(defmethod logout ((user user) other arguments)
  (print user))

use Lisp's multiple dispatch feature

>>103106676
I don't know if there's a lisp specific idiom for it, but the same problem arises in many languages and it's usually recommended to adopt a naming convention for the struct name, not the function parameters.
>(defstruct struct-user ...)

If you want it to be clear in the function that it must be a certain type I think you could just use "declaim", which is basically like writing a function prototype in C.
>(declaim (ftype (function (struct-user) <return type here>) logout))
>(defun logout (user) ...)
Or you can use a method like the other anon posted.

I had bound C-' to a function that I wrote myself that toggled a short vterm at the bottom of the current emacs frame. However, while I was in org documents, it already had a binding that cycled through org-agenda-files. At first, I was annoyed, but then... I didn't realize there was a way to move through my org-agenda-files so quickly. I learned to like the original behavior of C-' and then I found out it was also bound to C-, . I think both of these bindings are just in org-mode-map so they're only active while you're in an org document.

>>103110781
the basic idea is that emacs should always display a few important keybindings in the mode-line, tab-bar, menu-bar or wherever else there's unused space.

Which ones it displays should change depending on the active modes, previously performed actions, and most importantly based on an estimation whether you've already memorized the keybindings. So if you use evil for the first time, it would display h j k l at first, but once you've pressed each of these keys 10 times or so it should display something else. If you haven't used evil in a while, it'll display the basic keybindings again once you start it.

If you've used an SRS like Anki or SuperMemo before, you can probably see where this is going.
Using a command from the menu toolbar or via M-x counts as a lapse, and the command goes to the top of the queue again. Of course you should be able to manually bury or blacklist commands that you just don't want to see.

better example, since I want the displayed keybindings to make the most sense given the context.
Ultimately it'll probably be controlled by an LLM that tries to predict your next move based on the buffer contents, historical command patterns and so on.

>>103111031
Glad you liked it.

>>103110941
With small modifications, this can work for eat too. I think the only differences were looking for the "*eat*" buffer instead of the "*vterm*" buffer and running (eat) instead of (vterm) at the bottom.

>>103111278
had the time to properly look at it... i'm still a novice in elisp so i might just be misunderstanding, but it seems like vtw has an optional window argument that is never actually used? because you never call vtw with that argument, and you can't pass it to i/toggle-term. i'm just wondering what the purpose of it is.

>>103112114
You're confusing me. vtw is just a variable that holds the vterm window (if it exists) or nil otherwise.

Are you talking about u/window-root? That's the only function where I have an optional window parameter w. That's just a helper function for finding the root window. Notice that it's also a recursive function. To see it work, `M-x ielm` and split the window a few times. Then run (u/window-root) and it'll give you back a window. If you call (u/window-root) when there's only one window in the frame, it returns nil (which is fine).

The function that does the work of toggling a terminal is i/toggle-term. It takes an optional height parameter in case you don't like the default 14.

>>103112318
i'm talking about the lambda function that gets passed as an argument to seq-find.

>>103112470
This part?

ELISP> (setq wl (window-list))
(#<window 4987 on *ielm*> #<window 5010 on *vterm*> #<window 5011 on fu.el>)

ELISP> (seq-find (lambda (w) (equal "*vterm*" (buffer-name  (window-buffer w)))) wl)
#<window 5010 on *vterm*>
ELISP> 

It's just going through the list of windows in the current frame and looking for one named "*vterm*".

Oh, ...you thought vtw was a function call. It's not. It's part of the let* declaration that creates local variables. Put your cursor on the let* and hit `C-h f`.

when i take the 'w' argument out this part fails. why? does the lambda function here HAVE to receive an argument? is it taking it directly from the window list? if not, where does it come from and how does it know it's getting a window as an argument?

i hate this stupid timer

>>103112745
That w is necessary. The seq-find function wants a function that takes one argument, so I gave it a lambda that takes w. That w is later used by the window-buffer function to give me a buffer. Then the buffer-name function uses that buffer to pull out a string.
Try this in the REPL.

