boost

Yet another collection of Clojure utilty functions. Just one 'core' namespace collecting general purpose functions aggregated here for quick searching and re-use. No specific relation with the Boost library of C++ fame other than having the similar intent to completement the standard lib. Except a few (credited) exceptions, all snippets come from projects I worked on, sometimes inspired by other snippets, articles, discussions.

Install

Put this dependency in your project.clj:

:dependencies 
 [
 [boost "0.1.2"]
 ]

And then:

(ns your-prj-here.core
  (:require 
   [boost.core :as boost]
  ))

Provided utils

• optimal partitioning of coll into parts of the same size
• expanding coll to a bigger size using a filler element
• interleave all, including collections of different sizes
• index of the first occurence of an item in coll
• swapping elements in a sequence
• map-val: updating all values in a map using a custom function
• update-all: updating values for the specified keys in a map using a custom function
• file system utils

Internals documentation

Tests are pretty comprehensive (boost was developed test first). You can run them with:

lein midje

and they give you a detailed overview at what each function is doing. Functions are almost always documented in code.
