Hi all, just started working through the tutorial on datomic, hitting a few road blocks. Any idea how to generate run

gpg --default-recipient-self -e \
    ~/.lein/credentials.clj > ~/.lein/credentials.clj.gpg

Enter the user ID.  End with an empty line: 
gpg: no valid addressees                     
gpg: /Users/Limix/.lein/credentials.clj: encryption failed: no such user id

@aramz: Do you require automated download of the peer library? If you’re just hoping to get started exploring Datomic, I would suggest skipping the GPG steps, downloading the Datomic Starter zip, and using bin/maven-install to install it into your local maven repo

Thanks @marshall, will do.

Hi @marshall, so I created the maven repo, but how do I register that repo with the musicbrainz sample project? I still get the follow error when trying lein repl:

Could not find artifact com.datomic:datomic-pro:jar:0.9.5130 in central ()
Could not find artifact com.datomic:datomic-pro:jar:0.9.5130 in clojars ()
This could be due to a typo in :dependencies or network issues.
If you are behind a proxy, try setting the 'http_proxy' environment variable.
Exception in thread "Thread-3" clojure.lang.ExceptionInfo: Could not resolve dependencies {:suppress-msg true, :exit-code 1}

Sorry I don’t know much about maven, does something need to be running?

everything seems to have built correctly after running bin/maven-install:

the project file in the mbrainz sample project:

  :source-paths ["src/clj" "examples/clj"]
  :jvm-opts ^:replace ["-Xmx2g" "-server"])

@aramz: You have a version mismatch - you bin/maven-installed version 0.9.5206 but you have 0.9.5130 in the project.clj file. Update the project.clj to 5206 and you should be good.

worked!

great

details! pay attention 😣

thank you

The pull api seems pretty amazing, am I wrong to think this is going to be the go to solution for building a graphdb backend?

are there other DBs that can shape data like this? Is it plausible to build a system that returns data straight out of datomic via the pull api, and not even have to remold the data at all? Just pass it through to a client?

with the pull api, is it possible to apply authorization rules to just part of a pattern?

@aramz The Pull API describes only the attributes you want to get out. Authorization rules would have be implemented in your application code.

@stuartsierra: thanks.

Does datomic use some sort of delta compression scheme in the indices?
