Re: Any better client then telnet for connecting to a socket repl server?

[Didier]

Okay, for anyone else coming here and looking, you must absolutely try out 
Unravel https://github.com/Unrepl/unravel

Its a command line tool that you install through npm (implemented in 
ClojureScript cool!), and then you can just do:

unravel  

>From your terminal, and it will connect to any standard Clojure 1.8+ socket 
repl and give you a Repl with full emacs like readline, multi-line support, 
auto-complete, and eldoc style instant documentation. No need to add any 
extra dependencies to your Clojure project or setup anything more then just 
activate the socket repl.

Frankly its amazing, and I think everyone who needs to connect to a socket 
repl should give it a go.

P.S.: Also shout out to Spiral https://github.com/Unrepl/spiral, which is 
an emacs package for connecting to a Clojure 1.8+ socket REPL which gives 
you almost as many features as Cider does with nRepl.

I sometimes use inf-clojure mode 
 in Emacs, which can connect 
directly to a socket REPL. I have a helper Elisp function 
inf-clojure-to-socket 

.

You might also try readline with Netcat (nc) as an alternative to Telnet.

Hi!

There are quite impressive socket repl clients such as 
https://github.com/Unrepl/unravel and https://github.com/Unrepl/spiral (for 
Emacs) both of which use the unrepl protocol https://github.com/unrepl/unrepl.

You can use rlwrap with telnet but it’s a bit of a pain to deal with getting 
back out of the session. I’ve found the following works:

rlwrap -q ^Q telnet 127.0.0.1 

This sets up control-q as a quote character so when you’re ready to exit the 
session you can do ^Q ^] q

Subject: Any better client then telnet for connecting to a socket repl server?

I want to connect to a Clojure socket repl server, but telnet is a really 
terrible repl experience. Anyway I can have a better client to connect to it 
that would have some better support for history, backspace, maybe even some 
auto-complete, highlight, etc. Whatever I can get over telnet?

Thanks

Re: Any better client then telnet for connecting to a socket repl server?

[Timothy Baldridge]

Sadly NREPL isn't a REPL it's a RPC protocol transport for remote
controlling a Clojure instance.

You might look into rebel: although I'm not sure how well that plays with
remote terminals.  https://github.com/bhauman/rebel-readline.

Also look into doing some of this with readline. Perhaps you can pipe
something together via netcat, GPL readline, and socket servers?

Also Emacs provide a lot of this support via inferior lisp. So, like any
lisp you can tell emacs that your inferior lisp command is a telnet command
and it all "just works".

Re: Any better client then telnet for connecting to a socket repl server?

[Chris Shellenbarger]

Can you use NREPL?  https://github.com/clojure/tools.nrepl  

This seems to be what most tools that provide a REPL are built on top of 
(Cursive, CIDER, etc).
