lumo 2017-05-26 | Slack Archive

I've probably asked this before, but I didn't make a note and google isn't helping...

If I wanted to use lumo for the kind of scripting things I do w/ bash/awk/sed is there something I should read? Is it lumo or a node tutorial I need to be looking at?

which makes me think that I need to be looking at a node tutorial and think a lot about interop (which is fine, but then I'm wondering which node things I should be reading)

otfrom14:05:03

npm install of lumo 1.5.0 went very well. Nice experience. 🙂

otfrom15:05:42

and found the node api docs here: https://nodejs.org/api/

(I know this is all numpty stuff)

otfrom15:05:23

ah, and this little example will get me going https://dzone.com/articles/execute-unix-command-nodejs

Glad it went well

otfrom15:05:05

@anmonteiro thx for making it really smooth

anmonteiro15:05:06

Yeah, most stuff you wanna look at for now is Node.js

anmonteiro15:05:41

Eventually we'll have CLJS idiomatic wrappers for that stuff

otfrom15:05:05

a lot of my scripting is dealing w/dates, talking to aws, calling unix commands and processing text (from files or stdin). So as long as I can do that, then I can start to use lumo on a daily basis and that is where I'd like to be

anmonteiro15:05:27

👍

otfrom15:05:09

@anmonteiro even just knowing that you expect that I should use node things via interop is a really good steer. Knowing that you want to move towards idiomatic cljs stuff is even better. 😄

anmonteiro15:05:45

We do have some CLJS namespaces already though

anmonteiro15:05:01

Problem is they're not documented anywhere... yet

otfrom15:05:08

where would I find out about those? I'd like to follow your example 😄

otfrom15:05:20

and where are you starting to document. Happy to wikignome as I go along

anmonteiro15:05:40

Entire CLJS & Closure is there, Transit, Fipp, and more

anmonteiro15:05:06

They'll eventually be documented in a website to which people can send PRs
