Erlang Workshop

0. Clone repository

$ git clone https://github.com/michalslaski/erlang-workshop
$ cd erlang-workshop

1. Create module

$ ./rebar create-lib libid=abacus

Edit src/abacus.erl and create 4 functions for arithmetic operations: addition/2, subtraction/2, multiplication/2 and division/2. Save.

$ ./rebar compile
$ erl -pa ebin/
Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.1] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]

Eshell V6.1  (abort with ^G)
1> abacus:addition(2,5).
7

2. Create tests

If you haven't done previous step, start with git checkout 1-create-module.

$ mkdir test

Edit test/abacus_tests.erl starting with

-module(abacus_tests).
-include_lib("eunit/include/eunit.hrl").
-compile(export_all).

Save.

$ ./rebar compile eunit
==> erlang-workshop (compile)
==> erlang-workshop (eunit)
Compiled src/abacus.erl
Compiled test/abacus_tests.erl
  All 4 tests passed.

3. Enable cover reports

If you haven't done previous step, start with git checkout 2-create-tests.

Edit rebar.config and add cover options

{cover_enabled,true}.
{cover_print_enabled,true}.

Save.

$ ./rebar eunit
==> erlang-workshop (eunit)
  All 4 tests passed.
Cover analysis: /Users/michalslaski/dev/erlang-workshop/.eunit/index.html

Code Coverage:
abacus : 100%

Total  : 100%

$ open .eunit/index.html
$ ./rebar doc
$ open doc/index.html

4. Create TCP server

If you haven't done previous step, start with git checkout 3-create-rebar-config.

Edit src/abacus_tcp.erl and use gen_tcp:listen/2 to open a listening TCP socket, gen_tcp:accept/1 to accept client connections and receive {tcp, Socket, Command} -> ... end to receive requests.

$ ./rebar compile
$ erl -pa ebin/
Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.1] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]

Eshell V6.1  (abort with ^G)
1> abacus_tcp:start(1234).


$ telnet localhost 1234
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.

telnet> quit

5. Create gen_server

If you haven't done previous step, start with git checkout 4-create-abacus-tcp.

./rebar create template=simplesrv srvid=abacus_srv

Edit src/abacus_srv.erl and implement a server similar to abacus_tcp.erl, but using the gen_server behaviour.

$ ./rebar compile
$ erl -pa ebin/
Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.1] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]

Eshell V6.1  (abort with ^G)
1> abacus_srv:start_link().


$ telnet localhost 1234
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

6. Create supervisor and application

If you haven't done previous step, start with git checkout 5-create-abacus-gen-server.

$ ./rebar create template=simpleapp appid=abacus

Edit src/abacus_sup.erl and add ?CHILD(abacus_srv, worker) to the supervision child spec. Edit src/abacus.app.src and add {mod, {abacus_app, []}}, set {vsn, "1.0"} and set {modules, []}.

$ ./rebar compile
$ erl -pa ebin/
Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.1] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]

Eshell V6.1  (abort with ^G)
1> application:start(abacus).
2> observer:start().

7. Create release

If you haven't done previous step, start with git checkout 7-create-application.

Edit relx.config and set {release, {abacus, "1.0"}, [abacus]}.

$ ./relx
$ _rel/abacus/bin/abacus
Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.1] [source-d2a4c20] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]
