A little Clojure jig for discovering, evaluating, and prototyping 3rd party Clojure and Java libraries, for eventual use in your own project(s), all from the REPL.
Important note: this started out as a little "weekend experiment" which quickly ran out of steam. These days you're better off looking at something like babashka + add-deps for a more comprehensive and battle-tested equivalent.
Clone the repo, then run:
$ clj -i init.clj -rThis will load some useful namespaces, display some help, the drop you in a REPL, ready to explore.

multigrep.core

-------------------------
multigrep.core/grep
([r f])
Returns a sequence of maps representing each of the matches of r (one or more regexes) in f (one or more things that can be read by clojure.io/reader).
Each map in the sequence has these keys:
{
:file ; the entry in f that matched
:line ; text of the line that matched
:line-number ; line-number of that line (note: 1 based)
:regex ; the entry in r that matched
:re-seq ; the output from re-seq for this line and this regex
}
-------------------------
multigrep.core/greplace!
([r s f] [r s f in-memory-threshold])
Applies r (a single regex) to f (one or more things that can be read by clojure.io/reader), substituting s (a string, or a function of one parameter (the match(es) from the regex) returning a string).
Returns a sequence of maps representing each of the substitutions. Each map in the sequence has these keys:
{
:file ; the entry in f that matched
:line-number ; line-number of the line that had one or more substitutions (note: 1 based)
}
The optional fourth parameter specifies at what file size processing should switch from in-memory to on-disk. It defaults to 1MB.
