; Use clojure.java.io to read in resources from the classpath (ns rescue.core (:require [clojure.java.io :as io] )) ; Populate the file on the command line: ; echo "Hello Resources!" > resources/hello.txt (def data-file (io/resource "hello.txt" )) (defn -main [] (println (slurp data-file)) ) ; When do "lein run" ; => Hello Resources!
