When you are building something real with Clojure and Emacs/Slime/Swank - things can get a bit hairy with dependency management.
I have scoured the inter-tubes in the past couple days to see what I could find. I found Lancet, for builds: http://github.com/stuarthalloway/lancet/tree/master I haven't tried it yet. I found some people doing things with Maven: Creating a clojurue app with maven: http://pupeno.com/blog/how-to-create-a-clojure-application?set_language=eo http://pupeno.com/blog/iterative-coding-with-a-clojure-application clojure-pom: http://github.com/dysinger/clojure-pom/tree/master I heard some chatter yesterday on #clojure about using Ivy with Clojure. So there is a flurry of activity. Please let me know if there are other things that I am missing. What I am doing now from my emacs / slime-repl is hacking things in manually to my swank-clojure-extra-classpaths. This doesn't scale for working with multiple clojure projects in emacs. I will probably create a script to make things a bit nicer. But I'd like something fundamentally better. Here are the issues: -I download lots of little projects things from github and i want to munge them all together for my app. This means I need to build jars (some with ant, otehrs with maven, etc.) and in other cases I want to depend directly on the .clj files using clojures namespace-to-dir-structure conventions. So there are a couple different ways to build of the classpath - one for .clj and one for .jar. -Many projects also have their own lib foler - with both jars and cljs, so I need to pick those deps up transatively. -The work in the Clojure community is proceeding very fast, so I'd like updating all the projects from git to be automated as well. So what is a good solution to these problems? Perhaps it would be cool to build some git/maven/lancet aware infrastructure to do this refreshing of deps, building the deps, and building up the classpath. It may also be good to configure .emacs to be able to load projects and rebuild the classpath dynamically based on lancet build files - much in the way that intelliJ or eclipse load projects from ant .builds or maven poms. Is all this too much, am I missing something that already exists? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
