Clojurians Log v2

I think I found a working solution, using https://github.com/anderseknert/ring-clr as an example (thank you). Still, a couple significant differences between Clojure JVM: • No deps.edn – Looks like this is what https://github.com/clojure/clr.core.cli aims to solve? • The cljr file extension isn’t recognized by Clojure.Main – still trying to figure out how this was achieved in ring-clr.

There's a cljr command-line tool that supports deps-cljr.edn and deps.edn (EDN has no reader conditionals so if you need different deps, you have to have different files).

Unfortunately, I don't remember how/where I installed cljr and can't find docs for it in the repos.

Ah, I scrolled back to May here and found the command to install it:

dotnet tool install --global Clojure.Cljr --version 0.1.0-alpha2

PS C:\Users\seanc\clojure\clojure-clr-starter> cat .\deps.edn
{:paths ["src"]
 :aliases {:dev {:extra-paths ["dev"]
                 :extra-deps {org.clojure.clr/tools.nrepl {:mvn/version "0.1.0-alpha1"}}}}}
PS C:\Users\seanc\clojure\clojure-clr-starter> cat .\src\starter\hello.cljr
(ns starter.hello
  (:require [starter.utils :as utils]))

(defn hello-world []
  (println "Hello, World!"))

(defn -main [& args]
  (hello-world)
  (println (utils/square 5)))
PS C:\Users\seanc\clojure\clojure-clr-starter> cljr -M -m starter.hello
Starting main
Hello, World!
25
PS C:\Users\seanc\clojure\clojure-clr-starter>

So there's basic nREPL support as well.

Still early days with the command-line stuff.

and

PS C:\Users\seanc\clojure\clojure-clr-starter> cat .\src\starter\utils.cljr
(ns starter.utils)

(defn square [x]
  (* x x))

And here are my versions (of Clojure.Main and cljr):

PS C:\Users\seanc\clojure\clojure-clr-starter> cljr
Starting main
Clojure 1.12.0-alpha9
user=> ^Z

PS C:\Users\seanc\clojure\clojure-clr-starter> cljr -version
ClojureCLR CLI Version: 0.1.0.0

This is awesome–feels way more like the traditional clojure process. Thank you!

A slight correction on the .edn conditionalization file: the file cljr looks for first is deps-clr.edn:

However, we cannot just read-conditionalization the deps.edn file because read-conditionalization is not supported in EDN files. The workaround is that cljr will look for a file named deps-clr.edn first, then look for deps.edn. This provides an override that cljr can see and the JVM tools will ignore.
