Trouble running simple slurp

[Andy Hull]

I have a trivial example I'm trying to get running:

import rapture.io._
import rapture.core._
import rapture.uri._
import rapture.net._
import rapture.fs._
import strategy.throwExceptions

object ReleaseScribe extends App { uri"http://rapture.io".slurp[Char] }

Compiling this hits the following error:

Cannot find implicit StreamReader for rapture.net.HttpUrl resources. rapture.net.HttpUrl resources can only be read if a StreamReader implicit exists within scope.

What am I doing wrong here?

Cheers,

So, what you've written there is all good, except it doesn't know how to interpret bytes as characters, so you'll need to specify a character encoding.

In Rapture 0.10 (as-yet unreleased) this is done with:

   import encodings.`UTF-8` // or whatever encoding you prefer!

though in Rapture 0.9 (which I think is what you're using) you'll need this somewhere in scope:

   implicit val enc = Encodings.`UTF-8`


I realised that the error message you saw isn't that helpful at pointing you towards the missing encoding being the problem, so in later versions, the message does tell you that you need an encoding if you're working with `Char`s!

Cheers,

Ah that's awesome. That's what I was missing!

Thanks,
