Clojurians Log v2

@mfikes @anmonteiro do you folk think that we are ready to add something like find-var in self-host implementations? I don't see why not but maybe I am missing something. In particular I was looking at porting cljs-tooling to self-host and that's the only thing I am missing

@richiardiandrea I can't see how it wouldn't work. In fact, you might be able to use cljs.core/resolve for now even without it.

cool thanks for the answer, it would be indeed cool to add

Planck also has a (slightly more dynamic) planck.core/resolve if you need to support the case where the symbol isn't a compile-time constant.

yeah I think that's the case for completion

The implementation is trivial now that eval is a thing:

(let [sym 'cljs.core/map]  (eval `(~'var ~sym)))

wow that works also in lumo now, just tried 😄

F yeah

ah ah!

(meta (let [sym 'cljs.core/filter]  (eval `(~'var ~sym))))
{:ns cljs.core,
 :name filter,
 :file "cljs/core.cljs",
 :end-column 13,
 :top-fn {:variadic false,
          :max-fixed-arity 2,
          :method-params ([pred] [pred coll]),
          :arglists ([pred] [pred coll]),
          :arglists-meta (nil nil)},
 :column 1,
 :line 5099,
 :end-line 5099,
 :arglists ([pred] [pred coll]),
 :doc "Returns a lazy sequence of the items in coll for which\n  (pred item) returns true. pred must be free of side-effects.\n  Returns a transducer when no collection is provided.",
 :test nil}

ok, reminder here: https://github.com/anmonteiro/lumo/issues/397 thanks Mike!

I'm glad you didn't bowdlerize my speech 🙂

lol should I 😄

An F bomb every now and then is a good thing, as is juxt

it was very genuine 😄

New word, nice. Sticking that one into my toolkit.

I think to match find-var you need to check that the argument is a symbol? but not a simple-symbol?

I also added one to Planck https://github.com/planck-repl/planck/issues/743

Support for Lumo has landed in doo https://github.com/bensu/doo/commit/830f52b3620b24b8351503b6554dd03de1f317d8

wow, sorry for my ignorance, but I did not know about simple-symbol?

thanks

oh nice

on another note, I will be porting cljs-tooling to self-host as well: https://github.com/clojure-emacs/cljs-tooling/pull/24

it has not been as bad as I thought it would be
