Clojure binding to ruff (https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff) for Python code FORMATTING and LINTING, through the JDK Foreign Function & Memory API.

ruff does not publish a C-ABI library — only a CLI. So this binds a tiny first-party cdylib, ruff-c (native/ruff-c, a thin extern "C" wrapper over ruff's ruff_python_formatter + ruff_linter crates), exactly the way clj-fff binds fff-c. Both run IN-PROCESS via a downcall — no subprocess, no CLI, no config discovery. format takes Python source and returns it reformatted (long calls/collections wrapped multiline, black-compatible style); lint returns ruff's diagnostics as plain Clojure maps.

Run the JVM with --enable-native-access=ALL-UNNAMED so the foreign linker may load the library without a restricted-method warning.

The library is resolved ONCE, lazily, the first time it's needed:

  1. RUFF_NATIVE_PATH env / com.blockether.ruff.native.path system property — an explicit path to the cdylib (used verbatim).
  2. A bundled classpath resource prebuilds/<platform>/<lib>, shipped by com.blockether/ruff-native-<platform> (extracted to the cache dir). This is the native-image path.
  3. A runtime download: the ruff-native-<platform> jar resolved through clojure.tools.deps (honouring Maven repos/mirrors/settings.xml), extracted + cached. Disable with RUFF_DISABLE_DOWNLOAD=1.

<platform> ∈ { linux-x64 linux-arm64 darwin-arm64 darwin-x64 windows-x64 }.

Clojure binding to ruff (https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff) for Python code
FORMATTING and LINTING, through the JDK Foreign Function & Memory API.

ruff does not publish a C-ABI library — only a CLI. So this binds a tiny
first-party cdylib, `ruff-c` (native/ruff-c, a thin `extern "C"` wrapper over
ruff's `ruff_python_formatter` + `ruff_linter` crates), exactly the way
clj-fff binds `fff-c`. Both run IN-PROCESS via a downcall — no subprocess, no
CLI, no config discovery. `format` takes Python source and returns it
reformatted (long calls/collections wrapped multiline, black-compatible
style); `lint` returns ruff's diagnostics as plain Clojure maps.

Run the JVM with `--enable-native-access=ALL-UNNAMED` so the foreign linker
may load the library without a restricted-method warning.

The library is resolved ONCE, lazily, the first time it's needed:
  1. RUFF_NATIVE_PATH env / `com.blockether.ruff.native.path` system property
     — an explicit path to the cdylib (used verbatim).
  2. A bundled classpath resource `prebuilds/<platform>/<lib>`, shipped by
     `com.blockether/ruff-native-<platform>` (extracted to the cache dir).
     This is the native-image path.
  3. A runtime download: the `ruff-native-<platform>` jar resolved through
     `clojure.tools.deps` (honouring Maven repos/mirrors/settings.xml),
     extracted + cached. Disable with RUFF_DISABLE_DOWNLOAD=1.

formatclj

(format code)
(format code {:keys [line-length]})

Format Python code and return the reformatted source as a String.

Options: :line-length int — wrap width (0 / omitted => ruff default 88).

Runs entirely in-process (no subprocess, no pyproject.toml / ruff.toml discovery): output depends only on code and :line-length. Throws ex-info when ruff can't format the input (syntactically invalid Python); callers that want a verbatim fallback should use format-or or catch.

Format Python `code` and return the reformatted source as a String.

Options:
  :line-length  int — wrap width (0 / omitted => ruff default 88).

Runs entirely in-process (no subprocess, no pyproject.toml / ruff.toml
discovery): output depends only on `code` and `:line-length`. Throws ex-info
when ruff can't format the input (syntactically invalid Python); callers that
want a verbatim fallback should use `format-or` or catch.

format-orclj

(format-or code)
(format-or code opts)

Like format, but returns code unchanged if ruff is unavailable or fails (the convenient display-side default — never lose the original source).

lintclj

(lint code)
(lint code {:keys [line-length select ignore preview]})

Lint Python code with ruff and return a vector of diagnostic maps, in ruff's own order:

{:code "F401" :message "os imported but unused" :row 1 :col 1 :end-row 1 :end-col 10 :is-fixable true}

Rows and columns are 1-based; :end-row/:end-col are exclusive; :code is the noqa code (F401) when the rule has one, else the rule id.

Options: :line-length int — width for line-length rules (0/omitted => 88). :select selectors — REPLACE the default rule set ("F,E501", :F401, ["F" "B"]…). Omitted => ruff's default selection (E4, E7, E9, F …). :ignore selectors — disable these on top of the selection. :preview boolean — also run preview rules.

Runs entirely in-process; no # noqa-file discovery and no pyproject.toml / ruff.toml lookup, so the result depends only on code and these options (inline # noqa comments in the source ARE honoured). Throws ex-info when ruff cannot lint the input (unknown selector, or unparsable source); use lint-or for the never-throw variant.

Lint Python `code` with ruff and return a vector of diagnostic maps, in ruff's
own order:

  {:code "F401" :message "`os` imported but unused"
   :row 1 :col 1 :end-row 1 :end-col 10 :is-fixable true}

Rows and columns are 1-based; `:end-row`/`:end-col` are exclusive; `:code` is
the noqa code (`F401`) when the rule has one, else the rule id.

Options:
  :line-length  int          — width for line-length rules (0/omitted => 88).
  :select       selectors    — REPLACE the default rule set ("F,E501",
                               :F401, ["F" "B"]…). Omitted => ruff's
                               default selection (E4, E7, E9, F …).
  :ignore       selectors    — disable these on top of the selection.
  :preview      boolean      — also run preview rules.

Runs entirely in-process; no `# noqa`-file discovery and no `pyproject.toml` /
`ruff.toml` lookup, so the result depends only on `code` and these options
(inline `# noqa` comments in the source ARE honoured). Throws ex-info when
ruff cannot lint the input (unknown selector, or unparsable source); use
`lint-or` for the never-throw variant.
