Clojure.MSBuild

MSBuild integration for ClojureCLR. Build, test, and run Clojure on .NET with standard dotnet commands.

Written entirely in ClojureCLR — no C# required.

Requirements

.NET 11.0 SDK (preview) or later
Clojure CLR 1.12.3-alpha5 or later

Quick Start

1. Create a project

dotnet new console -n MyApp
cd MyApp

2. Add packages

dotnet add package Clojure.MSBuild
dotnet add package Clojure --version 1.12.3-alpha5

3. Update your .csproj

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net11.0</TargetFramework>
    <ClojureMainNamespace>app</ClojureMainNamespace>
    <CopyLocalLockFileAssemblies>true</CopyLocalLockFileAssemblies>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Clojure.MSBuild" Version="0.0.1" />
    <PackageReference Include="Clojure" Version="1.12.3-alpha5" />
  </ItemGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <Content Include="src/**/*.cljr" CopyToOutputDirectory="PreserveNewest" />
  </ItemGroup>

</Project>

4. Write your app

Create src/app.cljr:

(ns app)

(defn -main [& args]
  (println "Hello from ClojureCLR!"))

5. Run it

dotnet run

Testing

Add the test adapter package:

dotnet add package Clojure.MSBuild.TestAdapter
dotnet add package Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk

Add test content to your .csproj:

<Content Include="test/**/*.cljr" CopyToOutputDirectory="PreserveNewest" />

Create test files with the _test.cljr suffix in a test/ directory:

(ns app-test
  (:require [clojure.test :refer [deftest is testing]]))

(deftest test-addition
  (testing "math works"
    (is (= 4 (+ 2 2)))))

Run tests:

dotnet test

REPL

dotnet msbuild /t:clj-repl

nREPL

dotnet add package clojure.tools.nrepl --prerelease
dotnet msbuild /t:clj-nrepl

Connects on port 1667. Use Calva, CIDER, or any nREPL client.

Run a Script

dotnet msbuild /t:clj-run -p:File=path/to/script.clj

AOT Compilation

Compile namespaces to .NET DLLs during build:

<PropertyGroup>
  <ClojureCompileOnBuild>true</ClojureCompileOnBuild>
  <ClojureNamespacesToCompile>my.lib;my.utils</ClojureNamespacesToCompile>
</PropertyGroup>

Configuration

Property	Description	Default
`ClojureMainNamespace`	Namespace with `-main` function	(required)
`ClojureSourceDir`	Source directory	`src`
`ClojureExtraSourceDirs`	Additional source dirs (pipe-separated)
`ClojureCompileOnBuild`	AOT compile on build	`false`
`ClojureNamespacesToCompile`	Namespaces to compile (semicolon-separated)

Examples

examples/minimal-api — ASP.NET web API with async Dapper/SQLite and property-based tests
