Re: Delayed compilation of routes (defroutes)

[James Reeves]

You can delay evaluation of routes the same as you can delay any block of code. You currently have:

  (defroutes hs-routes ...)

Which is equivalent to:

  (def hs-routes (routes ...))

So you could wrap it in a function:

  (defn create-hs-routes [] (routes ...))

Or use a delay:

  (def hs-routes (delay (routes ...)))

Hi,

I'm using (defroutes hs-routes ...) to specify routes and while defining these routes I reference some configuration parameters coming from configuration files and command line parameters.

It looks like (defroutes ...) gets compiled before the main method has a chance to run. As a result, all configuration values are nil at that point.

What is the recommended way to delay the compilation of routes till the point when configuration files are properly initialized by the main method (some arguments come from the command line parameters)?

Thank you,

Dima
