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" ....) When running a repl in the project directory, is there a function like this?
> (project-version) ;=> 0.1.2

Just typing *clojure-version* will do the trick.
You can exit the REPL by typing Ctrl+D (pressing the Ctrl and D keys at the same time).
Create a new Clojure project with Leiningen. Build the project to create an executable JAR file. Execute the JAR file. Execute code in a Clojure REPL.
Leiningen is a modern build system for our Clojure projects. It's also written and configured entirely in Clojure. It works similarly to Maven, giving us a declarative configuration that describes our project, without needing to configure exact steps to be executed.
While you can parse project.clj yourself, this may be annoying. It's also a lot of work. Instead, you can just do:
(System/getProperty "projectname.version") Leiningen project files are just Clojure data :)
(-> "/path/to/project.clj" slurp read-string (nth 2))
