Library request: integrate with Elixir

[victorbordo]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Elixir has ~17K stars and ~914 contributors. It's growing in popularity for developing web apps, especially as Phoenix continues to improve.

By providing a Elixir library, it'd be very easy for developers using it to track their product usage with PostHog.

Describe the solution you'd like
A library similar for Elixir similar to eg the Ruby one we have in the PostHog list.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Use the PostHog API.

Hey @timgl,

Can I take this issue?

Hey @victorbordo,

Could I trouble you for a review after I'm done? I'm relatively new to Elixir so an extra pair of eyes would be useful in creating an idiomatic library.

[timgl]

@J0 Yes, please go for it!

[J0]

Alright, thanks. I started a repository. I'll be slowly making updates there.

Hey,

I realise that there's already a properly functioning Elixir community library so I'm going to unassign and leave this as is.

Lmk if anything else Elixir related is needed.

K, that's alright! We haven't seen strong demand for an official Elixir library (it's not very mainstream in the end) so we can table this for now.
