Question about REPL and evaluating Babashka with deps

[helibom]

I'm trying to discern what the support is for evaluating function calls from dependency libraries in Babashka with Conjure.

I've been following the quick start guides for Babashka and Conjure (Babashka), and my experience is that expressions and functions within the the local namespace evaluate just fine, but If I try to evaluate a library function like m/index-by in the following file.

; main.clj
(ns main
  (:require [medley.core :as m]))

(defn -main [& _args]
  (prn (m/index-by :id [{:id 1} {:id 2}])))

(-main)

I get this error message from the REPL

; (err) clojure.lang.ExceptionInfo: Could not resolve symbol: m/index-by main /home/helibom/dev/bb-demo/main.clj:1:1

Running clojure-lsp diagnostics results in "No diagnostics found!"
and running the script with bb main.clj yields the expected output {1 {:id 1}, 2 {:id 2}}.

My question:
Is it a known constraint that Conjure cannot fully evaluate Babashka code with deps, or is there something wrong with my setup?

Haven't had time to look into this just yet, but no I can't think of any reason why babashka would work differently in and outside of conjure. Conjure just runs babashka as a subprocess of Neovim in your current working directory. No other changes are made, it's as if we just run bb with an argument to enable an nREPL server. Maybe those default nREPL server options prevent bb from reading it's config to load dependencies for some reason? Or is your Neovim CWD in your home directory when you open the file? That could cause this issue.

Yo, I'm so sorry for wasting your time. I'm a total Clojure beginner and I didn't realize that of course I have to evaluate the namespace and dependency import before those things are available. How embarassing... 🙈

Regardless, thank you so much for your quick reply, @Olical.
Very appreaciative of this Neovim plugin and I'm sure it will be a joyful tool in my Clojure journey!

Not a problem or a waste of time! Glad it worked out for you! :D
