Need to execute a command before figwheel starts ?

[metacritical]

I need to execute a command say # electron . in a separate subprocess before figwheel starts is there a possibility one could use :eval-fn key to execute say a clojure.java.shell? or maybe other clever way in figwheel?

If you want a particularly custom lifecycle you can use Component to coordinate things in just the right way for your project. I don't quite understand the context, but could you also just run something like this?

$ ./run-my-command.sh && lein figwheel

Thanks., can you give an example how to use :eval-fn key?

[danielcompton]

I don't think :eval-fn is what you want, that seems more for customising the eval command that the browser client is going to run, not for running arbitrary functions. I think this is more of a usage question than a feature request that might get more responses in the #lein-figwheel channel on Clojurians Slack?
