Midjournal is a media company focused on long-form journalism for Indonesia's middle class, allowing anyone to write with editorial curation. The document discusses the use of Clojure for project automation, highlighting libraries like Compojure for routing, Enlive for templating, and Midpress for interacting with WordPress's API. It provides examples of coding practices and how these tools enable efficient web application development.
![Clojure is Still Not For
Geniuses (Like Me)
(function argument argument and-argument whatever-argument)
That syntax above covers a solid 90% Clojure code. A few more things for writing
Clojure code are:
; a comment
‘a-symbol
:a-keyword
“a string”
[a vector]
{:a map}](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/lambdajkt-10012015-150110072325-conversion-gate01/85/How-Midjournal-Use-Clojure-7-320.jpg)
![Compojure
It's a small HTTP routing library for Ring that allows web applications to be composed
of small, independent parts.
Sample routing:
(GET “/user/:id” [id]
(str “<h1>Hello ” id “</h1>”))
Compojure supports GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, PATCH, and HEAD.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/lambdajkt-10012015-150110072325-conversion-gate01/85/How-Midjournal-Use-Clojure-10-320.jpg)
![Enlive
The magical templating library.
The HTML from front-end developer:
<h2 class="title">The Dummy Title</h2>
The Clojure code to transform the above HTML code:
(deftemplate tpl-home "home.html”
[home-data]
[:h2.title] (content (:title home-data)))
It will render on the front-end
<h2 class="title">The Title From Database</h2>](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/lambdajkt-10012015-150110072325-conversion-gate01/85/How-Midjournal-Use-Clojure-11-320.jpg)
