Clojurians Log v2

so yeah, you're going to want to a) read this in using a json reader so it's native clojure data

sorry if this painful to read, I don’t know clojure conventions either

no worries. it's not that tough to read (mostly follows convention)

lines 26+ are where I’m mucking around/shouldn’t work

the ideal goal is I end up with a list of items that have (= :field “status”)

and all the other pertinent data within the item

so your filter-status function doesn't actually filter anything

it just returns the first element of (presumably) a vector

ah, and get-status does a bit of the same

I think I was unsure how to filter through the data that (items) returns since it’s a lazy seq

the json I gave you is what the histories function returns

you can filter lazy-seqs as well

(filter (fn [x] (= 0 (mod x 3))) (range 1 10))

When I run something like that I get an arity error?

it probably means that your input to the predicate function (the first argument here) is not what you think

cljs.user=> (filter even? (range 1 10))
(2 4 6 8)
cljs.user=> (filter even? (range 1 10) (range 11 20))
WARNING: Wrong number of args (3) passed to cljs.core/filter at line 1 <cljs repl>
#object[Error Error: Invalid arity: 3]

so you might accidentally be calling it on a seq/collection of objects instead of on a single collection of objects.

ok

let me work this around for a little bit and see if I can get the filter running correctly

ok cool.

thanks for helping so far

another thing to think about before you go is 1) argument destructuring (map (fn [[x y]] (+ x y)) {1 2 3 4 5 6}) and also take a look at reduce/reduce-kv

the braveclojure site has a really good section on the map/filter/reduce operations which are really powerful for data operations once you get comfortable composing them.

what does the double bracket syntax indicate?

[[x]]

so it's argument destructuring.

when you map over a map you actually get the list (x y) as a tuple (I think?) out of the collection as opposed to each value being passed individually

so the first data that gets passed to our anonymous function isn't actually the values 1 and 2 but rather the pair (1 2)

the brackets indicated that one collection argument with two elements is going to be passed in, and that the first element should be assigned to x, and the second to y

clojira.core=> (filter (fn [x] (= "status" (:field x))) items)

=> ()

so at least in the data you sent me: there is no :field data, there is "field" data

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to clojure.lang.IFn

so you'd need to either change the original parsing so that it's stored as an EDN structure (recommended) or use (get "field" x)

EDN?

EDN is extensible data notation (?) dunno, I just think of it as clojure's funny-json

{:this "is" :edn "data"} is like {this: "is", json: "data"}

ok

in clojure you can use keywords as functions on maps

so

(def my-item {:foo "bar" :baz [1 2 3]}
(:baz my-item) ;; => [1 2 3]

so to convert the rest json to edn

makes it a lot more concise than having extra gets everywhere

when I get the response I should create a function that converts it?

I think your http library should have a function or arg that does it

try adding the content type header application/edn as per the output coercion section here: https://github.com/dakrone/clj-http

so in my call-jira function: (client/get "<https://uptake.atlassian.net/rest/api/latest/issue/BAD-101/?expand=changelog>" {:basic-auth [username pass] :as :auto}))

I actually don't know the specifics of adding headers to http-get requests

good repl practice for the throw-shit-at-wall workflow lol.

could also google around a bit and try to find an example

I gotta run off to a bbq, but I hope I was able to help out a little bit.

ok, thanks!

Ok, so here is where I got to

but got stuck again

I’ve created a binding called “items”

items has those values

In order to get the first map and check it for (=“status” :field)

I call (:field (first (first items)))

for some reason calling (:field (first items)) returns nil
