I'm new to Clojure, and I would like to know where is all the documentation for all the libraries such as those found on clojars.org?
For example using lein
I do the following to the project.clj
(defproject Program-name "1.0.0-SNAPSHOT"
:description "FIXME: write description"
:dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.3.0"]
[facts/speech-synthesis "1.0.0"]
[org.clojars.jeffsigmon/maryclient "4.3.0"]
[speech-synthesis "1.0.0"]
[clarity "0.5.6"]])
then uselein deps
to install all the libraries
Core.clj
(ns Program-name.core
(:use [speech-synthesis.say :as say])(use [clarity.component]))
(use 'clarity.form)
so how would I import and get the API information for org.clojars.jeffsigmon/maryclient?
note: I read that that the API documentation is stored in the libraries and you have to import them to access it
The API docs are in the code in the form of docstrings
e.g.
(defn my-func
"This is the doc string"
[a b c]
...)
You can access the doc strings in the REPL:
$ lein repl
user> (doc println)
-------------------------
clojure.core/println
([& more])
Same as print followed by (newline)
user> (apropos "print")
(*print-radix* *print-miser-width* *print-pprint-dispatch* print-table
print-length-loop pprint-indent pprint *print-suppress-namespaces*
*print-right-margin* *print-pretty* with-pprint-dispatch ...)
user> (find-doc "print")
... lots of functions related to print with docs...
Various IDEs also give access to the docs. e.g. in emacs, with swank you can use slime-describe-symbol
accessed via the shortcut C-c C-d d
