hydrogen.duct-template

An external profile for Duct template that introduces Hydrogen code.

Usage

This template profile needs to be used in conjunction with +site and +cljs hints.

lein new duct <project name> +site +cljs +hydrogen/core

It creates an SPA app that's ready for you to run. Front to back. It comes packed with some of the features we use in most of our projects:

• API endpoint for downloading initial config from the server
• Bread and butter FE code that manages routes, themes toggling (just run (themes/toggle-theme)), js externs, etc.

Additional profiles

Authentication and session management

Hydrogen also offers two profiles that provide session management using OpenID Connect ID Tokens. To use them simply add:

• +hydrogen/session.cognito for AWS Cognito User Pools-based session management or
• +hydrogen/session.keycloak to add Keycloak-based session management.

Keep in mind that those two profiles are mutually exclusive.

SQL persistence boundary

Hydrogen also offers a profile that provides a boundary (based on Clojure protocols and records) for data persistence using SQL databases. By default it uses Postgresql (by adding its JDBC driver as a dependency), but can be used with any JDBC compatible database as long as you add its driver as a dependency. To use it simply add:

• +hydrogen/persistence.sql to the list of required profiles

Job Scheduling

Hydrogen also offers a profile that provides job scheduling using Twarc scheduling library, with persistent JobStore backed by a Postgresql database, through scheduling.twarc Duct library. This profile depends on +hydrogen/persistence.sql profile, so make sure you also specify it when adding the job scheduling profile. To use it simply add:

• +hydrogen/persistence.sql +hydrogen/scheduling.twarc to the list of required profiles

What else can it do?

In order to be able to finally share our toolset with the community, we had to cut some corners and narrow down the scope of the template's content. However we'll be delighted to highlight some of our libs, gists and blog posts with our know-how:

• OpenID Authentication

  • buddy-auth.jwt-oidc - Integrant keys and associated code implementing a :duct.middleware.buddy/authentication compatible JWT token validation function for OpenID Connect ID Tokens

• Object storage

  • object-storage.core - Library that provides an object-storage protocol that can be implemented by other libraries.
  • object-storage.ftp - Integrant keys for managing objects in an FTP server
  • object-storage.s3 - Integrant keys for managing AWS S3 objects

• Integration with third party systems

  • cms.webflow A Duct library for managing Webflow CMS
  • payments.stripe - A Duct library for interacting with Stripe
  • dashboard-manager.grafana - A Duct library for managing dashboards and associated users and organizations in Grafana

• Persistence

  • sql-utils - A library designed as a thin convenience wapper over clojure.java.jdbc
  • ragtime-wrapper - Duct module wrapping configuration for Ragtime migrations
  • stork - A Clojure/Datomic migrations library heavily inspired by rkneufeld/conformity

• IoT

  • pubsub - MQTT and AMQP Publish Subscribe library

• Scheduling

  • scheduling.twarc - Integrant keys for using Twarc scheduling library, with persistent JobStore backed by a Postgresql database

• Crypto

  • encryption - Library for encrypting and decrypting arbitrary Clojure values, using caesium symmetric encryption primitives.
  • secret-storage.aws-ssm-ps - Duct library with a boundary for obtaining secrets from AWS SSM PS
  • Example client code using the components mentioned above

• Misc.

  • CLJS image cropping - Small image cropper implementation for ClojureScript
  • tooltips/popovers - Generic tooltip implementation

Running the application

Development Start the REPL.

lein repl

Then load the development environment.

user=> (dev)
:loaded

Run go to prep and initiate the system.

dev=> (go)
:duct.server.http.jetty/starting-server {:port 3000}
:initiated

By default this creates a web server at http://localhost:3000.

When you make changes to your source files, use reset to reload any modified files and reset the server.

dev=> (reset)
:reloading (...)
:resumed
