tidal 0.9.10

[tonyday567]

How do we get tidal-0.9.10 back in the nightlies, given missing dependencies (hosc-0.16)?

See #3084 and tidalcycles/Tidal#405

ping @yaxu

You have a choice, either

• get hosc-0.16 into nighlies, or
• eliminate the dependency on hosc-0.16.

Thanks, I'll check with Rohan Drape the maintainer of hosc.

Ok @rd-- is happy for hosc to go into stackage, but has no experience of stack - he only uses cabal so would rather someone else sorted it out and was the contact. I'd be happy to be the contact, although am no expert in stack either. I can have a go at this later.

Here's the repository:
https://github.com/rd--/hosc

He kindly sent a diff to get tidal to work with upcoming version of hosc, which he will try to release in the next week or two:

I've submitted a PR to add hosc to stackage, however there is another dependency needed before I can add tidal again as far as I know - microspec. I've emailed the maintainer of that too (@vivid-synth )

Tidal is now up to 1.0.4, and is currently the 16th most popular haskell package according to hackage monthly downloads.. So it'll be great to get it in stackage soon.

here's the first pr #4247

Done, thanks all

Just wondering why this hasn't made it to LTS yet.. Is it due to #4312 ?

[juhp]

Hmm fair question: it went into Nightly after lts-13 was branched.
(https://www.stackage.org/package/tidal/snapshots)
But you are welcome to request to to be added to lts-13 if it builds there.

[yaxu]

Thanks @juhp is that a case of making a new issue here?

[DanBurton]

@yaxu for adding packages to LTS, open a new issue on https://github.com/commercialhaskell/lts-haskell/issues
