If not I’ll write my own 🙂
I’ll probably make use of the new `lein deps :tree-data` task.

There is [https://github.com/RickMoynihan/lein-tools-deps](https://github.com/RickMoynihan/lein-tools-deps) which does something similar.

Thanks, but I think lein-tools-deps goes (at least conceptually) from deps.edn -\> lein deps, whereas I wanted to do the reverse. In the end I just used multi-select in my editor to turn all the `[example-artifact "0.1.0"]` vectors into `example-artifact {:mvn/version "0.1.0"}` key-val pairs.

A converter tool sounds like a great idea.

A tool called depify now exists, based on the above gist, which does what you want (I didn’t write it, I just noticed it recently).

Ah cool, hadn’t seen depify.
I deployed a little ClojureScript tool that translates project.clj `:dependencies` to deps.edn `:deps` that I called depsy: [https://theronic.github.io/depsy/](https://theronic.github.io/depsy/)
Would be cool to integrate depify with it to handle an entire project.clj file :). Happy coding, everyone!
