Wrapper and Utility for Clojure
- JDK
- Clojure
- jline 1.x, only for Windows
- (Optional)
rlwrap, only for Unix
Our script will download Clojure and jline automatically. Hence, you don't need to manage dependency issue except JDK itself.
rlwrap support is detected and added automatically if it is available on a host.
We test our scripts against OpenJDK.
Download clojure-install.bat
Run clojure-install.bat without parameter to install Clojure to default location:
> clojure-install.bat
Default installation path is %USERPROFILE%\clojure, e.g. C:\Users\user\clojure.
Run the script with parameter to install Clojure to some specific prefix:
> clojure-install.bat %USERPROFILE%\opt
In this case, Clojure will be installed to %USERPROFILE%\opt\clojure, e.g. C:\Users\user\opt\clojure.
Remember to set PATH variable by yourself. Later, call Clojure with cljrun.bat.
Download clojure-install.
Run clojure-install without parameter to install Clojure to default location:
$ clojure-install
Default installation path is $HOME/clojure, e.g. /home/user/clojure.
Run the script with parameter to install Clojure to some specific prefix:
> clojure-install $HOME/opt
In this case, Clojure will be installed to $HOME/opt/clojure, e.g. /home/user/opt/clojure.
Remember to set PATH variable by yourself. Later, call Clojure with cljrun.
To avoid name collision with official Clojure cli tools, we name our main scripts cljrun on Unix and cljrun.bat on Windows.
As our cljrun.bat script add jline 1.x support to the REPL environment of Clojure, press Ctrl + d to quit its interactive mode.
Since our cljrun script add optional rlwrap support to the REPL environment of Clojure, press Ctrl + d to exit its interactive mode if rlwrap is available on the host.
Currently, our script fails to compile Clojure with system Maven.
On Windows, Invoke-WebRequest cmdlet is only supported on PowerShell 3.0 or above. PowerShell 3.0 is available on Windows 8 or Windows 7 with service pack 1.
