rebar3_elixir

A plugins for rebar3 to generate a compatible mix.exs file and Elixir bindings.

This plugin has two commands :

• rebar3 elixir generate_mix will generate the Mix file.
• rebar3 elixir generate_lib will generate Elixir bindings.

## Usage

rebar3_elixir is available has a hex or git dependency :

Juste add :

{plugins, [rebar3_elixir]}.

or

{plugins, [
  {rebar3_elixir, {git, "https://github.com/botsunit/rebar3_elixir.git"}}
]}.

in your rebar.config.

Example

% rebar.config
{erl_opts, [debug_info, warn_export_vars, warn_shadow_vars, warn_obsolete_guard]}.

{plugins, [rebar3_elixir]}.
{elixir_version, "~> 1.2"}.

{deps, [
  {lager, "~> 3.2"},
  {erlydtl, ".*", {git, "https://github.com/erlydtl/erlydtl.git", {branch, "master"}}}
]}.

% test.app
{application, test,
 [
  {description, ""},
  {vsn, "0.0.1"},
  {registered, []},
  {modules, []},
  {applications, [
                  kernel,
                  stdlib,
                  syntax_tools,
                  compiler,
                  goldrush,
                  lager
                 ]},
  {mod, {test_app, []}},
  {env, []}
 ]}.

rebar3 elixir generate_mix will generate :

defmodule Test.Mixfile do
  use Mix.Project

  def project do
    [
      app: :test,
      version: "0.0.1",
      elixir: "~> 1.2",
      build_embedded: Mix.env == :prod,
      start_permanent: Mix.env == :prod,
      deps: deps
    ]
  end

  def application do
    [
       applications: [:syntax_tools, :compiler, :goldrush, :lager], 
       env: [],
       mod: {:test_app, []}]
    ]
  end

  defp deps do
    [ 
      {:lager, "~> 3.2"},
      {:erlydtl, ~r/.*/, git: "https://github.com/erlydtl/erlydtl.git", branch: "master"},  
    ]
  end
end

rebar3 elixir generate_lib will generate an Elixir module in lib for each Erlang module. For example :

• From src/example.erl, rebar3_elixir will generate a module lib/Example.ex
• From src/my_example.erl, rebar3_elixir will generate a module lib/My.Example.ex
• From src/other/simple_example.erl, rebar3_elixir will generate a module lib/Other.Simple.Example.ex

You specify the modules for which you want a binding, by using the elixir_bindings option :

{elixir_bindings, [example, simple_example]}. 

In this case, only lib/Example.ex and lib/Other.Simple.Example.ex will be generated.

You can specify a list of function to include or exclude :

{elixir_bindings, [{example, [{only, [fun1, {fun2,2}]}]}]}.

Here, only fun1 (with any arity) and fun2/2 will be availables in the binding lib/Example.ex.

{elixir_bindings, [{example, [{except, [fun1, {fun2,2}]}]}]}.

Here, every function from the module example, except fun1 (with any arity) and fun2/2, will be availables in the binding lib/Example.ex.

You can also add a prefix by using elixir_bindings_prefix :

{elixir_bindings_prefix, hello}.

If you want to force the Elixir module name, you can use the as option :

{elixir_bindings, [{example, [{as, "My.Module.Name"}]}]}.

So rebar3_elixir will generate lib/Hello.Example.ex and lib/Hello.Other.Simple.Example.ex
