I’m trying to use the :deps/root and it’s not seeming to find the manifest file
clj -Sdeps '{:aliases {:starburst/test {:extra-deps {starburst/driver {:local/root "/Users/dan/projects/work/starburst-metabase-driver" :deps/root "drivers/starburst"}}}}}' -A:starburst/test
Error building classpath. Manifest file not found for starburst/driver in coordinate {:local/root "/Users/dan/projects/work/starburst-metabase-driver", :deps/root "drivers/starburst"}deps.edn file is definitely there
❯ ls /Users/dan/projects/work/starburst-metabase-driver/drivers/starburst
# <------------- local/root -----------------------> <-- deps/root -->
deps.edn resources src test/ at the end or beginning of the coordinates. And of course i can start this up with
clj -Sdeps '{:aliases {:starburst/test {:extra-deps {starburst/driver {:local/root "/Users/dan/projects/work/starburst-metabase-driver/drivers/starburst"}}}}}' -A:starburst/test

:deps/root does not work with local deps at the moment, although there is a jira and a patch for it that I need to review
you can of course just point your :local/root into the subpath
yeah. Got there. I’m getting the dreaded “WARNING: Use of :paths external to the project has been deprecated”. I’m trying to test two projects in conjunction with each other (3rd party drivers written for metabase)
Ideally could get this working with the git dep but i can’t easily add it’s test directory to the classpath. So i need to know its location to add <location>/test.
https://clojure.atlassian.net/browse/TDEPS-246
When knowing the location, we want to test the two projects in coordination so the restriction that the dep must be inside the project seems contrary to what we are doing.
ah. i misread the warning
the dep is fine. It’s adding it’s test classpath root that it’s complaining about. And i don’t know how to solve that until aliases on deps lands?
using a relative local dep is I think the right answer in this case, sorry the deps/root thing is not working yet. accessing arbitrary paths "outside" / "above" the project is imo a security issue as you could include a transitive dep that pulls in arbitrary paths on your disk, and that seems bad
but to your real problem, hoping to spend some time in 2025 in surfacing aliases in deps and making a path to get to (for example) a :test alias
I am eagerly and patiently awaiting 🙏
> hoping to spend some time in 2025 in surfacing aliases in deps and making a path to get to (for example) a :test alias This is excellent to hear! Thanks @alexmiller!
Any idea when https://clojure.atlassian.net/browse/TDEPS-246 would be looked at?
nope
