can someone help me, I can't figure out how to use new :npm-deps feature of clojurescript compiler with crisptrutski.boot-cljs-test

it works when :js-env is set to node but doesn't if for example :phantom

@ag saapas seems to have an example :)

I tried walking thing back to just Carmine, the Redis library, and it mostly doesn't compile. I know I've used it before, but I remember jumping through hoops then too. I tried manually adding a bunch of things that are included in Carmine dependancies, and tracked down a couple of includes in those projects to quell these randomish errors that are popping up, kindof grasping at straws... idk, are there other good redis libaries I should be looking at? Is there something good to read on this non-determistic load order/require/qualified namespace problem?

I mean, I still might just be doing something really stupid, idk...

ok, yeah, started from blank slate project twice, and it mostly doesn't compile(>2/3s of the time) after adding just 1) [com.taoensso/carmine "2.16.0"] to .boot, and 2) (:require [taoensso.carmine :as car :refer (wcar)]) to the .api

@john_tollison so it is carmine? Interesting

Looks like it, although like I said, I ran into this problem before. It ran a little while and seemed to resolve w/o explaination, and I didn't followup like I should have

The problem "ran" that is

Probably something started requiring the namespace it needed earlier or something

Current project I'm on fails if you don't go via the dev namespace first

ok, so... "go via the dev namespace first"? I'm sorry. I'm lost. I'm sure I skipped parts of my programming education somewhere

@john_tollison what I mean is that, I'm on a project that only works if you require a particular namespace first. Because of the same issue you have.

@dominicm got it working. All I had to do was resolve the reloaded app/start function in the boot task, like: ((resolve 'my-app.app/start)).

fwiw, I just reset my computer and got my test project to compile 6x in a row. I don't know what's going in the background that causes that. Thanks for your help.

I have a file in my project resources/foo.edn and resources is in my resource-paths, now I also have a test-resources/foo.edn. How can I add test-resources to my resource-paths in a way that ensures the test-resources version is the version that is "used"?

@adamfrey there is no standard way that I know of, so I would set-env! test-resource only in your test wrapper task

This is part of why I tend to call set-env! only once nowadays and developed a declarative approach for boot that does that for me

@adamfrey classpath is searched in order, so you can maybe put it at the front?

I suppose boot treats it as a set though

I don't think this is really considered a good idea

it does only accept a set, although I bet there is an ordering happening in there somewhere

There is. But you're not allowed to depend on that.

in reality my files are log4j.properties files, do you know of another way to handle different resource files with the same name like that?

I think they actually look for test-log4j first

And then "fall back"

that's interesting! I will do some research, thank you

(Logback test 4j did anyway)
