Running Clojure with 'lein swank' on Aquamacs problem

votes

I installed leiningen and ran lein swank,

  1. sudo lein deps
  2. lein swank

Aquamacs has everything about SLIME, so it's OK.

Solution to this problem

David helped me to be out of trouble. As Aquamacs has built-in SLIME, I didn't need anything complex about the setup. I just needed one line - (slime-setup '(slime-repl)).

A couple of things I notice right away: (1) don't use sudo for lein deps (or any other Leiningen-related commands); (2) do not mix JLine with Emacs. Other than that, could you paste in a complete example of your attempt at interacting with the REPL (from the very start up to at least the "numbers like 1,2,3")? Also, I've written a sort of a meta-tutorial on setting up Clojure with Emacs here: stackoverflow.com/questions/2285437/… -- it's likely to be applicable to Aquamacs as well. – Michał Marczyk
I elaborated the question. Thanks for the answer. – prosseek

I had the same problem if I used (slime-setup '(slime-fancy)). Changing it to (slime-setup '(slime-repl)) fixed it.

I found this the easiest setup for the latest version of everything. Here's a quick summary where I"m assuming you have leiningen installed.

Install the swank-clojure plugin

$ lein plugin install swank-clojure 1.3.2

Create your clojure project

$ lein new test-project
$ cd test-project
$ lein deps

Then open one of the clojure files from your project in emacs and run clojure-jack-in

M-x clojure-jack-in

You are now in a slime buffer with clojure and the dependencies for your project loaded.

I found that I needed this in my .emacs to get it to work:

(eval-after-load "slime"
  '(progn
     (slime-setup '(slime-fancy slime-asdf))))
