description Luminus Overview
Luminus is a comprehensive micro-framework designed for building web applications in the Clojure programming language. It combines standard Clojure libraries like Ring, Compojure, and Selmer to provide a structured starting point for developers. The framework emphasizes modularity and aims to make web development in Clojure more approachable. It is intended for developers seeking a full-stack Clojure solution without the rigidity of a monolithic framework.
help Luminus FAQ
How does Luminus represent a data pipeline?
Luminus models work as a graph in which processing steps are nodes and dependencies determine execution order. That structure makes the path from an input dataset to a produced artifact easier to inspect than a loose chain of scripts.
Can Luminus rerun only part of a failed pipeline?
Its graph-oriented model is intended to isolate pipeline stages, so a failed node can be investigated without treating the entire workflow as one opaque program. Exact retry and caching behavior depends on how the project defines and configures its nodes.
How does Luminus support reproducible data processing?
Pipelines are expressed as modular Python code with explicit dependencies rather than undocumented manual steps. Reproducibility still depends on pinning packages, preserving configuration, and versioning the input data alongside the graph.
Is Luminus a replacement for Airflow or Prefect?
Luminus is centered on modular graph execution, while Apache Airflow and Prefect also provide mature scheduling, orchestration, monitoring, and deployment ecosystems. The practical choice depends on whether a project needs a lightweight reproducible pipeline model or a full operational control plane.
