Hi,

The problem rarely occurs, but when we run guix commands in an environment
where "less" is not installed we get an error.

This is the same problem reported at the following URL
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1012405

If "more" could be specified as an alternative program to "less", the problem
would be less likely to occur at least in a POSIX environment. Also, I would
like to avoid using the pager in special environments where "more" is not
installed at all.

I have written a patch to solve the above.

I am concerned about performance degradation due to more unnecessary
processing.
If you have another good solution, please let me know.
Also, if you feel that this is a minor issue and not worth addressing, please
feel free to dismiss it. (Still, a fix to make the error message more friendly
might be a good idea.)

Best Regards,

Hi!

True.  Odd that it's gone unreported(?) for so long.

Since you asked…  :-)

One way that this is ‘expensive’ is that it always calls WHICH at 
least once, no matter what Guix was invoked to do.

If you're familiar with Haskell or Nix: Scheme is not that, it's 
not ‘lazy’ and will evaluate the (if (which "less") …) even when 
the value is never used.  Turning AVAILABLE-PAGER into a procedure 
would avoid that.

Also, you're looking up the final pager in $PATH twice: you call 
WHICH, but then discard its work by returning the relative string 
"less".

The final OPEN-PIPE* invokes a shell which will search $PATH 
again.  We could save it the trouble by returning an absolute file 
name: the result of WHICH.

And since WHICH returns #f on failure, you can replace the nested 
IFs with a single OR:

  (define (available-pager)
    (or (which "less")
        (which "more")))

And well, as you probably noticed by now, it's actually more clear 
and concise if we just in-line what little is left:

  (let ((pager-command-line (or (getenv "GUIX_PAGER")
                                (getenv "PAGER")
                                (which "less")
                                (which "more")
                                "")))
    …

Your original patch returns #f if no pages could be found.  I 
don't think that is handled, but "" is, so return that instead.

Now I think that's 100% equivalent to your original; let me know 
if I missed a spot.

It *is* minor, but then so is the fix, and as written above it 
doesn't add ‘overhead’.  I think it's a good idea to check for 
"more" (but no more) and silently disable paging otherwise.

Thanks!

Hi 写道,

I understand that I can delay the evaluation timing if I make it a
procedure, but is my understanding correct that the number of calls will
remain the same because it will be evaluated each time the
`call-with-paginated-output-port` procedure is called?

I agree with your point that it would be better to make it a procedure,
as it would be more eco-friendly to not have to evaluate when GUIX_PAGER
or PAGER is specified.

I see, I did not understand that behavior. Thank you.

This one is also more readable. Thank you.

You mean that the $PATH lookup in open-pipe can be suppressed?
Also, I misunderstood the string-null? spec; available-pager should have
returned an empty string.

I thought what you said was completely correct.

I will just write what you have told me, but may I continue to modify
the patch?

Can be simplified to something like,:

(define (find-available-pager)
  "[appropriate docstring]"
  (or (getenv "GUIX_PAGER") ;; <-- simplify 'if' chains by using 'or'
      (getenv "PAGER")
      (which "less")
      (which "more")
      ;; <--- TODO: how to handle no pager being found?
      ))

and

   (let ((pager-command-line (available-pager)))
     [...])

I've thunked find-available-pager here, such that call-with-paginated-
output-port respects the $PATH that is set before call-with-paginated-
output-port instead of the $PATH from when "guix ui" was loaded?

Ideally there would be some regression tests as well.

Greetings,
Maxime

Previously, it would have been evaluated even if 
call-with-paginated-output-port was never called at all.

As for the >0 calls case: yes… but when do we expect 
call-with-paginated-output-port to be called more than once per 
run?

The use case for this code is to do something, then display it in 
a pager and exit.  I think calling it multiple times in one run 
would imply bad UX.

Do I misunderstand?

I wish the rest of Guix were so efficient that it mattered :-)

[/me is waiting for ‘guix pull’ as I reply to multiple mails, on 
battery…]

Regardless, not calling a procedure at all is even more efficient 
and IMO more readable here.

> You mean that the $PATH lookup in open-pipe can be suppressed?

Yes.  OPEN-PIPE* won't need to stat $PATH at all if we give it 
"/run/current-system/profile/bin/less" instead of "less".

(It's not relevant to the above, but my previously reply 
mistakenly mentioned a shell — there is no shell involved with 
OPEN-PIPE*, only with OPEN-PIPE.  Sorry.)

Of course!  Curious how, though.

