Build Status Dependency Status Version License License

Pulsar wraps the Quasar library with a Clojure API that's very similar to Erlang.

Requirements

Java 7 and up and Clojure 1.5 and up are required to run Pulsar.

Getting started

Add the following dependencies to Leiningen's project.clj:

[co.paralleluniverse/quasar-core "0.7.9"]
[co.paralleluniverse/pulsar "0.7.9"]

Then, the following must be added to the project.clj file:

:java-agents [[co.paralleluniverse/quasar-core "0.7.9"]]

or, add the following to the java command line:

-javaagent:path-to-quasar-jar.jar

Alternatively, to build Pulsar from the source, clone the repository and run:

lein midje

You can run the examples like this:

lein -o run -m co.paralleluniverse.pulsar.examples.pingpong

For benchmarks, you should use lein trampoline, like so:

lein trampoline run -m co.paralleluniverse.pulsar.examples.ring-benchmark 1000 1000

Usage

Documentation and examples can be found here.

You can also read the introductory blog post.

When running code that uses Pulsar, the instrumentation agent must be run by adding the following to the java command line or to the :jvm-opts section in project.clj:

-javaagent:path-to-quasar-jar.jar
