Hello ClojureScripters, I started to port the Hiccup library to ClojureScript. The goal is to have a port of Hiccup that has exactly the same api. This would make it possible to write views once (provided no platform specific code is used), and run them on the server with Clojure and on the client with ClojureScript.
At the moment I copied most of the Clojure files and made some modifications where necessary. The whole Hiccup testsuite runs fine in the browser, as well in a headless v8 session. However I have one last hurdle to take. Most macros I can use in Clojure and in ClojureScript with some minor adjustments, except the "defelem" macro in the "hiccup.def" namespace. To get this one running in ClojureScript I had to change it's implementation and move it to the "hiccup.macro" namespace. The problem with this macro is, that it uses the alter-var-root fn to add additional functionality to the given fn. As far as I can tell there is no alter-var-root in ClojureScript. I got the code running by using set! in the ClojureScript version. The original Clojure macro: https://github.com/r0man/hiccup/blob/clojurescript/src/clj/hiccup/def.clj#L38 The ClojureScript macro: https://github.com/r0man/hiccup/blob/clojurescript/src/clj/hiccup/macro.clj#L13 Is anyone aware of a solution that would share the same code and work in both cases? Are there plans to add alter-var-root to ClojureScript as well? Thanks, Roman. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
