`-a` throws exception using boot

JulianKniephoff commented 6 years ago

When I try to generate a new project with the +rum option for example using boot and the instructions in the README I get the following exception:

Here is the command line I used for reference:

boot -d boot/new new -t tenzing -n my-project -a +rum

and my boot version information:

Same for me $ boot -d boot/new new -t tenzing -n tenzing-template-test -a +reagent -a +test results

This happens for me under linux with openjdk 8 and 11 and also under mac with oracle java 8.

I think this issue is related to boot 2.8.1’s changes to some option descriptor stuff. Can you try 2.8.2 which was released recently I believe?

JulianKniephoff commented 6 years ago

The latest release I can see is 2.8.1. I might try installing the latest code myself later at some point, though. :thinking:

Raffinate commented 6 years ago

Older release 2.7.2 works fine for me. It can be specified in boot config file (~/.boot/boot.properties).

Raffinate commented 6 years ago

Looks like https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/issues/707 should fix this issue.

JulianKniephoff commented 5 years ago

I can confirm that it works with

$ boot --version

Cool, thanks! :smile:
