Feature request: release to Clojars with ClojureScript

[jiyinyiyong]

I don’t like running boot of lein…

I’ve been doing this with the clj cli. You can generate dependencies and paths into your pom.xml from deps.edn by running clj -Spom. Then run mvn deploy. Here’s an example pom.xml file for a project I published: https://github.com/protocol55/styleguide/blob/master/pom.xml

what’s the internals behind this?

[colinkahn]

For the clj command there’s more information here: https://clojure.org/reference/deps_and_cli

[jiyinyiyong]

I meant “pom” and “maven”?

[colinkahn]

Actually this is a good article to look at, jump down to “Publishing with Clojars” https://oli.me.uk/2018-02-26-clojure-projects-from-scratch/

Can’t really give more details on pom and maven since they’re rather new to me as well

• Update the version number in our pom.xml .
• Run the tests with clj -Atest .
• Run clj -Spom to update our pom.xml with any dependency changes.
• Run mvn deploy .

So if I can generate a same pom.xml, I would be able to release to Clojars with maven command. How about the jar file? It’s zip file of my source code. Which program handles creating jar file?

[thheller]

maven does. maven is the package manager for Java and everything is using it. pom.xml is their configuration file.

FWIW just use lein for now. Getting deps.edn + clj + mvn to work together is a lot more work and the end result will be same but a lot more complicated than just project.clj. Plus you are trading having lein installed for having clj + mvn installed.

[jiyinyiyong]

I already have clj and mvn on my system. I don’t have Lein since I develop ClojureScript only. And I installed Boot only for running boot deploy at current. I would actually bare the boring steps of clj + mvn, if I can get rid of Lein and Boot. Besides, I can add scripts to reduces the steps.

You may also want to look at meyvn which is a clj script that intends to expose some of that Maven stuff in a nice way.

Why do you have maven? I’d find it would make more sense for you to have lein rather then maven no?

[jiyinyiyong]

This is my workflow https://github.com/Cumulo/cumulo-workflow , I use shadow-cljs, no Lein.

The bash history has lost. I can roughly recalled I installed Maven in order to debug some problem I encountered while debugging shadow-cljs. Like viewing dependency tree with Maven?
