Clojurians Log v2

Ok, the solutions I think I found.... 1) I still don't know, but I saw when cider launches a repl it uses nrepl-cmdline which seems to be saving the port a file on the root of the project (.nrepl-port) https://github.com/nrepl/nrepl/blob/be37e0ebd13c2d341bf6a7bcd5735da45b78f909/src/clojure/nrepl/cmdline.clj#L403-L413

2) I thin figwheel launches a single nREPL server, the cmds to cljs or clj are "redirected" through the use of the piggieback middleware, so I shouldn't try to run two nREPLS

3) is basically answered by 2).. 🙂

founds this project that solved the cider-jack-in-clj&cljs debacle for me: https://github.com/EmmanuelOga/deps-cider-cljs-reagent

the "secret sauce" seems to be the config on .dir-locals.el, which customize the way cider launches the repl: https://github.com/EmmanuelOga/deps-cider-cljs-reagent/blob/master/.dir-locals.el

it instructs cider to use the -A:cider alias cmd, and in deps.edn there's a corresponding alias that enables figwheel. There's also config to automatically select a repl of figwheel-main type and the dev build.

sigh, that was a lot to write. Hopefully it will help someone, maybe not 🙂

You should put this on a blog (or just a Gist)! It's useful information.

ah, good point, will do 🙂

> how do you do that with figwheel? Just like you'd do in a regular, non-figwheel project. Figwheel doesn't come with nrepl baked-in:

$ clj -Acider -Sdeps '{:deps {nrepl/nrepl {:mvn/version "0.6.0"}}}' -m nrepl.cmdline
...
nREPL server started on port 49712 on host localhost - <nrepl://localhost:49712>
...
[Figwheel] Starting Server at <http://localhost:9500>
[Figwheel] Starting REPL

$ clojure -Sdeps '{:deps {reply {:mvn/version "0.4.3"}}}' -m reply.main --attach localhost:49712
REPL-y 0.4.3, nREPL 0.6.0
...
user=> (require '[figwheel.main.api :as fig])
nil
user=> (fig/start "dev")
Prompt will show when REPL connects to evaluation environment (i.e. a REPL hosting webpage)
Figwheel Main Controls:
          (figwheel.main/stop-builds id ...)  ;; stops Figwheel autobuilder for ids
          ...
user=> 
(i.e. where we were with `-A:figwheel` or `clojure -m figwheel.main -b dev -r`, but using nrepl)

thx! took me a while but I figured out cider jack in was running the repl cmd line

clojure -A:cider -Sdeps '{:deps {nrepl {:mvn/version ""0.6.0""} cider/piggieback {:mvn/version ""0.4.2""} cider/cider-nrepl {:mvn/version ""0.23.0""}}}' -m nrepl.cmdline --middleware '[""cider.nrepl/cider-middleware"", ""cider.piggieback/wrap-cljs-repl""]'
