You can use `lein run` to execute a function from your project while
avoiding the complexity/distribution of a plugin.
In order to seed from a command line I would::
1. Write a function that can seed the data (like the blog post).
2. Use `lein run -m my.seed.ns/load-fixtures`. This will start a jvm with
all your project deps and then run the specified function.
3. Add an alias to the project.clj by adding `:aliases {"seed" ["run" "-m"
"my.seed.ns/load-fixtures"]}`. This allows the above command to be run
using `lein seed`, which is easier to remember.
