I used to be able to directly call functions defined in clojure files in my script directory like:
;;in bb.edn
{:paths ["script"]
:tasks {test (my-utils/test)}};;in bb.edn
{:paths ["script"]
:tasks
{:init (require 'my-utils)
test (my-utils/test)}}

If you mention the function without parens it works without a require. With parens it’s an arbitrary expression which needs an explicit require
borkdude 2025-04-24T07:10:55.611169Z
That’s always been like that, nothing changed

Ah, I see now in my older bb projects that "used to work" there are no parens. So PEBCAK 😔

have you defined a namespace? in the script
kiemdoder 2025-04-24T06:45:24.211459Z
I did, yes
kiemdoder 2025-04-24T06:46:14.072409Z
I also tried a namespace without a "-" just in case it was that
m3tti 2025-04-24T06:48:57.864649Z
ok what about no namespace at all?
m3tti 2025-04-24T06:49:07.247409Z
i'm just thinking loud 😄
kiemdoder 2025-04-24T06:52:23.675789Z
a clj file with no namespace does not work either

The extra require in the bb.edn file is not a big deal. I was just curios why it it was not required in the past.
