Clojure Web App

Building web applications with Clojure can be productive and fun, assuming you’re familiar with the underlying protocols and technologies of the web.

What’s in the box?

We have a collection of bin scripts to package up common tasks:

• bin/create-migration: Create up and down files for SQL-based schema migrations
• bin/lint: Spot issues and critique style according to subjective sensibilities
• bin/nrepl: Start an nREPL server (best invoked via devenv)
• bin/tailwind: Run a Tailwind process to watch for use of TailwindCSS classes
• bin/test: Run tests (assuming PostgreSQL is available)

Development

With Nix and devenv

The easiest way to start a development environment is via Nix and devenv:

devenv up

With Docker et al

Start PostgreSQL as per your preference and provide a database URL to the nREPL server process like so:

DATABASE_URL='jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1:5432/web_dev?user=web&password=please' \
  bin/nrepl

For convenience, we provide a Docker Compose file that will run PostgreSQL locally for those who prefer containers.
