Include other Nova applications

You can include other nova applications as part of your release. Just include them as regular rebar3-deps and bootstrap them by telling your application to include them.

If you would include the application nova_admin into your app testapp, your sys.config could look something like this:

{nova_applications, [
    #{name => "testapp",
      routes_file => "priv/testapp.routes.erl"},
    #{name => "nova_admin",
      prefix => "/admin"}
    ]}.

This tells nova that you want to include the nova_admin application and prefix all of its paths with /admin.

Key	Definition	Default value
name	Name of the app	required

      routes_file => "priv/myapp.routes.erl",

      security => {my_sec_handler, sec_function}
    }
