A ClojureScript REPL into iOS JavaScriptCore.
Ambly is a REPL designed for use when developing hybrid ClojureScript iOS apps.
Ambly comprises a ClojureScript REPL implementation, along with Objective-C code interfacing JavaScriptCore.
An iOS app is included, making it easy to give the REPL a spin. Watch a demo.
platform :ios, '8.0'
pod "Ambly", "~> 0.3.0"
You must have Xcode installed as well as support for CocoaPods. You must have Java 7 or later installed along with Leiningen.
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.
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)
[R] Refresh
Choice: 1
Connecting to Ambly Demo on iPod touch ...
To quit, type: :cljs/quit
cljs.user=> (+ 3 4)
7
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.
