API Overview - ()
clojure-contrib is now deprecated
clojure-contrib is no longer being developed or maintained.
Rather than a single, monolithic, contributions library, Clojure now has
a set of separate libraries for each unit of functionality. The libraries
are in the Clojure GitHub organization at
https://github.com/clojure.
API documentation of the libraries can be found at
https://clojure.github.io.
If you're looking for a specific function or namespace from the old
clojure-contrib, see
"Where Did Clojure.Contrib Go".
The user contributions library, clojure.contrib, is a collection
of namespaces each of which implements features that we believe may be useful to
a large part of the clojure community.
This library was created by Rich Hickey but has been populated and is maintained by a
group of volunteers who are excited about the success of the Clojure language and
want to do our part to help it along. The current list of contributors is available
on the
clojure-contrib GitHub source page.
More contributions (and contributors) are welcome. If you wish to contribute, you will need
to sign a contributor agreement (which allows Clojure and clojure.contrib to proceed
without entanglements, see
contributing
for more info).
The best way to start is to share a project you've written with the google group and gauge
the interest in adding it to contrib. (Publishing it in an open source form on google code,
github or some other easy-to-access place in the net will also help.) After general
discussion, Rich Hickey makes the final determination about what gets added to
clojure.contrib.
Some parts of clojure.contrib may migrate into clojure.core if they prove to be so
generally useful that they justify being everywhere. (For example, condp started out
as an extension in contrib, but was moved to core by popular acclamation.)
The exact role of clojure.contrib and the future of the Clojure environment (standard
libraries, dependency models, packaging systems, etc.)
is the subject of pretty much continuous discussion
in the clojure google group and in #clojure on freenode. Feel free to join that
discussion and help shape the ways Clojure is extended.
Like Clojure itself, clojure.contrib is made available under the
Eclipse Public License (EPL).
clojure.contrib is copyright 2008-2009 Rich Hickey and the various contributors.

Flexible raising and handling of conditions:
Functions:
raise: raises a condition
handler-case: dispatches raised conditions to appropriate handlers
print-stack-trace: prints abbreviated or full condition stack traces
Data:
A condition is a map containing values for these keys:
- :type, a condition type specifier, typically a keyword
- :stack-trace, a stack trace to the site of the raise
- :message, a human-readable message (optional)
- :cause, a wrapped exception or condition (optional)
- other keys given as arguments to raise (optional)
Note: requires AOT compilation.

by Stuart Sierra
Detailed API documentation
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
This file defines "duck-typed" I/O utility functions for Clojure.
The 'reader' and 'writer' functions will open and return an
instance of java.io.BufferedReader and java.io.PrintWriter,
respectively, for a variety of argument types -- filenames as
strings, URLs, java.io.File's, etc. 'reader' even works on http
URLs.
Note: this is not really "duck typing" as implemented in languages
like Ruby. A better name would have been "do-what-I-mean-streams"
or "just-give-me-a-stream", but ducks are funnier.

http.agent
by Stuart Sierra
Detailed API documentation
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
Agent-based asynchronous HTTP client.
This is a HTTP client library based on Java's HttpURLConnection
class and Clojure's Agent system. It allows you to make multiple
HTTP requests in parallel.
Start an HTTP request with the 'http-agent' function, which
immediately returns a Clojure Agent. You will never deref this
agent; that is handled by the accessor functions. The agent will
execute the HTTP request on a separate thread.
If you pass a :handler function to http-agent, that function will be
called as soon as the HTTP response body is ready. The handler
function is called with one argument, the HTTP agent itself. The
handler can read the response body by calling the 'stream' function
on the agent.
The value returned by the handler function becomes part of the state
of the agent, and you can retrieve it with the 'result' function.
If you call 'result' before the HTTP request has finished, it will
block until the handler function returns.
If you don't provide a handler function, the default handler will
buffer the entire response body in memory, which you can retrieve
with the 'bytes', 'string', or 'stream' functions. Like 'result',
these functions will block until the HTTP request is completed.
If you want to check if an HTTP request is finished without
blocking, use the 'done?' function.
A single GET request could be as simple as:
(string (http-agent "http://www.stuartsierra.com/"))
A simple POST might look like:
(http-agent "http..." :method "POST" :body "foo=1")
And you could write the response directly to a file like this:
(require '[clojure.contrib.duck-streams :as d])
(http-agent "http..."
:handler (fn [agnt]
(with-open [w (d/writer "/tmp/out")]
(d/copy (stream agnt) w))))

