I am experiencing something very peculiar while attempting to use incanter. In my lein project.clj file I set up dependencies for -datasets and -stats (and core, etc.), then do 'lein deps', which reports that these jars are not found in maven or clojar repos. When I look in ~/.m2/repositories/incanter there are folders for 1.5.4 datasets & stats but they contain no jars. All the other incanter packages have 1.5.4 jars and the older versions such as 1.4.1. Hopefully someone can shed light on these missing items.

  • can you show excerpt from your `project.clj`? – Alex Ott Jan 23 '14 at 18:06
  • This is what I have. :dependencies [ [org.clojure/clojure "1.5.1"] [org.clojure/math.combinatorics "0.0.3"] [incanter/incanter "1.5.4"] [incanter/incanter-core "1.5.4"] [incanter/incanter-charts "1.5.4"] [incanter/incanter-io "1.5.4"] [incanter/incanter-stats "1.5.4"] [incanter/incanter-datasets "1.5.4"] :main genetics1.core – Brian Jan 23 '14 at 19:18
  • btw, if you're using `[incanter/incanter "1.5.4"]` as dependency, then you don't need to specify any other incanter's dependencies - they are already included into it... – Alex Ott Jan 24 '14 at 07:23

there is no separate incanter-stats & incanter-datasets modules. The namespace incanter.stats is in the incanter-core package, while incanter.datasets is in the incanter.io package.

Full list of modules you can find in the modules directory on the github, or in my presentation about Incanter.

You need to add following to your project.clj:

:dependencies [[incanter/incanter-core "1.5.4"] 
               [incanter/incanter-io "1.5.4"]
              ...]

and use following in your ns declaration:

(:use [incanter core io stats datasets]))

P.S. I think, that main source of confusion is separation of namespaces (incanter.core, incanter.io, etc.) into packages (modules) that are distributed via clojar...

  • Thank you Alex. Does this mean that in my clojure code I can change this: (:use [incanter core io stats datasets]) to just this: (:use [incanter core io])? – Brian Jan 24 '14 at 05:45
  • I've edited the answer to include the snippets for project.clj & namespace declaration... – Alex Ott Jan 24 '14 at 07:17
  • Again thank you for a clear explanation. I unconsciously assumed the namespaces and the clojar package structure would be the same. – Brian Jan 24 '14 at 10:39
  • the primary reason for separation was to minimize dependencies - some people want only stats, etc. and don't want to get charts, mongodb, etc. – Alex Ott Jan 24 '14 at 15:52
