Question

When lein sets up a project, a core.clj file is created along with other directories and files. I want to know if I can split core.clj’s content off to another source file under

../myproj/src/myproj/

and if so, how to access that data from core.clj.

Answer 1

IIRC (I don’t have a project handy to check), everything in your src/myproj/ directory is in the 'myproj namespace. So your core.clj file will be in the namespace 'myproj.core. Other files will be in their own namespaces within the 'myproj namespace (e.g. 'myproj.other-file for other_file.clj), and can be pulled into core.clj by doing:

(use 'myproj.other-file)

or, in an ns declaration:

(ns myproj.core
  (:use [myproj.other-file]))
