Step by step for Clj noobs? #13

Closed Brick-Tamland closed 6 years ago

Brick-Tamland commented 6 years ago

Clojure noob here. Got lost somewhere along the way, wondering if someone could point me in the right direction?

Get Clojure runtime. check. Get Leiningen. Check Get OpenSCAD. Check. Cloned adereth/dactyl-keyboard repo. Check. Open things/*Scad file in OpenSCAD. Cool.

Now here is where I am lost: Have Dactyl.clj open in Sublime3 Changed rows to 6x6 Saved. in Terminal Cd to src/dactyl-keyboard/dactyl.clj Lein repl. load-file "src/dactyl-keyboard/dactyl.clj" Get this ouput:

object[clojure.lang.RT$3 0x6106f905 "clojure.lang.RT$3@6106f905"]

"src/dactyl_keyboard/dactyl.clj"

And no changes to things/*scad files or to OpenSCAD render?

Edit src/dactyl_keyboard/dactyl.clj with

(def nrows 6)
(def ncols 6)

run lein repl. I did this in the root of the project. In the REPL, run (load-file "src/dactyl_keyboard/dactyl.clj"). Note that the parentheses are required.

The output should be #'dactyl-keyboard.dactyl/-main

Open things/left.scad, and you should be able to see the new files.
