How can i import a function in closure? Suppose i have two files:
test.clj
test2.clj
I want to use the function from test2 in test.
I have tried the following in test, but this is not working:
(namespace user :require test2)
How am a able to import a function in another file?
Basically want to do `from lib import f in python
Your namespace syntax is a bit off. I usually refer to this cheat-sheet when I need a reminder.
I think the following is the syntax you are looking for.
;; In test.clj
(ns test
(:require [test2 :refer [some-symbol-to-import]]))
In file test.clj:
(ns test
(:require [test2 :as t2]))
(defn myfn [x]
(t2/somefn x)
(t2/otherfn x))
In the above example, t2 is an alias for the namespace test2. If instead you prefer to add specified symbols from the namespace use :refer:
(ns test
(:require [test2 :refer [somefn otherfn]]))
(defn myfn [x]
(somefn x)
(otherfn x))
To refer to all public symbols in the namespace, use :refer :all:
(ns test
(:require [test2 :refer :all]))
(defn myfn [x]
(somefn x)
(otherfn x))
