ex_check 0.15 released with mix audit support
ex_check provides mix check
- one task to efficiently run all code analysis & testing tools in an Elixir project. Born out of đź’ś to Elixir and pragmatism.
In 0.15, mix audit
joins a growing family of curated tools (it’s 11 now!), so that your projects are forever secured against security vulnerabilities both locally and on CI with next to zero extra effort (ex_check
will politely ask to add the package or to opt out of it without erroring out).
If you haven’t already given ex_check
a shot already, just try it - it saves me & my team a ton of time everyday across personal and contract projects in following cases:
- as a full project check after big changes (to run all Elixir & JS tools)
-
as a quick ~10s sanity check before pushing (I usually leave
ex_unit
anddialyzer
to the CI) - as a way to efficiently run all tools in a single CI job (if a tool gets too slow I just skip it and extract to separate job)
