Building rest service and basic http authentication

I'm very new to clojure and noir as well. I'm looking for a tutorial about writing restful webservice with noir and doing basic authentication with it.
It's hard for me to find one out there, most of them are out of dated.

Thanks in advantage :)

Here's a good article on REST services using Compojure.

Noir is being deprecated, as most of the provided functionality is already present in Compojure or Hiccup.

Take a look at Luminus, I'm actively maintaining it and have a lot of documentation on how to do basic tasks like authentication and route restrictions.

@yogthos thanks for your great framework, it looks neat. But I'm gonna use Noir or rails for current project since I am looking for a mature and stable one. But it's really nice work, I have to say :)

@rhacker just a note that Noir is now deprecated, and all the features which were considered useful were rolled into lib-noir. Luminus is primarily a template for tying existing libraries together.

@rhacker Compojure is actually pretty mature - more than Noir actually, as Noir itself uses Compojure. If you don't like Luminus, you could always give Compojure a try. As far as RESTful services go, Compojure has a lot of infrastructure for the job.

@darth10 just to clarify all Luminus does is create a Compojure application template, when you use Luminus you are using Compojure+Ring+lib-noir basically.

@yogthos 👍 yeah I've just been using Compojure for longer 😄 Luminus is definitely a better replacement as a whole for Noir though
