clj.js - parse/dump Clojure like you'd do with JSON

This library gives you access to few functions to deal with Clojure sexps.

When used in the browser there will be a global variable called Clojure with the usable functions, on node you have to require 'clj'.

Helpers

A set of functions is dedicated to create objects present in Clojure but not present in JavaScript.

• .symbol(string) -> this creates a String object set as symbol.
• .keyword(string) -> this creates a String object set as keyword.
• .vector(...) -> this creates an Array object set as vector. You can either pass a normal array or the elements of the vector.
• .list(...) -> this creates an Array object set as list. You can either pass a normal array or the elements of the list.
• .set(...) -> this creates an Array object set as set. You can either pass a normal array or the elements of the set. The function checks for uniqueness of the elements.
• .rational(...) -> this creates a Rational object. You can either pass a string with the rational or numerator and denominator.

Another set of functions is dedicated to checking wether an object is a specific Clojure object.

• .is_symbol(obj)
• .is_keyword(obj)
• .is_list(obj)
• .is_set(obj)
• .is_vector(obj)
• .is_rational(obj)

Printing - stringify

stringify(object, options) transforms the passed object to Clojure sexps.

The available options are:

• keys_are_keywords, when set to true the keys of objects that are strings will automatically be transformed in keywords.
• alpha, when set to true Date objects will be converted to instants.

Reading - parse

parse(string, options) transforms a string with Clojure sexps to JavaScript objects.

Currently there are no options, it's just reserved for future uses.
