does anyone see what I'm doing wrong here?

> IllegalArgumentException db-spec mount.core.DerefableState@3b36e8 is missing a required parameter clojure.java.jdbc/get-connection (jdbc.clj:292)

based on the output from mount {:started ["#'lumiblog.config/env" "#'lumiblog.core/http-server”]} if you have a separate db somewhere, it didn’t get started/initialized.

yup, I just figured it out. Nothing is requiring lumiblog.db.core, so mount is unaware of it and it doesn't get started

requiring <myapp>.db.core from <myapp>.core fixes it

yeah it’s a bit of a gotcha with mount that namespaces have to be used somewhere for the states to get initialized automatically

by the way, the default way would be to run lein run migrate

Luminus bundles migrations with the app, so that you’re able to run them from the resulting jar as well when you deploy

so what's the difference exactly between lein run migrate and lein migratus?

i think they're both aliases to the same functionality

@plexus: lein migratus runs the migratus-lein plugin, the plugin is mostly handy for creating migration files

although I’m not able to replicate the problem using the latest template:

or rather sorry, misread the original message

your migrations run fine

but you’re starting via lein repl

so the whole migrations thing is a red herring, you can do either and they’ll work, it was just that the db wasn’t used anywhere and (start) didn’t load it
