- Transforming EDN into Chicken:
(with-input-from-port <port> read-edn) - Transforming Chicken into EDN:
(with-output-to-port <port> (write-edn <datastructure>)) - Using reader tags: the library contains a public a-list
tag-handlers. To register a handler, add an a-list entry where the key is the tag without#and as a keyword (e.g.#keywordifybecomeskeywordify:), and the value a one-argument procedure.
- 0.5: Reader tag support.
- 0.4: Complete rewrite. Only relies on R7RS, and SRFI 1, 4, 69 and 88. Uses ports. Reads and writes EDN.
- 0.3: EDN tags, including special forms, work. #inst and #uuid both get read as strings. Add nil. Add number prefixes. Add no-space-required to #_ tag.
- 0.2.1: Can read EDN-files and -strings. EDN tags are not working yet.
- 0.2: Can read EDN-strings with one top-level data structure.
