Exploring the web one Elixir at a time
In the last part of this series Using Ewebmachine to create a link shortener (part 1) we covered setting up the basic application and services.
In this part, we will add in some listing functionality, that will output in a number of formats: HTML, XML, JSON.
As an extension to the examples presented in my previous post: Basic templating with Elixir-Mustache, I am going to look at separating the HTML from the code.
This week I’ll be looking at basic, inline templating using Mustache (Elixir-Mustache) within the context of Ewebmachine by way of an aside to the work that we have been doing on the link shortener as presented in my previous posts.
In a slight change to the previous post, I will look in more detail at Ewebmachine. To help with this I am using the excellent tutorial on Webmachine that is in Seven Web Frameworks in Seven Weeks published by Pragmatic Programmers as a basis.
Thanks for showing an interest in this.
This is not an exhaustive discussion on the ins and outs of setting this up and I do not profess to be an expert. I am also not an expert in Elixir, Erlang or Webmachine, so I might not be able to answer any questions or offer support.
