(defn ^:foo bar []) is equivalent to
(defn ^{:foo true} bar []) is equvalent to
(defn bar {:foo true} [])
In the first two cases, the metadata is actually applied to the bar symbol
(by the Clojure reader) and then copied over to the #'bar Var. In the
latter case, the #'bar Var gets the metadata d
Got it, thanks.
I think you still need to prepend ^'s to the metadata.

That's misleading. In the case of convention function names, (index, show,
create), there's default :route metadata that is used automatically ... the
docstrings are merely supplying a reminder.
This is described in the "Getting Started" page:

Rook is considerably more opinionated than Liberator and is based on
extending the Ring metaphor: building up the functionality of the web
application by introducing layers of middleware.
The explicit goal is a mapping of URIs to endpoint functions within a
namespace, and the introduction of custo

the beginning of the docstring and not the actual metadata. Is there an
option to put this info in the metadata of the var?

Rook is a set of middleware and handlers to enable metadata-based routing
for Ring web applications.
The intention is to expose a Clojure namespace as a web service resource;
there’s a default mapping of HTTP verbs and paths to function names; these
can be extended or overridden by metadata on the
