support for logging Clojure data structures #11

Open darwin opened 8 years ago

darwin commented 8 years ago

We could specify a structured format and a wire protocol for printing/expanding Clojure data structures in a similar way how cljs-devtools work for ClojureScript.

cljs-devtools could then connect to a backend library via websocket and act as a rich logging console for Clojure projects. With support from Dirac DevTools we could turn Chrome's DevTools into a nice REPL + logger for Clojure (not only for ClojureScript).

I personally do most of my work on client-side, so it is unlikely for me to spend time on it at this point. But I would be happy to help someone else who would be interested in implementing it to integrate it (I would do the JavaScript part on front-end).

Yeah, this is something I had in mind but much more powerful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c52QhiXsmyI
