Description

Would it be possible to disables the custom data printer with e.g. a compiler constant? For instance, the re-frame-10x library lets you opt in to the library by setting a compiler constant. Maybe this library can do the same. That is to say, expose a constant for disabling the data printers. This should allow Google Closure to remove cljs.pprint from bundles.

I am requesting this because I noticed that data_printers requires cljs.pprint, which is nearly 100 kb in my bundle.

Research direction

Start at the data_printers entry point and trace its dependency on cljs.pprint and the existing compiler-constant configuration pattern. Done means the custom data printer can be disabled through a compiler constant and Google Closure can omit cljs.pprint from the resulting bundle; verify the bundle-size effect.
