Using Deps/CLI for building mixed Clojure & Java projects

[Alan Thompson]

I've seen this conversation:  https://clojureverse.org/t/is-there-a-sales-pitch-for-switching-to-deps-edn-from-lein-in-2020/5367/15

which seems to say there is no existing way to combine Java & Clojure source code when building with deps/CLI.  Is this correct?

If so, what would be entailed in enhancing Deps/CLI to handle Java source files?

Thanks,

Alan

You would need to write a Clojure script with a -main function that would (somehow) compile Java source code according to whatever rules you wanted and then invoke it from the CLI (as an initial step to get the compiled class files onto the classpath that a subsequent CLI invocation could use).

It would be just another tool like any of the others listed here: https://github.com/clojure/tools.deps.alpha/wiki/Tools

And you might look at https://github.com/EwenG/badigeon (which is listed on that tools page) since it says it will "Compile java sources" according to the readme

[Alan Thompson]

Since Kaocha already uses a short shell script to kick things off, I just added a manual Java compile step there.  I saved the results in my Clojure template project:

I'll still take a closer look at badigeon in the future.  It seems to have many useful features.
