Enabling the Roc track for testing?

Exercism Building Exercism

I’ve set test_runner to true, and I’ve set the exercise difficulties, and sorted by (difficulty, name), making sure that Hello World comes first.
I’ve also fixed the typos.
Thanks everyone! :pray:

Hello :slight_smile:

One key thing to mention is that now the track is syncing with the website, changing any UUIDs is a very bad thing. So please ensure that that doesn’t accidently happen during your work.

Thanks for all you’re doing! :blue_heart:

Hi Jeremy,
Gotcha, I’ll make sure that doesn’t happen. :+1:

I’ve started testing the track, it’s really nice! One little issue is the fact that there’s no syntax highlighting in the online editor. I’ll look into this.

A few Roc devs would like to test the track. Could you please add them to the list of testers? Their github logins are: isaacvando, smores56, and bsassoli.
Thanks

You should be able to find both ways of syntax highlighting via Enable syntax highlighting | Exercism's Docs.

Congrats on the new track!

I just added bsassoli to the list of Roc devs who would like to test the Roc track. Thanks

The links in roc/docs/RESOURCES.md at main · exercism/roc · GitHub
aren’t proper Markdown for URLs so they’re rendered as text instead at https://exercism.org/docs/tracks/roc/resources. The other docs appear correct.

Otherwise, I’ve done 7 exercises so far, and things look pretty decent. Good job :slight_smile:

Thanks @BNAndras , I just fixed the RESOURCES.md issue.

Btw, could you please confirm when the Roc devs above have been added to the list of testers of the Roc track? And if it’s not too much to ask, could you please set syntax highlighting for the online editor to Elm? Roc’s syntax is quite similar to Elm’s. :pray:

We can’t just add them as testers (we have no such concept). The only way in which this can be done is to make those devs part of the Roc team on github. Do you want that?

17

(I would recommend you doing this if they are going to help you out, even if it’s just testing and giving feedback. It’s relative easy to kick them out when no longer necessary)

I’m fine with adding them to the team BTW, just want to confirm they’re okay with it (they’ll get notifications by default). If they are okay with it, please have them create Exercism account and make sure they link their account to GitHub (update/check at Exercism).

Thanks @ErikSchierboom. All three have confirmed that their Exercism account is connected to GitHub, and they all agreed to be added to the Roc team on GitHub. Their Exercism logins are: isaacvando, smores56, and bsassoli.

I suggest at this stage adding branch protection, @ErikSchierboom.

21

It was already set-up, except for requiring PRs.

All three are invited to the GitHub team. Once accepted, they should be able to access the track.

I have requested a track Icon here: Requesting a track logo for the Roc language · Issue #180 · exercism/website-icons · GitHub
Is that the right place?

24

Yes. Thanks. I’ll try and do it on Wednesday. Pestering me here on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday if I’ve still not done it will be appreciated :slight_smile:

Hi @ErikSchierboom , all three (isaacvando, smores56, and bsassoli) have accepted the invitation and now appear in the Roc team on github (see Sign in to GitHub · GitHub), but they tell me they’re still getting a 404 at https://exercism.org/tracks/roc
Is there something else we need to do?
