The new markup is basically a foo.dhall file with some field in it containing the actuall markdown text (which is to be parsed with another markup parser, mmark).
@Joel McCracken So looks like both and you arrived at a common point where we need a particular feature done in rib sooner than later . Wanna pair on it? :slight_smile:
but yeah, i actually really dislike yaml in general . I have considered going the dhall route instead of xml, but I just think the xml is likely to be better, but I might change my mind at some point!
I'm developing a small stream-based blog in rib.
And I realized how much YAML sucks for denoting non-trivial metadata
I'm tempted to go with
dhall. So that leads to ... having rib support this new markup.The new markup is basically a

I would! But it will have to wait for a few days
no time right now, and the wifi is spotty where I am at
but that sounds great!
I did start working on it a tinnyyy bit
cool. i'll go ahead with experimenting in a branch. when you are free, ping me.
awesome

monadfix.com uses dhall, so i'm inspired to use it. also, there is dhall-haskell to map the dhall types to haskell: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/dhall-1.28.0/docs/Dhall.html
how do they use it?
the Q/A in the library section (https://monadfix.com/#library) for example use dhall
oh cool
