*ignore?* (clj)

(source)

variable

Dynamic var. If bound to a logically true value in closing thread, will ignore any closeable items. You may change its value is some nested maps with meta `{::ignore false}`. Because `clojure.walk/walk` is used for map traversal, it is not possible to pass down any argument. Also, as we iteratively walk through nested data structures, some of them do not support metadata. As a result, a binding on this dynamic var in the execution thread enables a simple way to remember the parent value as we visit the children.
