If you want a natural language processing-based version of the a
sentence detector, clojure-opennlp[1] has the ability to detect and
split blobs of text into sentences.

Just so everybody knows also; I did leave in all the original custom
code, so nothing will break when upgrading. The cheshire.custom
namespace has been deprecated, but will remain for quite a while until
I'm sure nobody is using it.

Actually, disregard, I read it wrong. I see why this would be useful

Out of curiosity, doesn't maven's snapshot pining already do this?

Hi Andy,

I don't know the long-term ramifications of using :eval-in :leiningen
for the project to get it to work; instead, I would recommend bumping
the clojure version of your project to clojure 1.4.0 to run the plugin
(then bumping it back down if need be).

In the meantime, I will work on making cadastre 1.3 compatible (I
believe it's just the mapv function holding it back).

Thanks for the feedback!

[ANN] lein-clojuredocs 1.0.2, cadastre 0.1.1, and Eisago

[Lee Hinman]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi all,
I'm pleased to announce three different projects, all related to the
rewrite of ClojureDocs.

- ---
 First, the lein-clojuredocs[1] leiningen plugin, which goes through
your project's source code and produces a gzipped json file containing
all the metadata about your project. This gzipped json file is
intended to be uploaded to the new ClojureDocs in the future, see the
github page[1] for usage, or add this to your ~/.lein/profiles.clj:

{:user {:plugins [[lein-clojuredocs "1.0.2"]}}


- ---
 Second, the cadastre[2] library, which is the actual metadata
extraction library that lein-clojuredocs uses, provided as a separate
library for any other personal use. It also provides a mechanism for
extracting metadata from the Clojure project itself. It can be used
from Clojars by specifying (in your project.clj):

[cadastre "0.1.1"]


- ---
 Finally, I'd also like to formally announce Eisago[3], which is the
beginnings of an import mechanism, storage layer and API intended to
replace ClojureDocs once completely finished. It includes the `lein
eisago` plugin to import files generated by lein-clojuredocs into the
database, a laeggen-based API, a migration tool to import existing
clojuredocs examples, and a library to integrate with ElasticSearch
(which is used as a database and search engine). If you are at all
interested in ClojureDocs, I encourage you to check it out and try
running it yourself, and provide feedback to make the project better.
It is my intention to replace the http://clojuredocs.org site once the
website portion has been completed.

Eisago is not provided as a clojars artifact (since it's not a
library), please clone the git repo to run it and provide feedback.


- ---
 It is my hope with these 3 projects, the rewrite of ClojureDocs can
proceed with more community interaction and better feedback. Please
try all the projects with your libraries and projects and feel free to
open github issues or send me an email with any issues you find.


thanks,
Lee Hinman

It's my goal, I have already have an extractor
(https://github.com/dakrone/lein-clojuredocs) that works for leiningen
projects as well as clojure's source. What is currently lacking is an
import workflow as well as some kind of frontend to transition the
existing examples to.

I also have access to the machine that clojuredocs.org is running on,
and the credentials for the MySQL database, having developed the
current API and helping Zach get it started.

Feel free to ping me on irc (dakrone) if you want to talk more about
it, or jump into the #clojure-doc IRC room.

[ANN]: clj-http 0.5.3 released

[Lee Hinman]

Hi all,
I'm pleased to announce the 0.5.3 release of clj-http. clj-http is an
idiomatic clojure http client wrapping the apache client (like ring in
reverse). You should be able to use it from Clojars[1] using leiningen
with the following:

[clj-http "0.5.3"]

Since I have not announced releases of clj-http since 0.3.2 (I hate
writing release emails), here are the new features that have been added
since 0.3.2:

