The temporary directory for data storage is often used. However, /tmp dir is not always a good solution. Depending on the configuration, it can be represented differently. Check how you can fix it with simple modification.

I wrote up my experience at Code BEAM in Stockholm this year.

I really enjoyed it :) https://underjord.io/code-beam-sto-2022.html

By default in the test env, Phoenix doesn’t show IO.puts/IO.inspect outputs in the console. Debugging without access to these two functions may be a pain in the neck. Fortunately, there is a simple solution, you can apply in just a few seconds. Check the TIL: https://curiosum.com/til/io-puts-and-inspect-in-exunit-tests

Five Elixir Meetups are behind us! Who were the speakers, how many people attended, what is the idea? https://curiosum.com/blog/elixir-is-taking-over-meetups-curiosum-behind

If you ever tried to use Plug.Conn.read_body/2 and it returned nil, you now know that it can only be used once. If you have :json in your Plug.Parsers, you cannot read the raw body again, because it was already used by the parser. That’s a trick Plug does to save memory as request bodies can be of any size. However there’s a way to cache the raw body when you need it:

These are a few of my favorite things, as they say. I had no voice but it turned out quite artistic. Love to my editor for that. https://youtu.be/Fude1tM3kg0

The 100th episode of Thinking Elixir is spent with José Valim celebrating 10 years of Elixir. We close out our 5-part series talking about the recent 1.13 release, the upcoming 1.14 release and looking into the future and v2.0. We learn that many features were created with Nx in mind but are still broadly helpful to Elixir developers. José gives a 1-minute explanation of how ex_unit works, explains what usually makes it into a point release, and how adding stepped ranges meant changes to many Enum functions and so much more! In addition to Elixir, we talk about his journey with Dashbit and we end up learning how the song “The Final Countdown” by Europe might actually be teaching functional programming and recursion?? A super packed episode!
