you can try to parse a url, but then if the first character looks like a url but then it actually isn't, you can fall back to chomping

Sorry, late reply but thanks for the explanation. I personally think that `Array.slice` behaves unintuitively but at least it's not a bug.

Hello! Hopefully this is the right place to ask this. I have just been working with the elm-form library and once I fixed all the errors in my code, the compilation seems to fail with no errors. Its rather confusing. I've uploaded it to Ellie here: <https://ellie-app.com/4Tw5fDwx8v6a1> If anyone has any ideas I would be thankful!
2019-03-05T14:34:28.523500

So based on the Ellie it seems the compilation succeeds, but the generated JS is not good. It's that what's happening?

Sometimes the compiler can come up with super strange types that technically would work but aren't what I meant at all, if I have no type annotations in the code.
2019-03-05T14:42:55.529700
Bert
elmlang

And those super strange types might be grounds for unexplored bugs in the compiler

Is there a way to make a `&lt;script&gt;` tag in Elm? For Algolia with InstantSearch, I need a `&lt;script&gt;` tag with a specific `type` and `id`: ``` Html.node "script" [ attribute "type" "text/html", attribute "id" "hit-template" ] [...] ``` However, that creates a `&lt;p&gt;` tag instead of a `&lt;script&gt;` for some reason…
2019-03-05T18:35:04.537300

Yes, it does work. If memory serves there’s a volume attribute in html.attributes, and muted can be created. If needed, hit me up later in the week and I’ll make the custom attributes. You can also find them in my 0.18 elm-media package and can copy and paste.

in general, anything that does not rely on changing the state of your app will go into the `view` function

Is there a way to replace portions of a string with &lt;span&gt; tags? Specifically, I get a piece of valid HTML from the server, and I want to embed that in the page. Previously one could use `Html.Attributes.property "innerHTML" (Json.Encode.string displayText`, but not in 0.19.

Essentially three ways to handle this: - use `Markdown` (since html is valid markdown) - parse and convert to `Html` in Elm, using `hecrj/html-parser` - use a custom element that can (validate and) render html string literals

Hi! I am using a _dynamic_ `subscriptions` (I subscribe to different things depending on the model), and I was wondering when are the subscriptions _updated_? I expected the subscriptions to update right after `update` is done just when the new model is accessible from the app's point of view, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
2019-03-06T06:56:46.564400

Thank you <@Huong>, the html-parser worked perfectly! I'll explore the third option as well
2019-03-06T06:58:24.564500
Chaya
elmlang

I'd say the parse/convert is probably the safer one - you can create a `validate : List Node -&gt; Result Whatever (List Node)` function to throw in the pipeline and do validation of the content (allowed tags, attributes, etc)

In short - if subscriptions change in response to a command from `init`, things go wrong

Interesting! It might be similar, it is right after `init` but I'm doing something else right after. I am using a _fake_ `Cmd Msg` (no effects, just a pure `Msg`), and the subscriptions still don't update then.

i'm not sure how to do that in our (old) jenkins build setup. i think an issue is that our maven build installs its own npm version, so the global `.npm` doesn't contain elm either...

Hi. Any reason the Elm (0.19) runtime might complain that ``` Error: What node should I take over? In JavaScript I need something like: Elm.Main.init({ node: document.getElementById("elm-node") }) You need to do this with any Browser.sandbox or Browser.element program. ``` even though it's clearly injecting itself into the page (successfully). I'm using Webpack 4 and a few plugins...

Initialising normally with a `Browser.element` on the Elm side and ``` const app = Elm.Main.init({ node: document.getElementById('main') }); ``` on the JS side

The issue is that `decodeValue` excepts the argument to be a `Decoder`, you pass it a function which returns a `Decoder`
