shadow-cljs and lein ring uberjar

[Scott Klarenbach]

When I run "lein ring uberjar", after it builds the jar file it triggers the shadow-cljs :app build and rebuilds all client code.

I was wanting it to just build the jar file, since the client build is triggered using lein prod.

Is this default behavior or have I screwed something up?

Hard to say what you are doing without seeing the config. Your config is doing this, neither lein or shadow-cljs will do this on their own.

I typically recommend keeping things separate since that make things much easier to understand and debug.

shadow-cljs release app && lein ring uberjar

lein or ring don't need to do anything with CLJS other than taking the files shadow-cljs produced and putting them into the .jar they create. That typically happens automatically if you output to some folder on your classpath (eg. resources/public/js).
