Thanks Anthony for your reply but I was already aware of that. I was hoping for some solution which would took care of the binding if *:as* was provided and would append the key-value to the *:as* parameter.
I probably need to do that myself....but you never know, someone else might have done it and has an elegant proposal :) Ryan On Friday, May 3, 2013 10:04:41 PM UTC+3, Anthony Rosequist wrote: > > The value of :my-key (or the default, if :my-key doesn't exist) is being > bound to the symbol my-key, so all you need to do is this: > > (defn my-function [{:keys [my-key] :or {my-key 5} :as params}] >> * (str "my-key value is " my-key))* >> > > On Friday, May 3, 2013 1:52:46 PM UTC-5, Ryan wrote: >> >> Hello all, >> >> I have a question regarding the default values when destructuring with >> :keys >> >> Let's assume that we have the following function: >> >> *(defn my-function [{:keys [my-key] :or {my-key 5} :as params}] >>> (str "my-key value is " (:my-key params)))* >> >> >> A few test runs: >> >> >>> *user=> (my-function {:my-key 1}) >>> "my-key value is 1"* >> >> >> Works as expected. >> >> *user=> (my-function {:another-key "hello"}) >>> **"my-key value is "* >> >> >> As you can see here, *my-key* value is nil even thought I have a default >> value of 5. >> From the above observation, it seems that *:as* will not fill in the >> missing keys with the default values if those are provided as in my case. >> >> Does anyone have a solution for this? >> >> Thank you for your time >> >> Ryan >> > -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
