Easy each/map/reduce/map_reduce/filter methods for deeply nested Elixir terms like %{foo: 42, bar: [foo: :bar, baz: 3.14], baz: :foo} and more.

Today I published 7 erlang packages into hex.pm: https://hex.pm/users/cblage They are just forks of the original erlang packages made to build with mix. No functionality lost/changed:

https://hex.pm/packages/async - erlang -> mix

https://hex.pm/packages/cclock - erlang -> mix

https://hex.pm/packages/columbo - erlang -> mix

https://hex.pm/packages/gibreel - erlang -> mix

https://hex.pm/packages/jsondoc - erlang -> mix

https://hex.pm/packages/kill_bill - erlang -> mix

https://hex.pm/packages/narciso - erlang -> mix

I also published a fork of an elixir package that had been abandoned abandoned since 2014 with fixed bugs and misc improvements. Full credit to the original author: https://github.com/qhool/quaff

hex.pm: https://hex.pm/packages/quaff

Documentation work is still work in progress.

I did this because I needed to use these dependencies in prod and all prod deps should come from hex.pm. dev, test, etc it’s fine to use git deps.

Now I need to get actually back to work… :P

We needed a database of security advisories for Elixir packages, but none existed. We’ve created this repo to serve that role, and populated it with all the existing vulnerabilities we’re aware of (thanks to the great work of Griffin Byatt on Sobelow).

All data is 100% public domain, and we hope this will become a useful resource for automated security tools.

In this episode we set up functions to add and remove tags on our various types of content en masse, and create edit forms that use them.

Last episode we created a data model for a CMS that involves multiple types of content (video episodes, articles and resource links) that can all be tagged under a unified system.

Bring Phoenix server-side performance metrics to Chrome’s Developer Tools (and other browsers that support the Server Timing API) via the plug_server_timing package. Production Safe™.

edit: This was an April’s fools joke. However, bunny will remain functional. It’s only implemented as a thing wrapper around benchee

Your favorite benchmarking library benchee has been renamed to bunny - we figured, no better time to announce this courageous name change than Easter Sunday! You can find more reasoning over in this blog post!
