This Leiningen plugin allows you to run your program.

lein run

If your program expects command-line arguments, the run plugin allows you to provide those as follows.

lein run 8080

In order to use this plugin, you will need to specify a :main class and add leiningen-run to your :dev-dependencies in project.clj, as in the following example from an island-wari web application.

(defproject island-wari "0.1"
  :description "Web application for playing the Island Wari game."
  :main wari
  :dependencies     [[org.clojure/clojure "1.1.0"]
                     [org.clojure/clojure-contrib "1.1.0"]
                     [org.clojars.liebke/compojure "0.3.1-master"]]
  :dev-dependencies [[leiningen-run "0.3"]])

This plugin is available on Clojars.
