A Clojure library designed to provide support for optional dependencies
Create a stub of the namespace, and fill it with stubs:
(ns myproj.stubs.opt-dep
(:require [stubby.core :refer [defstub]]))
(defstub fun1) ;; by default, using a stub throws an exception
(defstub fun2
[arg1]
;; optionally provide an implementation
(str "Stubbed impl: " arg1))Instead of requiring it in the namespace, use stubby:
(ns myproj.awesome
(:require [stubby.core :refer [require-stub]]))
(require-stub opt-dep.core :as o :else myproj.stubs.opt-dep)My xRadar and xAtis projects depend on a proprietary network protocol, so the library implementing it cannot be published to any public Maven repo, which means that anyone wishing to contribute that doesn't have access to that library would not be able to build the project. Stubby is extracted from an effort in xRadar to get around this problem, enabling travis-ci to work, as well as allowing potential contributors to work on the core project even if they don't have access to the network.
