Hi Josh, I would opt for using Tomcat 7 Pool API - http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/jdbc-pool.html
The following code wraps the pool api and provides reading a config file (ns foo (:require [clojure.java.io :as io]) (:import [java.io PushbackReader]) (:gen-class)) (defn conf [file] "Reads a config file containing the connection params (url, driver)" (binding [*read-eval* false] (with-open [r (io/reader file)] (read (PushbackReader. r))))) (defn datasource [file] "creates a pooled data source" (let [config (conf file) ds (new org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.DataSource) pp (new org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.PoolProperties)] (do (.setDriverClassName pp (:classname config)) (.setUrl pp (:subname config)) (.setUsername pp (:user config)) (.setPassword pp (:password config)) (.setTestOnBorrow pp true) (.setValidationQuery pp "SELECT 1") (.setMaxActive pp 5) (.setInitialSize pp 1) (.setMaxWait pp 10000) (.setPoolProperties ds pp) (identity ds)))) create a file dbconnection.ini with you jdbc connection params as per the following example (uses derby in-memory db) { :classname "org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver" :subprotocol "memory" :subname "jdbc:derby:memory:myDB;create=true" :user "" :password "" } now you can load the config and create a pooled connection as wished (def ds (datasource (clojure.java.io/as-file "db.properties"))) you can obtain a connection using {:datasource ds} Cheers Christian Am Freitag, 13.
