Hi,
This is an example from http://github.com/stuartsierra/component
(defn get-user [database username]
(execute-query (:connection database)
"SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ?"
username))
Here 'database' is a component which is passed to 'get-user' as an
argument. The component can be used just like any other hashmap, so
(:connection database) gets the database connection.
