Is this running in DrRacket or as a script?

[Stefan Schmiedl]

Greetings,

I find myself coding some more in DrRacket on my local Win10 PC.
The finished program is to be run on a remote linux server.

I like to keep the code set up for the production environment
but to test it locally I need to configure some things differently.

Currently I'm doing this manually by commenting/uncommenting a sexp
with the required modifications.

Is there a function around that allows me to do something like

(when (running-in-dr-racket?)
(foo)
(bar))

Thanks,
s.

You can use a `drracket` submodule:

(module+ drracket

 (foo)

 (bar))

but you need to configure DrRacket to recognize it: Click on the bottom-left button about languages, and at the bottom of "Dynamic Properties", click on "Submodules to run", then "Add submodule option" and add "drracket".

After this, when you run a module from within DrRacket, it will automatically run the `drracket` submodule, but this submodule will *not* be run from the command line (by default).

(I also uncheck the "main" submodule as I use this one only for the command line.)

HTH,

Laurent

Using Laurent’s suggestion, you can also create a global variable / parameter that will be set by the drracket submodule. That way, you can create running-in-drracket? and use it inside functions.

Hello Laurent and Sorawee,

this is exactly what I was looking for and it works like a charm.

I never realised that "Submodules to run" was an active UI element.
Probably one of the places where I should have RTExcellentM a bit more.

Thanks a lot,
s.
