# PowerHouse

W.I.P - hence stuff is either broken or not there

### Goal

A basic app for hosting websockets-based games.

### Running this

* Install Erlang and Elixir

* Clone this repo, get dependencies and compile application

        git clone https://github.com/HashNuke/power-house.git power-house

        cd power-house

        mix deps.get

        mix relex.assemble

* To start the app

        iex -S mix

* Visit `http://localhost:8080`

* If you change routes, you'll need to run the following in your console.

        r(PowerHouse) && PowerHouse.reload_routes()

* For any other module changes or new modules, recompile it using `r(YourModule)` or `c("path/to/module.ex")` in the `iex` console itself.

### Usage

* Drop all your static assets in `app/assets`. Say you have `app/assets/sample.png`, it can be accessed on the app at `/assets/sample.png`

* Put anything in `app/views` with a `.dtl` extension and it'll be compiled.

  Suppose you have `app/views/index.dtl`, you'll can render the template using `:app_views.index([])`.

  If you have to pass any variables use something like this `:app_views.index([greeting: 'Hello World'])`

  For views, ErlDTL () is being used. It is an implementation of Django templates in Erlang.

### Notes

I don't know how to deploy using erlang releases yet. I was informed that Elixir doesn't yet have deployment/release mechanisms built in the `mix` tool. Rumour is that it's coming in v1.0. But this works for me now.