Send reports to stu@thinkrelevance.com.
Usage
(require '[clojure.contrib.jmx :as jmx])
What beans do I have?
(jmx/mbean-names "*:*")
-> #<HashSet [java.lang:type=MemoryPool,name=CMS Old Gen,
java.lang:type=Memory, ...]
What attributes does a bean have?
(jmx/attribute-names "java.lang:type=Memory")
-> (:Verbose :ObjectPendingFinalizationCount
:HeapMemoryUsage :NonHeapMemoryUsage)
What is the value of an attribute?
(jmx/read "java.lang:type=Memory" :ObjectPendingFinalizationCount)
-> 0
Can't I just have *all* the attributes in a Clojure map?
(jmx/mbean "java.lang:type=Memory")
-> {:NonHeapMemoryUsage
{:used 16674024, :max 138412032, :init 24317952, :committed 24317952},
:HeapMemoryUsage
{:used 18619064, :max 85393408, :init 0, :committed 83230720},
:ObjectPendingFinalizationCount 0,
:Verbose false}
Can I find and invoke an operation?
(jmx/operation-names "java.lang:type=Memory")
-> (:gc)
(jmx/invoke "java.lang:type=Memory" :gc)
-> nil
What about some other process? Just run *any* of the above code
inside a with-connection:
(jmx/with-connection {:host "localhost", :port 3000}
(jmx/mbean "java.lang:type=Memory"))
-> {:ObjectPendingFinalizationCount 0,
:HeapMemoryUsage ... etc.}
Can I serve my own beans? Sure, just drop a Clojure ref
into an instance of clojure.contrib.jmx.Bean, and the bean
will expose read-only attributes for every key/value pair
in the ref:
(jmx/register-mbean
(Bean.
(ref {:string-attribute "a-string"}))
"my.namespace:name=Value")

json.read
by Stuart Sierra
Detailed API documentation
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) parser
For more information on JSON, see http://www.json.org/
This library parses data in JSON format. This is a fairly strict
implementation of JSON as described at json.org, not a full-fledged
JavaScript parser. JavaScript functions and object constructors
are not supported. Object field names must be quoted strings; they
may not be bare symbols.
If you want to convert map keys from strings to keywords, use
clojure.contrib.walk/keywordize-keys

Public variables and functions:
*json-keyword-keys* read-json
json.write
by Stuart Sierra
Detailed API documentation
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) generator.
This library will generate JSON from the following types:
* nil
* all primitives (Boolean, Byte, Short, Integer, Long, Float, Double)
* String (actually any CharSequence)
* java.util.Map (including Clojure maps)
* java.util.Collection (including Clojure vectors, lists, and sets)
* Java arrays
You can extend this library to handle new types by adding methods to
print-json.
This library does NOT attempt to preserve round-trip equality between
JSON and Clojure data types. That is, if you write a JSON string with
this library, then read it back with clojure.contrib.json.read, you
won't necessarily get the exact same data structure. For example,
Clojure sets are written as JSON arrays, which will be read back as
Clojure vectors.
If you want indented output, try the clojure-json library at
http://github.com/danlarkin/clojure-json
This implementation attempts to follow the description of JSON at
<http://json.org/>. Maps become JSON objects, all other collections
become JSON arrays. JSON object keys are always converted to strings.
Within strings, all non-ASCII characters are hexadecimal escaped.

