Clojurians Log v2

GraalVM 19.3.0 was released yesterday which is a LTS release. I've retried building clj-kondo for Windows with this and this time it seems it works better than last time. This is a zip with the .exe: https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/oqwh72id7x3q8es2/artifacts/clj-kondo-2019.11.08-SNAPSHOT-windows-amd64.zip Windows users are welcome to try it out, by e.g. calling clj-kondo.exe --lint src for linting a source directory. If that works well, it could also mean that having a multi-platform native build of clj could be feasible using GraalVM.

these are my results:

kamik@RED-X1C6 MINGW64 /d/work/create-cljs-app (master)
$ ./clj-kondo.exe --lint src template/src
linting took 47ms, errors: 0, warnings: 0

kamik@RED-X1C6 MINGW64 /d/work/create-cljs-app (master)
$ java -jar clj-kondo-2019.11.07-standalone.jar --lint src template/src
linting took 330ms, errors: 0, warnings: 0

I find it surprising how much larger the exe is though

$ ls -lha clj-kondo*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 kamik 197609  18M Nov 21 13:41 clj-kondo.exe
-rw-r--r-- 1 kamik 197609 8.8M Nov 21 13:40 clj-kondo-2019.11.07-standalone.jar

the linux/osx executables are smaller than the jar

I don't know the details of this, but I would't worry about 10 mb

if it works, it's already quite something

let me add a linting error to validate

I was just going to suggest that 🙂

awesome. looks like we're back in business for windows native then?

can you also test from cmd.exe maybe?

and powershell as well

powershell

worth mentioning that the reported time is not the total time

yeah, it works more or less like time

if we were going by reported time, it would seem like a 6x speed increase. real time however, is more like 25x speed increase.

anyway, the startup of the native is much faster than the .jar I presume?

time to get https://github.com/borkdude/scoop-bucket back from under the dust for the next release I guess 🙂

and when we're absolutely sure this works, we can also move to the executable for the npm installer

yes, much, much faster

shall we continue in #clj-kondo as to not pollute this precious channel more with specifics?
