Thanks a lot for this! I’ve only taken a quick look, but it basically looks good. Please add test cases, though. I’ll look more closely tomorrow.
I pushed a bunch of commits that get it building for me again. It uses Nix for local builds and CI, which keeps things reproducible, and I updated the documentation on how to build and test it. Your "fix native-image build" commit was merged, but the feature isn't.
Turns out, this feature is hanging the tests. I assume because there's a test that was doing something else and it is now being interpreted as wanting to read input, and that leads me to:
It's possible to want to evaluate the code -
as getting the value of -
, so we should use a separate option to specify input file, like -f <file>
.
I think there's a problem here with the line numbers and -l
when multiple forms are read from a file. We could probably send all the code in one message, but this disallows using this as a pipe. Is that the intent? Is it a good idea? Hrmm.
Thanks, I'll have a look at the tests next week, and will change -
to -f -
.
this disallows using this as a pipe. Is that the intent?
Yes, the reason I implemented this feature is that I was generating some code with babashka, and trying to pipe it to rep.
babashka looks nice!
I just realized that it's possible to use -
to accept input from stdin, although, you will have to distinguish between -
before and after --
, which tools.cli may not do.
Hi @eraserhd, I've rebased, added a CHANGELOG entry, updated the manpage, added a contributors section to the README, and checked in the patch.
It only reads from STDIN
now if arguments
is empty, i.e. if no expression is given. I figured that's good enough for now?
Thanks!
If you add a test, I’ll merge it.
If you can figure out how to make it preserve line numbers for code read from stdin, that would be really nice.
When no arguments are given then read from stdin instead. This way you can pipe code into
rep
.Also prints a nicer warning when no port number is given and it can't find
.nrepl-port
.