- add support for :digest-auth (digest-type authentication)
- add request timing middleware to add :request-time key in response
- send cookie-store cookies with a request automatically
- standardize on lower-case headers for HTTP requests (ring-spec)
- add chunked encoding support (:length no longer required along with
input stream body)
- fix clojure 1.3's exception wrapping for some exceptions
- support http.nonProxyHosts property
- change body decompression to be optional, if desired
- add ability to specify a low-level callback for debugging
- add ability to specify the keystore type
- add ability to add pluggable output coercion (multimethod)
- support custom x509 keystore/trust-stores
- fixed an issue where multiple link headers would cause an exception to
be thrown
- add :debug-body that adds plaintext body information to the :debug output
- add support for :oauth-token authentication
- add ability to save the apache HTTP object when :save-request? is true
- support additional options/delete/copy/move/patch HTTP methods
- add support for 'Link' header
- add ability to specify your own retry-handler for IOExceptions
- change wrap-redirects to redirect according to the RFC and add the
:force-redirects option to be more browser-like
- add support for nested param maps
- add support for cookie stores
- add utility methods to retrieve cookies as a map from the cookie store
- set the default maximum number of redirects to 20
- Cheshire will no longer interfere with clj-json
- make Cheshire an optional dependency, only for {:as :json} and json
form-params
- add status functions into the clj-http.client namespace
- add the ability to specify {:as :clojure} to get back a clojure
datastructure, or {:as :auto} with content-type=application/clojure
- support json-encoded form params
- allow :form-params on PUT requests
- add the :throw-entire-message? option to include resp in Exception message
- add ability to redirect to relative paths

And a very large number of bug fixes.

Please give it a try and open any issues on the github repo[2] that you
find. Check out the readme for the full information and usage and the

The installation instructions for the free version of datomic don't
work; they give this command to install locally:

mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.datomic -DartifactId=datomic
- -Dfile=datomic-0.8.3331.jar -DpomFile=pom.xml

Which references the pom.xml file, which does not exist, causing this
error:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:2.3.1:install-file
(default-cli) on project standalone-pom: File not found
/Users/hinmanm/Downloads/datomic-free-0.8.3331/pom.xml:
/Users/hinmanm/Downloads/datomic-free-0.8.3331/pom.xml (No such file
or directory) -> [Help 1]

Looks like a pom.xml file needs to be included in the free version zip
archive.

Would it be possible for you to create the body, and pass it in as a
regular :body option in the request? Or, do you need clj-http to
create this type of request automatically?

What about using something like this?

(defn make-body
  [boundary body]
  (str boundary "\n"
   "Content-Type: application/json\n"
   (json/encode body) "\n"))

(defn create-multi-bodies
  [boundry bodies]
  (clojure.string/join "\n" (map (partial make-body boundary)
bodies)))

Yes, language-detect does a fuzzy matching-letter-frequency-count (the 
non-scientific name for it) sort of algorithm in an attempt to quickly 
determine the language, so for shorter text, it has a higher chance of 
being incorrect (because there is less letter frequency to analyze). Give 
it a try with a longer input string.

Additionally, you could adjust the :smoothing option for the string, or 
pass in a map of probabilities in as a :prior-map to coerce it one way or 
the other manually.

[ANN] cld 0.1.0 - Clojure Language Detection

[Lee Hinman]

Hi all,
I'm pleased to announce the initial 0.1.0 release of cld (Clojure
Language Detection). CLD a tiny library wrapping language-detect[1]
that can be used to determine the language of a particular piece of
text very quickly. You should be able to use it from Clojars[2] with
the following:

[cld "0.1.0"]

Please give it a try and open any issues on the github repo[3] that
you find. Check out the readme for the full information and usage.

Also soliciting better names for the project than 'cld' :)

I have inquired on the OpenNLP mailing list about a way to train a tokenizer 
not to automatically split on spaces, if I hear back a way to do it I will add 
it to clojure-opennlp.

Not sure I understand what you're trying to get at 100%, but you
should be able to train the tokenizer to split words however you'd
like, take a look at the training documentation[1] and feel free to

Check out Cheshire also: http://github.com/dakrone/cheshire

It's based off of clj-json, but more up to date.

Re: Can't "recur" from within a "catch" expression.

[Lee Hinman]

If you need a library for automatic retry (which it sounds like from
your example), I'd check out this sweet library by Joe Gallo:
https://github.com/joegallo/robert-bruce (it uses trampolining
retries).

API for ClojureDocs.org

[Lee Hinman]

Hi All,
As Zach announced in the ClojureDocs mailing list [1], I'm going to be
working on the API for ClojureDocs.org in the coming future. I was
hoping to get some feedback regarding what people wanted to see for an
API for ClojureDocs:

- What kind of features would you like to see in the ClojureDocs API?
- What kind of output would you like to see from the API? (json,
clojure datastructures, xml, plaintext)

Any other feedback is highly appreciated :)

I've started some work with natural language processing and Clojure in
my clojure-opennlp library - http://github.com/dakrone/clojure-opennlp
, it may be useful to you, however it looks like you're interested
more in semantic processing instead of grammatical/syntax processing,
so I'm not sure if it entirely fits your need. Just thought I'd throw
it in.

