The command "clj -X ${namespace-function_name}" is used to execute a Clojure function from the command line. Here's a breakdown of the different components:
-
"clj": It is the command to run the Clojure command-line tools. Clojure needs to be installed on your system for this command to work.
-
"-X": It is an option or flag for the "clj" command that specifies that you want to invoke a specific function.
-
"${namespace-function_name}": It is a placeholder representing the namespace and the name of the function you want to execute. You need to replace it with the actual namespace and function name. The namespace is the package or project that contains the function, and the function_name is the name of the function you want to invoke.
For example, if you have a function named "my-function" in the "my-namespace" namespace, the command would be "clj -X my-namespace/my-function".
When you run this command, it will start the Clojure runtime and execute the specified function within the specified namespace. The function can take input parameters if required, and it can also return a result that will be printed to the console.
