swank-client-js
Implementation of a Swank client in Javascript. Intended for communicating with running Common Lisp processes running a swank server, just like SLIME in Emacs.
This library provides an editor/view-independent API for making the following queries to a Swank server:
- Evaluating arbitrary Lisp expressions
- Retrieving auto documentation
- Controlling a debugger
Future additions to the API:
- Autocompletion requests
- Object introspection requests
See test.js for an example use case.
This package forms a core part of the atom-slime package for the Atom text editor.
