Re: core.async top use cases

Actually, I am not sure clojure implements the actor model, which I can only construe as the Erlang actor model here. I am almost certain the core language explicitly does not: http://clojure.org/about/state It can be shoehorned somehow (see okku) but I would probably not venture saying clojure

Re: core.async top use cases

I'm no expert on this, but the Actor model and the CSP model seem to be two different ways to model a concurrent system. Clojure supports them both. Personally I find the CSP model a simpler and easier to understand one than Actors, and so pretty much default to it. You might find non-clojure r

Re: core.async top use cases

My bad. I was thinking of atomic. Swap! doesn't work with side effects, but send does. On Tuesday, September 20, 2016 at 2:50:53 AM UTC-4, Matan Safriel wrote: > > Thanks but I'm not entirely sure about this. I could use agents for side > effects too, or at least I thought so. Care to further cl

[ANN] beta.clojars.org: new Clojars infrastructure that needs testing

Hi folks We’re moving the Clojars infrastructure from Linode to the very kind folks at Rackspace. We’re getting close, and have a test server setup at beta.clojars.org. It has a copy of the live database as of a day ago, and is mirroring JARs from the live server. We’ve done testing of what we can

Re: In clojure.spec, how to declare all valid keys in a map

For stuff like this s/merge is probably preferable to s/and (when combining map specs) - the difference being that merge does not flow conformed results, will combine all failures, and that gen can work better in some cases. (s/def ::a int?) (s/def ::b string?) ;; changed for this example (s/e

In clojure.spec, how to declare all valid keys in a map

In clojure.spec, how can I declare a map that accepts only certain keys? *{::a 1 ::b 2 ::BAD 3}* does conform to *(s/keys :req :req [::a ::b])*, but I want a spec that will be bothered by ::BAD or any other undeclared key. My use case: I am introducing spec to some legacy code, and I want to b

[ANN] New releases: Glow 0.1.4 and Ultra 0.5.0

Fellow Clojurists - I'm happy to announce new releases of both Glow and Ultra. Glow is a library for syntax highlighting of Clojure source code. It uses ANTLR for parsing and lexing, which allows you to bypass concerns about accidentally evaluating the inpu

Re: Clojure support for Visual Studio Code

Hi Michael, 1. Showing a docstring on hover is a standard VSCode behavior. I don't think any extension should change it without a good reason. 2. I will investigate if it is possible to run repl from within VSCode. On the other hand, this behavior can be unexpected for some users. I believe, m
