**edn-ruby** is a Ruby library to read and write [edn][edn] (extensible data notation), a subset of Clojure used for transferring data between applications, much like JSON, YAML, or XML.
|
4
|
+
|
5
|
+
## Installation
|
6
|
+
|
7
|
+
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
|
8
|
+
|
9
|
+
gem 'edn'
|
10
|
+
|
11
|
+
And then execute:
|
12
|
+
|
13
|
+
$ bundle
|
14
|
+
|
15
|
+
Or install it yourself as:
|
16
|
+
|
17
|
+
$ gem install edn
|
18
|
+
|
19
|
+
## Usage
|
20
|
+
|
21
|
+
To read a string of **edn**:
|
22
|
+
|
23
|
+
```ruby
|
24
|
+
EDN.read("[1 2 {:foo \"bar\"}]")
|
25
|
+
```
|
26
|
+
|
27
|
+
To convert a data structure to an **edn** string:
|
28
|
+
|
29
|
+
```ruby
|
30
|
+
data.to_edn
|
31
|
+
```
|
32
|
+
|
33
|
+
By default, this will work for strings, symbols, numbers, arrays, hashes, sets, nil, Time, and boolean values.
|
34
|
+
|
35
|
+
### Tagged Values
|
36
|
+
|
37
|
+
The interesting part of **edn** is the _extensible_ part. Data can be be _tagged_ to coerce interpretation of it to a particular data type. An example of a tagged data element:
|
38
|
+
|
39
|
+
```
|
40
|
+
#wolf/pack {:alpha "Greybeard" :betas ["Frostpaw" "Blackwind" "Bloodjaw"]}
|
41
|
+
```
|
42
|
+
|
43
|
+
The tag (`#wolf/pack`) will tell any consumers of this data to use a data type registered to handle `wolf/pack` to represent this data.
|
44
|
+
|
45
|
+
The rules for tags from the [**edn** README][README] should be followed. In short, custom tags should have a prefix (the part before the `/`) designating the user that created them or context they are used in. Non-prefixed tags are reserved for built-in tags.
|
46
|
+
|
47
|
+
There are two tags built in by default: `#uuid`, used for UUIDs, and `#inst`, used for an instant in time. In `edn-ruby`, `#inst` is converted to a Time, and Time values are tagged as `#inst`. There is not a UUID data type built into Ruby, so `#uuid` is converted to a string, but if you require `edn/uuid`, `#uuid` values are converted to an instance of `EDN::UUID`.
|
48
|
+
|
49
|
+
Tags that are not registered are converted as their base data type and a warning will be shown.
|
50
|
+
|
51
|
+
### Registering a New Tag For Reading
|
52
|
+
|
53
|
+
To register a tag for reading, call the method `EDN.register` with a tag and one of the following:
|
54
|
+
|
55
|
+
- A block that accepts data and returns a value.
|
56
|
+
- A lambda that accepts data and returns a value.
|
57
|
+
- A class that has an `initialize` method that accepts data.
|
58
|
+
|
59
|
+
Examples:
|
60
|
+
|
61
|
+
```ruby
|
62
|
+
EDN.register("clinton/uri") do |uri|
|
63
|
+
URI(uri)
|
64
|
+
end
|
65
|
+
|
66
|
+
EDN.register("clinton/date", lambda { |date_array| Date.new(*date_array) }
|
67
|
+
|
68
|
+
class Dog
|
69
|
+
def initialize(name)
|
70
|
+
@name = name
|
71
|
+
end
|
72
|
+
end
|
73
|
+
|
74
|
+
EDN.register("clinton/dog", Dog)
|
75
|
+
```
|
76
|
+
|
77
|
+
### Writing Tags
|
78
|
+
|
79
|
+
Writing tags should be done as part of the class's `.to_edn` method, like so:
|
80
|
+
|
81
|
+
```ruby
|
82
|
+
class Dog
|
83
|
+
def to_edn
|
84
|
+
["#clinton/dog", @name.to_edn].join(" ")
|
85
|
+
end
|
86
|
+
end
|
87
|
+
```
|
88
|
+
|
89
|
+
`EDN` provides a helper method, `EDN.tagout`:
|
90
|
+
|
91
|
+
```ruby
|
92
|
+
class Dog
|
93
|
+
def to_edn
|
94
|
+
EDN.tagout("clinton/dog", @name)
|
95
|
+
end
|
96
|
+
end
|
97
|
+
```
|
98
|
+
|
99
|
+
This method calls `.to_edn` on the second argument and joins the arguments appropriately.
