A leightweight clojure starter.

Clojure startup

[does not need to be slow](http://swannodette.github.io/2014/12/22/waitin/).

This uses simple shell scripts in combination with the

[maven clojure plugin](https://github.com/talios/clojure-maven-plugin) to

- start an nREPL server in combination with running custom init scripts

- run project tests

Note: This is not meant to be a replacement for a project.clj or other project

setup. Just to get a clojure runtime up *fast*. And, although this uses maven I want

to avoid a typical maven setup! I experimented to get along without maven but

for dependency management it is quite powerful. Anyway, if you want parent-poms,

archetypes and such then please move along, nothing to see here!

## Usage

After the one time preparation steps (below), change into the directory of your

clojure project and run

- `clj-feather-repl 7889` to start an nREPL server or

- `clj-feather-test` to run the project tests

`repl-init-scripts/` has some scripts that are loaded with the repl.

## TODO

- parameterize class paths

- parameterize init scripts

## Preparation

(one time)

### Install maven

On Mac OS X:

- `brew install maven`

- make sure that the correct jdk is used (by default maven won't pick up a java install). I have this in my .bashrc:

```sh

latest_jdk=`cd /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines; ls | sort | tail -n 1`

export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/$latest_jdk/Contents/Home

```

### set `$CLOJURE_FEATHER` and add it to `$PATH`

Like adding this to your .bashrc:

```sh

export CLOJURE_FEATHER=$HOME/clojure/clj-feather

export PATH=$CLOJURE_FEATHER:$PATH

```
