Groxio OTP and Elixir Training

Groxio training

1 Install these tools, plus Elixir

The tools you will need to install:

• zoom
• git (https://git-scm.com/downloads).
• livebook (https://livebook.dev/#install)
• an editor that you are comfortable with.

You will also need a camera that works with Zoom. We will keep our cameras on throughout the class to improve communication and engagement.

For the development dependencies, you'll need:

• Elixir 1.15, with OTP 26. Make sure it's working: run the command:

[rv_otp_1] ➔ elixir -v
Erlang/OTP 26 [erts-14.2.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:10:10] [ds:10:10:10] [async-threads:1] [jit]

Elixir 1.15.4 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 26)

Verify that observer is working (helpful but optional):

[rv_otp_1] -> iex
iex(1)> :observer.start

You will see a window come up and the :ok return code. Now for Livebook:

[rv_otp_1] -> livebook server
[Livebook] Application running at http://localhost:8080/?token=???

The token will be different on your machine. Don't save this for the last minute! It's a hands on class, and you need time to work out any bugs you might encounter.

2. Clone this repository

1. Fork this repository to your github account.

• Go to https://github.com/groxio-learning/rv_otp_1
• Click the fork button in the upper right corner
• Navigate to your local version (at something like git@github.com:your-github-user/rv_otp_1.git. )
• Copy the clone address to your clipboard. Click the bright green code button, then click the copy-to-clipboard button on the clone page.

2. Clone your local version to your local machine.

• Clone it. REPLACE your-github-account with your github account name:

>  git clone <paste the url>
...clones repo...
cd rv_otp_1

• Verify your remote:

$ git remote -v
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/rv_otp_1.git (fetch)
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/rv_otp_1.git (push)

• If there's no origin, set it. Make sure you replace your-github-user:

rv_otp_1> git remote add origin https://github.com/your-github-user/rv_otp_1.git

• Verify your remote:

$ git remote -v
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/rv_otp_1.git (fetch)
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/rv_otp_1.git (push)

• Set the upstream to the Groxio repo:

rv_otp_1> git remote add upstream https://github.com/groxio-learning/rv_otp_1.git

• Verify the remotes:

> origin  https://github.com/your-user/rv_otp_1.git (fetch)
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/rv_otp_1.git (push)
> upstream  https://github.com/groxio-learning/rv_otp_1.git (fetch)
> upstream  https://github.com/groxio-learning/rv_otp_1.git (push)