ELISP> (setq w (selected-window))
#<window 4987 on *ielm*>
ELISP> (setq b (window-buffer))
#<buffer *ielm*>
ELISP> (setq name (buffer-name b))
"*ielm*"
ELISP> 

- It starts with a window in w.
- Then it gets a buffer b using the window-buffer function.
- Then I get the name of the buffer using the buffer-name function.

I hope this is starting to make sense for you.

>>103112745
seq-find takes wl and gives each item in wl to the lambda until one of the lamdas returns true or we run out of items in wl.

C-h f seq-find

LOOP is so damn confusing

>>103128511
loop kinda breaks the otherwise beautiful lisp syntax if you let it. But it's honestly my favorite way of doing it and I love how rust does it

I've been playing around with doom emacs since I wanted to use lisp instead of lua for my config, but as I was translating my neovim config I noticed that doom emacs is much slower than neovim. Is elisp really that slow? I do use fzf-lua in neovim so I'm used to pretty short load times on large codebases, I don't know how much that affects my perception.

>>103129512
if you want to continue with Neovim, then you can use Fennel for your config, which is a Lisp that transpiles to Lua
I have a friend that does this and I call him autistic for it

>>103129512
you'll have to be more specific than that
but yes, in my experience even my autistically optimized emacs config is slower visually, in latency, and just in general than a hyperbloated nvim config

>>103129707
It's mostly slow in completions in some of my larger projects. On a slightly related note, I was wondering if lem is better since it runs on common lisp or is it just a meme?

>>103129796
>It's mostly slow in completions in some of my larger projects.
usually when people complain about slowness for completions it's because they have extremely conservative defaults for delays
iirc company's default is almost a full second of delay before it pops up. corfu is similar

>I was wondering if lem is better since it runs on common lisp or is it just a meme?
i haven't tried it, but i can definitely imagine it running a bit better. it's still early days though, it's likely missing a bunch of functionality you want

TIL that if you have a single line `loop do` it indents better than having the dangling :do
```lisp
(loop :for mesh :across meshes :do
(update mesh))
```
:collect doesn't

>being this new
I also wish we had markdown support

>>103129846
My completions are pretty fast, but I was trying to configure it so that I can have an external command give me the collection for the completion. I've found no straight forward way of doing this in an asynchronous setting without it crumbling once the projects get too big.

Do I need some sort of package to make dried a good alternative to my file system? I know where my files live, so all that I actually want is good autocomplete for directories.

clojure.core's higher-order functions all expect the collection as their last argument.

This breaks with Clojure's js/java/dart OOP interop where the object is always the first argument to the method call, so you can't use Javascript's native .map, .reduce and .filter calls in the same threading macro as clojure's own (more flexible but slower) equivalents.

I'm trying to think of a good macro (or set of macros) that solves this.

in the meantime I guess one solution is to just use a let form.

Something I just discovered is that the buffer generated by `C-h b` (describe-bindings) can be folded. If you're using evil:
- Hit `C-h b`.
- Focus on the window that documents keybindings.
- Then `z m` to fold everything.
- To open a fold, `z o`.
- To close a fold, `z c`.

I'm not sure why undo-tree-mode and evil-collection-unimpaired-mode are in there twice.

There are no "SQL people" anymore. DBAs got replaced by generalist intern/juniors with rudimentary SQL skills or maybe an ORM. Turns out you don't need a noSQL database and you don't need a relational database and you don't need optimized queries either, because everybody uses SQLite and all you needed was one file to store your data.

>>103142983
You can give emacsclient some elisp to execute with -e. For example, I have this elisp function.

