vine

Vine is a library for resolving dependencies via Apache Ivy and generating ivy.xml files for clojure project definitions. It is used by the lein-ivy leiningen plugin to allow clojure projects to resolve against and publish to Ivy repositories.

Features

• :conf - Ivy configurations. Map to Maven scopes when using maven repositories.

      [foo "1.0.0+" :conf "master"]
      [bar "1.0.0+" :conf "jetty"]

• :transitive true/false - Resolve transitively or not (pull down just that modules artifacts, or that modules artifacts and all of it's dependencies artifacts).

      [foo "1.0.0+" :transitive false]

• latest.integration/latest.release revisions.

      [foo "latest.integration"]
      [bar "latest.release"]

• branches - In addition to revisions, dependencies can also have a branch.

      [scratch "latest.integration" :branch "foo"]

• force revision - By specifying :force "true" in a dependency you can stop conflict managers from evicting old revisions.

• changing modules - By specifying :changing "true" you can have ivy ignore the cache for this particular dependency.

• :ivy-settings "path/to/ivysettings.xml" - You can specify your own ivysettings file. Note that the default clojure and clojars repositories are not automatically added when supplying a custom ivysettings file. In addition, any :repositories in project.clj will be added to an ivy chain named "default".

Usage

See lein-ivy.

TODO

Vine and lein-ivy should eventually support all the features of the Cake Ivy branch. Currently only resolution is supported.
