Morning

@otfrom also feel free to post to the channel 😅

It is a sekrit morning just for us

🤫

it turns out the files I was reading were had lines enclosed in "" hence it not working. I just assumed they were correct as previously this had worked, but something must have changed somewhere/sometime.

yes

then why are you expecting to get a map and not a string from read?

surely edn/read returns clojure data? or am I mistaken? (that is how it works for me in the REPL at least)

if what you’re reading starts with a string it will return that string:

(clojure.edn/read-string "\"hello\" {:foo :bar}")
;; => "hello"

note that edn/read expects a reader and a reader is stateful

does the file you’re reading start with a string?
