Static websites are recently surging in popularity. Thanks to their very simple nature, they’re not only easier to create but also cheaper to host, more secure, and have better SEO out-of-the-box when compared to dynamic or client-side rendered websites. Thus, it’s only natural that we see more and more services, frameworks, and libraries dedicated to this sole purpose.
So, to not be left behind, I’ve recently created my own Static Site Generator (SSG) called Docking. It’s a very basic, but capable SSG based upon Node.js and Isotope - my own UI library.
In this tutorial, I’d like to walk you through the basics of creating a Docking-based static website of your own. Let’s begin!

Not babashka. Node.js babashka!?
Ad-hoc CLJS scripting on Node.js.
Experimental. Please report issues here.
Nbb's main goal is to make it easy to get started with ad hoc CLJS scripting on Node.js.
Additional goals and features are:
Nbb requires Node.js v12 or newer.
CLJS code is evaluated through SCI, the same interpreter that powers babashka. Because SCI works with advanced compilation, the bundle size, especially when combined with other dependencies, is smaller than what you get with self-hosted CLJS. That makes startup faster. The trade-off is that execution is less performant and that only a subset of CLJS is available (e.g. no deftype, yet).
Install nbb
from NPM:
$ npm install nbb -g
Omit -g
for a local install.
Try out an expression:
$ nbb -e '(+ 1 2 3)'
6
And then install some other NPM libraries to use in the script. E.g.:
$ npm install csv-parse shelljs zx
Create a script which uses the NPM libraries:
(ns script
(:require ["csv-parse/lib/sync$default" :as csv-parse]
["fs" :as fs]
["path" :as path]
["shelljs$default" :as sh]
["term-size$default" :as term-size]
["zx$default" :as zx]
["zx$fs" :as zxfs]
[nbb.core :refer [*file*]]))
(prn (path/resolve "."))
(prn (term-size))
(println (count (str (fs/readFileSync *file*))))
(prn (sh/ls "."))
(prn (csv-parse "foo,bar"))
(prn (zxfs/existsSync *file*))
(zx/$ #js ["ls"])
Call the script:
$ nbb script.cljs
"/private/tmp/test-script"
#js {:columns 216, :rows 47}
510
#js ["node_modules" "package-lock.json" "package.json" "script.cljs"]
#js [#js ["foo" "bar"]]
true
$ ls
node_modules
package-lock.json
package.json
script.cljs
Nbb has first class support for macros: you can define them right inside your .cljs
file, like you are used to from JVM Clojure. Consider the plet
macro to make working with promises more palatable:
(defmacro plet
[bindings & body]
(let [binding-pairs (reverse (partition 2 bindings))
body (cons 'do body)]
(reduce (fn [body [sym expr]]
(let [expr (list '.resolve 'js/Promise expr)]
(list '.then expr (list 'clojure.core/fn (vector sym)
body))))
body
binding-pairs)))
Using this macro we can look async code more like sync code. Consider this puppeteer example:
(-> (.launch puppeteer)
(.then (fn [browser]
(-> (.newPage browser)
(.then (fn [page]
(-> (.goto page "https://clojure.org")
(.then #(.screenshot page #js{:path "screenshot.png"}))
(.catch #(js/console.log %))
(.then #(.close browser)))))))))
Using plet
this becomes:
(plet [browser (.launch puppeteer)
page (.newPage browser)
_ (.goto page "https://clojure.org")
_ (-> (.screenshot page #js{:path "screenshot.png"})
(.catch #(js/console.log %)))]
(.close browser))
See the puppeteer example for the full code.
Since v0.0.36, nbb includes promesa which is a library to deal with promises. The above plet
macro is similar to promesa.core/let
.
$ time nbb -e '(+ 1 2 3)'
6
nbb -e '(+ 1 2 3)' 0.17s user 0.02s system 109% cpu 0.168 total
The baseline startup time for a script is about 170ms seconds on my laptop. When invoked via npx
this adds another 300ms or so, so for faster startup, either use a globally installed nbb
or use $(npm bin)/nbb script.cljs
to bypass npx
.
Nbb does not depend on any NPM dependencies. All NPM libraries loaded by a script are resolved relative to that script. When using the Reagent module, React is resolved in the same way as any other NPM library.
To load .cljs
files from local paths or dependencies, you can use the --classpath
argument. The current dir is added to the classpath automatically. So if there is a file foo/bar.cljs
relative to your current dir, then you can load it via (:require [foo.bar :as fb])
. Note that nbb
uses the same naming conventions for namespaces and directories as other Clojure tools: foo-bar
in the namespace name becomes foo_bar
in the directory name.
To load dependencies from the Clojure ecosystem, you can use the Clojure CLI or babashka to download them and produce a classpath:
$ classpath="$(clojure -A:nbb -Spath -Sdeps '{:aliases {:nbb {:replace-deps {com.github.seancorfield/honeysql {:git/tag "v2.0.0-rc5" :git/sha "01c3a55"}}}}}')"
and then feed it to the --classpath
argument:
$ nbb --classpath "$classpath" -e "(require '[honey.sql :as sql]) (sql/format {:select :foo :from :bar :where [:= :baz 2]})"
["SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE baz = ?" 2]
Currently nbb
only reads from directories, not jar files, so you are encouraged to use git libs. Support for .jar
files will be added later.
