Clojurians Log v2

Huh. A recent question on the Clojure Google group is fun in its implications for Clojure and its tools: Github and Maven projects whose names begin with a digit like this one: https://github.com/2captcha/2captcha-java https://search.maven.org/artifact/com.github.2captcha/2captcha-java

Quickest workaround I can think of is to create a Java wrapper lib around it that avoids Clojure needing to see any names starting with a digit

It works just fine with Leiningen…

Hmm. I should have tried out more things before mentioning this. Sorry.

It doesn’t work with deps.edn because the EDN is invalid with the leading 2.

you can use whatever lib name you like in deps.edn

oh, this is maven lib

If it was a :git/url or :local/root you mean @alexmiller?

yeah

well, happy to get an ask.clojure question to think about it

a wrapper wouldn't help as you'd still get it as a transitive dep

maven central doesn't have any groupIds that start with a number, but there are probably ~100 artifactIds that do

(which is a tiny percentage of maven central of course)

my initial thought would be to allow string lib names that canonicalize to a symbol

or support some escape character that's ignored

I vote for the string lib name
