No reader function for tag dbg with boot

[sooheon]

Calling cider-debug-defun-at-point with a boot connected cider-repl errors out with java.lang.RuntimeException: No reader function for tag dbg. This is a duplicate issue of #1462, just a new issue as per @Malabarba 's request.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Contents of my profile.boot

(set-env!
 :dependencies '[[org.clojure/tools.nrepl "0.2.12"
                  :exclusions [org.clojure/clojure]
                  :scope "test"]
                 [boot-deps "0.1.4" :scope "test"]])

(require '[boot-deps :refer [ancient]]
         'boot.repl)

(swap! boot.repl/*default-dependencies* concat
       '[[cider/cider-nrepl "0.11.0-SNAPSHOT"]
         [refactor-nrepl "2.2.0-SNAPSHOT"]])

(swap! boot.repl/*default-middleware* conj
       'cider.nrepl/cider-middleware
       'refactor-nrepl.middleware/wrap-refactor)

cider-jack-in in a boot project and calling cider-debug-defun-at-point will reproduce.

A quick fix is running (boot.core/load-data-readers!) in your cider-repl, this works for me in emacs 👯

[Malabarba]

Sorry nobody replied before. Indeed the workaround above is the only known solution.

Closing as a duplicate of #1462.

@mitchelkuijpers Do you know how to implement this solution in the context of a lein project?