Kind regards,

Not really, but FWIW it might be convenient to use the
with-environment-variables macro and mock the call to open-pipe* with
the 'mock' macro to make sure that open-pipe* is called with the
‘correct’ pager according to PATH (*).  Searching for 'mock' with "git
grep -F" should find some examples.

(*) call-with-temporary-directory + chmod + call-with-output-file may
be useful for setting up a simulated $PATH with a dummy 'less' and/or
'more'.

Maxime.

Hi Tobias,

Thank you kindly for your detailed explanation.

No, you don't.
As you said, my implementation was a bad idea, as
call-with-paginated-output-port is executed even when it is not needed.
It seems unlikely that call-with-paginated-output-port will be called
more than once in a single process. I did not have enough insight.

I agree.

No problem. I'm sorry I'm the one who asked a ton of questions.

I have also received a response from Maxime and plan to include the
following information.

(define (find-available-pager)
  "Returns the program name or path of an available pager.
If neither less nor more is installed, return an empty string so that
call-with-paginated-output-port will not call pager."
  (or (getenv "GUIX_PAGER")
      (getenv "PAGER")
      (which "less")
      (which "more")
      "" ;; Returns an empty string so that call-with-paginated-output-port does not call pager.
      ))

(define* (call-with-paginated-output-port proc
                                          #:key (less-options "FrX"))
  (let ((pager-command-line (find-available-pager)))
...

However, I can't submit the v2 patch yet because I don't know how to
implement the integration test.

Thanks,

Thanks for the implementation tips. I will try to implement the test as
well, although it will be after tomorrow. Is tests/ui.scm the right
place to implement the tests?

Hi,

I have created a v2 patch and have attached it to this email and also
added a unit test for the find-available-pager.

Hi Maxime,

I tried to mock open-pipe* and isatty?* using the mock macro and also
add a test to inspect the program coming across to open-pipe*, but gave
up because I could not get the return value of the
with-paginated-output-port macro.

I think we are one step closer, but it is not working.
I will share a piece of code in the process of verification just in
case.

(test-equal "with-paginated-output-port"
  "less"
  (call-with-temporary-directory
   (lambda (dir)
     (with-environment-variables
         `(("PATH" ,dir))
       (make-dummy-executable-file dir "less")
       (mock ((ice-9 popen) open-pipe*
              (lambda (mode command . args)
                (current-output-port)))
             (mock ((guix colors) isatty?* (const #t))
                   (with-paginated-output-port paginated
                     "less")))))))

I have debugged that the return value of dynamic-wind is "less", but I
could not successfully use it for assertions.

I also tried to inspect the value of the command argument using
test-equal in the open-pipe* mock replacement function, but it did not
work.

Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks,
-- 
Taiju

The return value of 'with-paginated-output-port' is just whatever the
last expression put in that macro evaluates to.  Also 'close-pipe'
needs to be mocked, otherwise an error will result.

Try:

(test-assert "with-paginated-output-port: finds less in PATH"
  (call-with-temporary-directory
    (lambda (dir)
      (define used-command #false)
      (with-environment-variables
          `(("PATH" ,dir))
        (make-dummy-executable-file dir "less")
        (mock ((ice-9 popen) open-pipe*
               (lambda (mode command . args)
                 (when used-command ; <--- an extra test
                    (error "open-pipe* should only be called once"))
                 (set! used-command command) ; <--- this captures the passed command
                 (%make-void-port ""))) ; return a dummy port
              (mock ((ice-9 popen) close-pipe (const 'ok))
                 (mock ((guix colors) isatty?* (const #t))
                    (with-paginated-output-port port 'ok)))))
      (and (pk 'used-command used-command dir) ; <-- fails on my computer because a non-absolute path is passed and I haven't applied our patch
           (string=? (in-vicinity dir "less") used-command)))))

Greetings,
Maxime.

Thank you very much! It worked as expected!

I made a v3 patch.

Two tests have been added: one to select pager from the environment
variable and the other to select less from the PATH.

I also made some improvements to the existing tests based on your
answers.

There are many ways to do this. I learned a lot.

Thanks,

This is off-topic.

I feel I have a limited vocabulary available to me in Guile or Scheme
(as well as in English...) , but functions like pk were not included in
Guile's reference or Scheme's reference, so I thought my chances of
knowing them were quite limited. (I didn't know about in-vicinity
either, but now that I know it is in SRFI.)

Are these the kind of things you learn by reading the source?

Didn't know it was part of a SRFI.

Yes, some things aren't documented.  Though if interested, feel free to
doucment them.