;; https://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/74260/37580
(defun frame-center (&optional frame)
  "Center the current frame."
  (interactive)
  (let* ((dw (display-pixel-width))
         (dh (display-pixel-height))
         (f  (or frame (selected-frame)))
         (fw (frame-pixel-width f))
         (fh (frame-pixel-height f))
         (x  (- (/ dw 2) (/ fw 2)))
         (y  (- (/ dh 2) (/ fh 2))))
    ;;(message (format "dw %d dh %d fw %d fh %d x %d y %d" dw dh fw fh x y))
    (set-frame-position f x y)))

I can use it with emacsclient like this:

emacsclient -e "(frame-center)" -c

This only controls position and places the new emacs frame at the center of the screen. If you wanted to control size and position, you could write your own elisp function to do that and call it via emacsclient in a similar way.

It's like, if to use Hibernate properly, you need an expert in the library and who's fluent in HQL *and* SQL to avoid footguns, why not just have a DBA who actually knows SQL deeply write complex queries for the backend developers. This might be a Hibernate problem, thoughbeit.

The solution is not to go read textbooks, it is to question what you are doing when you are writing your code and how you can make it better. Many times you will encounter issues that others have had in the past, recognizing that and looking up other's solutions is a type of studying.

>>103146563
Officially it's because it makes writing really complicated and fucked up builds really easy, but honestly I don't even know where to start with it.

There's a cli tool for making new projects according to a format like Lein, but truth be told I haven't ever actually written a tools.clj buildscript since it seems like total overkill for what I actually want to do (Simply compile a set of .clj files into a single uberjar) but I can kind of see how it's better if you're doing something fucked up where you're mixing Clojure source code with something else and so on.

That said, I'm kind of a mediocre programmer myself so it's probably just me. In any case, does anyone have some good resources on when, why, and how to write tests in Clojure? I keep seeing stuff about test driven development in Lein/tools and want to know what all the hoopla's about. Another thing's that I'm not really sure when I should be using defrecord/deftype/reify since it seems to me that for all intents and purposes hashmaps tend to occupy the same space in Clojure as 'objects' would in an ooplang. So I usually just have functions that return a bit of processed data as a hashmap, but I'm wondering if I shouldn't just define some records or what-have-you. Adding to that - are protocols simply a way to add new methods to existing types?

While I could simply keep writing mediocre code while ignoring features I don't understand, I think it'd be better to hear about these things from someone more experienced than I, since these common features surely aren't actually all that complex or difficult to use?

Though I admit that I feel more and more like the 'programmer that just wants to slap slop together' rather than the 'programmer that wants to understand software at levels both high and low.' I find books don't really help, because while they do kind of show you the 'how', they don't really tell you 'when' to actually use the mentioned tools they demonstrate.

>>103181358
>when, why, and how to write tests in Clojure?
you should be writing tests for pretty much everything. let's imagine you define a record with some operations. you would want to write a test of object creation and manipulation via the defined operations. you would want to input bad data that generates errors, and assert that correct errors are being reported. you would also want to submit good data, and assert the correct changes are being made.
I like to write one "test" per data structure I make. mind you that a single test can contain many assertions.
if you are writing standalone functions, not related to any specific data structure, then each of these functions should get their own test, with as many assertions as needed.
always test both good and bad data. try to mentally read through your code and hit every single possible path.
writing a bunch of tests is annoying, ngl, but once you are done you will feel so much more confident in the viability of your code. you will certainly run into bugs with existing code, and will become unable to feel at all confident in your algorithms without thoroughly testing them.
also, a HUGE benefit of writing tests out is that maintenance becomes so much easier. this is of course obvious.
note that your tests do not need to be "dry" at all really. write them fast as fuck, with as much copy-paste as you want. very often my tests exceed the LOC of the actual implementation.

>hashmaps tend to occupy the same space in Clojure as 'objects' would in an ooplang.
no, hashmaps are used only when you cannot predict what the key values are. if you are return a user record with a definite name, birthdate, sex, database ID, and so on, then document such fields within a record. if there is additional metadata regarding the user that might or might not exist (such as SSN, Facebook links, etc.) then those can become hashmap entries within a hashmap called "metadata" that belongs to the user record.

