  • How to handle concurrency in Clojure with core.async
    1 project | dev.to | 15 Jan 2024
    Hey, how you doing? This article was written right after I had to painstakingly read the clojure.core.async source code in order to finish a task. So, I hope I save you from the same fate as I had 😄.

    It was created by Rich Hickey: https://github.com/clojure/core.async/commit/47b1d24c0291050a1188dbeee2fc9227f694eb3c don't think he's disavowed it lol.
  • Sleeping is not the best option

    Some time ago we developed some helpers using the capturing notifications strategy to test asynchronous ClojureScript code that was using core.async channels. Have a look at, for instance, the expect-async-message assertion helper in which we use core.async/alts! and core.async/timeout to implement this behaviour. The core.async/alts! function selects the first channel that responds. If that channel is the one the test code was observing we assert that the received message is what we expected. If the channel that responds first is the one generated by core.async/timeout we fail the test. We mentioned these async-test-tools in previous post: Testing Om components with cljs-react-test.
  • What is the difference between Manifold and core.async?
    2 projects | /r/Clojure | 12 Aug 2022
    Hi there I'm using Clojure almost a year. I've played with both Manifold and core.async a bit but I'm not %100 sure when to use core.async over Manifold or vice versa.

    If you're not familiar with lisps in general, it might be hard to grok the differences between lisp-macros (as used in Clojure) and "normal" macros you see in other languages.

    But, if you are familiar already, and just wanna see examples of neat macros that makes the API nicer than what a function could provide, here are a few:

    > and with a very poor tooling (lack of IDE's)

    Lisps have fantastic support in Emacs and VSCode and are in general simple enough languages that often the heavyweight of an IDE is not needed. But if you want IDEs there are:

    If you don't want to block the current thread, you can do the looking/waiting on another thread via thread or in a go using alts! .
