lein-unison

A Leiningen plugin to push updates to projects that depend on a common project.

Use this if:

• You have multiple Leiningen projects, either in separate or the same Git repository.
• You are using Voom versioning on your Leiningen projects.
• You have read and write access to all said repositories.
• Your Leiningen projects depend on one-another.
• You want parity across your builds. That is, if you have repo A, which depends on repo B, each time you make a change to B, you would like a build triggered on repo A with A's dependency updated with exactly the changes made to B - nothing more, nothing less.

Usage

In :plugins in your project.clj for the project which you want to push updates from:

[lonocloud/lein-unison "0.1.13"]

Also in your project.clj, name each project that depends on this project:

(defproject my/cool-project "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"
  ;;; ... Project stuff ...
  :unison
  {:repos
   [{:git "git@github.com:my-org/dependent-a.git"
     :release-script "script/release.sh"
     :branch "compatability"
     :release-branch "master"}
    {:git "git@github.com:my-org/dependent-b.git"
     :project-file "subproject-x/project.clj"
     :release-script "bin/release-the-project.sh"
     :branch "master"
     :merge "develop"}
    {:git "git@github.com:my-org/dependent-b.git"
     :project-file "subproject-y/project.clj"
     :release-script "script/release.sh"
     :branch "develop"}]}
  ;;; ... Project stuff ...
)

Notice that you can specify the same repository twice. Use :project-file to point to a project.clj file nested inside a repository. You can also set :project-file to :discover to make this plugin search for and use all project.clj files recursively.

Snapshot release

When your main project ends in "SNAPSHOT", run:

$ lein unison update-projects

For each repository in :repos, lein-unison will run through a series of Git commands. Let's take "dependent-a", for example. lein-unison will:

• Clone "git@github.com:my-org/dependent-a.git" over SSH and checkout branch "compatibility".
• Update dependent-a's dependency on my/cool-project to the current local Voom version for my/cool-project.
• Stage this change in the dependent-a repository.
• Commit to dependent-a with a message indicating the change.
• Push the change.

You can also specify :merge, which points to a branch. Before updating the dependency on branch :branch, :merge will be merged into :branch.

Stable release

When your main projects doesn't end in "SNAPSHOT", it is a release, so run:

$ lein unison release-projects <release-branch>

This command takes a branch name to store release commits in. For each repository in :repos, lein-unison will run through a series of Git commands. Let's take "dependent-a", for example. lein-unison will:

• Clone "git@github.com:my-org/dependent-a.git" over SSH and checkout branch "master" (:release-branch).
• Execute the :release-script file from dependent-a's project root, passing it this project's version and the release-branch as arguments.
