deep_merge is a ew library to deep (recursive) merge maps and keyword lists and your own structs/types through protocols or you can modify merging behavior through an optional function as an argument.

You can find it on github, hex and hexdocs. I also wrote a small release blog post detailing how the library came to be after trying to get deep_merge into elixir.

This post triggered ElixirStatus’ 1000th tweet. Shortly, we - as a community - will reach 3,000 followers on Twitter alone and ElixirWeekly, our newsletter, is growing double digits as well.

These are amazing times to be an Alchemist :D

I just released v1.1.0 of html_sanitize_ex, which includes a new scrubber. Use HtmlSanitizeEx.markdown_html/1 to sanitize HTML generated by a Markdown parser.

Now with transaction support. Xarango is an Elixir driver for ArangoDB.

ExVCR is an HTTP request/response recorder for Elixir. It supports rapid test-driven development when accessing external web services.

For an Elixir library I authored, the execution time for the test suite reduced by a factor of ten when using ExVCR’s recorded fixture data. From 44 seconds down to 4 seconds.

Last week I gave a lightning talk on Elixir to a local tech meetup. I thought it’d be a good, quick introduction for people to see the power of Elixir and a few of my favorite language features. It turned out to be only 6 minutes long and 7 lines of code.

So you are developing an Elixir/Erlang application and you discovered a use case where you need to use so Java code in your app. This, as many other use cases, is easily donable in BEAM.

To connect our Java code with Elixir/Erlang we’ll use JInterface package. Read more http://nsomar.com/p/1571936b-cc83-4233-998d-802fc5098969/
