TL;DR

Meltdown is a Clojure interface to Reactor, an asynchronous programming, event passing and stream processing toolkit for the JVM.

1.0.0-beta10 is a development milestone with minor improvements.

Changes between 1.0.0-beta9 and 1.0.0-beta10

Reactor Update

Reactor is updated to 1.1.0.M3.

2-arity of clojurewerkz.meltdown.reactor/on is Removed

Reactor 1.1.0.M3 no longer supports default key (selector), so 2-arity of clojurewerkz.meltdown.reactor/on was removed.

Clojure 1.6

Meltdown now depends on org.clojure/clojure version 1.6.0. It is still compatible with Clojure 1.4 and if your project.clj depends on a different version, it will be used, but 1.6 is the default now.

Changes between 1.0.0-beta8 and 1.0.0-beta9

Consumer and Selector Introspection

clojurewerkz.meltdown.selectors/selectors-on is a new function that returns a list of selectors registered on a reactor:

(require '[clojurewerkz.meltdown.reactor   :as mr])
(require '[clojurewerkz.meltdown.selectors :as ms :refer [$])

(let [r   (mr/create)]
  (mr/on r ($ "a.key) (fn [evt]))
  (ms/selectors-on r))

clojurewerkz.meltdown.consumers/consumer-count is a new function that returns a number of consumers registered on a reactor:

(require '[clojurewerkz.meltdown.reactor   :as mr])
(require '[clojurewerkz.meltdown.selectors :refer [$])
(require '[clojurewerkz.meltdown.consumers :as mc])

(let [r   (mr/create)]
  (mr/on r ($ "a.key) (fn [evt]))
  (mc/consumer-count r))
