Feature request: support for boolean operators

[mtruyens]

When debugging, I frequently want to know the evaluation of the individual components of a boolean expression. It would be cool if Debux could support and/or as special macros.

You can use dbgn in your case like this.

(defn qualified-keyword?
  "Return true if x is a keyword with a namespace"
  [x] (dbgn (and (keyword? x) (namespace x) true)))

(qualified-keyword? :hi/there)

{:ns examples.dbg, :line 140}
dbgn: (and (keyword? x) (namespace x) true) =>
| x =>
|   :hi/there
| (keyword? x) =>
|   true
| (namespace x) =>
|   "hi"
| (and (keyword? x) (namespace x) true) =>
|   true

Do you want to print the result using dbg like this, in the same way as in (dbg (-> ...))?

(defn qualified-keyword?
  "Return true if x is a keyword with a namespace"
  [x] (dbg (and (keyword? x) (namespace x) true)))

(qualified-keyword? :hi/there)

{:ns examples.dbg, :line 140}
dbg: (and (keyword? x) (namespace x) true) =>
| (keyword? x) =>
|   true
| (namespace x) =>
|   "hi"
| (and (keyword? x) (namespace x) true) =>
|   true

IIRC, when I tried a similar example yesterday, the results were difficult to use because of deeply nested forms being printed.

But I should then look into it again, you have clearly thought about this possibility in your design. Thanks!

I advise you to use dbg selectively inside dbgn like this, if you want to avoid printing a deeply nested structure inside dbgn.

(dbgn (and (dbg (deeply-nested-form ......)) (another-form ...) ...))

The above dbg will prevent dbgn from printing (deeply-nested-form ...) recursively.
