A commercially supported ClojureScript platform by Degree9.



D9 Enterprise is developed and maintained by Degree9


This library is provided as an extension to degree9/meta.
Where [meta] only provides the basic application server/client, D9 Enterprise provides a collection of services which can be mounted to server endpoints, as well as helpful service hooks and client components.

Environment variables

This library supports nodejs process environment variables and dotenv.

There is a convenience namespace degree9.env that inits dotenv and exposes the native nodejs functionality.

See .env.example in the root of the repository for an example that can be copied into place and updated with real secrets.

  • degree9.env/get: Takes a key and optional fallback value, returns the value, fallback or empty string as appropriate. Accepts keyword and string keys in all casings. e.g.
    (degree9.env/get :home) ; "/Users/foo"`
    (degree9.env/get "HOME") ; "/Users/foo"`
  • degree9.env/keys: Returns the list of all available env map keywords.

CLJS REPL

Using shadow cljs + node + REPL is the easiest way to develop without including and rebuilding enterprise as an embedded dependency of some other repository.

We can't reliably use the browser REPL approach because some code must be executed in node. For example, the Shopify API doesn't allow CORS, so browser based POST is not an option.

Shadow CLJS is being used simply because it seemed to provide what we need and I wasn't sure how to setup the equivalent through Boot.

All the REPL config for shadow is in shadow-cljs.edn. The dependencies are being parsed from shadow-cljs.edn into build.boot.

The shadow CLJS docs are pretty good:

https://shadow-cljs.github.io/docs/UsersGuide.html

The default shadow cljs config is for app and targets node-script, but also can support the browser target too (the config covers both options).

Work with nix-shell

Nix can provide all the tooling needed to run tests and the repl.

This is how Circle CI is configured, using the official alpine based NixOS docker box.

If you don't already have nix-shell then install it:

https://nixos.org/nix/download.html

curl https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

Nix will run npm install and set environment variables etc. when entering the shell.

This includes wrapping shadow-cljs so that it appears to be installed globally while in the shell (without installing it globally).

A few nix specific commands are available:

flush

Delete all built artifacts and dependencies that may become stale.

nix-shell --run flush

node-test

Run all the node tests under the :node-test shadow-cljs target.

nix-shell --run node-test

browser-test

Run all browser tests with karma against a headless firefox against the :browser-test shadow-cljs target.

On linux a copy of firefox will be shipped by nix-shell, on Mac you may need to BYO firefox.

nix-shell --run browser-test

Install shadow CLJS

Shadow CLJS is a dev dependency for npm in this repo.

It might be easier to install it globally though:

$ npm install -g shadow-cljs

Shadow CLJS + Node + REPL

First run watch to compile the needed JS file.

$ shadow-cljs watch app

This will start a REPL server, watch files and output to repl-node/main.js.

Next, in a new terminal tab, run the compiled file with node.

$ node repl-node/main.js

This will provide the execution context for the REPL, as a browser normally would. All prn and console logs will show up here.

Finally, in a new terminal tab, start the CLJS REPL connected to the server.

$ shadow-cljs cljs-repl app

This allows for executing cljs code in the node execution environment.

Note that the watch command from shadow cljs WILL reload files dynamically but does NOT automatically reload the state of namespaces from the perspective of the REPL.

To reload an already-loaded namespace, use :reload or :reload-all.

For example:

(require 'degree9.repl :reload)

Would allow edits to degree9.repl/foo to appear in the REPL client without needing to stop and start the REPL server.

Shadow CLJS + Browser + REPL

Edit shadow-cljs.edn so that the :target for :app is :browser.

Run the watch command:

$ shadow-cljs watch app

This will output compiled browser-friendly JS files to repl-public/js/main.js.

A web server will also be available at http://localhost:8020.

Open a browser (e.g. Chrome) to the localhost web server URL. All prn and console logs will show up here.

In a new terminal tab, start the browser REPL.

$ shadow-cljs browser-repl app

Be careful not to refresh the browser as it can mess with the state of the REPL.

To reload namespaces, see the node instructions above.

Shadow CLJS + Testing

Shadow CLJS runs tests for us too, but uses the test build rather than app.

The node test runner in shadow CLJS does NOT need a standalone node instance running as it is configured with :autorun.

$ shadow-cljs compile test

This only runs once though. The watch tool can help, install on Mac OS with brew install watch and wrap shadow CLJS with it.

$ watch shadow-cljs compile test
