From ef42cd452ec61de188b5d7e03060af94d1d24a25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: peteyboy Date: Mon, 14 Feb 2022 07:04:32 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Added javascript Life Viewer to template, adjusted the HTML template to work with it and the ordered lists and using the existing textareas (thank goodness it already used textarea!) Cleaned the one-page conditional logic to use UNLESS and work right, and also to let RLE put into input box just slip through into the RLE output box and thus get plugged into the Life Viewer Added more comments --- wordle-life.cgi | 198 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 181 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) diff --git a/wordle-life.cgi b/wordle-life.cgi index acd55bb..28ed5d2 100755 --- a/wordle-life.cgi +++ b/wordle-life.cgi @@ -7,13 +7,15 @@ use lib qw( /usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.24.0 /meta/p/peteyboy/perl5/lib/perl5 ); use CGI::Tiny; use Mojo::Template; use Mojo::Loader 'data_section'; -#use Routes::Tiny; +#use Routes::Tiny; #don't even need use Readonly; - my $ORIGIN_PAGE = "/wordle-life.cgi"; + my $ORIGIN_PAGE = "/wordle-life-f.cgi"; my $defaulttext = "Paste your wordle share here"; cgi { + + #error handler from the CGI:Tiny cookbook my $cgi = $_; $cgi->set_error_handler(sub { @@ -34,22 +36,34 @@ use Readonly; my $method = $cgi->method; my $rle = ""; + #Simple switch: make a one page app, and always go back to the same page. + #GET or HEAD loads the page blank, POST runs the Life file maker if ($method eq 'GET' or $method eq 'HEAD') { - $wordle = $defaulttext; - } elsif ($method eq 'POST') { - $wordle = $cgi->body_param('wordle-result'); #textarea name - if ($wordle =~ /\Q$defaulttext\E/){ - - }else{ - $rle = generate_rle($wordle); + $wordle = $defaulttext; + #$wordle = ""; + } elsif ($method eq 'POST') { + #textarea name, pull the value from POST and reload into textarea + $wordle = $cgi->body_param('wordle-result'); + + #if input textarea not changed from default text, do nothing + unless ($wordle =~ /\Q$defaulttext\E/) { + #[Cc] /){ #cheat, if they put in something that looks like an RLE, pass output through + if ($wordle =~ /^#[Cc] /){ + $rle = $wordle; + #if none of that, do the thing: generate RLE + }else{ + $rle = generate_rle($wordle); } + } - } else { - $cgi->set_response_status(405)->render; - exit; - } + } else { #some other request?

Play your Wordle Share score in Conway's Life!

+

+

Hey, nerds, isn't it funny how the Wordle Scores can look like a glider in that old computer programming exercise, Conway's Life?

Glider image from Conwaylife.org, it looks like an 8-bit staple gun + +
    +
  1. +

    Paste your wordle share below and submit to convert it to a Conway's Life file so you can run it (to learn more about Conway's Life, read this).

    + + +
    + + + +

    +
    +
  2. +
  3. +

    Click "Submit" and and RLE format file for Conway's Game of Life will appear in the box below and get loaded into the Life Viewer.

    + + +
  4. +
  5. +

    Watch your Wordle score play LIFE!

    +
    + + + +

    If the RLE is correct, it should be loaded in the Life Viewer, and so you are ready to go!

    + +
      +
    • For best results with the Life Viewer, adjust the Zoom and the playback speed (from "1x", slide left to "3/s" or so) and press the Play button:

      +
    • +
    • Press "[Pause]" when it seems stable.

      +
    • +
    +
    +
  6. +
+ + + +

+ +

This should work with the share/copy button in wordle, or copy/pasting your friends' wordles out of Discord or wherever as well. See whose Wordle Score runs the coolest! + +

+If it doesn't seem to be working: +

    +
  1. If there is extra text or lines in your paste, you might not get a valid file in the box above, so look and make sure it looks like a proper RLE file, for example: +

    +

    +#C Wordle 235 3/6
    +x = 5,y = 3
    +boobo$bobbo$ooooo$
    +
    + +

    For details about the Life RLE file format above, read this. + +

  2. + +
  3. You can also copy the contents of the Conway Life box above and try it somewhere else: +
      +
    1. go to a Conway's Life site, such as this one at copy.sh or this one at lazyslug.com and load and run your file.
    2. +
        +
      1. specifically for the one at copy.sh:
      2. +
      3. Press the [Import] button at the top
      4. +
      5. paste in your Life file contents in the box and press [Import]
      6. +
      7. It will put up a box telling you it loaded your Wordle, press [OK]
      8. +
      9. Press the [Run] button and watch your Wordle score play LIFE!
      10. +
      +
    +
