Convert BufferedInputStream to String in Clojure

Question

mock.request is returning the response :body as a BufferedInputStream. I need to print and compare this as a string. How do I convert it?

When I try to pass response as a message to my assertion, I see a raw output, e.g.

(is (= 200 (:status response) (:body response)))
=> #object[java.io.BufferedInputStream 0x211bdf40 java.io.BufferedInputStream@211bdf40]

Answer 1

I tend to use https://github.com/ztellman/byte-streams:

(convert (:body res) String)

Answer 2

Just slurp it:

(slurp (:body response))
