This is a sample project for using precompiled NIFs with Rustler.
In order to use it, you either set the RUSTLER_PRECOMPILATION_EXAMPLE_BUILD env var
to force compilation, or you first run the following mix task:
mix rustler_precompiled.download RustlerPrecompilationExample.Native --only-local
This is going to save the checksum file locally, which is required for the project to load the NIF from the internet.
After that, enter the console with iex -S mix and test the add/2 function:
RustlerPrecompilationExample.Native.add(2, 2)The GitHub Action responsible for building the NIFs can be found at .github/workflows/release.yml.
For further details check the RustlerPrecompiled project.
