Elixir Phoenix Rest API

This project is all generated by phoenix framework. Actually I just spent time removing the static files and configuring the application to run with docker. Which is a good point to the framework because at least to the bootstrap makes everything faster and easier.

Cloning this project:

git clone git@github.com:maxcnunes/elixir-phoenix-rest-api.git rest_api

Development

Running Locally

To start your Phoenix app:

Install dependencies with mix deps.get
Set the env variable DATABASE_URL="ecto://user:password@db/rest_api_dev" (you may change the values)
Create and migrate your database with mix ecto.create && mix ecto.migrate
Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phoenix.server

Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.

Running With Docker

Create and migrate your database with docker-compose run --rm local sh -c "mix ecto.create && mix ecto.migrate
Start Phoenix endpoint with docker-compose run --rm local

Now you can visit <container-ip>:<container-public-port> from your browser. Or in case your are using dockito-proxy api.local.dockito.org.
