using local Maven repository in boot Clojure

Question

I'd like to use the local Maven repository (at ~/.m2/repository by default) to find a dependency for a Clojure project built by boot.

I am quite certain that the dependency is in the repository:

$ ls ~/.m2/repository/ags799/boot-docker/0.0.0-7-gd5196b9-dirty/
_maven.repositories
boot-docker-0.0.0-7-gd5196b9-dirty.jar
boot-docker-0.0.0-7-gd5196b9-dirty.pom

I'm quite certain that my project properly refers to the dependency. This is my build.boot

(set-env! :dependencies `[[org.clojure/clojure ~(clojure-version)]
                          [ags799/boot-docker "0.0.0-7-gd5196b9-dirty.jar"]])

(task-options!
  pom {:project 'example
       :version "0.0.0"}
  aot {:namespace #{'example.core}}
  jar {:main 'example.core})

However, when I run boot repl, I get this:

I have also tried manually setting boot's path to the local Maven repository by including :local-repo "~/.m2/repository" in the set-env! command. This does not change the output.

I have also tried replacing ~ in this path with the explicit $HOME path (/Users/andrew). This does not change the output.

This is my project's boot.properties:

BOOT_CLOJURE_NAME=org.clojure/clojure
BOOT_CLOJURE_VERSION=1.8.0
BOOT_VERSION=2.7.2

How can my project use the local Maven repository for finding dependencies? Many thanks.

Answer 1

The dependency declaration, should it include .jar at the end?

i.e. Shouldn't it be like this?

(set-env! :dependencies `[[org.clojure/clojure ~(clojure-version)]
                          [ags799/boot-docker "0.0.0-7-gd5196b9-dirty"]])
