babashka
I'm considering running a babashka questionnaire in December to learn what people are using babashka for, what they find lacking or redundant. If you would like to feature a question in the questionnaire, please respond in thread.
Whether implicit printing of the last evaluation in the script to stdout should be enabled by default
Thanks. If you don't want this, you can end the script with nil.
Is the intention that it's a kind of safety net, i.e. "you forgot to do something with this value"?
It's more historical consistency with -e "(+ 1 2 3)"
In a #! interpreter for a general-purpose language, I don't think there's much precedent for doing it. But then again, many of them aren't functional/expression-based.
I'll include the question
I'm slightly worried that with org.httpkit.client some people will run into the issues that it consumes the entire request / response into memory. I hadn't seen those issues before I added it and people were mostly positive about httpkit. Maybe people don't do huge requests mostly? cc @alekcz360
yeah, for small use cases it's super handy and IMO if you build something big enough that it needs to be optimized you could probably stand to make a clojure project out of it
your image_viewer example is absurdly handy
+1, I'm using it to get JSON payloads from servers, I wouldn't use it to process files etc - we have "big" Clojure for that
makes sense. also big files you can do with babashka.curl as well which won't hold it in memory at once when streaming
