A Clojure(script) library designed to leverage your specs to coerce your information into correct types.
Spec Coerce will remain in alpha while clojure.spec still in alpha.
Learn by example:
(ns spec-coerce.example
(:require
[clojure.spec.alpha :as s]
[spec-coerce.core :as sc]))
; Define a spec as usual
(s/def ::number int?)
; Call the coerce method passing the spec and the value to be coerced
(sc/coerce ::number "42") ; => 42
; Like spec generators, when using `and` it will use the first item as the inference source
(s/def ::odd-number (s/and int? odd?))
(sc/coerce ::odd-number "5") ; => 5
; When inferring the coercion, it tries to resolve the upmost spec in the definition
(s/def ::extended (s/and ::odd-number #(> % 10)))
(sc/coerce ::extended "11") ; => 11
; Nilables are considered
(s/def ::nilable (s/nilable ::number))
(sc/coerce ::nilable "42") ; => 42
(sc/coerce ::nilable "nil") ; => nil
(sc/coerce ::nilable "foo") ; => "foo"
; If you wanna play around or use a specific coercion, you can pass the predicate symbol directly
(sc/coerce `int? "40") ; => 40
; Parsers are written to be safe to call, when unable to coerce they will return the original value
(sc/coerce `int? "40.2") ; => "40.2"
(sc/coerce `inst? "date") ; => "date"
; To leverage map keys and coerce a composed structure, use coerce-structure
(sc/coerce-structure {::number "42"
::not-defined "bla"
:sub {::odd-number "45"}})
; => {::number 42
; ::not-defined "bla"
; :sub {::odd-number 45}}
; coerce-structure supports overrides, so you can set a custom coercer for a specific context, and can be also a point
; to set coercer for unqualified keys
(sc/coerce-structure {::number "42"
::not-defined "bla"
:unqualified "12"
:sub {::odd-number "45"}}
{::sc/overrides {::not-defined `keyword?
:unqualified ::number}})
; => {::number 42
; ::not-defined :bla
; :unqualified 12
; :sub {::odd-number 45}}
; If you want to set a custom coercer for a given spec, use the spec-coerce registry
(defrecord SomeClass [x])
(s/def ::my-custom-attr #(instance? SomeClass %))
(sc/def ::my-custom-attr #(map->SomeClass {:x %}))
; Custom registered keywords always takes precedence over inference
(sc/coerce ::my-custom-attr "Z") ; => #user.SomeClass{:x "Z"}Examples from predicate to coerced value:
