defmodule Application do
  @moduledoc """
  A module for working with applications and defining application callbacks.

  Applications are the idiomatic way to package software in Erlang/OTP. To get
  the idea, they are similar to the "library" concept common in other
  programming languages, but with some additional characteristics.

  An application is a component implementing some specific functionality, with a
  standardized directory structure, configuration, and life cycle. Applications
  are *loaded*, *started*, and *stopped*. Each application also has its own
  environment, which provides a unified API for configuring each application.

  Developers typically interact with the application environment and its
  callback module. Therefore those will be the topics we will cover first
  before jumping into details about the application resource file and life-cycle.

  ## The application environment

  Each application has its own environment. The environment is a keyword list
  that maps atoms to terms. Note that this environment is unrelated to the
  operating system environment.

  By default, the environment of an application is an empty list. In a Mix
  project's `mix.exs` file, you can set the `:env` key in `application/0`:

      def application do
        [env: [db_host: "localhost"]]
      end

  Now, in your application, you can read this environment by using functions
  such as `fetch_env!/2` and friends:

      defmodule MyApp.DBClient do
        def start_link() do
          SomeLib.DBClient.start_link(host: db_host())
        end

        defp db_host do
          Application.fetch_env!(:my_app, :db_host)
        end
      end

  In Mix projects, the environment of the application and its dependencies can
  be overridden via the `config/config.exs` and `config/runtime.exs` files. The
  former is loaded at build-time, before your code compiles, and the latter at
  runtime, just before your app starts. For example, someone using your application
  can override its `:db_host` environment variable as follows:

      import Config
      config :my_app, :db_host, "db.local"

  See the "Configuration" section in the `Mix` module for more information.
  You can also change the application environment dynamically by using functions
  such as `put_env/3` and `delete_env/2`.

  > #### Environment in libraries {: .tip}
  >
  > The config files `config/config.exs` and `config/runtime.exs`
  > are rarely used by libraries. Libraries typically define their environment
  > in the `application/0` function of their `mix.exs`. Configuration files

  > #### Reading the environment of other applications {: .warning}

  > Each application is responsible for its own environment. Do not
  > use the functions in this module for directly accessing or modifying
  > the environment of other applications. Whenever you change the application
  > environment, Elixir's build tool will only recompile the files that
  > belong to that application. So if you read the application environment
  > of another application, there is a chance you will be depending on
  > outdated configuration, as your file won't be recompiled as it changes.

  ## Compile-time environment

  In the previous example, we read the application environment at runtime:

      defmodule MyApp.DBClient do
        def start_link() do
          SomeLib.DBClient.start_link(host: db_host())
        end

        defp db_host do
          Application.fetch_env!(:my_app, :db_host)
        end
      end

  In other words, the environment key `:db_host` for application `:my_app`
  will only be read when `MyApp.DBClient` effectively starts. While reading
  the application environment at runtime is the preferred approach, in some
  rare occasions you may want to use the application environment to configure
  the compilation of a certain project. However, if you try to access
  `Application.fetch_env!/2` outside of a function:

      defmodule MyApp.DBClient do
        @db_host Application.fetch_env!(:my_app, :db_host)

        def start_link() do
          SomeLib.DBClient.start_link(host: @db_host)
        end
      end

  You might see warnings and errors:

      warning: Application.fetch_env!/2 is discouraged in the module body,
      use Application.compile_env/3 instead
        iex:3: MyApp.DBClient

      ** (ArgumentError) could not fetch application environment :db_host
      for application :my_app because the application was not loaded nor
      configured

  This happens because, when defining modules, the application environment
  is not yet available. Luckily, the warning tells us how to solve this
  issue, by using `Application.compile_env/3` instead:

      defmodule MyApp.DBClient do
        @db_host Application.compile_env(:my_app, :db_host, "db.local")

        def start_link() do
          SomeLib.DBClient.start_link(host: @db_host)
        end
      end

  The difference here is that `compile_env` expects the default value to be
  given as an argument, instead of using the `def application` function of
  your `mix.exs`. Furthermore, by using `compile_env/3`, tools like Mix will
  store the values used during compilation and compare the compilation values
  with the runtime values whenever your system starts, raising an error in
  case they differ.

  In any case, compile-time environments should be avoided. Whenever possible,
  reading the application environment at runtime should be the first choice.

