View Source Generators

Ash comes with multiple generators, packages as mix tasks, to help you generate and make modifications to your applications.

See the documentation for each mix task for more information. What is presented here is merely an overview.

Installer

Ash can be installed into a project using igniter. Some examples of how this can work:

• Install Ash & AshPostgres into your current project

  mix igniter.install ash ash_postgres

• Create a new mix project with Ash & AshPostgres installed

  mix archive.install hex igniter_new
  mix igniter.new my_project --install ash,ash_postgres

• Create a new phoenix project with Ash & AshPostgres installed

  mix igniter.new my_project --install ash,ash_postgres,ash_phoenix --with phx.new

  install hex archives

  The archives have to be installed to use them. This only needs to be done once, until you change elixir versions.

  mix archive.install hex igniter_new
  mix archive.install hex phx_new