>>103181358
>>103181654
protocols are used to annotate what commons functionality exists between differing data structures.
for example, I might have a AES and Serpent cryptosystem. both of these cryptosystems have their own implementations (they encrypt/decrypt data in their own ways, using their own data contained within their own records). but, they do both encrypt/decrypt data. so, AES and Serpent become records containing keys and whatever other shit they need to work. but they both get encrypt(plaintext) and decrypt(ciphertext) operations, which make up the "symmetric cryptosystem protocol."
the very cool thing with protocols is that now one can implement functionality that wraps symmetric cryptosystems together. all the wrapper needs to know is that the algorithms it is passed support the symmetric cryptosystem protocol (encrypt and decrypt). then, you can pass it an AES instance, then a Serpent instance, then another AES instance, and you will end up with a triple-encrypted ciphertext first using AES, then Serpent, then AES again (potentially with a different key length).

protocols are often used in lieu of inheritance. rather than a dog inheriting the locomotion class that defines "walk," the dog can implement "walk" itself in order to satisfy the locomotion protocol. these might seem like the same thing, but they are not, and after many years of coding I can firmly state that one should prefer protocols over inheritance in almost all scenarios.
Golang implements protocols in the form of "interfaces." Rust implements protocols in the form of "traits."

>>103181654
Ah, I think I kind of get it now, and you use Clojure.spec.alpha to run tests on types themselves to see if they conform to your spec while Clojure.test's for testing values returned from functions?

>>103181709
Ah, so they really are just 'interfaces' that can sort of be bolted onto existing types? I think I get it now.
Honestly, just having this confirmed's really nice, since I felt like I was really missing out on substantial parts of the language since I didn't really feel like I had the right idea of what these features were meant to 'be'.

I kind of feel like I'm a bit too green to be using Clojure, since I feel like these're beginner-esque questions. Thanks for answering my questions.

>>103181788
I have never actually used Clojure, but looking at https://github.com/suvash/one-time/blob/main/test/one_time/totp_test.clj
it appears to me that Clojure tests are simply .clj files that end in _test (just like in Golang). I recommend using files like those as a reference.
I personally use Common Lisp with FiveAM for testing (a library), which has the `is` macro, just like is found in Clojure.

    (is (= 319222 (totp/get-token "A4I774XAQM36J7IL" {:date (th/parse-date "Thu Jul 21 01:12:31 UTC 2016")})))

asserts that the result of the totp/get-token call is equal to 319222.

I HIGHLY recommend that you get somewhat comfortable with reading other codebases. looking at how others do things can clue you in very quickly as to what you need to do.

I searched around, and this was touted as a solution.
https://github.com/kaz-yos/eval-in-repl
However, it didn't work as advertised for me. Instead of splitting the frame so that I'd have source in one window and a REPL in the other, the REPL buffer would take over the whole frame. My config might be at fault, but I couldn't get it to work after messing with it for a while.

(use-package eval-in-repl
  :ensure t
  :config

>>103181654
>hashmaps are used only when you cannot predict what the key values are
That is not the preference in Clojure.
The baseline is use a hash map for domain modeling unless you find a good reason to do something else. If you want to provide contracts over your API, use spec or malli.
>>103181358
>why, and how to write tests in Clojure?
Depends on what you're testing and your coding style.
Most Clojure programmers will recommend you write "flat" code with side effects on the edges, which makes most code unit testable (e.g. functions often receive the results of side effects, not perform them).
You should probably be writing generative tests on the edges of your systems or protocols.
You should probably use nubank/matcher-combinators because comparing maps sucks and match? is kino.
If you connect to a database, etc, either use griffinbank/test-contract (requires you know what you're doing) or just bring one up in a test container.
Another important question is how you should be running your tests.
The answer is from within an editor connected to the REPL. CIDER has commands to run tests. Use them.

