| Keybinding | Command | Description |
|---|---|---|
SPC m r a n |
clojure-insert-ns-form |
Add current namespace (from file name) to top of buffer |
SPC m r a N |
clojure-insert-ns-form-at-point |
Add current namespace (from file name) at point |
SPC m r s n |
clojure-sort-ns |
Sort namespaces inside an ns form (e.g. required namespaces) |
clj-refactor contains commands to add require forms to the ns form.
Adding a namespace
, r a n will add a namespace definition to the top of the buffer, useful when creating a new Clojure/Script file. The namespace is taken from the file name, using kebab case for separate names.
, r a N is useful if a comment block is used at the start of source code files or if you want to control the placement of the namespace definition.
Updating a namespace
clojure-update-ns has an outstanding bug, so its not possible to update the name of an existing namespace.
One option is to use , r N to add a new namespace at point and cut/paste the name over the original namespace name.
Sorting namespaces within an ns form
, r s n alphabetically sorts the required namespace names within an ns form.
Organizing by purpose
When there are more than a few required namespaces, it can be valuable to group namespaces by their purpose rather than alphabetically.
