Is there any trick to make this work without passing the data directly or using eval?
(defmacro pair-defs [data]
(cons 'do
(for [[k v] data]
`(def ~k ~v))))
(def data '((a 1) (b 2) (c 3)))
(pair-defs data)
If your data var is defined in namespace before the macro call,you can use some namespace manipulating functions to resolve it's value by name:
(defmacro pair-defs [data]
`(do ~#(for [[k v] #(ns-resolve *ns* data)]
`(def ~k ~v))))
user> (def data [['a 10] ['b 20]])
#'user/data
user> (pair-defs data)
#'user/b
or to handle both literal data and data by var name:
(defmacro pair-defs [data]
(let [dt (if (symbol? data) #(ns-resolve *ns* data) data)]
`(do ~#(for [[k v] dt]
`(def ~k ~v)))))
the call is expanded to the desired form: (do (def a 10) (def b 20))
So resolving the namespace val without dirty tricks like eval is totally possible, but i find it to be quite an unneeded usage of macros. For example your task is easily replaceable by plain function call.
(defn pair-defs1 [data]
(doseq [[k v] data]
(intern *ns* k v)))
it would work on any data sequence, be it local or global, literal or generated

I know how to extract one attribute using zip-xml/attr, but how to extract multiple attributes?
e.g I have the following
<table>
<column name="col1" type="varchar" length="8"/>
<column name="col2" type="varchar" length="16"/>
<column name="col3" type="int" length="16"/>
<table>
And the expected result is. A silly way is to call zip-xml/attr for each attribute, but is there any elegant way to do that?
[["co11" "varchar" 8] [["co12" "varchar" 16] [["co13" "int" 16]
My advice is to use a tree-walking function to extract the interesting data from the XML tree. clojure.walk has several of these, but here I use tree-seq from core clojure to just produce a seq of nodes and work on that. This function takes two functions - a branch? predicate which checks if a node can have children and a children function which gets them. I use :content for both, as tags with no nested tags produce nil, which is a falsey value and so it works also as a predicate.
(->> (clojure.xml/parse "res/doc.xml") ;;source file for your xml
(tree-seq :content :content) ;; Produce a seq by walking the tree
(filter #(= :column (:tag %))) ;;Take only :column tags
(mapv (comp vec vals :attrs)))
;;Collect the values of the :attrs maps into vectors
;;and collect those into a vector with mapv
Your desired output had unmatched square brackets, but I assume it should be like
[["col1" "varchar" "8"] ["col2" "varchar" "16"] ["col3" "int" "16"]]
which was my return value. However, this is potentially brittle - you're relying on the maps returned by clojure.xml/parse preserving the ordering of the attributes in the XML in order to know what the data means. That's not really part of the contract of maps. As an implementation detail it creates clojure.lang.PersistentStructMaps which apparently do have this feature, but it might not always be so.
Alternatively you could use just (mapv :attrs) to keep the whole of the map in there.
The right solution depends on how large and complex the XML is and to some extent, what you know about its structure. If it needs to be very generic, then you need to have quite a lot of logic to navigate the nodes etc. However, if it is a known format and you know what nodes you are interested in, its pretty straight-forward.
I used clojure.zip to create a zipper from the XML file and then use clojure.data.zip.xml to extract the nodes/paths I was interested in. I then defined simple helper functions to process specific nodes. This was pretty much my first bit of clojure and I've not yet gone back to it to re-factor it and refine/clarify some of my very rough clojure idioms based on what I've learnt since, but in the spirit of an example being worth 1000 words, here it is -

Magos's answer using tree-seq is perfectly fine, but there's no reason to abandon zippers; filtering using zippers is more succinct and the arguably the "clojure" way. (note this example uses data.xml ([org.clojure/data.xml "0.0.8"]) instead of clojure.xml).
(require '[clojure.data.zip.xml :as zf])
(require '[clojure.zip :as z])
(def ex
"<table>
<column name=\"col1\" type=\"varchar\" length=\"8\"/>
<column name=\"col2\" type=\"varchar\" length=\"16\"/>
<column name=\"col3\" type=\"int\" length=\"16\"/>
</table>")
(let [x (z/xml-zip (clojure.data.xml/parse-str ex))]
(->> (zf/xml-> x :column) ;;equivalent to (->> treeseq ... filter)
flatten
(keep :attrs)
(map vals)))
;>>> (("col1" "varchar" "8") ("col2" "varchar" "16") ("col3" "int" "16"))
But the xml-> macro simply applies functions in order, so you can do the following:
(let [x (z/xml-zip (clojure.data.xml/parse-str ex))]
(->> (zf/xml-> x :column #(keep :attrs %))
(map vals)))
;>>> (("col1" "varchar" "8") ("col2" "varchar" "16") ("col3" "int" "16"))
I wrote a macro to handle http response
(defmacro defhandler
[name & args]
(let [[docstring args] (if (string? (first args))
[(first args) (next args)]
[nil args])
args (apply hash-map :execute-if true (vec args))]
`(do
(def ~name
(with-meta (fn [scope# promise#]
(let [e# (:execute-if ~args)
ei# (if (fn? e#)
(e# scope#)
(boolean e#))]
(when ei#
(.then promise# (fn [result#]
(let [{:strs [http-status# value#]} result#
the-func# ((keyword http-status#) ~args)]
(the-func# scope# value#))))))) {:structure ~args}))
(alter-meta! (var ~name) assoc :doc ~docstring))))
So I can do
(defhandler my-handler
:200 (fn [$scope value] (set! (.-content $scope) value)))
But that throws "UnmatchedDelimiter" at line 1, but if I try with a named function:
(defn my-func [$scope value] (set! (.-content $scope) value))
(defhandler my-handler
:200 my-func)
It works ok. I'm just curious, is that a normal behaviour?
