I wrote support for configuration with different environments into Ciste.[1] You create a config.clj file at the root of your application that contains a map with each of the keys being a keyword naming the environment and the value is a map for all the config options. You can then use set-environment! or with-environment to set the current environment. You can then wrap some code in definitializer. That code will be run whenever the environment changes. I set the environment when my application runs and then wrap all my tests in (with-environment :test ) The config namespace should be isolated enough that you could use it without involving any of the other features. 1: https://github.com/duck1123/ciste/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk8ZoO0ACgkQWorbjR01Cx59cACffeQeffgR0zgtqt5FXGaQy9gx zz8An2pMclSd+qA8dxc8XMPB+gMbhNjR =XbSs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
