Pretty print to a string in ClojureScript?

Question

How does one use cljs.pprint to return a string?

(cljs.pprint/pprint '(foo bar))

Would like this to return a string, rather than have a side effect of printing it.

Similar to this question, but for CLJS, not CLJ.

This should work:

(with-out-str (cljs.pprint/pprint '(foo bar)))

This is great, there's also some additional tweaks to control behavior, e.g.`cljs(binding [cljs.pprint/` – elliot42 Aug 20 '15 at 19:49

If you want this in HTML, remember to use `
```
` and `` or CSS `whitespace: pre`.
```
