Is there a common pattern for tracking namespaces to handle auto-resolving keywords, symbols, and prefixed maps?

@nbtheduke There are options you can provide to sexpr how to render those, but there isn't any logic to parse ns forms and track ns state. In edamame that would be done like this:

(require '[clojure.test :as t])
(e/parse-string "::t/foo" {:auto-resolve (fn [x] (if (= :current x) *ns* (get (ns-aliases *ns*) x)))})
:clojure.test/foo

It could maybe be useful to have something like:

(def x (rewrite.namespace/parse-ns-form ns-form-node)) ;; static ns form parsing, no evaluation in the host

@nbtheduke Actually, in grasp, I abuse SCI to emulate the ns state

https://github.com/borkdude/grasp/blob/80736ee4499a9fcedaa1b15a0e66857a52b282b8/src/grasp/impl.clj#L14-L97

So you create a context with SCI, then evaluate those namespace forms in the SCI context, so it won't pollute the host

and then you can query the SCI context what aliases there are in the "current" namespace, etc

That’s clever. I’m using edamame right now with the rudimentary ns handling you suggested a while back but thinking of switching back to rewrite-clj cuz I need the zipper api for a feature I’m planning.

I’ll look at how grasp does it, maybe I can rely on sci too
