Is there an invocation of Clojure that will give the current version number?

*clojure-version* I think

*clojure-version*
{:major 1, :minor 10, :incremental 0, :qualifier nil}

Ah, sorry - I meant about the Clojure CLI tools

When installing in Linux, I don’t want to download curl -O every time if it’s already present and at the correct version.

clojure -Sdescribe?

❯ clojure -Sdescribe | grep -o ':version ".*"' | sed 's/:version //' | sed 's/"//g'

Fantastic! Thanks 🙂

OK, I’m having trouble running the Clojure CLI tools in Elastic Beanstalk, and the AWS support this time isn’t very helpful.

In my logs, I see this error: mkdir: cannot create directory '/.clojure': Permission denied

Which indicates to me that something is trying create a .clojure directory at the root of the filesystem, which is weird.

Are you installing during user data?

Does -Sdescribe try and create .clojure unconditionally?

It seems so — it’s a mess because Elastic Beanstalk is just duct tape under the hood.

So you run your Java command with ruby foreman and supervisord…

Got it, they were setting HOME=/tmp whereas the user actually running the clojure command didn’t have permissions there.

Setting CLJ_CONFIG to /home/webapp/.clojure seemed to have fixed the problem.

there's a ticket about working in read-only fs btw

https://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/TDEPS-119

.ebextensions/setup.config file that works:

option_settings:
  - option_name: CLJ_CONFIG
    value: /home/webapp/.clojure

commands:
  01_install_clojure:
    command: |
      curl -O 
      chmod +x linux-install-1.10.0.442.sh
      sudo ./linux-install-1.10.0.442.sh

currently, clj does need some writable path to work as it always drives at least the cp through the cached cp file

Posted a quick guide to https://clojureverse.org/t/running-a-clojure-application-on-aws-elastic-beanstalk-with-clojure-cli-tools/4161

The project .cpcache works fine, it’s the $CLJ_CONFIG that was giving me trouble…

is there an equivalent of lein's :init-nsconfig, where you specify which namespace to load and switch into by default when starting a repl?

-e "(in-ns 'foo)"

Any ideas why I'd hit this? I'm running on a CI that has permission to git clone via HTTPS.

Error building classpath. ...: Authentication is required but no CredentialsProvider has been registered

Shoot. Looking at tools.gitlibs, it seems like it may not support cloning private repos via HTTPS 😞

It doesn't. I've worked on that.

Have two different approaches for tackling that.

Ah, I see TDEPS-91 and TDEPS-33. I assume there's no workaround for this right now?

I suppose I could try using the shell-git branch here: https://github.com/ghadishayban/tools.gitlibs/tree/shell-git.

... if you could override the tools-deps version the CLI uses.

@kenny GitHub or otherwise?

Where my git deps are coming from?

you can override it if you just hack your clojure script :)

just prepend the source dir to tools_cp