==== Lazy sequences ====
primes - based on the "naive" implemention described in [1] plus a
small "wheel" which eliminates multiples of 2, 3, 5, and
7 from consideration by incrementing past them. Also inspired
by code from Christophe Grand in [2].
fibs - all the Fibonacci numbers
powers-of-2 - all the powers of 2

logging
by Alex Taggart, Timothy Pratley
Detailed API documentation
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
Logging macros which delegate to a specific logging implementation. At
macro-expansion-time a specific implementation is selected from, in order,
Apache commons-logging, log4j, and finally java.util.logging.
Logging levels are specified by clojure keywords corresponding to the
values used in log4j and commons-logging:
:trace, :debug, :info, :warn, :error, :fatal
Logging occurs with the log macro, or the level-specific convenience macros,
which write either directly or via an agent. For performance reasons, direct
logging is enabled by default, but setting the *allow-direct-logging* boolean
atom to false will disable it. If logging is invoked within a transaction it
will always use an agent.
The log macros will not evaluate their 'message' unless the specific logging
level is in effect. Alternately, you can use the spy macro when you have code
that needs to be evaluated, and also want to output the code and its result to
the debug log.
Unless otherwise specified, the current namespace (as identified by *ns*) will
be used as the log-ns (similar to how the java class name is usually used).
Note: your log configuration should display the name that was passed to the
logging implementation, and not perform stack-inspection, otherwise you'll see
something like "fn__72$impl_write_BANG__39__auto____81" in your logs.
Use the enabled? macro to write conditional code against the logging level
(beyond simply whether or not to call log, which is handled automatically).
You can redirect all java writes of System.out and System.err to the log
system by calling log-capture!. To rebind *out* and *err* to the log system
invoke with-logs. In both cases a log-ns (e.g., "com.example.captured")
needs to be specified to namespace the output.
Public variables and functions:

This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
Local macros and symbol macros
Local macros are defined by a macrolet form. They are usable only
inside its body. Symbol macros can be defined globally
(defsymbolmacro) or locally (symbol-macrolet). A symbol
macro defines a form that replaces a symbol during macro
expansion. Function arguments and symbols bound in let
forms are not subject to symbol macro expansion.
Local macros are most useful in the definition of the expansion
of another macro, they may be used anywhere. Global symbol
macros can be used only inside a with-symbol-macros form.

math
by Mark Engelberg
Detailed API documentation
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
Math functions that deal intelligently with the various
types in Clojure's numeric tower, as well as math functions
commonly found in Scheme implementations.
expt - (expt x y) is x to the yth power, returns an exact number
if the base is an exact number, and the power is an integer,
otherwise returns a double.
abs - (abs n) is the absolute value of n
gcd - (gcd m n) returns the greatest common divisor of m and n
lcm - (lcm m n) returns the least common multiple of m and n
The behavior of the next three functions on doubles is consistent
with the behavior of the corresponding functions
in Java's Math library, but on exact numbers, returns an integer.
floor - (floor n) returns the greatest integer less than or equal to n.
If n is an exact number, floor returns an integer,
otherwise a double.
ceil - (ceil n) returns the least integer greater than or equal to n.
If n is an exact number, ceil returns an integer,
otherwise a double.
round - (round n) rounds to the nearest integer.
round always returns an integer. round rounds up for values
exactly in between two integers.
sqrt - Implements the sqrt behavior I'm accustomed to from PLT Scheme,
specifically, if the input is an exact number, and is a square
of an exact number, the output will be exact. The downside
is that for the common case (inexact square root), some extra
computation is done to look for an exact square root first.
So if you need blazingly fast square root performance, and you
know you're just going to need a double result, you're better
off calling java's Math/sqrt, or alternatively, you could just
convert your input to a double before calling this sqrt function.
If Clojure ever gets complex numbers, then this function will
need to be updated (so negative inputs yield complex outputs).
exact-integer-sqrt - Implements a math function from the R6RS Scheme
standard. (exact-integer-sqrt k) where k is a non-negative integer,
returns [s r] where k = s^2+r and k < (s+1)^2. In other words, it
returns the floor of the square root and the

This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
Monadic I/O with Java input/output streams
Defines monadic I/O statements to be used in a state monad
with an input or output stream as the state. The macro
monadic-io creates a stream, runs a monadic I/O statement
on it, and closes the stream. This structure permits the
definition of purely functional compound I/O statements
which are applied to streams that can never escape from the
monadic statement sequence.

