Elixir + Dynamo Working Build Setup

This gets the most current and stable Elixir + Dynamo build with all dependencies.

By stable, we mean a stable working pair with all dependencies. It may not be what is labeled stable from those projects, but instead will be as current as possible though it will unlikely be HEAD.

The setup currently uses Chef to manage the installs.

Installation to Your Local System

Install the pre-requisites

OS X:

1. Install Build tools

• XCode
• Command Line Tools
• https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer

Quick Install

curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/clutchanalytics/edwb/master/install.sh | bash -s

Slightly Longer Install

Get the repository:

git clone https://github.com/clutchanalytics/edwb.git

Install

  cd edwb
  # Edit recipe.rb to customize the build
  ./install.sh

Installing on a VM via Vagrant

Install the following if needed:

• Install VirtualBox
  • https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
• Install Vagrant
  • http://downloads.vagrantup.com/tags/v1.2.7
• Install Vagrant Omnibus
  • run vagrant plugin install vagrant-omnibus

Get the repository:

git clone https://github.com/clutchanalytics/edwb.git

Install

  cd edwb
  ./install.sh -vm

This builds the VM, installs and runs Elixir + Dynamo (above) on the VM.

Create first app and test!

If you have not restarted your shell then type . ~/.bash_profile to load the environment info -- this happens automatically when you start new shells.

Now create an app, get deps, and start up the dynamo server:

mix dynamo /tmp/mydynamo
cd /tmp/mydynamo
sed -ibak "s/elixir-lang\/dynamo/clutchanalytics\/dynamo/" mix.exs
mix do deps.get
mix server

Open http://localhost:4000/
