binding?clj/s

(binding? pattern)

Returns true if pattern is a binding variable reference, false otherwise.

A binding variable is either:

  • A symbol starting with a single ? character
  • A sequence of the form (? <binding> ...).
Returns true if `pattern` is a binding variable reference, false otherwise.

A binding variable is either:

- A symbol starting with a single `?` character
- A sequence of the form `(? <binding> ...)`.

compile-patternclj/s

(compile-pattern pattern)

Given a pattern with unquoted binding forms and, potentially, ~ and ~@ entries, returns a pattern appropriately quoted such that it can be evaluated by the Clojure reader.

Changes:

  • (? x) => (list '? 'x)
  • any unquoted symbol is quoted
  • Any form unquoted like ~x is left UNquoted
  • Any form marked ~@(1 2 3) is spliced in directly

These rules proceed recursively down into map, vector and sequential data structures. (Recursion only pushes down into values for map-shaped patterns.)

Given a pattern with unquoted binding forms and, potentially, `~` and `~@`

- Any form unquoted like `~x` is left UNquoted
- Any form marked `~@(1 2 3)` is spliced in directly

restricted?clj/s

(restricted? pattern)

Returns true if pattern is a binding pattern with restriction predicates, false otherwise.

Returns true if `pattern` is a binding pattern with restriction predicates,
false otherwise.

restrictionclj/s

(restriction pattern)

If pattern is a variable binding form in a pattern with restriction predicates, returns a predicate that only returns true if all of the predicates pass for its input, false otherwise.

If pattern has no restrictions or is some other input type, returns a else returns a predicate that will always return true.

If `pattern` is a variable binding form in a pattern with restriction predicates,
returns a predicate that only returns true if all of the predicates pass for
its input, false otherwise.

If `pattern` has no restrictions or is some other input type, returns a else
returns a predicate that will always return `true`.

reverse-segment-nameclj/s

(reverse-segment-name pattern)

Given a REVERSE-segment name, either extracts the symbol from a pattern like (:$$ x), or transforms symbols like $$x into ??x.

Given a REVERSE-segment name, either extracts the symbol from a pattern
like `(:$$ x)`, or transforms symbols like `$$x` into `??x`.

reverse-segment?clj/s

(reverse-segment? pattern)

Returns true if pattern is a reversed-segment variable reference, false otherwise.

A reverse-segment binding variable is either:

  • A symbol starting with $$
  • A sequence of the form (:$$ <binding>).
Returns true if `pattern` is a reversed-segment variable reference, false
otherwise.

A reverse-segment binding variable is either:

- A symbol starting with `$$`
- A sequence of the form `(:$$ <binding>)`.

segment?clj/s

(segment? pattern)

Returns true if pattern is a segment variable reference, false otherwise.

A segment binding variable is either:

  • A symbol starting with ??
  • A sequence of the form (?? <binding>).
Returns true if `pattern` is a segment variable reference, false otherwise.

A segment binding variable is either:

- A symbol starting with `??`
- A sequence of the form `(?? <binding>)`.

splice-reduceclj/s

(splice-reduce splice? f xs)

Helper function for reducing over a sequence that might contain forms that need to be spliced into the resulting sequence. This is a sort of helper for a guarded mapcat.

Takes a sequence xs and mapping function f and returns a sequence of sequences that, if concatenated together, would be identical to

(map f xs)

Where any x such that (splice? x) returns true would have its sequential value (f x) spliced into the result.

For example:

(let [f (fn [x] (if (odd? x)  [x x x] x))]
  (splice-reduce odd? f (range 5)))

;;=> [[0] [1 1 1] [2] [3 3 3] [4]]
Helper function for reducing over a sequence that might contain forms that need
to be spliced into the resulting sequence. This is a sort of helper for a
guarded `mapcat`.

Takes a sequence `xs` and mapping function `f` and returns a sequence of
sequences that, if concatenated together, would be identical to

```clojure
(map f xs)
```

Where any `x` such that `(splice? x)` returns true would have its sequential
value `(f x)` spliced into the result.

For example:

```clojure
(let [f (fn [x] (if (odd? x)  [x x x] x))]
  (splice-reduce odd? f (range 5)))

;;=> [[0] [1 1 1] [2] [3 3 3] [4]]
```

unquote-splice?clj/s

(unquote-splice? pattern)

Returns true if pattern is a sequence form that should be spliced directly into the returned pattern, false otherwise.

Returns true if `pattern` is a sequence form that should be spliced directly
into the returned pattern, false otherwise.

unquote?clj/s

(unquote? pattern)

Returns true if pattern is a form that should be included with no quoting into the returned pattern, false otherwise.

Returns true if `pattern` is a form that should be included with no quoting
into the returned pattern, false otherwise.

unquoted-formclj/s

(unquoted-form pattern)

Given a pattern that responds true to unquote? or unquote-splice?, returns the form from that pattern.

Given a `pattern` that responds `true` to [[unquote?]] or [[unquote-splice?]],
returns the form from that pattern.
