Hi, I'm not new to Clojure but fairly new to web development so I feel a bit silly asking this because I'm trying to do something simple and can't figure it out. I went through the tutorial and set up my custom index.html page, at the bottom of which I want to load a script. But when I put it there, it loads the page right but I don't get the REPL. There must be something really basic that I'm not getting.

did you specify the -r flag

I mean include it

I launched it with clojure -m figwheel.main --build cruel --repl

OK.. --repl is the same as -r

It works fine as long as I don't include the script I'm trying to load, which is the KLIPSE plugin

I’m not familiar with klipse. Sounds like it’s overwriting something it shouldn’t

the bottom of my file looks like this

<div id="app"></div>
	<!-- this refers to target/public/cljs-out/main.js -->
    <script src="cljs-out/cruel-main.js"></script>
    <script src=""></script>
  </body>
</html>

Klipse might override clojurescript because of how it works, unsure though

I’m guessing you’ll have to include klipse as a dependency and use it in a more direct manner

I suppose that could be. There are instructions on how to host it locally, perhaps I'll try that.

or actually.. You could just give it a sandbox by including it in another html-file and use an iframe

kind of hacky though 🙂

ahh, ok

Thanks for the help. I thought I was doing something obviously wrong or something

Actually, the iframe idea works great!

I wanted to create a single javascript file for deployment in a specific directory, without affecting the dev build. So I created a live.cljs.edn file (copied dev.cljs.edn) and added :output-to with the new path

^{:watch-dirs   ["test" "src"]
  :css-dirs     ["resources/public/css"]
  :auto-testing true}
{:main practicalli-landing-page.core
 :output-to "docs/cljs-out/main.js"}