The name of the file that is currently being executed is available via nbb.core/*file*
or on the metadata of vars:
(ns foo
(:require [nbb.core :refer [*file*]]))
(prn *file*) ;; "/private/tmp/foo.cljs"
(defn f [])
(prn (:file (meta #'f))) ;; "/private/tmp/foo.cljs"
Nbb includes reagent.core
which will be lazily loaded when required. You can use this together with ink to create a TUI application:
$ npm install ink
ink-demo.cljs
:
(ns ink-demo
(:require ["ink" :refer [render Text]]
[reagent.core :as r]))
(defonce state (r/atom 0))
(doseq [n (range 1 11)]
(js/setTimeout #(swap! state inc) (* n 500)))
(defn hello []
[:> Text {:color "green"} "Hello, world! " @state])
(render (r/as-element [hello]))
Working with callbacks and promises can become tedious. Since nbb v0.0.36 the promesa.core
namespace is included with the let
and do!
macros. An example:
(ns prom
(:require [promesa.core :as p]))
(defn sleep [ms]
(js/Promise.
(fn [resolve _]
(js/setTimeout resolve ms))))
(defn do-stuff
[]
(p/do!
(println "Doing stuff which takes a while")
(sleep 1000)
1))
(p/let [a (do-stuff)
b (inc a)
c (do-stuff)
d (+ b c)]
(prn d))
$ nbb prom.cljs
Doing stuff which takes a while
Doing stuff which takes a while
3
Also see API docs.
Since nbb v0.0.75 applied-science/js-interop is available:
(ns example
(:require [applied-science.js-interop :as j]))
(def o (j/lit {:a 1 :b 2 :c {:d 1}}))
(prn (j/select-keys o [:a :b])) ;; #js {:a 1, :b 2}
(prn (j/get-in o [:c :d])) ;; 1
Most of this library is supported in nbb, except the following:
:syms
.-x
notation. In nbb, you must use keywords.See the example of what is currently supported.
See the examples directory for small examples.

Static code analysis refers to the technique of approximating the runtime behavior of a program. In other words, it is the process of predicting the output of a program without actually executing it.
Lately, however, the term “Static Code Analysis” is more commonly used to refer to one of the applications of this technique rather than the technique itself — program comprehension — understanding the program and detecting issues in it (anything from syntax errors to type mismatches, performance hogs likely bugs, security loopholes, etc.). This is the usage we’d be referring to throughout this post.
“The refinement of techniques for the prompt discovery of error serves as well as any other as a hallmark of what we mean by science.”
We cover a lot of ground in this post. The aim is to build an understanding of static code analysis and to equip you with the basic theory, and the right tools so that you can write analyzers on your own.
We start our journey with laying down the essential parts of the pipeline which a compiler follows to understand what a piece of code does. We learn where to tap points in this pipeline to plug in our analyzers and extract meaningful information. In the latter half, we get our feet wet, and write four such static analyzers, completely from scratch, in Python.
Note that although the ideas here are discussed in light of Python, static code analyzers across all programming languages are carved out along similar lines. We chose Python because of the availability of an easy to use ast
module, and wide adoption of the language itself.
Before a computer can finally “understand” and execute a piece of code, it goes through a series of complicated transformations:
As you can see in the diagram (go ahead, zoom it!), the static analyzers feed on the output of these stages. To be able to better understand the static analysis techniques, let’s look at each of these steps in some more detail:
The first thing that a compiler does when trying to understand a piece of code is to break it down into smaller chunks, also known as tokens. Tokens are akin to what words are in a language.
A token might consist of either a single character, like (
, or literals (like integers, strings, e.g., 7
, Bob
, etc.), or reserved keywords of that language (e.g, def
in Python). Characters which do not contribute towards the semantics of a program, like trailing whitespace, comments, etc. are often discarded by the scanner.
Python provides the tokenize
module in its standard library to let you play around with tokens:
Python
1
import io
2
import tokenize
3
4
code = b"color = input('Enter your favourite color: ')"
5
6
for token in tokenize.tokenize(io.BytesIO(code).readline):
7
print(token)
Python
1
TokenInfo(type=62 (ENCODING), string='utf-8')
2
TokenInfo(type=1 (NAME), string='color')
3
TokenInfo(type=54 (OP), string='=')
4
TokenInfo(type=1 (NAME), string='input')
5
TokenInfo(type=54 (OP), string='(')
6
TokenInfo(type=3 (STRING), string="'Enter your favourite color: '")
7
TokenInfo(type=54 (OP), string=')')
8
TokenInfo(type=4 (NEWLINE), string='')
9
TokenInfo(type=0 (ENDMARKER), string='')
(Note that for the sake of readability, I’ve omitted a few columns from the result above — metadata like starting index, ending index, a copy of the line on which a token occurs, etc.)
