Sparrow6 VS MoarVM

Please pay attention if you want to dig really deep )) , then underlying SparrowCI itself is just a transpiler from YAML ( plus some more features ) into Sparrow DSL which is documented here - https://github.com/melezhik/sparrow6 but you probably don’t need that part if you are only interested in writing pipelines …

As an addition to what's been already said, you might distribute your personal libraries as Sparrow plugins and spin up a private Sparrow repo for that - https://github.com/melezhik/Sparrow6/blob/master/documentation/repository.md , it should not be very hard and by they way Sparrow is well integrated with zen by using Rakufile mechanism - https://github.com/melezhik/Sparrow6/blob/master/documentation/development.md#package-managers , so one can distribute any ref modules (including taken from git , not eco system ) by just including Rakufile into one's plugin ...

I think alternatives to Ansible such as Rex and Sparrow have "fake it and show me the commands" modes — but I'm not 100% sure.

I'm not sure if there is a full fledged web framework for Raku just yet, but one of its claims to fame is Sparrow. It's declarative configuration management akin to Puppet, Chef, or Ansible.

Sparrow an automation framework, and its modules

During this stage Bird will use prepared task checks rules (check file - /root/.bird/285892/state.check]) and run them against the output. Bird will use Sparrow task check DSL to do so.

1) Sparrow - https://github.com/melezhik/Sparrow6 Raku Automation Framework ( alternative to ansible )

Sparrow is a wonderful tool to automate @daily devops tasks. Recently I've dropped a new plugin called k8s-deployment-check to verify k8s deployments. It lets you with a little bit of Raku code effectively test entire k8s infrastructure, including k8s deployments.

Could be added pretty easily, Sparrow has cpan-package primitive for for that.

Implement return prioritization #1786: superseeded

Now, as to how that's done at the low level, and whether the way it's done is a good way to do it, well, I can't help. Suffice to say, the main place to look for how this is handled at the low-level is MoarVM. I dug around for a couple minutes and have a link to a commit from nearly a decade ago. Does that help?

For a class the default representation is P6Opaque. This is one of a few dozen stock representations that Raku requires compiler backends implement as standard. See, for example, the 46 .c/.h pairs of C89 source files in the relevant MoarVM directory. A quick glance at the names of the source code files should paint a broad picture. A look at their code will fill in some details.

I'm hoping someone who knows C89 can take a quick gander at the C89 code implementing 47 representations in here and comment on it.

This is (yet another) very un(der)documented Raku feature (over a decade after it was introduced!), but one can browse what looks to me like reasonably clean and commented C89 code implementing 47 representations in the relevant MoarVM directory.
