CLJS watcher

A simple shell script that watches for changes to CLJS files and recompiles them for you.

This is a fork of https://github.com/ibdknox/cljs-watch which brings following modifications/additions:

• support for Windows
• no optimization by default

Usage

You must have ClojureScript already setup and have $CLOJURESCRIPT_HOME correctly set.

Put cljs-watch on your $PATH (such as in /usr/local/bin) and then simply run it from your project root:

#without options it watches the src/ directory
cljs-watch

#it can also take a directory and compile options
cljs-watch cljs-src/ '{:optimizations :none :output-to "test.js"}'

#on windows you need to escape quotes
cljs-watch.bat cljs-src\ "{:optimizations :none :output-to \"test.js\"}"

Notes

• the default output-to is set to resources/public/cljs/bootstrap.js
• it will add the local lib/ to your classpath when you run it, allowing you to have other cljs deps in that folder
• to add custom macros, you can use create a folder called cljs-macros/ from the root directory and add your macros there. You can also put macros in CLOJURESCRIPT_HOME/lib/ to have them globally available.
