The output:

REPL server launch timed out.

Yeah, it depends on the fact that the compilation process is very long and the REPL server should have a timeout which is set to a value that it's not enough for the compilation process to reach its end.

You have two options:

a) issue lein compile before issuing lein repl: this way all the very long compilations have been already executed
b) relaunch lein repl: this way some long compilations have already been executed.

I suggest a)

I'm on the way to publish a release which, by using profiles even more deeply that now, is able to workaround the compilation time required to compile the builds all together.

Thanks,

The compilation times varies depending on how busy my laptop is. However, given that starting a project means adding code to it :-) those compilation times will only increase, so it's a problem because that timeout period will be reached eventually.

But btw, I'm a rookie so I don't know - shouldn't nRepl have a parameter for specifying or disabling that timeout?

Thanks to a suggestion from Laurent Petit I now have a solution which uses lein profiles.

Right now I'm testing it and in a couple of our it will be published.

just published the cljs-start 0.1.1 release which significant reduces the compilation time by defining different lein profiles (:dev, :simple and :advanced).

try the following:

lein new cljs-start wonderful-lib
cd wonderful-lib
lein compile
lein repl
(run)
(browser-repl)

visit the localhost:3000 an wait a little bit for the connection to be established before repling

To compile and run test for the :simple to :advanced compilation

lein with-profiles simple do clean, compile, test

I close the issue, which is now solved with the 0.1.1 release.
