Phoenix VS ecto

A standard Phoenix app contains a priv/repo/seeds.exs script file, which populates a database when it is run, so that developers can work with a conveniently prepared environment.

There was one in the Phoenix Framework (Elixir) about issuing certificates with an invalid end date: https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix/issues/5737

Interestingly, Azure had this bug some years ago too leading to an outage. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/summary-of-windows-az...

Since you mention Rails, have you seen https://www.phoenixframework.org/

Thus, we set out to build a desktop application using a LiveView from the Phoenix Framework in Elixir. For the uninitiated, a LiveView is a process that receives events, updates its state, and renders updates to a page as diffs. The LiveView programming model is declarative: instead of saying “once event X happens, change Y on the page”, events in LiveView are regular messages which may cause changes to its state.

It seems though like Phoenix is similar like Blazor Server (using web socket), but Phoenix is: SEO friendly (first render is plain html) Light weight, scales well and concurrency is first class Easy to develop (runs a local server so you see live updates) Compiled With auth out of the box https://www.phoenixframework.org/

Sorry to hear this. Phoenix v1.7 changed how it structures files in disk and that broke quite some of the getting started material. However, the guides are always kept up to date, so you can give it a try: https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/overview.html

You can also see the resources on this page listed by year: https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix/blob/main/guides... - the recent launched ones are most likely up to date.

Yes! I love Elixir :) [Phoenix LiveView](https://www.phoenixframework.org/) is really amazing. I feel so fast working in it. I got hooked after watching Chris McCord's ['Build a real-time Twitter clone in 15 minutes'](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZvmYaFkNJI&embeds_referring...), and things have improved a lot since then.

I still work on a lot of Java projects. As of JDK 17 Java has most of "ML the good parts" and has the same scalable, reliable and high-performance threading Java is famous for. JAX-RS provides a Sinatra style framework that makes it easy to write JSON API back ends. JDK 21 is just about to come out as a long term supported version and it will be even better.

I do my side projects in Python with aiohttp and think it is a lot of fun even though people tell me it is suicide (I guess if you block the thread you are in trouble)

I think "Next.js" really wants a node.js backend which has the big advantage that you can share code with the front end and back end. It's basically single-threaded but I know people who are happy with it.

The system I'd most like to try is

which is just great if you want to do stuff with websockets that is more interactive than what most people are doing.

To ruin the party, deterministic UUID generation is exactly what UUID v5 is designed for. And since Ecto does not validate UUIDs against their specs, you might as well use uuid again and do:

To me this looks a lot like ecto https://github.com/elixir-ecto/ecto

Is there a significant difference?

Ecto database driver use-case

When it comes to building microservices, Go has the advantage of being easier to deploy and tighter integration with gRPC. On the other hand, Elixir will provide a more expressive layer to communicate with the database through Ecto.

May I ask why CouchDB though? Is it for the offline support?

Phoenix comes with its own database tool called Ecto[0] which is excellent, and it uses Postgres by default. If you're not intended to leverage CouchDB for offline support you should go Postgres without a second thought.

That said, I'm also curious about how to implement offline support with Phoenix in a nice and trivial way.

The best would be to set aside at least 40 minutes of study a day. Being 20 minutes focused on the core of the language, solving problems and a website that can help you a lot and exercism. Another 20 minutes some of the core frameworks like: Phoenix, Ecto, Enum

This is a testiment to the value and productivity of Phoenix, but the resulting code is just basic CRUD. The views are tied 1:1 with their database-backed Ecto schemas. One thing to note is that Phoenix generates DDD-style contexts. This is unlike Rails, which would produce a typical ActiveRecord sprawl: bloated models directly being accessed and lazily queried across the entire application.

Ecto uses prewalk to count the number of interpolations within a given expression.

I've used my share of data access libraries and patterns (e.g. hibernate, activerecord, ecto, ...). The only time I've been happy is when I use raw SQL for non-dynamic SQL and a lightweight query builder for everything else.

I feel like I always run into some thing that at best isn't intuitive to express/read and at worse, cannot be expressed. If I remember correctly, when I was learning Elixir/Ecto, https://github.com/elixir-ecto/ecto/issues/1616 issue and the lack of lateral join support caused me issues.

Want to create a user?

"insert into users (id, name, status) values ($1, $2, $3)"

Our query builder takes pretty raw SQL fragments:

    q = Query.new()
