This guide is used as a note for myself. If you can benefit from this note, that's fine. Here I just wish to document how I work with GitHub and Clojars. I need to do this since I have my own need for Ring middleware to reload automatically a server without restart whenever a namespace in Ring is modified. The original version was not maintained I think, since it uses Clojure 1.2.0.
GitHub
I forked the ring-reload-modified to my Github account. This can be done easily using step 1 and 2 from https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo (I use only step 1 and 2 since I only want to fork and modified my forked version, not upstream version).
Let's say for this time I just want to edit the README.md and project.clj files. After I edit those files, I just put them in committed state:
[bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$ git status # On branch master # Changes not staged for commit: # (use "git add [file]..." to update what will be committed) # (use "git checkout -- [file]..." to discard changes in working directory) # # modified: README.md # modified: project.clj # no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") [bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$
We can see from the status that it has 2 changes: README.md and project.clj but I haven't commit anything. Here's how to commit:
[bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$ git commit -a [master ada41aa] Adjust to latest Clojure version (1.4.0) 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) [bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$
Then it's time to push the committed version to Github repository:
[bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$ git push origin master

Let's see the result in Github profile:

Clojars
To upload the library, I need to prepare my ssh public key first:
[bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$ ssh-keygen -t rsa Generating public/private rsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/bpdp/.ssh/id_rsa): /home/bpdp/.ssh/id_rsa already exists. Overwrite (y/n)? y Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): Enter same passphrase again: Your identification has been saved in /home/bpdp/.ssh/id_rsa. Your public key has been saved in /home/bpdp/.ssh/id_rsa.pub. The key fingerprint is: 87:fc:8f:35:18:20:2e:8f:73:d2:b5:71:ea:0e:85:01 bpdp@bpdp-arch The key's randomart image is: +--[ RSA 2048]----+ | E | | . | | o . | | . = o | | . o S + | | = o B o | | + = o o o | | + o + . | | .o . . | +-----------------+ [bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$
The public key should be put into the Clojars first. So, first we need to register by using http://clojars.org/register:
Now, it's time to upload to Clojars:
[bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$ lein2 jar Created /home/bpdp/master/clojure/libs/ring-reload-modified/target/ring-reload-modified-0.1.2.jar [bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$ lein2 pom Wrote /home/bpdp/master/clojure/libs/ring-reload-modified/pom.xml [bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$ scp pom.xml target/ring-reload-modified-0.1.2.jar clojars@clojars.org: Enter passphrase for key '/home/bpdp/.ssh/id_rsa': Welcome to Clojars, bpdp! pom.xml 100% 2672 2.6KB/s 00:00 ring-reload-modified-0.1.2.jar 100% 5328 5.2KB/s 00:00 Deploying org.clojars.bpdp/ring-reload-modified 0.1.2 Success! Your jars are now available from http://clojars.org/ [bpdp@bpdp-arch ring-reload-modified]$
Now I can use the library that I upload to Clojars:
