Frinj

Frinj is a practical unit-of-measure calculator DSL for Clojure / ClojureScript.

Key features;

• Tracks units of measure through all calculations allowing you to mix units of measure transparently
• Comes with a huge database of units and conversion factors
• Supports live unit feeds like currency conversion
• Inspired by the Frink project (http://futureboy.us/frinkdocs/)
• Tries to combine Frink's fluent calculation style with idiomatic Clojure
• Supports infix calculation style

Usage

Add the following line into your Leiningen :dependencies [frinj "0.2.5"].

Clojure

user=> (use 'frinj.repl)
user=> (frinj-init!)
user=> (override-operators!)
user=> (fj 2000 :Calories :per :day :to :watts)
;; "1163/12 (approx. 96.91666666666667) [dimensionless]"

ClojureScript

There are a few differences when running Frinj on Node / in a browser. See this wiki page for details.

Examples

• See example calculations for ideas...

• Video of a frinj talk

• Examples using infix calcuation style here

• Live units for currencies, precious metals etc, some examples
