Unable to compile gleam_otp in a Phoenix app
MattCheely opened this issue · comments
When incorporating gleam_otp into a Phoenix application, the library fails to compile. This isn't a big deal for me, as I have a workaround for now, and it's for a personal side project that currently only runs on my dev machine.

** (Mix) Could not compile dependency :gleam_otp, "/home/matt/.mix/rebar3 bare compile --paths /home/matt/projects/beam_ci/_build/dev/lib/*/ebin" command failed. You can recompile this dependency with "mix deps.compile gleam_otp", update it with "mix deps.update gleam_otp" or clean it with "mix deps.clean gleam_otp"
Other Notes
This happens when building with both gleam_compile and mix_gleam
Workaround
I've worked around this by copying gleam.toml from my local checkout of gleam_otp into the deps/gleam_otp folder and running rebar3 compile there. Once it's compile once, everything works.
It seems that header files are handled differently with mix than with rebar3. The build stuff is currently being rewritten so this should be fixed soon.
This also happens for me when running rebar3 compile in the test_project in https://github.com/jeffkreeftmeijer/shine, which is not an Elixir project. It’s resolved if I remove shine from the project_plugins in https://github.com/jeffkreeftmeijer/shine/blob/main/test_project/rebar.config#L8.
The workaround worked for me when I copied gleam.toml into test_project/_build/default/plugins/gleam_otp/ and then ran rebar3 compile, so I’m not blocked on this either. Thanks for mentioning that! 👍
As we've remake the Mix plugin I'm going to close this as being outdated. If you have further issues please open a new ticket, thank you
