Hello all! My name is Jake, and I work at Hashrocket.

We have been running a daily learning microblog called ‘Today I Learned’ for over a year, and are starting to post a lot about Elixir. Here’s the Elixir channel page:

https://til.hashrocket.com/elixir

I hope to see this content grow as we get more interested and excited about the language. We’re also on Twitter at @hashrockettil— posts with #myelixirstatus indicate Elixir posts.

Thanks for building this resource, and for checking us out!

https://github.com/Diamond/elm_articles has been updated to use Elixir v1.3, Phoenix v1.2, Ecto v2.0, and Elm v0.17.1! Expect to see another post in my series on writing a full site in Elm and Phoenix soon!

Hello, my name is Stephan. I’m a Ruby developer, primarily Ruby on rails, however I’m transitioning to Elixir and phoenix. Since the web isn’t filled with tutorials, blogs and such, of this amazing language and framwork yet, I’ve started blogging tutorials on challenges I’ve encountered.

So far, I’ve written a tutorial on how to write a server-side todo application , and how to send emails. Both with Elixir and Phoenix.

As soon as I’m finished with more tutorials, I will post them here. You can check them out here

I wrote a small application that monitors user’s timesheets in Harvest (http://www.getharvest.com) and politely reminds them if they haven’t logged enough hours for that day.

I wrote about what I learnt so far about pattern matching. What is it, how to use it and some performance test.

Just published phoenix_markdown to hex. Makes Markdown files first class templates in Phoenix. Uses Earmark to render.

This means you can place *.html.md files in your templates directories and use them directly from the controller, or as partials in other templates via render “some_markdown.html”.

Also means the Markdown conversions are compiled. Very fast at runtime.

Create a music server that can be controlled via chat using Mopidy and Hedwig. We’ll leverage Spotify and Icecast as well to allow a distributed team to listen to a shared music stream.

This will use the hedwig bot framework, hedwig_mopidy chat responder, and mopidy API client.

Fixed issue where empty cells were skipped. Empty cells will now be represented as nil. Checkout the change log for a simple example. Update to v1.3.1 to get this fix (hex or github).

I wrote a mix task that helps you monitoring your remote Elixir/ Phoenix app on your local machine.

While Postgres is the default Ecto database type, you can use MySQL databases as well. Beyond that, it is relatively easy to connect to an already existing MySQL database and take advantage of the power of Ecto with it.

In this post we discover how to connect to an already existing MySQL database and even deal with non-standard field types and funky primary keys.

Mix is an equivalent of Rake for running project tasks. But it’s much more than what you came to expect from Rake.

I just published part 2 of a story on writing a full site in Phoenix and Elm! This time, we’re focusing in on just making HTTP GET requests and learning the basics of Tasks and Commands. In future posts we’ll flesh this all out a bit more into a full-functioning API handler!
