The vendored spork/http is gone — jpm owns janet packages. In its place:
- The janet.* bridge autoloads jpm-installed modules on first reference:
janet.spork.http/server requires spork/http from the module path and
caches its bindings (failures are negatively cached). Works for any
module, in every mode, including inside net/server connection fibers.
- deps.edn grows a :jpm/module coordinate: jolt-deps verifies the module is
importable at resolve time, optionally running `jpm install` on the
:jpm/install package once when it isn't, and otherwise fails with the
install hint. Contributes no source roots. ring-app declares spork/http
this way.
Docs: README's interop section, docs/tools-deps.md (:jpm/module reference),
and the ring-app README (including the jpm-version caveat for spork HEAD's
.janet native sources, which older jpm rejects).
Class names evaluate to their canonical class-name STRINGS (the same values
class returns), so a (defmulti m (comp class :body)) matches (defmethod m
String ...) — ring.util.request dispatches exactly this way. Constructor
sugar and the new special form resolve the actual ctor from the registry
when given a token; dispatch-only names (InputStream, File, ISeq, ...) are
interned for defmethod position. nil is a legal multimethod dispatch value
now (sentinel-keyed: janet tables drop nil keys) — ring keys body-string's
no-body case on it.
spork/http is VENDORED (vendor/spork/http.janet, MIT) and baked into the
image, reaching the jolt layer as janet.spork.http/* through the janet.*
bridge — whose lookup is now a chain (runtime fiber env, module env, the
vendored registry), which also fixes janet/* resolution inside net/server
connection fibers (they carry a foreign env). jolt.http is rewritten over
the spork client (its old net/request never existed; also fixes its own
get shadowing clojure.core/get).
Also: slurp accepts opts and DRAINS reader shims (ring middleware slurps
request bodies), clojure.string/replace takes fn replacements with Clojure's
match-or-groups argument, .indexOf int needles are char codes, .getBytes on
the String surface, and ^bytes-style return hints on param vectors parse
(the fn macro unwraps the with-meta form).
Suite steady at 4715/5348; conformance x3 green; deps-conformance medley +
cuerdas green (the stuartsierra/dependency failure predates this change).
adds self-hosted compiler is functionally:
- The default compile path is the portable pipeline using jolt.analyzer (Clojure) → host-neutral IR → backend.janet.
- The analyzer is itself Clojure, compiled by jolt for true self-hosting.
- bootstrap-fixpoint passes (stage1 == stage2 == stage3): rebuilding the compiler on its own output.
- clojure.core is now self-hosted in the overlay.
- Stateful forms (defmacro/ns/deftype/defmulti/require/in-ns) are interpreted by design.
