I'm trying to find an idiomatic way to read through a text file (e.g.
a Git history log) where an object will be represented by several
lines of text, and when we find a line that starts a new entry we
create the old entry and continue. For example here's my first clumsy
attempt. Can anybody advise on how to do this in a more functional
style?
(def *line-re* #"[^\n]{1,}")
(defstruct commit :id :parent :msg)
(defn parse-log [filename]
(let [text (slurp filename)
lines (re-seq *line-re* text)]
(with-local-vars
[commits {}
commit-id ""
parent ""
msg ""]
(doseq [line lines]
(if (.startsWith line "commit ")
(do
(if (not= @commit-id "")
(do
(var-set commits (conj @commits {...@commit-id (struct
commit @commit-id @parent @msg)}))
(var-set msg "")
(var-set parent nil)))
(var-set commit-id (subs line 7))))
(if (.startsWith line "parent ")
(var-set parent (subs line 7)))
(if (.startsWith line " ")
(var-set msg (str @msg "\n" (subs line 4)))))
(var-set commits (assoc @commits @commit-id (struct commit
@commit-id @parent @msg)))
@commits)))
