Sort-of functional attempt at porting vim-leiningen to boot. Extreme WIP

boot.vim

Static Vim support for Boot.

• :Console command to start a REPL or focus an existing instance if already running using dispatch.vim.
• Autoconnect fireplace.vim to the REPL, or autostart it with :Console.
• Navigation commands: :Esource, :Emain, :Etest, and :Eresource.
• Alternate between test and implementation with :A.
• Use :make to invoke lein, complete with stacktrace parsing.
• Default dispatch.vim's :Dispatch to running the associated test file.
• 'path' is seeded with the classpath to enable certain static Vim and fireplace.vim behaviors.

Installation

If you don't have a preferred installation method, I recommend NeoBundle.

" In your .vimrc
NeoBundle 'rkneufeld/vim-boot'

Others prefer pathogen.vim. To install, simply copy and paste:

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone git://github.com/rkneufeld/vim-boot.git
git clone git://github.com/tpope/vim-projectionist.git
git clone git://github.com/tpope/vim-dispatch.git
git clone git://github.com/tpope/vim-fireplace.git

Once help tags have been generated, you can view the manual with :help boot.

FAQ

Why does it sometimes take a few extra seconds for Vim to startup?

Much of the functionality of leiningen.vim depends on knowing the classpath. When possible, this is retrieved from a fireplace.vim connection, but if not, this means a call to boot classpath.

You should add the following task to your build.boot:

;; ...

Once retrieved, the classpath is cached until boot.build changes.