Wait, looking at the definition of with-environment-variables, if PAGER
was set when running "make check" (try "GUIX_PAGER=less make check
TESTS=tests/ui.scm"), it will still be set when the test is run
(unverified).  Maybe it should be unset?  Proposal:

Change

                  (match-lambda
                    ((variable value)
                     (setenv variable value)

to

                  (match-lambda
                    ((variable #false)
                     (unsetenv variable))
                    ((variable value)
                     (setenv variable value)


and change the with-environment-variables to

   (with-environment-variables
      `(("PATH ,dir)
        ("PAGER" #false)
        ("GUIX_PAGER" #false))
      [...]).

and likewise for the other tests?

(string=? ((@@ (guix ui) find-available-pager)) "guix-pager")))))

Nitpick: find-available-pager is not an exported procedure, so due to
optimisations, it can dissappear (be inlined into call-with-paginated-
output-port).  So to be 100% robust, it needs to be exported, or a line

  (set! find-avaible-pager find-available-pager) ; used in tests/ui.scm

needs to be added in guix/ui.scm, or the tests needs to be adjusted
to always use with-paginated-output-port instead of
find-available-pager.

Otherwise, tests LGTM.

Greetings,
Maxime.

Sorry, I easily used with-environment-variable*s* because the interface
looked convenient, but perhaps I should have used
with-environment-variable defined in guix/tests.scm.
However, using this one does not seem to solve the problem. Should I
modify with-environment-variable*s*?

Thank you. I will modify it in one of the ways you suggested.

I did not understand the optimization behavior. Thank you very much.

Thanks,

Yes, but in Guile it behaves in a way that makes it useful for
constructing path strings, but when I checked the SRFI specification[0],
the behavior seems to be different from that of the SRFI specification.
(in-vicinity = string-append)

I wonder if this is a subtle specification, since Gauche, which
implements many SRFIs, did not have it either...

Thank you!
This is not a complaint about the documentation. I just wanted to know
how people as proficient in Guile as you guys learned Guile.
I am glad to know that I can learn by getting suggestions for better
code implementation through code reviews, etc.

But, I thought it would be a good idea to include functions like pk in
the documentation, since the efficiency of development depends on
knowing them.

I didn't know about 'with-environment-variable' (it already does the
unsetenv!). Just use whatever works (a nested with-environment-variable
or a modified with-environment-variables), though FWIW I would expect
using the modified with-environment-variables to result in more compact
code.

Maxime

I decided to fix with-environment-variables.

Also, the problem of find-available-pager tests being tests for
unexported functions has been changed to tests that use the exported
with-paginated-output-port to verify that the command is passed to
open-pipe* as expected.

The patches look fine from here (only reading them, not actually
running the tests myself).

Greetings,

Applied with the cosmetic changes below, mostly aiming to visually
simplify the code and make it consistent with the rest.

It’s great that you went to great lengths to implement tests for this,
as Maxime had suggested.  To me, the complexity of a test must be
justified by its “bug-finding performance”; in this particular case, I
think we’re borderline: the tests are a little bit complex and unlikely
to find new bugs.

Thanks for all the work and for your feedback on your experience
programming with Guile!

Ludo’.

I only discovered the problem, I was able to implement it mostly thanks
to Maxime and Tobias!
The code review experience was so good that I even posted the following
:)
https://fosstodon.org/web/@taiju/108458633893022791
https://fosstodon.org/web/@taiju/108458643302758263

I'd like to know for future contributions.
I like functional programming and I love compose, (ice-9
curried-definitions), and SRFI 26 in my programs, but should I use them
less in the code I put in Guix?

Thanks,

Heh, good to know that it was a positive experience!

Probably.  It’s tempting to use these if you come with a Haskell
background, say.  But in some cases, they make things less readable;
that’s the case with the way ‘make-dummy-file’ was written IMO.

Guix code uses SRFI-26 in some places; I think (ice-9
curried-definitions) is not used anywhere but I think it’s fine to use
it if it helps.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Thank you for your answers!

I like Haskell and OCaml, but I don't have experience with them much. I
like Scheme and Common Lisp more :)

The point-free style is beautiful, but it is often just
self-satisfaction, so I think after hearing your opinion that better use
them less in shared code.
However, those features that make it possible are very good, and I will
continue to use them in the programs I write for personal use :)

Thanks,

On this topic and others, the manual links to Riastradh’s style guide
for Scheme (info "(guix) Formatting Code"), which is worth a read!
