Hi folks, I seem to regularly find myself writing ->> threaded code that follows similar patterns:
(->> things (map wrangle) (map pacify) (filter effable) (map #(aggravate % :bees :sharks)) (reduce mapinate {}) i.e. all stages of the code actually operate on a collection rather than a single value - usually with a call to "map" at each stage. This example is over simplified - often many of the calls to map are inline functions, which makes this even more verbose. I wonder if there would be value in (yet another) variant on '->' that assumes you are threading a collection and calling 'map' by default. I'm not sure of the syntax that would work though. Something like: ([]-> things wrangle pacify [:filter effable] (aggravate :bees :sharks) [:reduce mapinate {}]) I'm not sure about the syntax for non-map functions, I'm not even sure if this is worthwhile.