  ## The application callback module

  Applications can be loaded, started, and stopped. Generally, build tools
  like Mix take care of starting an application and all of its dependencies
  for you, but you can also do it manually by calling:

      {:ok, _} = Application.ensure_all_started(:some_app)

  When an application starts, developers may configure a callback module
  that executes custom code. Developers use this callback to start the
  application supervision tree.

  The first step to do so is to add a `:mod` key to the `application/0`
  definition in your `mix.exs` file. It expects a tuple, with the application
  callback module and start argument (commonly an empty list):

      def application do
        [mod: {MyApp, []}]
      end

  The `MyApp` module given to `:mod` needs to implement the `Application` behaviour.
  This can be done by putting `use Application` in that module and implementing the
  `c:start/2` callback, for example:

      defmodule MyApp do
        use Application

        def start(_type, _args) do
          children = []
          Supervisor.start_link(children, strategy: :one_for_one)
        end
      end

  > #### `use Application` {: .info}
  >
  > When you `use Application`, the `Application` module will
  > set `@behaviour Application` and define an overridable
  > definition for the `c:stop/1` function, which is required
  > by Erlang/OTP.

  The `c:start/2` callback has to spawn and link a supervisor and return `{:ok,
  pid}` or `{:ok, pid, state}`, where `pid` is the PID of the supervisor, and
  `state` is an optional application state. `args` is the second element of the
  tuple given to the `:mod` option.

  The `type` argument passed to `c:start/2` is usually `:normal` unless in a
  distributed setup where application takeovers and failovers are configured.
  Distributed applications are beyond the scope of this documentation.

  When an application is shutting down, its `c:stop/1` callback is called after
  the supervision tree has been stopped by the runtime. This callback allows the
  application to do any final cleanup. The argument is the state returned by
  `c:start/2`, if it did, or `[]` otherwise. The return value of `c:stop/1` is
  ignored.

  By using `Application`, modules get a default implementation of `c:stop/1`
  that ignores its argument and returns `:ok`, but it can be overridden.

  Application callback modules may also implement the optional callback
  `c:prep_stop/1`. If present, `c:prep_stop/1` is invoked before the supervision
  tree is terminated. Its argument is the state returned by `c:start/2`, if it did,
  or `[]` otherwise, and its return value is passed to `c:stop/1`.

  ## The application resource file

  In the sections above, we have configured an application in the
  `application/0` section of the `mix.exs` file. Ultimately, Mix will use
  this configuration to create an [*application resource
  file*](https://www.erlang.org/doc/man/application.html), which is a file called
  `APP_NAME.app`. For example, the application resource file of the OTP
  application `ex_unit` is called `ex_unit.app`.

  You can learn more about the generation of application resource files in
  the documentation of `Mix.Tasks.Compile.App`, available as well by running
  `mix help compile.app`.

  ## The application life cycle

  ### Loading applications

  Applications are *loaded*, which means that the runtime finds and processes
  their resource files:

      Application.load(:ex_unit)
      #=> :ok

  When an application is loaded, the environment specified in its resource file
  is merged with any overrides from config files.

  Loading an application *does not* load its modules.

  In practice, you rarely load applications by hand because that is part of the
  start process, explained next.

  ### Starting applications

  Applications are also *started*:

      Application.start(:ex_unit)
      #=> :ok

  Once your application is compiled, running your system is a matter of starting
  your current application and its dependencies. Differently from other languages,
  Elixir does not have a `main` procedure that is responsible for starting your
  system. Instead, you start one or more applications, each with their own
  initialization and termination logic.

  When an application is started, the `Application.load/1` is automatically
  invoked if it hasn't been done yet. Then, it checks if the dependencies listed
  in the `applications` key of the resource file are already started. Having at
  least one dependency not started is an error condition. Functions like
  `ensure_all_started/1` takes care of starting an application and all of its
  dependencies for you.

  If the application does not have a callback module configured, starting is
  done at this point. Otherwise, its `c:start/2` callback is invoked. The PID of
  the top-level supervisor returned by this function is stored by the runtime
  for later use, and the returned application state is saved too, if any.

  ### Stopping applications

  Started applications are, finally, *stopped*:

      Application.stop(:ex_unit)
      #=> :ok

  Stopping an application without a callback module is defined, but except for
  some system tracing, it is in practice a no-op.

  Stopping an application with a callback module has three steps:

    1. If present, invoke the optional callback `c:prep_stop/1`.
    2. Terminate the top-level supervisor.
    3. Invoke the required callback `c:stop/1`.

