A ClojureScript REPL into embedded JavaScriptCore on iOS, OS X, and tvOS.
Ambly is a REPL designed for use when developing hybrid ClojureScript / native apps.
Ambly comprises a ClojureScript REPL implementation, along with Objective-C code interfacing JavaScriptCore.
An iOS and tvOS demo app is included, making it easy to give the REPL a spin.
pod "Ambly", "~> 0.7.0"
You must have Xcode installed as well as support for CocoaPods. You must have Java 7 or later installed along with Leiningen or Boot.
In ambly/ObjectiveC/Ambly Demo
run pod install
.
Open Ambly Demo.xcworkspace
in Xcode and run the app in the simulator or on a device.
In ambly/Clojure
run script/repl
to start the REPL if you're using Leiningen. If you're using Boot, run $ boot ambly
.
Here is a sample REPL startup sequence, illustrating device auto-discovery:
$ lein run
[1] Ambly Demo on iPod touch
[2] Ambly Demo on iPad
[3] Ambly Demo on iPhone Simulator (My-Mac-Pro)
[4] Ambly Demo TV on Apple TV
[R] Refresh
Choice: 1
Connecting to Ambly Demo on iPod touch ...
To quit, type: :cljs/quit
cljs.user=> (+ 3 4)
7
Note: See Connectivity for details, should any networking difficulty arise.
If you would like to manually start the Ambly REPL from a Clojure REPL, issue the following two forms:
(require
'[cljs.repl :as repl]
'[ambly.core :as ambly])
(repl/repl (ambly/repl-env))
For a better REPL experience (keyboard input editing and history support), you can install rlwrap under OS X with Homebrew:
brew install rlwrap
Then script/repl
will automatically detect rlwrap
and use it.
