How to install lamina / aleph to Clojure?

Currently, I use Leiningen 2.1.3 on Java 1.6.0_45

Clojure 1.5.1 connected LightTable IDE 0.4.11

I want to install lamina, but looking at Installation-

[lamina "0.5.0-rc3"]

doesn't make sense to me since I'm fairly new.

Please advice how to install, and some good resource for the library management system.

Thanks!

Solution

  • You just need to add that line to the :dependencies section of your project.clj file so it looks something like this:

    ...
:dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.5.1"]
               [lamina "0.5.0-rc3"]]
...

    Then, use it in wherever you need it:

    (ns myproj.core
  (:require [lamina.core :as lamina]))

    This would make it so you call the channel function like this: (lamina/channel 1 2 3)

    Or in the repl:

    user=> (use 'lamina.core)
nil
user=> (def ch (channel 1 2 3))
#'user/ch
user=> ch
<== [1 2 3 …]
