Mate

Customisable Deployment for Elixir / Phoenix

---

Elixir is fun to work with, releasing should be fun too. This project aims to help with that.

NOTE Documentation is one of the next things on my list.

What about edeliver?

It's the inspiration behind this, but I wanted something that is compatible with mix release, something more customisable and a codebase that is better readable. This project aims to be that, but as it is still early if you are looking for something more stable, edeliver might still be the better choice – for now.

Documentation

The documentation for mate can be found on hexdocs.pm/mate.

Installation

Add mate to your dependencies in the mix.exs file, you only need it for :dev as you run it locally from your machine.

def deps do
  [
    {:mate, "~> 0.1.1", only: :dev}
  ]
end

Then you can get the latest dependencies and use mix mate.init to get started!

• $ mix deps.get
• $ mix mate.init

Why is it called Mate?

Naming is hard and I wanted something short. Most deployment software seems to stick to a nautical theme with their naming, so I ended up with mate.
