2024-12-27 23:40:09 +0100 <Zenen> I thought it would still be best to import everything specifically so that it was clear where all the functions were coming from (better for code readability) and decided this was a reasonable solution

2024-12-27 23:38:18 +0100 <Zenen> all of Cln.Types would be imported, with multiple `amount` functions and this casting is what specified it. I imagine there was a change in stack over the past 2 years, but I don't have the vocabulary to figure out what it was
2024-12-27 23:37:10 +0100 <Zenen> This is a good question, one I couldn't get a good answer for the last time. The code was originally disambiguated with sections like this: `(amount :: Channel -> Amount)`
2024-12-27 23:35:44 +0100 <monochrom> But now it does. What added the name clash?
2024-12-27 23:35:36 +0100 <monochrom> Therefore presumably there was no name clash once upon a time.
2024-12-27 23:35:25 +0100 <monochrom> Presumably this code base compiled fine once upon a time.

2024-12-27 23:34:38 +0100 <Zenen> creating distinct field names might be a bit of a long way around
2024-12-27 23:33:41 +0100 <Zenen> Yep, I inherited this codebase and I'm about 2 errors from getting it to compile
2024-12-27 23:33:11 +0100 <monochrom> The most elegant and simplest is to have distinct field names in the first place.
2024-12-27 23:32:28 +0100 <monochrom> Qualified import does not make a difference until Channel2 comes from a different module.
2024-12-27 23:32:16 +0100 <Zenen> right, and "amount" is a function which returns a specific value from the given record type

2024-12-27 23:31:41 +0100 <monochrom> Then that's just because the other "amount" is not imported.
2024-12-27 23:31:24 +0100 <Zenen> But I can import Channel(amount) and then it works... is there perhaps an elegant way to do this with qualified imports giving different names to the fields?

2024-12-27 23:29:34 +0100 <monochrom> Haskell doesn't have records, despite offering to fake the syntax.
2024-12-27 23:29:09 +0100 <monochrom> Right, there is no such thing as Channel.amount.
2024-12-27 23:28:45 +0100 <Zenen> but if I `import Cln.Types(Channel(amount), Channel2(amount))` then I don't know how to disambiguate the two fields. Channel.amount throws an error saying that there's no module named 'Channel' which has been imported

2024-12-27 23:27:11 +0100 <Zenen> I need to import the record so that I can gain unambiguous access to one of its fields. Channel and Channel2 both have 'amount' fields, and I can effectively `import Cln.Types(Channel(amount))`
2024-12-27 23:26:41 +0100 <monochrom> import Cln.Types(Channel)
2024-12-27 23:25:33 +0100 <Zenen> howdy folks! I've got a small confusion going on regarding a Haskell project I'm working on. I have a module named Cln.Types which defines a number of records. When I try to import one of those types `import Cln.Types.Channel`, the compiler tells me that it cannot find the module.

2024-12-27 23:02:32 +0100 <geekosaur> if you're using an explicit import list, import MyUnion(..)

2024-12-27 23:00:23 +0100 <fp> How does one make a tagged union and then use it in another module? For instance, I have =data MyUnion = Thing1 Text | Thing2 Text=. In the module I defined it, I can create an instace of this with =Thing1 "hello"=. However, if I do the same in my test suite, then it complains that =Thing1= isn't defined.
