minor(cider): Support jack-in of dependencies by ajoberstar · Pull Request #179 · clojurephant/clojurephant
Editor integrations, such as Cider and Calva (maybe others), rely on being able to inject dependencies when starting nREPL in order to ensure they have all of the capabilities their editors use. Eventually, this could be supported natively by Gradle via [1], but this has been a long-nagging issue with Gradle that made for a poorer user experience than Leiningen, Boot, tools.deps, etc. Since this is just a Gradle property, it can be provided by editors even if the project isn't using Clojurephant (or the right version of Clojurephant), meaning a graceful degradation to the old experience of requiring the user to have put the right deps on the nREPL classpath. [1] gradle/gradle#17251 This fixes Clojurephant's side of #78.