  The arguments passed to the callbacks are related to the state optionally
  returned by `c:start/2`, and are documented in the section about the callback
  module above.

  It is important to highlight that step 2 is a blocking one. Termination of a
  supervisor triggers a recursive chain of children terminations, therefore
  orderly shutting down all descendant processes. The `c:stop/1` callback is
  invoked only after termination of the whole supervision tree.

  Shutting down a live system cleanly can be done by calling `System.stop/1`. It
  will shut down every application in the opposite order they had been started.

  By default, a SIGTERM from the operating system will automatically translate to
  `System.stop/0`. You can also have more explicit control over operating system
  signals via the `:os.set_signal/2` function.

  ## Tooling

  The Mix build tool automates most of the application management tasks. For example,
  `mix test` automatically starts your application dependencies and your application
  itself before your test runs. `mix run --no-halt` boots your current project and
  can be used to start a long running system. See `mix help run`.

  Developers can also use `mix release` to build **releases**. Releases are able to
  package all of your source code as well as the Erlang VM into a single directory.
  Releases also give you explicit control over how each application is started and in
  which order. They also provide a more streamlined mechanism for starting and
  stopping systems, debugging, logging, as well as system monitoring.

  Finally, Elixir provides tools such as escripts and archives, which are
  different mechanisms for packaging your application. Those are typically used
  when tools must be shared between developers and not as deployment options.
  See `mix help archive.build` and `mix help escript.build` for more detail.

  @doc """
  Called when an application is started.

  This function is called when an application is started using
  `Application.start/2` (and functions on top of that, such as
  `Application.ensure_started/2`). This function should start the top-level
  process of the application (which should be the top supervisor of the
  application's supervision tree if the application follows the OTP design
  principles around supervision).

  `start_type` defines how the application is started:

    * `:normal` - used if the startup is a normal startup or if the application
      is distributed and is started on the current node because of a failover
      from another node and the application specification key `:start_phases`
      is `:undefined`.
    * `{:takeover, node}` - used if the application is distributed and is
      started on the current node because of a failover on the node `node`.
    * `{:failover, node}` - used if the application is distributed and is
      started on the current node because of a failover on node `node`, and the
      application specification key `:start_phases` is not `:undefined`.

  `start_args` are the arguments passed to the application in the `:mod`
  specification key (for example, `mod: {MyApp, [:my_args]}`).

  This function should either return `{:ok, pid}` or `{:ok, pid, state}` if
  startup is successful. `pid` should be the PID of the top supervisor. `state`
  can be an arbitrary term, and if omitted will default to `[]`; if the
  application is later stopped, `state` is passed to the `stop/1` callback (see
  the documentation for the `c:stop/1` callback for more information).

  `use Application` provides no default implementation for the `start/2`
  callback.

  Called after an application has been stopped.

  This function is called after an application has been stopped, i.e., after its

  value of this callback is ignored.

  `state` is the state returned by `c:start/2`, if it did, or `[]` otherwise.

  Reads the application environment at compilation time.

  Similar to `get_env/3`, except it must be used to read values
  at compile time. This allows Elixir to track when configuration
  values change between compile time and runtime.

  The first argument is the application name. The second argument
  `key_or_path` is either an atom key or a path to traverse in
  search of the configuration, starting with an atom key.

  For example, imagine the following configuration:

      config :my_app, :key, [foo: [bar: :baz]]

  We can access it during compile time as:

  ## Examples

  `get_env/3` is commonly used to read the configuration of your OTP applications.
  Since Mix configurations are commonly used to configure applications, we will use
  this as a point of illustration.

  Consider a new application `:my_app`. `:my_app` contains a database engine which
  supports a pool of databases. The database engine needs to know the configuration for
  each of those databases, and that configuration is supplied by key-value pairs in
  environment of `:my_app`.

      config :my_app, Databases.RepoOne,
        # A database configuration
        ip: "localhost",

  Our database engine used by `:my_app` needs to know what databases exist, and
  what the database configurations are. The database engine can make a call to
  `Application.get_env(:my_app, :my_app_databases, [])` to retrieve the list of
  databases (specified by module names).

  The engine can then traverse each repository in the list and call
  `Application.get_env(:my_app, Databases.RepoOne)` and so forth to retrieve the
  configuration of each one. In this case, each configuration will be a keyword
  list, so you can use the functions in the `Keyword` module or even the `Access`
  module to traverse it, for example:

      config = Application.get_env(:my_app, Databases.RepoOne)
      config[:ip]
