I'm building a project based on descjop and reagent, created using the command:
lein new descjop <myproj> +reagent
The repl started by lein figwheel works ok but has very basic functionality. There is no command history, and no cursor control. Ideally I would like the full cider/nrepl/clj-refactor functionality but just some basic history and command editing would do.
Is there any easy way to improve the current repl? I have tried exploring the generated code, but I can't see how the decjop template is setting up the clojurescript repl. Any clues to how this works would be helpful.
Alternatively is there any way I can set up an alternative clojurescript repl to connect with my running electron app?
If you are on a Unix type machine then you can install rlwrap. Then instead of starting the REPL from the command line like so:
lein figwheel
Start it like this:
rlwrap lein figwheel
Then you will get history (using up and down arrows) and basic editing.
