Is there a way to get reveal integrated with rebel-readline ?

Hum, I found this: https://practicalli.github.io/clojure/clojure-tools/data-browsers/reveal.html#using-reveal-with-rebel-and-tap

But I think we can do better, and start the Reveal repl using the rebel line reader

Ok, here's how, add this alias

:repl {:extra-deps {com.bhauman/rebel-readline {:mvn/version "RELEASE"}
                               org.clojure/clojure {:mvn/version "RELEASE"}
                               vlaaad/reveal {:mvn/version "RELEASE"}}
                  :main-opts  ["-e" "(require,'rebel-readline.core),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.line-reader),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.service.local),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.main),(require,'vlaaad.reveal)(rebel-readline.core/with-line-reader,(rebel-readline.clojure.line-reader/create,(rebel-readline.clojure.service.local/create)),(vlaaad.reveal/repl,:prompt,(fn,[]),:read,(rebel-readline.clojure.main/create-repl-read)))"]}

I experimented a bit with it and got it working as a normal repl, I'll try to find some snippets...

I think I got it with this: :main-opts ["-e" "(require,'rebel-readline.core),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.line-reader),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.service.local),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.main),(require,'vlaaad.reveal)(rebel-readline.core/with-line-reader,(rebel-readline.clojure.line-reader/create,(rebel-readline.clojure.service.local/create)),(vlaaad.reveal/repl,:prompt,(fn,[]),:read,(rebel-readline.clojure.main/create-repl-read)))"]

Seems to work at least

It be nice if Ctrl+l would clear the output

I also noticed, when you sort some column, and then switch the sort back to no sort, it doesn't restore the original order

But before I continue, let me say: Reveal is great! Really awesome work! I'm going to make it an integral part of my workflow, and I'm sure it'll be super handy

is that i or L? 😂

anyway, the output clearing is coming!

that’s JavaFX behavior, not much I can do about it except rewriting the table component altogether…

Awesome, I’ll save the snippet and add it to the readme when I have time

l for lima is the same as in a shell terminal (and the same for Cider buffer in Spacemacs)

Yeah, I was thinking about Ctrl+L as a default

This is nice, I'll test and add to the practicalli/clojure-deps-edn project. Thank you, this has been on my todo list for a while.. and now I can create some more videos with this setup too.

That would work, capital letter as its 'changing' the state...

For anyone using my dot-clojure repo, I just pushed an update that adds a :dev alias that mimics what we have at work for starting REBL or Reveal or Rebel Readline or a plain REPL (depending on what's on your classpath) as well as a Socket REPL (saved to .socket-repl-port so you get the same port number next time you start it in that directory); if it starts Reveal, it also adds in the auto-table-view stuff that I use at work. If adds a dev.clj file in ~/.clojure which is loaded via -e using (System/getProperty "user.home")

@didibus That's some interesting stuff... Maybe I'll update my dev.clj file to start things like that if you have both Reveal and Rebel Readline on the classpath... I'll create a ticket since I don't have time right now 🙂

FYI: Apparently its better to do it like this:

:main-opts  ["-e" "(require,'rebel-readline.core),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.line-reader),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.service.local),(require,'rebel-readline.clojure.main),(require,'vlaaad.reveal)(rebel-readline.core/with-line-reader,(rebel-readline.clojure.line-reader/create,(rebel-readline.clojure.service.local/create)),(vlaaad.reveal/repl,:prompt,(fn,[]),:read,(rebel-readline.clojure.main/create-repl-read)))"]

Updated the issue to include that. It may be a few days before I get a chance to try that out. I don't use Rebel Readline myself.

Its really nice. Actually, this combo of Rebel + Reveal, it turns the command line repl almost into a full blown IDE lol

You get multi-line, color highlight, auto-format, inline doc, auto-complete, in-line parameter lists, with Reveal to inspect results, its pretty God like in my opinion 😛

Now I wonder if I can also add this: https://github.com/jpmonettas/flow-storm-debugger (which I haven't tried yet) and get a full blown debugger in my command line repl lol

Ah ok, well I can live without.

What would the non state changing lower l variant do? If it did anything, I'm just curious?

heh, I had thoughts of trying to integrate flow-storm into reveal so you don't have to run it separately

I think it might be pretty cool, but right now I'm busy with various UI improvements, and then there will be remote control...
