Getting the version of the current clojure project in the repl

Question

Is it possible to grab the project information within the clojure repl?

For example, if there was a project defined:

(defproject blahproject \"0.1.2\         


        

Answer 1

Add the below code to the end of project.clj:

(def project (assoc-in project [:repl-options :init]
                       `(~'def ~'project-version ~(project :version))))

Now you will have a var called project-version in the initial namespace for the repl.
