Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to make the following elegantly in clojure.
I have a hash-map which has some key-value pairs and I would like to append
to that hash-map a couple more key-value pairs IF some specific condition
is met. For example, the create-map creates the main hash-map but i would
like *to merge* the map with the value returned from create-key-value, if
the condition inside that function is met.
(defn create-key-value [value]
(when (some-condition-true) {:extra-key "extra-value"))
> (defn create-map []
{:foo "a"
:bar "b"})
The final, merged, map should look like this *if* create-key-value returned
the :extra-key
{:foo "a", :bar "b", :extra-key "extra-value"}
...or if it didn't to return this:
> {:foo "a", :bar "b"}
I did find a proposed solution on a stackoverflow
post<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8992997/initializing-elements-of-a-map-conditionally-in-clojure>,
but I am not sure if that's the most elegant way.
Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Ryan
