Hey there, everyone... I am a little lost, but probably just being stupid; I want to create an uberjar from my tools-deps based application. Any clues, links, etc..? (My Google-Fu has failed me completely)

https://github.com/juxt/pack.alpha and https://github.com/healthfinch/depstar/

Thanks @dominicm

@dominicm - Which Jar approach would you recommend via Pack for Docker-based deployment..?

@maleghast I recommend capsule as a good default 🙂

🙂

Thx

@dominicm - I may be doing something stupid (very likely), but on running the following:

clj -A:pack mach.pack.alpha.capsule foundation.jar -e build-dir --application-id foundation --application-version "$(git describe)" -m foundation.main

What output are you getting? None?

er, hold on...

@dominicm I get / got this -> https://gist.github.com/maleghast/b671e5299d709c79813ca80b4a81f7bd

There's a file named after the namespace, odd!

What's in it?

Also, how does your pack alias look?

huh?

There's a file named mach.pack.alpha.capsule in that folder

Yeah, I know

What is it?

I copied your command from the Pack Github page and just changed the name of the output jarfile and the app main namespace (it's up there ^^)

I have no idea what it is, I thought it was supposed to be there.

Nope

What does your pack section in deps.Edn look like?

Er, one sec

:pack {:extra-deps
         {pack/pack.alpha
           {:git/url ""
            :sha "1d455f6c591f440560c57a29e6d930004d735dcf"}}
         :main-opts ["-m" "mach.pack.alpha.capsule"
                     "-m" "foundation.main"]}

@maleghast I recommend you to stay with lein for some time. pack.alpha, depstar and other have some lacks... one of them copy src files into uberjar, another doesn't copy resource folder into uberjar. I've investigated all of them and IMO lein is still preferable way to build uberjar.

@maleghast most promising tool is https://github.com/luchiniatwork/cambada

Thanks @mike1452 I will take a look... The app I am trying to UberJar is built on top of a library that @dominicm works on, that uses tools.clojure and deps.edn and as such uses neither leiningen or boot, and I am loath to add either into the mix if I don't have to. That being said, if I have to...

@dominicm - I think that I know what's wrong with the command I pasted above...

this works:

clj -A:pack foundation.jar --application-id foundation --application-version "$(git describe)" -m foundation.main

@dominicm - yeah, that does work... However I need to figure out how to package up the CSS etc. as the app is functioning, but looks AWFUL 😉

@maleghast yeah, I figured that the alias you had already had the mach.pack.alpha.capsule in the alias 🙂

Yeah, that's what I worked out as well...

@maleghast the -e build_dir option is a flag to provide an extra directory to be combined into the jar. So you can build your css/js into a directory, and have it run.

If you're using edge, there's an uberjar script in master which has these steps in 🙂

Ah... Thanks! 🙂

(I am using edge)

Made a script for grepping in your classpath: https://gist.github.com/pesterhazy/74f6bc235dfe5f64690250d2ee84969d

e.g. clojure -Spath | unpack-cp, then cd to that directory and run grep from there

@dominicm Did you use pack/pack.alpha? can't understand how to avoid copying source files into uberjar using this tool
