Persistent REPL history improvements #2363

Open vspinu opened 6 years ago

vspinu commented 6 years ago

I am opening this as a restart of #2353.

Would be nice to have:

  1. project level persistent REPL history customized directly by cider-repl-history-file. Some ideas on the implementation:

    • if that file is relative, then the history should be relative to current project or directory
    • if a function, function is called with no arguments and should return a file
    • if a cons, car is file to be used for REPLS started outisde projects and cdr for those within projects
    • on remotes it's a bit tricky but I think tramp-auto-save-directory should be used to store history.
    • consider using backup-directory-alist for the history file or at lest offer it as an option
    1. history should be differentiated between types of repls clj/cljs
    2. have history on by default?

All of those are great ideas and most should be pretty easy to implement.

history should be differentiated between types of repls clj/cljs

I think it makes a lot of sense to keep this history separate, although we can make this configurable in the spirit of Emacs.

have history on by default?