>>103192875
>>103181709
Your description of protocols is fine but they aren't as ubiquitous as interfaces or abstract classes would be in OOP langs.
Unlike those filthy abominations, you should not make a protocol if you have a single implementation and don't expect consumers to participate in the protocol. Just use a function.
Besides that, protocols are classical type based dispatch on the first argument, like interfaces (>>103181788) with the added bonus of being extensible to existing types, which you can't do on the JVM. If you want OPEN type based dispatch use protocols. In JVM Clojure, Protocols are backed by real interfaces and perform instance checks on their arguments to dispatch to them before looking up the implementation on the extension table.
If you want closed type based dispatch you might as wall use cond with instance checks.
If you want polymorphism a la carte use multi methods which dispatch on value, have hierarchies, neat stuff. You often find multi methods are preferred in Clojure to protocols. This is not necessarily because they're better, that's just the prevailing style

>>103192881
multimethods are more propular because they've been around for longer and are more versatile.
Protocols are much faster. Metosin has written up a few basic guidelines for writing fast clojure code:

>>103192875
>nubank/matcher-combinators

wayland private code generation is complete, which is like the client-server "glue code".

been rewriting the unit tests from wayland in lisp and testing them to ensure similar behavior from my lisp bindings and so far everything on the lower-level end seems to be working as intended

other than wrapping it into a defun or macro, is there a way to delay variable evaluation until the rest of a module is finished loading? i come from a C background and can use externing for something like this, but can't find a way to delay lisp variable evaluation beyond putting the defvar at the very end of the module loading sequence

>>103194267
good morning sir, your language has no delay and force? maybe in combination with eval-when or something like it.

>>103194267
Nice progress so far anon, is eval-when with :load-toplevel or :execute appropriate for delaying evaluation? Scheme has a similar thing using import-specs with its library form (for run/expand/meta time evaluation) so asdf may also have that feature

>>103195793
i couldnt get eval-when to behave correctly for some reason. my current workaround is creation init-variable macros, since some of the wayland objects will depend on user input.

alongside this using find-class and boundp similar to the header guards that wayland uses for creating sever and client-side interfaces

I've wanted something like this for a long time. I wish it didn't take me this long to discover it.

>>103195102
I already indented most of my code the way parinfer wants you to before I even came across parinfer, so I guess it was just a natural thing for me.

I think I would enjoy paredit when it's part of a real structural editing mode like Lispy, but unfortunately Lispy seemed quite buggy when I tried it. Lispy also seems to be an emacs-only thing, whereas parinfer is available for most of the important editors.

>>103174600
He wrote so much on this. What a generous soul.

>>103193235
Not to powerlevel but it's funny getting lectured about Clojure performance.
Anyway, protocols have better performance, but they can't be inlined by the JIT compiler, so if you want good performance you want to use monomorphic interfaces.
Multimethods are not only preferred because they're older, but because the general preference in Clojure is for working with data over types. Love it or hate it, that's just the shape of things.
>>103193481
Less friction and more plastic to the problem.
It's easier to write (is (match? {:a 1} your-map)) than (is (m/validate [:map [:a [:= 1]]] your-map))
You'll also get better error reporting.

guess I'll dick around with it then, at least for functions where I don't already have a malli schema

If you have malli schema on your functions you can write generative tests that exercise them and use `match?` in the assertion clause, or just good ol' =

You could try this

It looks like meow has integration for sly which makes it use motion mode in the debugger, but not for slime. So you could also potentially switch to sly.

I dusted off VS Code for a certain thing recently and realized how much I missed a proper minimap, seeing the shape of code, being able to instantly jump to a specific section without keeping line numbers/identifiers/anything at all in my head, being able to do smooth but fast erratic scrolling - which is closely matches how I skim through physical printed/written text.
In general it's close to how I naturally work with physical textual and graphical information.
minimap-mode is clunky enough to break the flow and Helix doesn't have a minimap. I just tricked myself into thinking it's unnecessary and I don't want it.
