Hey folks, before I open an issue, has anyone else encountered this when using bb v0.2.5?

19:35 $ bb
Babashka v0.2.5 REPL.
Use :repl/quit or :repl/exit to quit the REPL.
Clojure rocks, Bash reaches.

For Reasons(TM) I wanted to have bb be part of my circle ci environment. Of course, I’m stuck on how to install bb in circle. Yes, it’s most likely me, but any help on how to make bb available during my circle jobs would be really appreciated.

The bash wget thingy fails with a missing filedescriptor.

Not using bb in circle, but we just straight up curl -L via GH release urls

Thanks! that worked.

- run:
         name: Install babashka
         command: |
            curl -L --output bb.zip 
            unzip bb.zip
            chmod a+x bb

Please don’t get me started on how much I love yaml…

Yep,also you can leverage Circle's cache and not download the file on each run

@slipset babashka also has an install script: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/borkdude/babashka/master/install It supports a --version argument if you want to lock the version

but curl and unzip is fine too

and btw, you can generate the yaml from edn with babashka too ;)

That’s what I tried first, but it failed on circle. Maybe /tmp is not available on circle?

each run is in a separate container I believe, and only cached storage is shared

makes sense. in clj-kondo that is configurable too: https://github.com/borkdude/clj-kondo/blob/0d31f63e40f220dff88670335ad639d39647314c/script/install-clj-kondo#L18 should probably copy that

sorry - I need to clarify, you can write to tmp, but you also instruct circle to persist paths in cache and restore it

it's a bit fiddly to be honest

here's how we're caching maven deps: https://github.com/nomnom-insights/nomnom.bunnicula/blob/master/.circleci/config.yml#L23-L35 - similar mechanism works for anything

@slipset I now added the --download-dir option to the script: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/borkdude/babashka/master/install E.g.:

./install --dir . --version 0.2.5 --download-dir . 

Thanks!

My first bb script https://github.com/slipset/cautious-engine/blob/main/.circleci/maybe-deploy.bb

And 🙂

#!/bin/bash -eo pipefail
bash <(curl -s ) --dir . --download-dir .
Downloading  to .
Successfully installed bb in ..

Thanks for the quick turnaround!

@slipset ha, we have exactly the same script in bash because Circle cannot do conditional step runs

@lukaszkorecki so do we 🙂