Detailed API documentation
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
Monte-Carlo method support
Monte-Carlo methods transform an input random number stream
(usually having a continuous uniform distribution in the
interval [0, 1)) into a random number stream whose distribution
satisfies certain conditions (usually the expectation value
is equal to some desired quantity). They are thus
transformations from one probability distribution to another one.
This library represents a Monte-Carlo method by a function that
takes as input the state of a random number stream with
uniform distribution (see
clojure.contrib.probabilities.random-numbers) and returns a
vector containing one sample value of the desired output
distribution and the final state of the input random number
stream. Such functions are state monad values and can be
composed using operations defined in clojure.contrib.monads.

Random number streams
This library provides random number generators with a common
stream interface. They all produce pseudo-random numbers that are
uniformly distributed in the interval [0, 1), i.e. 0 is a
possible value but 1 isn't. For transformations to other
distributions, see clojure.contrib.probabilities.monte-carlo.
At the moment, the only generator provided is a rather simple
linear congruential generator.

The run your code in the profile macro, like this:
(profile (dotimes [i 10000] (my-function 3 4)))
Which prints a report for each named section of code:
Name mean min max count sum
addition 265 0 37000 10000 2655000
multiplication 274 0 53000 10000 2747000
Times are measured in nanoseconds, to the maximum precision available
under the JVM. See the function documentation for more details.

str-utils2
by Stuart Sierra
Detailed API documentation
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
This is a library of string manipulation functions. It
is intented as a replacement for clojure.contrib.str-utils.
You cannot (use 'clojure.contrib.str-utils2) because it defines
functions with the same names as functions in clojure.core.
Instead, do (require '[clojure.contrib.str-utils2 :as s])
or something similar.
Goals:
1. Be functional
2. String argument first, to work with ->
3. Performance linear in string length
Some ideas are borrowed from
http://github.com/francoisdevlin/devlinsf-clojure-utils/

Functions for setting up computational pipelines via data streams.
NOTE: This library is experimental. It may change significantly
with future release.
This library defines:
- an abstract stream type, whose interface consists of the
multimethod stream-next
- a macro for implementing streams
- implementations of stream for
1) Clojure sequences, and vectors
2) nil, representing an empty stream
- tools for writing stream transformers, including the
monad stream-m
- various utility functions for working with streams
Streams are building blocks in the construction of computational
pipelines. A stream is represented by its current state plus
a function that takes a stream state and obtains the next item
in the stream as well as the new stream state. The state is
implemented as a Java class or a Clojure type (as defined by the
function clojure.core/type), and the function is provided as an
implementation of the multimethod stream-next for this class or type.
While setting up pipelines using this mechanism is somewhat more
cumbersome than using Clojure's lazy seq mechanisms, there are a
few advantages:
- The state of a stream can be stored in any Clojure data structure,
and the stream can be re-generated from it any number of times.
Any number of states can be stored this way.
- The elements of the stream are never cached, so keeping a reference
to a stream state does not incur an uncontrollable memory penalty.
Note that the stream mechanism is thread-safe as long as the
concrete stream implementations do not use any mutable state.
Stream transformers take any number of input streams and produce one
output stream. They are typically written using the stream-m
monad. In the definition of a stream transformer, (pick s) returns
the next value of stream argument s, whereas pick-all returns the
next value of all stream arguments in the form of a vector.
Public variables and functions:
defst defstream pick pick-all stream-drop stream-filter stream-flatten stream-m stream-map stream-next stream-seq stream-type

Backwards-compatibility for clojure.contrib.test-is
The clojure.contrib.test-is library moved from Contrib into the
Clojure distribution as clojure.test.
This happened on or around clojure-contrib Git commit
82cf0409d0fcb71be477ebfc4da18ee2128a2ad1 on June 25, 2009.
This file makes the clojure.test interface available under the old
namespace clojure.contrib.test-is.
This includes support for the old syntax of the 'are' macro.
This was suggested by Howard Lewis Ship in ticket #26,
http://www.assembla.com/spaces/clojure-contrib/tickets/26
