Hi Sean, Admittedly, I’ve never used REBL, and I did struggle with the shape and name of the `nav` arguments...
In particular I’m struggling to understand why would anyone use `nav` to navigate to a key that already exists in the map...Can’t we just use `get` or `get-in`? You used the :format as an example, which works with nil, :iso, or a String pattern as the last arg to nav. But again, :format is NOT in the datafied representation. In essence, I’ve tried to use `nav` to navigate to things that can be expensive and don’t necessarily belong in the actual datafied representation. If the second argument to `nav`, is expected to be a key already present in the map, then I really don’t understand what is the point of `nav`. kind regards, Dimitris From: Sean Corfield Sent: 02 February 2020 07:36 To: Clojure Mailing List Subject: Re: ANN: jedi-time 0.1.4 This is very cool but I would strongly recommend you try using this with REBL so you can figure out how to make the `nav` part work in a more natural way. nav is intended to work with a key and value (from the datafied structure), but your nav expects special values so it doesn't work with REBL. You can put (java.time.Instant/now) into REBL and your datafication produces a great data representation, but you can't navigate into it using the keys (and values) of the data structure itself. You can put :format into the nav-> bar and it defaults to a format you can get a string back, but none of the other nav calls will work. You might consider combining the :format key with the actual format, e.g., :format-iso, :format-yy-MM-dd and if the key is something your don't recognize, just let it behave like regular data navigation. I think you're trying to do too much with nav, beyond "navigation". I think you could split some of the "clever" navigation out into a transform function that takes a datafied time and produces a new datafied time, and then let nav do the "conversion" back to Java objects. You've complected the transforms and the conversion right now. If you're on Slack, I'm happy to DM about this in more detail (when you're back from traveling).
