~@ together is called Tilda Ampersand Operator.

‘@’ is not an “ampersand”.
‘&’ is an “ampersand”.

Hey Alexander:

I have no idea how to create transparent background version using my mindmapping tool. Will spend some time … if I succeed I will surely share it.

Can you please provide a transparent-background version?

Awesome!, thanks for sharing.
Did you use some Data Visualization tool? or it’s just hand-write?

Thanks!

Hi,
I am looking
g at your project. It looks interesting. I downloaded part 1 and ran lein deps.
How do i run it to see what it is doing.?
I am trying to learn Clojure.

Thank you, I need to read a lot of macro examples to understand it.

Comment on Parsing XML in Clojure by Otavio Macedo

Hey, Siva,

I have been playing with your example, making slight changes to understand what each function does. Could you explain me why does this code doesn’t work?

(get-value xml :friends :person :name)

Thank you

Comment on Leiningen – Adding git submodule to Leiningen project by dave

dave — Sat, 17 Dec 2011 04:54:04 +0000

however, if you add the :checkout-deps-shares option this can be resolved and you can include these dependencies

e.g:

:checkout-deps-shares [:source-path :test-path
~(fn [p] (str (:root p) “/lib/*”))]

I am not sure, yet, as to whether this will work if you had more checkouts in a checkouts module.
My suspicion would be no. but I have not looked.

This is a useful feature,

but, you will need to include all of the module dependencies manually, “lein deps” will not look into submodules

Siva, great post!

When I run “lein run address_book.core start”, lein reports the following error.

Exception in thread “main” java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: clojure.lang.RestFn.(I)V (params.clj:1)
at clojure.lang.Compiler.eval(Compiler.java:5440)
at clojure.lang.Compiler.eval(Compiler.java:5415)

Stack trimmed. Any thoughts on this error?

Thanks!

In src/address_book/core.clj there is a start function. You can call that in a repl to start the server.

I try to run “http://localhost:8080″ and I get an error. I run Vista OS What makes the server active?
Thanks

First of all thanks for this great tutorial!, in just a few minutes you can see a web application up and running with Clojure.
Just a quick comment, I had to add this line: “:repl-init address_book.webserver” to project.clj and then run: “lein repl” instead of “lein swank”. Otherwise my browser stayed loading forever and nothing happened.
Thanks again for all this info!

The repl line doesn’t work any more :

address_book% lein repl src/address_book/core.clj
Wrong number of arguments to repl task.
Expected ([] [project])

It looks like the best way to achieve that is to add:
:repl-init address_book.core
to the project.clj file – then you can run “lein repl”.

Thanks a lot Simon …

OK, the problem is, there is no ‘edit-address-form’ so that the anonymous function defined at line 48 of address_list.js never gets called. If in both address_book.js and address_list.js, you replace all instances of ‘edit-address-form’ with ‘address-form’, the address to be edited gets loaded into the form on RHS of the index.html page. However, when the address is edited and the ‘create’ button pressed, although the log shows ‘Processing :put /addresses/1′, the address does not get updated.

Still investigating.

Two more minor things: the tutorial security-policy allows access to ‘addresses’ but not to ‘addresses.*’; consequently an attempt to edit an address results in ‘Processing :get /permission-denied’ appearing in the log (no error shown to the user).

When that change is made, an attempt to edit an address results in ‘Processing :get /addresses/1′ appearing in the log but no change appears on the screen – the address is /not/ loaded into the form. However as browsing to ‘http://localhost:8080/addresses/1′ results in

‘{“id”:”1″,”name”:”Siva Jagadeesan”,”street1″:”88 7th”,”street2″:”#203″,”city”:”Cupertino”,”country”:”USA”,”zipsourcecode”:98802}’

appearing in the browser, I suspect this is an issue either of templating or JavaScript rather than of authentication.

Still investigating, will post a fix when I find it.
