rencg

A micro-library for Clojure that provides first class support for accessing the values of named-capturing groups in regular expressions. It has no dependencies, other than on Clojure and any supported JVM, and is only around 100 lines of code.

Why not rufoa/named-re?

Because that library monkey patches core Clojure, which may break other code.

Installation

rencg is available as a Maven artifact from Clojars.

Trying it Out

Clojure CLI

$ # Where #.#.# is replaced with an actual version number (see badge above)
$ clj -Sdeps '{:deps {com.github.pmonks/rencg {:mvn/version "#.#.#"}}}'

Leiningen

$ lein try com.github.pmonks/rencg

deps-try

$ deps-try com.github.pmonks/rencg

Usage

API documentation is available here, or here on cljdoc, and the unit tests are also worth perusing to see worked examples.

Code of Conduct

Developer Workflow

This project uses the git-flow branching strategy, with the caveat that the permanent branches are called main and dev, and any changes to the main branch are considered a release and auto-deployed (JARs to Clojars, API docs to GitHub Pages, etc.).

For this reason, all development must occur either in branch dev, or (preferably) in temporary branches off of dev. All PRs from forked repos must also be submitted against dev; the main branch is only updated from dev via PRs created by the core development team. All other changes submitted to main will be rejected.

Build Tasks

rencg uses tools.build. You can get a list of available tasks by running:

clojure -A:deps -T:build help/doc

Of particular interest are:

• clojure -T:build test - run the unit tests
• clojure -T:build lint - run the linters (clj-kondo and eastwood)
• clojure -T:build ci - run the full CI suite (check for outdated dependencies, run the unit tests, run the linters)
• clojure -T:build install - build the JAR and install it locally (e.g. so you can test it with downstream code)

Please note that the release and deploy tasks are restricted to the core development team (and will not function if you run them yourself).
