rick_hthumper: ping, see the PR on the juju version go by. Just wanted to check is the actual need functionality available or juju version specifically?14:33
wallyworldrick_h: zup14:38
rick_hwallyworld I see the PR on the juju version go by. Just wanted to check is the actual need functionality available or juju version specifically?14:39
rick_hwallyworld: I always get afraid checking juju version numbers (especially point releases) will turn into nightmares down the road14:39
wallyworldwe've sort of been down this road a bit before - we couldn't agree on a clean way to advertise capabilities. the charm folks just want version14:39
rick_hwallyworld: and much prefer feature checks vs version checks and we went through a lot of this when we added the min_juju_version in charms in an attempt to not specify a single version but make sure things assumed forward compatible14:40
rick_hwallyworld: ok, just wante to dbl check it wasn't a drive by thing without bigger audience14:40
wallyworldjuju_version is analogoues to min version14:40
* rick_h sits in his desk and sees single PR since he's far away and wanted to dbl check14:40
wallyworldno worries, thanks for asking14:41
wallyworldthere's still time to refine before relase14:41
wallyworldi'll be syncing with the charm folks again14:41
rick_hwallyworld: yea, I'd be curios how the charmers will make sure that there's common tools for charm authors to express to users "this failed/errored/won't work because of your juju version" clearly14:41
rick_hso that users don't have to debug the stuff14:42
rick_hmin_juju_version at least fails early and clearly while this could be in deep hook context during some relation/config change and such14:42
wallyworldrick_h: it's more that the openstack folks want to say "what version of juju is running, if not 2.3 or later, then X won't be there"14:42
rick_hwallyworld: right, but once the tool is there people will use it how they wish14:42
rick_hwallyworld: not just in the clean way some folks want to use it14:43
wallyworldthat's true of any feature right?14:43
wallyworldit's meant to alleviate the need for charm helpers to have all these try/except blocks14:44
