Clojurians Log v2

There’s a JS library for it in examples, forgot the name, not at kbd right now

oh yes, the lib is called "chalk"

$ npx nbb -e '(println "\u001b[1;31mbold-red text\u001b[0m")'
bold-red text

Uhh yeah I remember chalk, I think recently they had a security breach though?

Thanks! I should have posted that I got the answer from claude (it was the same) 😅

https://semgrep.dev/blog/2025/chalk-debug-and-color-on-npm-compromised-in-new-supply-chain-attack/

isn't that solved by now?

but yeah you can just go with the claude answer :)

That's fair now that you mention it. I suppose they were compromised only for 8-ish hours and the version was deprecated... anyway curious how a more minimal implementation will work out

(ns my-project.colors
  (:require
   [clojure.string :as s]))

(defn color
  [color strs]
  (let [s (s/join " " strs)]
    (str "\033[" color "m" s "\033[0m")))

(defn black
  [& strs]
  (color 30 strs))

(defn red
  [& strs]
  (color 31 strs))

(defn green
  [& strs]
  (color 32 strs))

(defn yellow
  [& strs]
  (color 33 strs))

(defn blue
  [& strs]
  (color 34 strs))

(defn magenta
  [& strs]
  (color 35 strs))

(defn cyan
  [& strs]
  (color 36 strs))

(defn white
  [& strs]
  (color 37 strs))

(defn default
  [& strs]
  (color 39 strs))

nice :)

I'm not sure why you would use this in nbb?

I'm running a server in nbb that serves a page running scittle. I would like to start the proxy to the page in the server process.

well a similar thing could be written in nbb, but it's written in JVM Clojure / babashka right now, so this requires work

perhaps an LLM is willing to do the tedious translation :)

perhaps I already made a start in squint btw, I'm doing a similar thing there to support nrepl in the browser (in a branch right now)

this is also written in node

(https://github.com/squint-cljs/squint/tree/browser-nrepl)

(https://github.com/squint-cljs/squint/blob/b2d72f5f7d52bd2faab1b529b2d4493cee1b80b3/src/squint/repl/nrepl_server.cljs)

oh excellent, thank you!

@borkdude I tried using bb to create the nrepl proxy (which I think succeeded). However, when connecting with clojure -T:nrepl :port 1339, there is no prompt. However, if I kill the proxy process, then rebel also quits, so there must be some kind of connection, but no eval prompt. I can also see the websocket in the browser dev tools, so the scittle part seems to be working as well. I have to sections with x-scittle, is that a problem?

do you mean two? no that's fine

maybe refreshing the browser helps

doesn't help, but if I refresh and the proxy is not running, I get an error in the browser console

I had to do this for cljs-josh - maybe you can re-use the code: https://github.com/chr15m/cljs-josh/blob/main/josh.cljs#L36-L247
