BTW, mqueue is really cool if you've not had a chance to mess around with it. It gives you a queueing system that works at the Kernel level. It lets you send messages between processes (IPC) and is pretty freakin' fast.
Effectively it creates a file in your file system (prefixed with `/dev/mqueue` on my system) that your processes can publish and reach messages to/from.
Just added a GitHub action to my CLIPSmqueue repo[1] that runs the full test suite when new commits are pushed. Seeing that little green checkmark next to the commit message is so satisfying.
Took a break from my next biggest CLIPS library (tm) to add some more functionality to clipsruby. Now not only can you call Ruby from within CLIPS, but you can call CLIPS Deffunctions from within your Ruby application!

I put together another CLIPS library, this time for SQLite. Run SQL queries from within your CLIPS rules engine!
I'm on a roll lately! I just made the CLIPSX11 and CLIPS1wm repos public. The first is a wrapper library around X11, the second is a window manager written using the former. Check them out:

Now back to my other side project 🤯🤓
Today I published a JSON parser written in COOL, CLIPS's Object Oriented Language: https://github.com/mrryanjohnston/COOLJSON
This is the culmination of a few years of learnings and plenty of failed attempts along the way. Feels good to get something working finally :)
Ever wanted to try CLIPS but didn't want to compile it yourself? Or maybe you just prefer to run things from Docker? I added a repo on Docker Hub so that you can!

Simple run this to get a CLIPS repl:
docker run --rm -it mrryanjohnston/clips
Easy!
Just published my next CLIPS-based project: Tour of CLIPSraylib!
https://ryjo.codes/tour-of-clipsraylib.html
It provides a textarea with CLIPS code in it, and it lets you run that code, rendering the program to the canvas element on the same page using raylib.
I created a new example in CLIPSraylib! Behold: multiple stateful animated sprites that have independently controllable framerates.
Besides the original "scarfy" animation by Eiden Marsal, I drew the other sprites in Aseprite! It's an awesome program for creating animated pixel art. Give it a looksee if you haven't had the chance to do so.
