I want to use leiningen to build and develop my clojure project. Is there a way to modify project.clj to tell it to pick some jars from local directories?
I have some proprietary jars that cannot be uploaded to public repos.
Also, can leiningen be used to maintain a "lib" directory for clojure projects? If a bunch of my clojure projects share the same jars, I don't want to maintain a separate copy for each of them.
Thanks
Create a directory in the project:
mkdir maven_repository
Add local jars to this repository:
For example, this command adds the jaad-0.8.3.jar file to the maven
repository:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -Dfile=jaad-0.8.3.jar -DartifactId=jaad -Dversion=0.8.3 -DgroupId=jaad -Dpackaging=jar -Durl=file:maven_repository
Add the following to project.clj
:repositories {"local" "file:maven_repository"}
Now a regular lein deps should work:
$ lein deps
Downloading: jaad/jaad/0.8.3/jaad-0.8.3.pom from local
Transferring 0K from local
[WARNING] *** CHECKSUM FAILED - Error retrieving checksum file for jaad/jaad/0.8.3/jaad-0.8.3.pom - IGNORING
The warning can be ignored, since the jar will be checked into the project and not downloaded from the internet.
