dev.clojurephant.clojurescript

Base ClojureScript Support

Applies the dev.clojurephant.clojurescript-base plugin.

Java Support

Applies the Gradle built-in java plugin to get convention-based support for the JVM ecosystem.

The high-level features of the java plugin are:

  • Creating a main source set for your production code

  • Creating a jar task that packages the main source set’s output

  • Creating a test source set for use with JUnit testing

    • The test source set depends on the main source set’s output (i.e. Java classes)

    • Creates a test task to execute the tests

Development Source

Its conventional in Clojure/ClojureScript projects to have a set of development-only source code, typically for use in a REPL environment.

The convention plugins create a new SourceSet named dev to house this code. The dev source sets’s dependency "buckets" extend from the test and main ones, avoiding the need to repeat declaring dependencies.

Compile Classpath

  • Clojure/ClojureScript source from the test source set

  • Clojure/ClojureScript source from the main source set

  • Compiled Java classes from the main source set

  • the source set’s compileClasspath configuration dependencies (which include the deps from test and main)

Runtime (REPL) Classpath

  • Clojure/ClojureScript source from the dev source set

  • Clojure/ClojureScript source from the test source set

  • Clojure/ClojureScript source from the main source set

  • Compiled Java classes from the main source set

  • the source set’s compileClasspath configuration dependencies (which include the deps from test and main)

  • sources and javadoc JARs of all dependencies (where available) — this can be used by editor’s like CIDER to help with navigate to source or documentation

  • nrepl configuration dependencies (the nREPL server and any "jacked-in" dependencies)

REPL Task

Creates a ClojureNRepl task (named clojureRepl) to provide an nREPL server using the dev runtime classpath.
