OpenCompany Common Library

AGPL License Build Status Dependencies Status

Background

Today, power is gained by sharing knowledge, not hoarding it.

-- Dharmesh Shah

Teams struggle to keep everyone on the same page. People are hyper-connected in the moment with chat and email, but it gets noisy as teams grow, and people miss key information. Everyone needs clear and consistent leadership, and the solution is surprisingly simple and effective - great leadership updates that build transparency and alignment.

With that in mind we designed Carrot, a software-as-a-service application powered by the open source OpenCompany platform and a source-available web UI.

With Carrot, important company updates, announcements, stories, and strategic plans create focused, topic-based conversations that keep everyone aligned without interruptions. When information is shared transparently, it inspires trust, new ideas and new levels of stakeholder engagement. Carrot makes it easy for leaders to engage with employees, investors, and customers, creating alignment for everyone.

Transparency expectations are changing. Organizations need to change as well if they are going to attract and retain savvy teams, investors and customers. Just as open source changed the way we build software, transparency changes how we build successful companies with information that is open, interactive, and always accessible. Carrot turns transparency into a competitive advantage.

Overview

The OpenCompany Common Library project provides a few namespaces which are shared among multiple OpenCompany projects.

Local Setup

Prospective users of Carrot should get started by going to Carrot.io. The following local setup is for developers wanting to work on the OpenCompany Common Library.

Most of the dependencies are internal, meaning Leiningen will handle getting them for you. There are a few exceptions:

  • Java - a Java 8+ JRE is needed to run Clojure
  • Leiningen - Leiningen 2.9.1+ is a Clojure build and dependency management tool

Java

Your system may already have Java 8+ installed. You can verify this with:

java -version

If you do not have Java 8+ download it and follow the installation instructions.

An option we recommend is OpenJDK. There are instructions for Linux and Homebrew can be used to install OpenJDK on a Mac with:

brew update && brew cask install adoptopenjdk8

Leiningen

Leiningen is easy to install:

  1. Download the latest lein script from the stable branch.
  2. Place it somewhere that's on your $PATH (env | grep PATH). /usr/local/bin is a good choice if it is on your PATH.
  3. Set it to be executable. chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/lein
  4. Run it: lein This will finish the installation.

Then let Leiningen install the rest of the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/open-company/open-company-api.git
cd open-company-api
lein deps

Usage

To use this library in your other projects, include the following in your dependencies:

Clojars Project

To use local changes to the lib here in other projects in a development situation, build the lib and install it locally with:

lein install

Make sure your lein or boot environment is configured to use the local Maven repository.

Development

To start a REPL for local development on this library, run:

lein repl

Pushing to Clojars

The normal case is for a project to use this library from Clojars. To push a new version to Clojars, first authorize the release by setting your credentials:

export CLOJARS_USER="<your Clojars username>"
export CLOJARS_PASS="<your Clojars password>"

Then build and push the lib:

lein deploy release

You can't have any changed or untracked files in your local repo or you'll get an Assert failed: project repo is not clean error.

Testing

Tests are run in continuous integration of the master and mainline branches on Travis CI:

Build Status

To run the tests locally:

lein test!

To run tests watching for local changes during development:

lein autotest
