Website down?

[ianhlavats]

The website sharkorm.com appears to be down... the page is throwing errors like:

Warning: preg_replace(): Compilation failed: invalid range in character class at offset 4 in /homepages/37/d253510846/htdocs/clickandbuilds/Shark/wp-content/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/crayon_langs.class.php on line 340

@editfmah do you need help with this project?? SharkORM is too cool not to survive. Please let us know how we can help you.

@ianhlavats, hey thanks for letting me know. Looks like a php upgrade on my host has taken it out. And yes, I would love some help, it still does get development from time to time but the big piece was my port to swift, which was just too bigger piece of work to do in one stage.

The error I made, was trying to convert what is there to SwiftyShark, but actually it makes more sense to start again if I can solve the following issues:

• Method swizzle from Swift
• classFromString(), when module cannot see the owning application.

If you look at the sister project:
https://github.com/sharksync/switchblade

That has some of the work I wished to achieve in it, but pure swift implementation is just not possible, as you cannot update codable objects, so the service only works one way.

Hi @editfmah ,

I would be happy to help. Will focus on the PRs on SharkORM for now but give me some time to get my head around your Swift migration project and I'll try to help you.

Have you considered keeping some of the code as Objective-C where Swift does not provide a suitable equivalent API?

Regards,
Ian

I had a dream of a swift package, which used to be very hard to achieve with a bridging header. But that may no longer be an issue tbh..
