Hello, Clojurians! We all know that Clojure is *awesome* "in the small" — it's a pleasure to develop stuff with it on the level of a function or namespace. However, what still evades me is how to program in Clojure "in the large": how to structure, say, web service in general; how should you manage threads; how to keep/reload configs; how component dependencies should be described and so on. It's all nice and clean when we have a cute little demo application for Liberator or fnhouse, but at least my code gets messy fast when different threads/threadpools, configs and start/stop logic are thrown in. Of course there is a bunch of attempts to provide libraries for this problem, here are a few that I'm aware of:
— https://github.com/stuartsierra/component — it's widely used and is a cornerstone of many other libraries. Not really a complete solution, but a useful part of the puzzle. — https://github.com/RedBrainLabs/system-graph — combines component and Prismatic's plumbing. Looks nice, but last commit was made half a year ago. — https://github.com/juxt/jig — component plus configs plus bells-and-whistles. Looks a bit too big for me. — http://puppetlabs.com/blog/clojure-nerds-puppet-labs-application-services — full-blown application services framework. Looks interesting and maintained. — yet-unreleased Graph-based Prismatic framework that they've mentioned a few times. Am I missing something? What do you use? What do you think about your own code? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
