I hesitate to offer advice here, because I'm just finding my way in these sort
of matters myself but ...
1. You are using HTML5 APIs: Blob and URL.
2. Your code works with optimisation :none, but not :advanced
3. I conclude that advanced optimisation is munging the symbols.
4. Which means you need to include externs for this API for URL and Blob)
This appears to be the right set of externs:
https://code.google.com/p/closure-compiler/source/browse/externs/fileapi.js
But at that point, I run out of knowing much. Because it is part of Google
Closure, you'd think there was some way of pulling in that file.
Background:
http://lukevanderhart.com/2011/09/30/using-javascript-and-clojurescript.html
Alternative thought ...
Perhaps you could the `goog` wrappers for the "HTML5 API":
http://docs.closure-library.googlecode.com/git/namespace_goog_fs.html
(But I can't see how to get a Blob).
(ns my.module
(:require [goog.fs :as fs]))
;; later
(.createObjectUrl fs blob)
;; or maybe
(fs/createObjectUrl blob)
;; BUT no idea how to create a Blob in the first place.
