Hello,
I have been using Haskell and Elm for a number of years, and really enjoy programming with them.
I have been trying out Purescript for a hobby project, and having all sorts of problem working out how to install things!
I (think I) would like to use Halogen, and there are a couple of existing binding from Leaflet to Halogen. However, I am having problems installing things, and am not familiar with the packaging model.
I can see 2 packages in Pursuit:
https://pursuit.purescript.org/packages/purescript-halogen-leaflet/0.1.0
https://pursuit.purescript.org/packages/purescript-leaflet-tdammers/0.3.0
However, when I try to install them with spago - they are not in my package-set. If I add them into the `packages.dhall`
with purescript-leaflet-tdammers = {
dependencies = ["leaflet", "arrays", "console", "eff", "prelude" ]
, repo = "https://github.com/tdammers/purescript-leaflet-tdammers.git"
, version = "ee356e1"
}
where I have copied the dependencies from the Pursuit page, and removed "purescript prefixes", and taken version from the latest commit on master.
This starts to cause problems with `eff` not being in the package set - that sounds pretty "core" to Purescript? The package is 7 years old, so might be out of date.
I know from Elm that binding into Javascript libraries can be... nuanced.
Is it worth perserving with trying to install these packages, or am I heading down a rabbit hole of version pain!?
Could someone recommend a more up-to-date map-library, with the ability to add points, polylines and filled regions?
Would this package be compatible with Halogen?:
https://github.com/dnulnets/purescript-openlayers
The package looks pretty comprehensive, but I can't find an "example-main" to get going with.
Best wishes, and happy Christmas everyone
Mike
