View the current state

[James Vanderhyde]

I am attempting to use quil for game development. I am using functional mode. For debugging purposes I would like to see the current state while the program is running. I mean the value of the state parameter that is passed to the update and draw functions. Ideally there would be something I can enter into a REPL that would show me the value of the state the last time draw was called. How can I do this?

I actually figure out something that will work. (I am still fairly new to Clojure.) Let me know if there is an easier way.

(def state-for-repl (atom 0))

(defn draw [state]

  (reset! state-for-repl state)

  ...)

(deref state-for-repl)

Hi James.

Are you using clojure (not clojurescript)? Assuming that you're using clojure, state is stored as sketch meta. So say can access it like this: https://gist.github.com/nbeloglazov/e3083fdb6da6d8cc684adb7b60c879e0
