Lynne
elmlang

they kind of are, but bigger issue is on backend side that even after receiving a load of performance improvements may still get killed given that can be bombarded with thousands of new request for each object resolved from 1st request to get those details one by one :smile:

we’ve heard - but now for quite a long time - that a fix is in development. It requires changes deep in the internals of the compiler and will take time. With other stuff coming out though - e.g. http2 - there is a question as to how much this bug is being prioritised

you should just ask the question on <#C0HJVT881|elm-css> and see if anyone there can help you. github issues should be issues related to the project itself, not a question about usage of the project, for that slack (or discourse) is a better place. :slightly_smiling_face:

Is there a way to capture the first part of a union type? e.g. suppose there is a union type: ``` type Model = Foo1 Bar1 Baz1 | Foo2 Bar2 Baz2 ... ``` you can use `case model of` and match on `Foo1 bar _ -&gt;`, but I am unable to match on it like this `foo bar _ -&gt;` in order to be able to construct the right foo back. I’m thinking that the way to is to wrap the `Foo` in another constructor, like: ``` type Model = Qux1 Foo1 Bar1 Baz1 | Qux2 Foo2 Bar2 Baz2 ... ```
2019-01-10T10:40:47.035600

I'm not sure what you mean by "construct the right foo back"?
2019-01-10T10:45:26.036100

Something like this? ``` case model of Foo1 bar _ -&gt; Foo1 bar newBaz ... ```
2019-01-10T10:45:56.036800
Carman
elmlang
general
Yes, sorry, that is what I mean. I want to do this because the message I get leads to updating something in the payload e.g. `bar`, but it should not change the foo type. Right now I have a growing number of Foo1, Foo2, etc so I am casing on all of them
2019-01-10T10:54:33.039000

Do you have something that works and are trying to simplify? Or are you trying to something working first?
2019-01-10T10:57:54.039500
Carman

I have something that works, and am trying to simplify. I will be adding more cases of Foo as I refactor more logic from the JS side
2019-01-10T11:02:30.040600
Su
elmlang

So you want a way to unwrap, do a thing to a value inside, then rewrap?
2019-01-10T11:03:42.041100

Yes, that describes it exactly

How many branches will have a `bar` value? Just one? Most branches?
2019-01-10T11:05:11.042300

Right now, all the branches have the `bar` value; I cannot foresee a branch without a `bar` value

One possibility is to have something like: ``` updateBar : (Bar -&gt; Bar) -&gt; Model -&gt; Model updateBar func model = case model of Foo1 bar other -&gt; Foo1 (func bar) other Foo2 bar different -&gt; Foo2 (func bar) different ... ```
2019-01-10T11:08:18.046400
Carman
elmlang
general
This allows you to only have to do the `case` once. Now you can apply any operation to a bar inside a model
2019-01-10T11:08:52.047700
Carman
elmlang
general
<@Su> one option is to make `type alias Foo {bar : Int, baz: FooBar}` so you put fields which the variants have in common in the outside record, and things that are different you put in the inner type
2019-01-10T11:10:26.050800
Nana
elmlang
general
Another possibility is to change the modeling. If there's always a `Bar` + something else maybe you could have something like: ``` type alias Model = { bar : Bar, rest : ThePartThatVaries } ```
2019-01-10T11:10:37.050900
Carman
elmlang
general
hmmm I think that's the same approach as <@Nana> :smile:
2019-01-10T11:11:06.051300

<@Carman> yup :smile:
2019-01-10T11:12:30.051800
Nana
elmlang

<@Carman> and <@Nana> awesome, thanks. Casing on all the variants in one place will address casing everywhere. And changing the modeling to a record with outer common structure makes a lot of sense for my model.

I implemented a little demo in elm (for a class I teach) a while back. You can see a live version here: <http://paws.kettering.edu/~sturgmancohen/realtime/> and the approximate code here: <https://github.com/sturgman/demo-leveltank> I am curious... say I wanted to learn moder js by porting my demo. What would that entail? Where would I even start? What kind of things would I have to learn. I appreciate elm because it guided me into accomplishing the demo with little web programming experience: it told me to build a model, a way to update it, and a view. I did those three things and magically had a useful demo for class. How do I even get started doing something similar in js?
2019-01-10T13:49:51.054600

More specific questions: I know elm uses something called a vdom... would I need something like that in js land... or could I forgo it?
2019-01-10T13:50:23.054700
Jospeh
elmlang

there's raw js, and there's 'modern' js. I think in most real world projects there will be libraries/frameworks involved. you can pick one and see how its goes... react for instance?
2019-01-10T13:54:06.054900

<@Jospeh> vdom is a technique that Elm and many modern JS frameworks uses under the hood. it's a way to enable writing functional/declarative UI code with good performance

the are frameworks/libs for JS, but they use "functional rendering" similar to Elm
2019-01-10T14:13:33.056500

Never mind! I googled... make sense... so I would still use something to guide me through the process instead of just starting js from scratch...

Is it possible/reasonable to write a decoder adapter with Json.Decode? For example, I'm trying to write a function with type: `replaceAlias : Decoder a -&gt; (String, String) -&gt; Decoder a` That will adapt the provided decoder to work on JSON where an object field name needs to be different.
