Unable to get cider for clojure working

[murtaza52]

Hi,

Firstly thanks for the great work on prelude !

I cloned your repo, and made it as my ~/.emacs.d. Then I uncommented the clojure module, from the prelude-modules file.

I then restarted prelude and opened a .clj file. This led to couple of files being downloaded and compiled. However when I do M-x, I cant find any commands for cider.

I would love to use prelude for clojure development. I think it provides a great base, and would like to add all my favourite clojure packages to it. Can you please help me debug this issue ?

I don't think cider is installed with prelude. Try using M-x package-list-packages to install.
from the cider github repo installation instructions

However its included in the (prelude-require-packages '(clojure-mode
clojure-test-mode cider)) in the prelude-clojure.el.

Wont this install cider ? If not then where do I include it so that it
installs it on startup. (I want to avoid manual installation using M-x
package-list-packages,
as one of the main advantages of prelude is the ability to specify packages
and have them installed.

You must move the sample/prelude-modules.el to ~/.emacs.d then uncomment/add your required packages (require 'prelude-clojure). https://github.com/bbatsov/prelude#enabling-additional-modules

John thanks for all the help.

I had cloned your repo and had symlinked the cloned folder ~/emacs-prelude
to ~/.emacs.d. So I copied the ~/emacs-prelude/samples/prelude-modules.el
to the ~/emacs-prelude/prelude-modules.el

Now when I start emacs get the following error -

Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading
`/Users/murtaza/.emacs.d/init.elc':
error: Error during download request: Not Found

One curious thing - When I open the ~/emacs-prelude project and search for
the file S-f, I see the prelude-modules.el file still in the sample folder.
However when I open it using C-x C-f I can open it from its correct
physical location.

Download problems happen from time to time. I guess you've managed to download cider in the end.

[murtaza52]

Nope never managed that :) However I love the projectile integration, and
the prelude keybinings (prelude mode). So now I am trying to integrate
prelude wth emacs-live (the other way round), and have one minor hitch in
that. Opening another issue for that.

That's odd. Perhaps you don't know that, but I'm also the developer of cider and it always works fine on Prelude.

[murtaza52]

I must be doing something wrong. I am sure if I had manually installed it
then it would have worked.

I like the autocomplete, git integration, packs etc from emacs-live ....
