[Bug]: NullPointerException trying to transact from CLI about datahike HOT 8 CLOSED

Yes, here https://github.com/replikativ/datahike/blob/main/doc/cli.md#example-usage. I will leave this issue open until it is fixed. @acobster thanks for pointing this out! Lmk your finding for the CLI, would be helpful to get feedback!

@acobster Just saw your work on bread btw., pretty cool! I always wanted to have a blogging software written on top of Datahike and Clojure.

You need to use ./dhi transact conn:testdb.edn '[[:db/add -1 :name "Coby"]]' to connect to the database. The error could definitely be better.

Ah, so it is the usual distinction between transacting on a conn vs. querying a db? In that case I believe the docs are also wrong.

Changing it to conn: worked. Working on a PR to update the docs!

Thanks! After discovering Datomic (back when it was $1200/yr) I actually sought out Datahike specifically for Bread. :) It's gone through a lot of hammock-driven iterations, but hopefully it'll be useful soon...

Nice! It can take time to get things right. Datahike also took a bit more time than anticipated to shape up.

Closed with #643 . Thanks again!
