add-libs fails when print-length is set in 1.12-alpha4

Sun, 02 Jul 2023 18:56:53 +0000

In version 1.12.0-alpha4, calling any of the clojure.repl.deps/add-libs related functions will fail when *print-length* is set, ostensibly to a number small enough to abbreviate your project's :deps when printing them.

So to reproduce, create a new project with 10 deps in deps.edn then

(set! *print-length* 5)
(add-libs '{my/lib {:mvn/version "0.1"}}) ;;fails

(set! *print-length* nil)
(add-libs '{my/lib {:mvn/version "0.1"}})  ;;now it works

I believe this is due to this line in clojure.tools.deps.interop

Did TDEPS-187 break add-libs?

TDEPS-187 changed clojure.tools.deps.alpha/calc-basis, which now merges argmaps after {:libs libs} - diff.

I'm running on tools deps at this commit, and I'm unable to add libs.

clojure.tools.deps.alpha.repl/add-libs calls calc-basis with initial-basis as the second argument, which means the :libs in initial basis replace those calculated by calc-basis.

Switching the merge order to:

`clojure
(merge master-edn cp argmaps {:libs libs})``

enables me to add libs to the classpath.

Is this a regression, or am I holding it wrong?
