ooh I tried dirac on regular chrome today and it worked 😄

nice!

cool!

I'm starting to get curious about starting figwheel from the repl

but it's much more of a pain to lein repl and wait for it to start and then type something in

and then there's the issue of it not merging in my dirac lein profile 😞

could be possible to automate it with :repl-options {:init …}

😮 didn't know that was a thing

wait of course it's at hing

see dirac docs: https://github.com/binaryage/dirac#start-dirac-agent

herp derp

also figwheel has pretty heavy documentation about booting figwheel from within nREPL

didn’t try it myself

https://github.com/bhauman/lein-figwheel/wiki/Using-the-Figwheel-REPL-within-NRepl

see this: https://github.com/binaryage/dirac/blob/master/src/agent/dirac/agent_impl.clj#L132-L133 you might need to wrap your figwheel init code in future and execute it later

you would need to do the same trick with figwheel I guess

hmm

do you know how I might be able to go about putting this in a script?

sorry if these are more leiningen questions

I tried putting this stuff in a project namespace and requiring it in the init, but I don't think the project namespaces are available in the init stage

you have to put them into :dev or :repl profile, I think

lein repl has different deps than your project

not sure how this works exactly, still open problem with dirac as well: https://github.com/binaryage/dirac/issues/8

you are ProjectFrank at github?

yes

it's not a dependency problem i'm worried about

I'm trying to put the commands to start figwheel in a project namespace, but I can't seem to require the project namespace in the :init

are you sure that your project namespace is on the classpath of the repl process?

so if I try to put (require myapp.core) in the init, it will error

hm

there are two processes, repl process and your app process, both can have different sets of deps (classpaths), if I understand it correctly

:init runs in the repl process

try to debug print classpath inside the :init

btw. what is the error? complaining about missing class or something else?

ah wait

I think I may have done something silly

I got it working!

my ide was out of sync with the filesystem

so I was editing the wrong file

so my ns declaration was weird

hmm

thanks for the tip with the future btw

was definitely necessary to get the repl working with figwheel
