A few custom boot tasks

boot-cider

Setting up boot to start a cider enabled repl involves adding cider-nrepl as a dependency and also some nrepl-middleware.

The upgradingdave.boot-cider task will attempt to automatically discover which versions of cider-nrepl and clj-refactor elisp packages are installed inside .emacs.d/elpa. When it finds cider or clj-refactor installed in elpa, this will wire everything up so that running the following will create a nice cider-enabled nrepl:

(require '[upgradingdave.boot-cider :refer [cider]])

boot cider nrepl

(make sure to call the cider task before the nrepl task)

To make it even more automatic, you can customize cider to use this cider task when doing cider-jack-in. Just add this to your emacs config

(setq cider-boot-parameters "cider repl -s wait")

You can also pass it specific version numbers for cider-nrepl and/or clj-refactor

boot cider --cider "0.9.1" --refactor "1.1.0" nrepl

boot-expect

I wanted to use the expectations library with emacs and found this thread.

upgradingdave.boot-expect is an attempt to write a boot task to run expectations.

(require '[upgradingdave.boot-expect :refer [expect]])

To run expectations for all namespaces

boot expect

You can specify namespaces

boot expect -n my-ns.one -n my-ns.two

You can also filter on namespaces

boot expect -f "(re-matches #\"my-ns.*\" %)"

Run expectations whenever files change

boot watch expect

Note: I encountered jvm out of memory exceptions when using Java 7. I upgraded to Java 8 and haven't seen any problems since.

Themes for the speak task

As you know, a very important part of any build system is what sounds it plays when the build succeeds or fails.

Add this as a dependency to your project and get some extra themes for the speak task

(merge-env!
  [upgradingdave/boot-dave   "0.1.0"])

(boot (speak :theme "homer"))

install-clj

Task to create pom, create jar containing clj code, and deploy the jar to local maven repository.

(def +version+ "0.1.0")
(task-options!
 pom {:project 'my-group/my-project-name
      :version +version+
      :description "My awesome project"})

(boot (install-clj))
