jfroebe | trying to come up with a replacement name for my Flickr::Simple2.. (it is based off of XML::Simple rather than XML::Parser::Lite::Tree) - Net::Flickr, Flickr::API, Flickr::Simple are already taken. Any ideas? I'm coming up blank for a name |
jfroebe | It is a Perl interface to Flickr |
mofino | wait |
rindolf | jfroebe: ah, I saw your message on Chicago.pm |
rindolf | jfroebe: maybe WWW::Flickr |
mofino | you found others and decided you needed to make ANOTHER perl interface to flickr? |
jfroebe | the other ones have been broken for a long time (either because of use of the abandoned XML::Parser::Lite::Tree module or because the authentication method was never correctly implemented) |
buu | jfroebe: Please no more names involving ::Simple |
rindolf | buu: ::Tiny |
jfroebe | WWW::Flickr is a good possibility |
buu | Thanks rindolf. |
mofino | hah tiny is the new simple |
rindolf | ::Minimal. |
buu | ::SeriouslyfuckingSmall |
rindolf | ::NotEnough |
rindolf | ::GargantuanlySmall |
rindolf | ::Minuscule |
apeiron | ::Warning::Uses::XML::Simple::And::Thus::Has:: Terrible::Performance::And::Memory::Usage |
Fah | ::Deficient |
mofino | stay in the Flickr:: space |
rindolf | apeiron++ |
mofino | if there already is one |
jfroebe | mofino.. that's the problem what to name it |
nadim | ::Nano |
nadim | that should be small enough and it sounds serious |
mofino | jfroebe, something in Flickr:: ;) |
rindolf | ::Femto |
jfroebe | lol - understood |
mofino | jfroebe, ::Improved ::Modern ::Lite ::Tiny ::FUCKYEAH |
rindolf | jfroebe: a Rose by any other name... |
mofino | IS A DUCK |
rindolf | I think half the posts to module-authors are about "How shall I name this module?" |
mofino | haha |
ik | I use perlmonks for that ^_^ |
rindolf | jfroebe: I'm not a fan of XML::Simple either. |
mofino | XML::Simple is teh awesome |
ik | 1; |
ik | XML::Simple is teh sux |
mofino | whatever |
ik | "this could be an arrayref or a hashref or a nothingref depending on how many thingies were in your doo-dad" |
mofino | force it |
ik | yes |
mofino | but yeah, that is a bit annoying |
rindolf | ik++ - my thoughts exactly. |
mofino | OH SUDDEN HASHREF |
apeiron | XML::Simple is the MySQL of XML parsers. |
mofino | haha |
mofino | ahh mysql, DOOOMED |
rindolf | Haha # apeiron++ |
kent\n | lol @ > apeiron |
drforr | There's a reason it's called "Simple." You'll find out about 3 days after you start using it. |
kent\n | would it be anything related to being feature-incomplete |
drforr | That would be be why it's "simple". |
jfroebe | but for simple XML data (i.e. Flickr's REST API), it is more than sufficient |
kent\n | define "simple" XML |
kent\n | $xml = '<' # already too complex |
jfroebe | kent - lol |
jfroebe | :) |
jfroebe | thoughts on Flickr::YA::API ? |
jfroebe | for a name |
mofino | jfroebe, YA? |
jfroebe | yet another |
mofino | ... |
mofino | just pick a name |
mofino | Flickr::API |
mofino | oh, never mind |
jfroebe | mofino - now you see.. all the good ones are taken ;-) |
mofino | maybe you had it at Flickr::Simple2 |
kent\n | Flickr::API:: something |
kent\n | or something |
mofino | kent\n, namespace already in use |
rindolf | Flickr::Two |
mofino | jfroebe, since your API is an improvement over Simple |
nadim | mst: lol |
kent\n | Flickr::API::SucksLess |
rindolf | jfroebe: you can call it Flickr::Jfroebey |
jfroebe | mofino, I think you might be right. |
kent\n | Flicker::API::FAFINAFA |
jfroebe | rindolf - lol ... my head is already big enough lol |
mofino | jfroebe, i mean, if that's what it is, it shows a clear progression from Simple |
kent\n | ( Flicker::API::FAFINAFA is not a flickr api ) |
nadim | Flicker::rekcilF |
rindolf | jfroebe: I have released Spork::Shlomify with some random changes to Spork that I needed. |
rindolf | Well, I use subclassing to implement them. |
jfroebe | lmao |
apeiron | You forked that spork! |
rindolf | apeiron: it's not a fork! It's an improved spork! |
rindolf | Flickr::Bettr |
kent\n | Flickr::Strobe |
kent\n | ( its a bit brighter ) |
kent\n | Flickr::OnAndOff |
nadim | Flickr::FullBeam |
nadim | Flickr::FullLights |
kent\n | Flickr::2009 |
mofino | Flickr::Meat |
kent\n | that way somebody will be able to invent something better next year |
kent\n | and call it Flickr::2010 |
mofino | Flickr::rkcilF |
mofino | Flickr::Barbie::Edition |
mofino | Flickr::Nuts |
nadim | Flickr::3b0f3a25d07e5d9dbdf98db15ee70410 (and no, it is not random) |
mofino | Flickr::911wasaninsidejob |
nadim | hehe |
mofino | haha |
jfroebe | thanks guys :) I've requested the Flickr::Simple2 namespace via pause |
