@borkdude I’m able to copy-ns that problematic namespace now

I was searching around for examples again to figure out what the current recommended way to handle macros is. It seems like if I add ^:macro metadata to an ordinary defn, clojure sees it differently and I can’t call it normally anymore, so I can’t just pull out all my macro implementations into ^:macro-anotated versions that I can then directly add to sci via copy-var.

I am somehow confused about :macro and :sci/macro and how that fits together

right now I’m (a) pulling out my macro implementations into their own functions, and then (b) creating yet another function that I tag with ^:macro to copy-var into sci, and that seems like maybe more work than should be needed

eg.

;; implementation fn
(defn redef:impl [form env name & args] ...)

;; macro
(defmacro redef [name & args] (apply redef:impl &form &env name args))

;; sci version
(defn ^:macro redef:sci [form env name & args] (apply redef:impl &form &env name args))

;; elsewhere, adding to the namespace 
{'redef (copy-var redef:sci the-ns)}
