Setup Erlang Examples

This repository showcases how to use the setup-erlang action in a Github Actions workflow.

For each supported version of Erlang (25.x, 26.x and 27.x), for each supported platforms (Linux, macOS and Windows), and for the Rebar3 and Erlang.mk) build tools, it shows how to build the following types of Erlang projects.

  • Build an OTP application/release
  • Build a NIF-based library

It also helps verify that those projects continue to be "buildable" despite ongoing environment changes.

XXX: Perhaps add "driver-based library" and "escript" projects to the examples.

Repository organization

Find one folder per Erlang project type and build tool.

  • otp-release-rebar3 - How to build OTP release with Rebar3.
  • otp-release-erlang-mk - How to build OTP release with Erlang.mk
  • nif-library-rebar3 - How to build a NIF-based library with Rebar3
  • nif-library-erlang-mk - How to build a NIF-based library with Erlang.mk

They're good starting points if you struggle with how to structure your Erlang projects.

And finally, find Github Actions workflow that will show you how to write your workflows to build those projects (install dependencies, the right commands to execute, etc).
