API for clojure.tools.reader - tools.reader 1.3.7-SNAPSHOT (in development)

by Bronsa

Full namespace name: clojure.tools.reader

Overview

A clojure reader in clojure

Public Variables and Functions



*alias-map*

dynamic var

    
Map from ns alias to ns, if non-nil, it will be used to resolve read-time
ns aliases instead of (ns-aliases *ns*).

Defaults to nil

    
    
    Source
  


*data-readers*

dynamic var

    
Map from reader tag symbols to data reader Vars.
Reader tags without namespace qualifiers are reserved for Clojure.
Default reader tags are defined in clojure.tools.reader/default-data-readers
and may be overridden by binding this Var.

    
    
    Source
  


*default-data-reader-fn*

dynamic var

    
When no data reader is found for a tag and *default-data-reader-fn*
is non-nil, it will be called with two arguments, the tag and the value.
If *default-data-reader-fn* is nil (the default value), an exception
will be thrown for the unknown tag.

    
    
    Source
  


*read-eval*

dynamic var

    
Defaults to true.

***WARNING***
This setting implies that the full power of the reader is in play,
including syntax that can cause code to execute. It should never be
used with untrusted sources. See also: clojure.tools.reader.edn/read.

When set to logical false in the thread-local binding,
the eval reader (#=) and *record/type literal syntax* are disabled in read/load.
Example (will fail): (binding [*read-eval* false] (read-string "#=(* 2 21)"))

When set to :unknown all reads will fail in contexts where *read-eval*
has not been explicitly bound to either true or false. This setting
can be a useful diagnostic tool to ensure that all of your reads
occur in considered contexts.

default-data-readers

var

    
Default map of data reader functions provided by Clojure.
May be overridden by binding *data-readers*

    
    
    Source
  


map-func

function
Usage: (map-func coll)
Decide which map type to use, array-map if less than 16 elements

    
    
    Source
  


read

function
Usage: (read)
       (read reader)
       (read opts reader)
       (read reader eof-error? eof-value)
Reads the first object from an IPushbackReader or a java.io.PushbackReader.
Returns the object read. If EOF, throws if eof-error? is true.
Otherwise returns sentinel. If no stream is provided, *in* will be used.

Opts is a persistent map with valid keys:
 :read-cond - :allow to process reader conditionals, or
              :preserve to keep all branches
 :features - persistent set of feature keywords for reader conditionals
 :eof - on eof, return value unless :eofthrow, then throw.
        if not specified, will throw

***WARNING***
Note that read can execute code (controlled by *read-eval*),
and as such should be used only with trusted sources.

To read data structures only, use clojure.tools.reader.edn/read

Note that the function signature of clojure.tools.reader/read and
clojure.tools.reader.edn/read is not the same for eof-handling

    
    
    Source
  


read+string

function
Usage: (read+string)
       (read+string stream)
       (read+string stream eof-error? eof-value)
       (read+string opts stream)
Like read, and taking the same args. reader must be a SourceLoggingPushbackReader.
Returns a vector containing the object read and the (whitespace-trimmed) string read.

    
    
    Source
  


read-string

function
Usage: (read-string s)
       (read-string opts s)
Reads one object from the string s.
Returns nil when s is nil or empty.

***WARNING***
Note that read-string can execute code (controlled by *read-eval*),
and as such should be used only with trusted sources.

To read data structures only, use clojure.tools.reader.edn/read-string

Note that the function signature of clojure.tools.reader/read-string and
clojure.tools.reader.edn/read-string is not the same for eof-handling

    
    
    Source
  


resolve-symbol

dynamic function
Usage: (resolve-symbol s)
Resolve a symbol s into its fully qualified namespace version

    
    
    Source

    Source
  

clojure.tools.reader.edn

An EDN reader in clojure

Public Variables and Functions



read

function
Usage: (read)
       (read reader)
       (read {:keys [eof], :as opts} reader)
       (read reader eof-error? eof opts)
Reads the first object from an IPushbackReader or a java.io.PushbackReader.
Returns the object read. If EOF, throws if eof-error? is true otherwise returns eof.
If no reader is provided, *in* will be used.

Reads data in the edn format (subset of Clojure data):
http://edn-format.org

clojure.tools.reader.edn/read doesn't depend on dynamic Vars, all configuration
is done by passing an opt map.

opts is a map that can include the following keys:
:eof - value to return on end-of-file. When not supplied, eof throws an exception.
:readers  - a map of tag symbols to data-reader functions to be considered before default-data-readers.
           When not supplied, only the default-data-readers will be used.
:default - A function of two args, that will, if present and no reader is found for a tag,
           be called with the tag and the value.

    
    
    Source
  


read-string

function
Usage: (read-string s)
       (read-string opts s)
Reads one object from the string s.
Returns nil when s is nil or empty.

Reads data in the edn format (subset of Clojure data):
http://edn-format.org

opts is a map as per clojure.tools.reader.edn/read
