Has anyone been having problems with boot-cljsjs download? I get

clojure.lang.ExceptionInfo: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: IllegalName: compile__stub.clj_http.headers.clj-http.headers/HeaderMap, compiling:(clj_http/headers.clj:105:1)

@mattly: the target task shouldn't have any relation to reload

a question, when using add-cached-resource I use digest/md5 as key, but what about cache-fn?

hey another thing for us to maintain https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot_(software)

Lol

in srssnss tho, could use a hand with the wiki page. some editor came in an marked it as a stub 😢

Wait until the deletionists merge it with the Clojure page.

Rich Hickey isn't allowed a page.

yeah we'll see. i was amazed at how quickly editors swooped in

i haven't created a page since like 2005, i was pleasantly surprised that the creation barrier is still so low

I've become disillusioned with wikipedia lately. I've found more information in the talk pages a lot of the time.

But because of pokemon, that information isn't allowed on the page itself.

I want someone to take a dump of wikipedia pre-pokemon, and relaunch.

is pokemon some scandal?

err i'm aware of the TV show, just hnt the relationship to wiki

It used to be that every pokemon had a wikipedia page. Now there's ~5 pokemon-related pages. Everything has to pass this bar, that many kinds of content no longer match, e.g. pokemon. This is called the "pokemon test" Rich Hickey only has primary sources (himself). So he can't have a page. Apparently.

ah, yeah

i see that same thing go on in big OSS projects

It's essentially a deletionist mentality which has become prevalent in the wikipedia staff mentality. For a universal compendium of knowledge, I want all the information, not just the information which can be proved via both [crappy newspaper] and the origins.

people with the dumbest ideas seem always to have the most time to defend them

It definitely seems that way.

altho i can respect the philosophical problems inherent in what they're doing lol

for instance, it wouldn't make sense for me to make pages for each of my dreams

but yeah, seems like they've drawn the line way too early. i'm always stunned when i run across clj page and don't see Rich Hickey is a link

Trying to make strict rules for such a broad problem seems impossible. You have start very light, and, well, probably stay that way.

I just went to check a controversial page, the paleo diet, it looks like it's gone. The paleo diet was literally insulted in it's opening sentence, Bill Clinton got more respect in his opening sentence.

yeah the lifestyle and political preferences of people with the most time seem also to always dominate

It seems to be becoming dominated by general "mass opinion"

is there a sort of let-destroy for pod auto annihilation by any chance? 😄

like with-open you mean?

yes but calling pod-destroy

or another question would be: do I need to call pod-destroy every time? I see sometimes is not performed: https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/blob/8bdefc986798db9539f6351958632bf63d0a39a3/boot/core/src/boot/task/built_in.clj#L654

@richiardiandrea: hm, i'd guess that's a leak, probably warrants a core/cleanup

ah ok got it 😄

i sense a cool macro coming

ah ah

it is not that complicated to implement and having a let just for destroying the pod is kind of visually ugly 😄

so yesterday it was working but today when I do:

(pod/with-pod @pod
                  (let [tj (~transit-json ~input-path ~out-path)]
                       (boot.util/dbug "Tj %s\n" tj)
                          (.getPath tj )))

I see Tj (boot.App/getStash "5b3bd323-2670-478e-a8a9-7a3edb9d6313")

I basically moved the code from build.boot to a custom namespace that I require in build.boot

does it make any difference?

I actually see:

:unknown "java.io.File"
Tj (boot.App/getStash "392f10e7-b2be-427e-a2ec-1b1a942368f5")

could be a bug in with-pod

ok, will check...

but first I need to find a workaround

what is the exact use of task i.e. (deftask foo )

@payal: that would declare a task

yes rightt .. I mean what are tasks used for

...mmm maybe this? https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/wiki/Tasks

@payal: tasks are used to do stuff, like compile clojurescript to javascript, start a server, concatenate css, etc.

usually you will need to do a number of things, so tasks are designed in sucha way that they're easily composed with each other

That helped Thanks @micha and @richiardiandrea

:+1:

i just got some insight on installing .exe files for windows from someone who contributed to alda's readme -- might be of interest for boot's readme as well? see: https://github.com/alda-lang/alda/pull/218

(prior to this PR, i shamelessly copied boot's windows install instructions :) )

tl;dr: apparently moving .exe files to windows system root is a bad practice

moving the .exe file to a folder inside of Program Files and adding that folder to PATH may be a better approach

was the from where the pod classpath created from called :directories?

answer: yes - but I don't know why it does not work at the moment here

shall I apply for the best build.boot award ? https://github.com/Lambda-X/cljs-repl-web/blob/devel/build.boot

probably Sean and you guys beat me 😄

@richiardiandrea: holy cow! i think you win lol

that is a tricked-out build.boot

nice @richiardiandrea 😄

@martinklepsch: thanks to your confetti it is actually smaller

I wanted to have a task called "sma" or "save-me", go upload individual files, which is really easy to do with deploy-s3

@richiardiandrea: do you have any particular strategies for deploying? (content-hashing or similar)

@richiardiandrea: are you also using the library on it's own separately to sync-bucket?

Ah, I see, you were referring to your deploy-s3 task wrapping sync-bucket

No hashing for now, just fileset to confetti

It is good enough, buf for sure improvable

What is the proper way to remove your source files when building an uberjar? I have tried doing (uber :exclude #{#".*\.clj.*"}) but then I get a "Invalid signature file digest for Manifest main attributes."

@kenny: you can plug a (sift :include #{#".*\.clj.*"} :invert true)

another option is to put yuor clj code in :source-paths instead of :resource-paths

Ah

so it's in the fileset and on the repl classpath, but isn't "output role"

Right. That works for my case. Doing the sift that @richiardiandrea said won't screw up the manifest like doing :exclude in the uber task did?

Just tested it.. Looks like it doesn't. What is the point of the :exclude option then?

@kenny: I think your option should work but uber caches and there might be some issue with :exclude

Actually the sift option didn't even work. All the .clj* files are still in the uber jar

sift happens after uber so you are kind of "wasting" some processor time...but it is a workaround

@kenny: maybe the regex is wrong?

remember that it is matched against the whole path

Works on http://regexr.com/

Wait never mind.. I was looking at a cached version of the jar somehow.

I use: https://github.com/Lambda-X/boot-pack-source/blob/master/src/replumb/boot_pack_source.clj#L93

ah ok 😄

Still curious about actual use cases for the :exclude option in uber task..

it does the same but while it runs

but there must be a problem, if you have a repro case you might want to open an issue

But if you use it it will change the fileset without updating the manifest causing that java security warning I mentioned above

I was just making sure that my use case was an appropriate use case of it

oh well, yeah, I agree with you that it should be handled...I am going to yield and let more experienced boot-ers continue 😄

Is [adzerk/boot-cljs "1.7.228-1"] compatible with the latest Clojurescript release (1.8.40)?

@danielsz: Yes

@kenny: thanks.
