Errors building valval example on CentOS 8/vlang V 0.1.30 1ee5764

[lospejos]

Environment:
V 0.1.30 1ee5764
CentOS Linux release 8.2.2004 x86_64

V is compiled from sources.
When trying to run Valval example from https://github.com/valvalio/valval/blob/master/example/example.v

Getting plenty of errors. Among them:

~/.vmodules/valval/valval.v:200:2: error: unnecessary `()` in `if` condition, use `if expr {` instead of `if (expr) {`.
~/.vmodules/valval/valval.v:204:2: error: unnecessary `()` in `if` condition, use `if expr {` instead of `if (expr) {`.
~/.vmodules/valval/valval.v:233:22: error: unknown function: net.listen
~/.vmodules/valval/valval.v:234:29: error: unexpected `or` block, the function `accept` does not return an optional
~/.vmodules/valval/valval.v:235:20: error: unexpected `or` block, the function `close` does not return an optional
~/.vmodules/valval/valval.v:240:22: error: invalid argument 1 to `readall`: expected `net.Socket`, not `void`
~/.vmodules/valval/valval.v:243:26: error: unexpected `or` block, the function `write` does not return an optional
~/.vmodules/valval/valval.v:245:26: error: unexpected `or` block, the function `write` does not return an optional

etc

Is this Valval version functional/working? What V version does it support?

Full errors log is attached here:

Hi @lospejos !
The current version of Valval only supports v0.1.24 of V.
We're currently in the process of making sure it supports v0.1.30 but it's not yet done.

Hi @lospejos !
The current version of Valval only supports v0.1.24 of V.
We're currently in the process of making sure it supports v0.1.30 but it's not yet done.

Glad to hear it! I hope you'll successfully adopt Valval to a new versions of V. Do you have any estimations about when it will be approximately completed? Thanks!

[DavidSatimeWallin]

No estimations at all right now but I'm hoping maybe during Feb 2021

[lospejos]

BTW FYI there is a new V version 0.2 announced with a big changelog. Hope this will not break your upcoming updates of Valval.

[lospejos]

Authors told me, that all changes are in master branch of V, FYI

[DavidSatimeWallin]

Yeah I've seen, thanks for reminding though. Pretty much every release up until version 1 will mean lots of breaking stuff. It will not be possible for us to keep Valval supporting of every V-lang version until we hit v1 of V

Uh oh, Valval on V 0.2.2 broke down!

@dvwallin , I've got the same error as @huangrice
I'm using Linux Mint version 20 (Ulyana)

V version:
V 0.2.2 1305ca6

[DavidSatimeWallin]

Yeah valval is completely broken for V version 0.2+
There will be fixes for this but they've been slightly delayed.
Will probably spend todays stream working further on valval.