I didn't see any mention of an editor choice in your message, I would
recommend getting started with the Clojure plugin for your editor of
choice (be it Vim, Emacs, Eclipse or anything else) based on the
instructions here:
http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/clojure/Getting_Started , most of
the editors there have some kind of interactive REPL that sounds like
it would be helpful for you.

> There is something similar for vim (I'm sure a vim user will chime in).

Vim's equivalent is VimClojure -
http://kotka.de/projects/clojure/vimclojure.html

The way I use VimClojure is spawn an in-editor REPL and have
vimclojure eval the file, then I can use the methods defined in the
file from within the editor's REPL, if I change a function VimClojure
has keybindings to eval a form, which updates the definition of the
method and I can try it from the REPL again without reloading
anything.

Re: ClojureDocs.org

[Lee Hinman]

Had another suggestion,

As an example contributor, It would be really nice to see a list of
functions that have no examples yet at a glance, so if I wanted to
work on adding examples I could go through a list and work on
functions that have no examples. I believe the clojure-examples
appspot wiki used to dim out functions that didn't have any examples
(I don't think it does this any more), which was very helpful.

If we did this, we could even have a percentage meter to work toward
100% API example coverage :)

Hi Zack,
First off, I think it looks great, and it definitely seems useful when
trying to find an example of a particular API call.

Few suggestions:
1. The headers for each section (Doc, Source, Example(s)) don't
differentiate themselves from the regular doc text enough, maybe
bold/underline/color them to make them show up more?
2. The links to the source code should link to
http://github.com/clojure/clojure, I believe the richhickey clojure
repo has been transitioned there.
3. I know non-confirmation logins are really nice, but should the site
attract any spammers, you may want to look at adding an email account
confirmation (since spammers could go nuts adding comments to pages).

Looks awesome, hope it gets some love from the Clojure community.

My apologies Stu, it looks like a messed up the structure a bit when I
was attempting to shorten the code enough to mail out, it should have
the correct amount of apologies.

On a side note, I was able to find out what was going wrong. Turns out
I shouldn't have been declaring the protocol in a separate namespace
as the record. (I was declaring "Searcher" in clomoios.core and
"ContextSearcher" in clomoios.contextsearcher). This worked for
actually running the file, but not for REPL use. Once I moved the
protocol declaration to clomoios.contextsearcher everything worked as
expected.

Thanks!

Problems accessing records declared in a namespace in a REPL

[Lee Hinman]

I'm having a difficult time referencing a protocol in the user
namespace, I have the following code:

(ns clomoios.contextsearcher)

(defprotocol Searcher
  (score  [this term text] "Score this text in similarity")
  (rank   [this term text] "Rank sentences in this text"))

(defrecord ContextSearcher [get-sentences tokenize pos-tag])

(extend-protocol Searcher ContextSearcher
  (score
[this term text]
(score-text text score-words get-sentences tokenizer)))
  (rank
[this term text]
(reverse (sort-by second (score-sentences text score-words get-
sentences tokenizer)


When I try to use it from a different namespace, I can't access the
score and rank methods.

Example:
user=> (use 'clomoios.contextsearcher)
nil

user=>  (def foo (make-context-searcher "models/EnglishSD.bin.gz"
"models/EnglishTok.bin.gz" "models/tag.bin.gz"))
#'user/foo

user=> foo
#:clomoios.contextsearcher.ContextSearcher{:get-sentences #, :tokenize #, :pos-tag #}

user=> (score foo "a" "a")
java.lang.Exception: Unable to resolve symbol: score in this context
(NO_SOURCE_FILE:6)

user=> (clomoios.contextsearcher/score foo "a" "a")
java.lang.Exception: No such var: clomoios.contextsearcher/score
(NO_SOURCE_FILE:7)

user=> (clomoios.contextsearcher.ContextSearcher/score foo "a" "a")
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No matching method: score
(NO_SOURCE_FILE:8)


Am I using protocols on the wrong way? How should I refer to the score
and rank methods in the different namespace?
