Setup

Installation

mix archive.install hex phx_new

Setup

1. Create Boilerplate

mix phx.new react_phoenix

Flags:

• --no-ecto to not have database stuff

1. Create secrets in .env and db secrets

   mix phx.gen.secret

   .env - need to move db config to .config.ex

   export DB_USERNAME="test_user"
   export DB_PASSWORD="LONGTESTPASSWORD"
   export DB_DATABASE="pi_test"
   export DB_HOSTNAME="SOMELONGTHING.oregon-postgres.render.com"
   export SECRET_KEY_BASE="SOMEExTREMELYLONGSECRETKE"

Follow steps it prompts you with, then start with:

mix phx.server 
iex -S mix phx.server #interactive run, `recompile()`, can run all the models like Ss.Accounts.list_users

Phoenix uses webpack or esbuild for asset management and needs npm*

Main work will be in lib

DB

Local: idk. By Postgres default, the username is the default machine name like jfuentes(whoami in bash) and no password ""

AWS: Before running mix ecto.create go into config/dev.ex and change the db connection settings to the AWS one. Creates a database of that name if it doesn't exist
