What is everyone using to discover Clojure libs? Is there a resource similar to https://www.ruby-toolbox.com for Clojure? I’m aware of http://www.clojure-toolbox.com but was hoping for metrics similar to what Ruby Toolbox provides.
@jasoncof: perhaps the metrics on https://clojars.org/ itself are enough for you?
@jasoncof: also check out all of ClojureWerkz 😉
@crisptrutski: Thanks for the answer, Clojars has some nice metrics but it is missing the categorization, ranking, and social features of Ruby Toolbox.
@val_waeselynck: Thanks! I will check ClojureWerkz out.
for popularity the best metric is probably github stars
@crisptrutski: yeah, good point
http://crossclj.info can be interesting to discover stuff, and has “popularity” in terms of stats for usage..
but perhaps there’s an opening for your website that ties things together more 😉
I just type in the subject matter + Clojure, then look for libs that seem well maintained, with responsive issue tracking, etc.
@tom: I was going to suggest #C061V2K37 ... but not a huge amount of people there. What are you deploying - maybe just ask here.
Send uberjars over to an EC2 instance and stop the old and start the new--with the capability to start the jar on reboot, etc. I have seen an option (from a blog I don't recall but it's a popular one on clj) that requires adding code to my project for starting and stopping. But I don't want that. Would it work well to write a daemon or something?
tom: I use jsvc for this
it has a stop command, start, puts output in log files, etc.
@noisesmith: check out #C061V2K37 but also that's what I was referring to in my question there, jsvc and adding code to my project for that stuff I wasn't up for.
