I did not want to mess with sqlite or anything a simple dict holding my TODOs would be enough.
Is there a way to do this in roc? i suspect the platform should give me some way to create mutable state which is done through a state monad in most purely functional programmig languages.
How would one do this in Roc?
Anton (Nov 04 2024 at 18:48):Hi @Agustin Romero,
Is there a way to do this in roc?
This is possible but I recommend going with the sqlite version for now, modifying the platform will likely be more complicated if you've never done that before.
Agustin Romero (Nov 04 2024 at 18:50):Hi Anton thanks for the quick reply,
so i was correct there is literally no way to do that right now
Luke Boswell (Nov 04 2024 at 19:11):Correct. Each http request is basically completely isolated from other requests and run on different threads.
Agustin Romero (Nov 04 2024 at 22:14):hey luke feeling quite dumb here... copied the sqlite example from the platform and replaced the platform import...
Getting a file not found error. Any clues?
Agustin Romero (Nov 04 2024 at 22:25):sorry... looking at the future docs :P
