namespace-not-found

[hillman]

Hi,

Really like the project, sounds promising. I've just tried it on a fairly simple 'hello world' project and I'm getting an error though. "lein run" works, but "quick lein run" gives this:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/quick", line 267, in elif len(sys.argv) > 1 and sys.argv[1] == 'lein': exit_code = lein(*sys.argv[2:]) File "/usr/local/bin/quick", line 250, in lein result = evaluate(code, ns='leiningen.core.main') File "/usr/local/bin/quick", line 173, in evaluate raise Exception('Eval returned bad exit status: %s' % (message['status'][0])) Exception: Eval returned bad exit status: namespace-not-found

Am I doing something stupid?

Thanks,

Jamie

No, it's probably a bug. I'll try to fix it later today. Thanks!

I'm having trouble reproducing this error. Here is what I tried:

$ lein new app hello
$ cd hello
$ lein run
Hello, World!
$ quick lein run
Hello, World!

Is there any way you can provide some steps to reproduce what you're seeing?

[hillman]

Weird, maybe it's specific to a particular version of Lein? I just tried the same thing on a completely different PC - the exact steps you've given above and it produces the same namespace error. Lein 2.3.4 on Linux.

OK, I was able to reproduce the bug on my ArchLinux system. The weird thing is, grenchman exhibits the same bug. Which is unfortunate, as I was hoping to use grenchman to figure out what I was doing wrong :(

This only seems to affect leiningen when used in project mode. Using quick in global leiningen mode handles lein commands just fine. The only thing I can think of is that the project-mode REPL doesn't require the leiningen.core.main namespace by default. But when I tried adding a (require ...) line to my script, it didn't seem to help. I'm going to have to do some more messing around to figure out why this isn't working.

[benwbooth]

What I've managed to discover is that grenchman simply does not support connecting to project-local nREPL sessions. quick-clojure supports this, but trying to run a lein command in an project-local REPL session will fail. A workaround is to start a global nREPL session, by running quick start in your home directory top folder. Then cd into your project folder, and type quick lein run and it works.

[benwbooth]

OK, I think I have this figured out now. Any lein commands have to be run in the top-level nREPL instance, otherwise the leiningen modules won't be loaded. If you try to run a lein command in a project-level nREPL session, it won't find the leiningen libs (unless you put them in your project.clj as dependencies). So I've modified the quick script to always use a top-level nREPL session for leiningen commands. Hopefully this should fix the problem.

[benwbooth]

I just uploaded v0.9 to PyPI, which should fix this problem by always running leiningen commands in a top-level REPL session.

Great, thanks very much!
