Hey there,

I'm trying to integrate Om and DataScript.

At first I used David Nolen's gist [1] that implements 'om/IToCursor' for 
DataScript's DB type. That worked out well for some time. But now I try to 
apply Om's experimental support for writing all local state into the app state 
[2]. This requires an associative data structure because of its use of 'assoc' 
and 'get-in'.

So I attempted to write a wrapper around the DataScript DB atom, 
DatabaseCursor. Now, while I succeeded in saving the local state to it by 
implementing IAssociative and ILookup, the app does not re-render on change 
anymore :(

I originally assumed all I needed was to implement the IEquiv or IHash 
protocol, but that does not seem to work (both are never called). So I'm stuck 
right now. Here is my DatabaseCursor:

  (deftype DatabaseCursor [conn]
    ILookup
    (-lookup [this k]
      (-lookup this k nil))
    (-lookup [_ k not-found]
      (let [v (ffirst (d/q '[:find ?v :in $ ?k :where [?e :key ?k] [?e :value 
?v]] @conn k))]
        (or v not-found)))
    IAssociative
    (-contains-key? [_ k]
      (not (empty? (d/q '[:find ?e :in $ ?k :where [?e :key ?k]] @conn k))))
    (-assoc [this k v]
      (let [old-id (ffirst (d/q '[:find ?e :in $ ?k :where [?e :key ?k]] @conn 
k))
            new-id (if old-id {:db/id old-id} {})]
        (d/transact! conn [(merge new-id {:key k, :value v})]))
      this)
    om/IToCursor
    (-to-cursor [this _] this)
    (-to-cursor [this _ _] this))

How to I need to modify my custom cursor to make Om aware of changes to the 
DataScript DB?
