exdm - Elixir Deployment Manager

exdm automates deployment of Elixir releases.

It provides a set of mix tasks to deploy applications, check their status and start and stop them.

Releases are pushed to remote servers and applications can be upgraded.

exdm allows the definition of multiple stages for your application, e.g. production, staging and ci.

Usage

Build the release (i.e. with distillery):

MIX_ENV=prod mix release

Deploy:

mix deployment.deploy production

Configuration

Add exdm to your deps in mix.exs:

defp deps do
  [{:exdm, "~> 0.0.3"}]
end

Add a section to your application config:

config :exdm, :production,
  host: "example.com",
  user: "deploy",
  application_path: "/srv/my_app"

Other tasks

mix deployment.local              # prints the latest release version built locally
mix deployment.remote {stage}     # prints the version running on the remote host
mix deployment.can_deploy {stage} # are we ready to deploy?
mix deployment.start {stage}      # start the application
mix deployment.stop {stage}       # stop the application
mix deployment.is_running {stage} # prints yes/no/error
