Erlang newbie help with active

mamusr opened this issue · comments

I am using n2o for erlang web development and active is included in the rebar.config.

My current process.

Change a source file.
include the active app in the reltool,config.
Generate a release.
Run the web release from the erlang console to see the new changes when i go test on localhost site.
Change the source file again to see new changes reflected in web site. No luck

I must be doing something wrong because active is not working.

For experienced erlang web developers what do you do?

  1. Do you use a script to run the web app and it dependencies through the erlang shell.
  2. Do you need to run a release in order to debug and develop the web app?

I said you to include active into rebar.config not retool.config :-)

You shouldn't use retool. Under releases sync/active will not work without hacks.
You should see n2o_sample inside n2o.

just do git clone http://github.com/5HT/n2o
cd n2o/samples
make
make console

As simple as that.

Thank you Maxim/Namdak for your help. Sorry for bugging you. It took me some time to see the light. I need to teach myself more about how the makefiles work. Thank again and for your erlang contributions.

Sincerely,

Michael Mota
