Connecting to remote repl (docker) can't find sources

[fuadsaud]

I'm running vim on my laptop and connection to a repl running in a docker container.

I can successfully :Connect hostname:port, open the quasi-repl and Eval expressions. However, when I try [<C-d> or :Source and :Doc from my source code, I get Couldn't find source for .... Running (source <symbol>) in the quasi-repl and supplying the exact same symbols from the source files returns the symbol's definition successfully, so I can attest it is able to connect and locate things.

I'm not sure how I can further debug this issue, since fireplace does not spit any detailed logs. I'm also not sure if I can get the nrepl server to get any more verbose, in order to know exactly what fireplace is sending to and getting back from it.

• :Source literally calls clojure.repl/source. I don't see much that could go wrong unless cljs is in the mix.
• :Doc uses CIDER if available, otherwise falls back to clojure.repl/doc.
• [<C-d> uses CIDER or an eval to get a relative filename, then hunts for it in 'path'. Check that :verbose set path? looks like an appropriate class path for your system (outside the container, not in it).
