Interesting idea. In obb eval and load-string should "just work"™️

so if jxa supports some kind of server thingie, we could use that to read from a socket or so and eval things

or we can just implement a full blown socket / nrepl server. #nbb already has this.

To put a pin in this line of reasoning — I need to read up more on nbb and jxa sounds like. I don’t have it fully thought through but it seems like in addition to the services thing discussed above, one possible distinguishing factor between the end result of the nbb approach and this is that in addition to having something that could be run as nbb script and be text-based, an obb output could be to create a .app folder with the obb / babashka binary copied inside, which then itself calls the script in question, eventually meaning that the ad-hoc scripting could be graphical on macOS and redistributable as mini .app files for users. The use case that comes to mind for me for this would be to more easily create small ‘script’-like things in CLJS that are easier for the non-tech-savvy to utilize — not unlike what Automator et al are supposed to do in the first place

oh right!

yeah, obb only needs a 1MB JS file btw, no babashka. So if you can make a .app folder that when executed launches the JS file + the script, then you're golden

Oh, of course, osascript is the binary! Okay — I need to do a little more thinking about this. I don’t want to go too far down a rabbit hole and realize that I’m jankily trying to recreate javafx or something
