Deploy recompiled binaries with Elixir script. Runs precompiled_deploy.exs in the current project.

Configuration

This compiler can be configured through the return value of the project/0 function in mix.exs; for example:

def project() do
  [
    # ...
    compilers: [:elixir_precompiled_deployer] ++ Mix.compilers,
    # ...
  ]
end

defp deps do
  [
    # ...
    {:elixir_precompiled_deployer, "~> 0.1", runtime: false},
    # ...
  ]
end

The following options are available:

• :precompiled_deploy_script - Path to the precompiled_deploy.exs script.

compilation-artifacts-and-working-with-priv-directories

Compilation artifacts and working with priv directories

For most if not all cases, this deployer expects to download precompiled artifacts and put them into the priv directory. This is to:

• avoid compiling non-elixir/erlang code with an external compiler
• save the time from compiling large external projects

Another reason to use this project is that writing deploy code in mix.exs that copies precompiled binaries to the priv directory does not work. Copied directories and files will be removed.
