clojure.tools.reader - tools.reader 1.3.7-SNAPSHOT API documentation
API for clojure.tools.reader -
Full namespace name: clojure.tools.reader
Overview
A clojure reader in clojure
Public Variables and Functions
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
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.
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.
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.
var
Default map of data reader functions provided by Clojure. May be overridden by binding *data-readers*
function
Usage: (map-func coll)
Decide which map type to use, array-map if less than 16 elements
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
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.
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
dynamic function
Usage: (resolve-symbol s)
Resolve a symbol s into its fully qualified namespace version
An EDN reader in clojure
Public Variables and Functions
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.
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
Public Variables and Functions
function
Usage: (number-literal? reader initch)

function
Usage: (parse-symbol token)

function
Usage: (read-past pred rdr)

Public Variables and Functions
function
Usage: (eof-error rdr & msgs)
Throws an ExceptionInfo with the given message. If rdr is an IndexingReader, additional information about column and line number is provided
function

Public Variables and Functions
function
Usage: (inspect x)
(inspect truncate x)
Return a string description of the value supplied. May be the a string version of the value itself (e.g. "true") or it may be a description (e.g. "an instance of Foo"). If truncate is true then return a very terse version of the inspection.
