在节点js上的不同js文件（在不同页面中）之间共享clojurescript原子

Question

I'm using node-webkit with clojurescript to make my desktop app, and I met a problem when I tried to share an atom between multiple windows(with different js file including.)

When I define a node-global-variable as (set! js/global.foo (atom bar)) , it does create a global variable as an atom, but when I try to call reset!/swap! on the atom through another js file in another window, it crashes, telling me that swap!/reset! method not supported on type atom.

And I tried another way, I defined an atom using (def foo (atom bar)) , and (set! js/global.baz foo) , then I moved all swap!/reset! functions to the js which I defined the foo, and other js files only reads js/global.baz without any attemption to write it...then I found that as bar is reset. the value of global.baz doesn't change.

I searched a lot on these without getting any information about it, it seems that few people are using node-global-variables in cljs.

I need some help....thanks

To persist data between pages you may use one of persistence options . I think Storage-Atom is well suited for your needs.
