in the repl buffer can you type m-x describe-key and then press enter? Want to see what [RET] is bound to in your repl

its possible it is sending a newline and not “hey CIDER eval this input” so you’re not seeing a hanging repl but a waiting repl

good thought.

it seems to be bound to paredit-RET

yeah that doesn’t seem helpful

what’s the cider function to invoke?

cider-repl-return i think

yup! you’re right

why would that have magically changed…

(i don’t rly expect an answer to that lol)

try control-j

thanks for your help!

that’s actually my preferred setup. enter enters newlines so i can easily make multi-line stuff. control-j sends the input

ctrl-j is bound to paredit-C-j

the weird thing is, it was working fine on friday

today was the first time i started working on clj since then

whatever

does control-j work? paredit-C-j might delegate out

nope

womp

you’ve recently updated paredit

same behavior as paredit-RET

@UPEKQ7589 thanks

emacs is great but also horrible lol

packages shouldn’t randomly update

lol, I wish packages didn’t declare such common keybindings

indeed

i greatly appreciate both of your help

yeah up until now i haven’t needed to do that.

this is my cider config currently:

(use-package cider
  :bind (:map cider-mode-map
	      ("C-c M-p" . cider-pprint-eval-last-sexp)
	      :map cider-repl-mode-map
	      ("C-c M-o" . cider-repl-clear-buffer)
	      ("C-c M-l" . cider-repl-switch-to-other))
  :config
  (require 'bind-key)
  (add-hook 'cider-repl-mode-hook #'company-mode)
  (add-hook 'cider-mode-hook #'company-mode)
  ;; (setq org-babel-clojure-backend 'cider)
  )

looks like i’ll have to add another entry to cider-repl-mode-map

What do you mean? Like ::namespace-alias/?

In addition, I think you’ll find a lot of us have moved from company to corfu

No, like ns/ e.g. clojure.core/

Using cider and corfu, I see this:

are you using LSP?

Nope

completion-at-point-functions is a variable defined in 'minibuffer.el'.

Its value is (cider-complete-at-point t)
Local in buffer core.clj; global value is 
(tags-completion-at-point-function)

@UPEKQ7589 is corfu generally preferred over company by most emacs users these days, or mainly just by cider users?

I don’t know if I’m really any sort of authoritative source here. I’ve seen corfu usage mirror the use of the vertico/marginalia/consult stack

ok. thanks

I use Ivy and company, no issue here

I doubt the lack of completion is from Emacs side, probably Cider not returning the candidates

Though it works fine for me

What's better about corfu?

I think corfu is just better integrated into emacs existing code completion utilities (completion-at-point)

From their README,

Corfu is a small package, which relies on the Emacs completion facilities and concentrates on providing a polished completion UI.

Hum, that's not saying much.

But dude, it's polished

That emphasis comes from me. You’re welcome to read more about it https://github.com/minad/corfu

Seems the only difference with company is that Corfu takes over completion-at-point , I'm not sure I agree that's a good thing, Corfu monkey patches Emacs it seems, so that completion-at-point no longer behaves as standard, but is taken over by corfu. Is that really better?

Company automatically includes all results from Emacs standard completion, so its compatible with all standard Emacs completions as well. It probably is a bit of a personal preference matter. Thanks for showing it to me. I use spacemacs, so anyways I probably just need to wait for it to decide to switch
