error reading gapminder.lisp about plot

[snunez1]

What platform are you on? I just tried this on MS Windows 10:

LS-USER> (asdf:load-system :plot/vega)
; compilation output...
LS-USER> (data :gapminder)
T

I just had a look at the raw data file and don't see anything unusual, except possibly the lack of a newline at the end?

My version of yason is yason-20220707, updated from quicklisp not too long ago (within the month).

My guess is that it's something to do with the file. Try downloading it and loading from disk so that we can experiment with various line/file endings and ensure the syntax is correct. It might possibly be a problem with Dexador too.

Hmm... I'm on macOS 12.5.1 on SBCL. I'll start digging. Thanks!

If I download the file and then load it, everything is fine. It's clearly not all of the vega example files as, e.g., barley works fine.

I wonder if there is a dexador option for this problem? @slyrus, did you find a solution?

This was a bug in dexador and has since been fixed. It should work with the next dist of quicklisp.

In the meantime, you can either clone dexador locally or apply the attached patch to your local copy of dfio.

Thanks @tobyWorland. Closing.
