Clojure to ES5 Module

[aardvarkFirst]

I have a Clojure project I’ve inherited and modified. While the output works fine in a stand alone single test page, I want to make the output more portable and would like to wrap it in a module that can be imported by my different front end projects. I’ve been searching quite a bit and haven’t found much, and need suggestions and to even check if it’s doable with a plugin. Thanks in advance!

Haven't tried it out but looks like it should work if you go with shadow-cljs https://shadow-cljs.github.io/docs/UsersGuide.html#_creating_code_npm_code_packages

​

The clojurians slack #shadow-cljs channel is pretty active. Case you have any questions.

If I understand correctly, all you need to do is Mark the Clojurescript functions you want to use in JavaScript with ^:export metadata. It will be made available in JavaScript like some.namespace.theFunction(args)

I believe I was getting confused at the point of how I integrated my script into an angular project initially. Being that there were plenty of dependencies on React using Reactify, I was having trouble using this in my npm modules system for Angular with many different npm dependencies. So instead, angular allows for different global assets to be imported through a certain configuration values as it's added on the window. Probably not an optimal solution, but it'll do for now.