That is not the behavior I see when I try your example, nor does it seem very likely. I suggest checking that the forms you pasted here are exactly the ones that produce an error; I suspect your actual anonymous function included one too many )s.
Given that I have a expression of the form
'(map? %)
How do I convert it into something like
'#(map? %)
So that I can ultimately expand it into something like
'(apply #(map? %) value)
I think I should use a macro in some way, but am not sure how.
The # invokes a reader macro and reader macros expansion happen before normal macros expansion happens. So to do what you have mentioned, you need to go through the reader in your macro using read-string as shown below.
(defmacro pred [p v]
(let [s# (str \# (last p))]
`(apply ~(read-string s#) ~v)))
user=> (pred '(map? %) [{}])
true
user=> (pred '(map? %) [[]])
false
In case the data i.e the predicate expression is available at runtime then you need to use a function (which is more flexible then macro).
(defn pred [p v]
(let [s (read-string (str \# p))]
(eval `(apply ~s ~v))))
user=> (map #(pred % [12]) ['(map? %)'(even? %)])
(false true)
#(...) is a reader macro. I don't think that you can generate expression with reader macro. For example '#(map? %) will automatically expand into (fn* [p1__352#] (map? p1__352#)) or something similar.
Here's a somewhat relevant discussion on other reader macro.
Would it be possible to change format of the predicate? If it looked something like:
'([arg1] (map? arg1))
Then it would be trivial to make a function form it:
(cons 'fn '([arg1] (map? arg1)))
(def pred (eval (cons 'fn '([p](map? p)))))
#'predicate.core/pred
(pred {})
true
(pred 10)
false
Now please don't hate me for what I'm going to post next. I wrote an overly simplified version of the function reader macro:
(defn get-args [p]
(filter #(.matches (str %) "%\\d*")
(flatten p)))
(defn gen-args [p]
(into []
(into (sorted-set)
(get-args p))))
(defmacro simulate-reader [p]
(let [arglist (gen-args p)
p (if (= (str (first p)) "quote")
(second p)
p)]
(list 'fn (gen-args p) p)))
Using it is very straight-forward:
((simulate-reader '(map? %)) {}) ; -> true
; or without quote
((simulate-reader (map? %)) {})
; This also works:
((simulate-reader '(+ %1 %2)) 10 5) ; -> 15
The difference with the other solution given by #Ankur is:
I like mine less. I just thought it was a fun thing to do.
Does not require conversion to string and then applying reader macro to it.
I want to create a function (thunk) that will return successive elements in a list. What is the best way to do this? I wrote this code based on an apparently flawed understanding of how local variables in clojure work:
(defn reader-for [commands]
(with-local-vars
[stream commands]
(fn []
(let
[r (var-get stream)]
(if (empty? r)
nil
(let
[cur (first r)
_ (var-set stream (rest r))]
cur))))))
In this code I get:
#<CompilerException java.lang.IllegalStateException: Var null/null is unbound. (Chapel.clj:1)>
which seems to suggest that with-local-vars is dynamically scoped. Is that true? Is there any lexically scoped alternative? Thanks for any help.
If you require mutable state, use one of the clojure reference types:
user=> (defn reader-for [coll]
(let [a (atom coll)]
(fn []
(let [x (first #a)]
(swap! a next)
x))))
#'user/reader-for
user=> (def f (reader-for [1 2 3]))
#'user/f
user=> (f)
1
user=> (f)
2
user=> (f)
3
user=> (f)
nil
Also, let is for lexical scoping, binding is for dynamic scoping.
Edit: the thread-safe version as pointed out by Alan.
(defn reader-for [coll]
(let [r (ref coll)]
#(dosync
(let [x (first #r)]
(alter r next)
x))))
And just for fun, a thread-safe version with atoms (don't do this):
(defn reader-for [coll]
(let [a (atom coll)]
(fn []
(let [ret (atom nil)]
(swap! a (fn [[x & xs]]
(compare-and-set! ret nil x)
xs))
#ret))))
just started using log4j in one of my home-projects and I was just about to break out the mouse and cut-and-paste (trace (str "entering: " function-name)) into every function in a large module. then the voice of reason caught up and said "there has simply got to be a better way"... I can think of making a macro that wraps a whole block of functions and adds the traces to them or something like that? Any advice from the wise Stack-overflowing-clojurians?
No need for a macro:
(defn trace-ns
"ns should be a namespace object or a symbol."
[ns]
(doseq [s (keys (ns-interns ns))
:let [v (ns-resolve ns s)]
:when (and (ifn? #v) (-> v meta :macro not))]
(intern ns
(with-meta s {:traced true :untraced #v})
(let [f #v] (fn [& args]
(clojure.contrib.trace/trace (str "entering: " s))
(apply f args))))))
(defn untrace-ns [ns]
(doseq [s (keys (ns-interns ns))
:let [v (ns-resolve ns s)]
:when (:traced (meta v))]
(alter-meta! (intern ns s (:untraced (meta v)))
#(dissoc % :traced :untraced))))
...or something similar. The most likely extra requirement would be to use filter so as not to call trace on things which aren't ifn?s. Update: edited in a solution to that (also handling macros). Update 2: fixed some major bugs. Update 4: added untrace functionality.
Update 3: Here's an example from my REPL:
user> (ns foo)
nil
foo> (defn foo [x] x)
#'foo/foo
foo> (defmacro bar [x] x)
#'foo/bar
foo> (ns user)
nil
user> (trace-ns 'foo)
nil
user> (foo/foo :foo)
TRACE: "entering: foo"
:foo
user> (foo/bar :foo)
:foo
user> (untrace-ns 'foo)
nil
user> (foo/foo :foo)
:foo
