Relx
Relx is a library that assembles Erlang/OTP releases. Given a release specification and a list of directories in which to search for OTP applications it will generate a release output.
It is generally used through the Erlang/OTP build tool rebar3 which provides a cli interface.
Documentation
relx
is a library used by rebar3. Documentation on
using rebar3
for building releases with relx
can be found on
rebar3.org.
Also see Adopting Erlang's Releases chapter.
Building and Testing
Common Test suites can be run with rebar3
:
$ rebar3 compile
$ rebar3 ct
Tests for the start scripts that are generated by relx
are tested with
shelltestrunner.
The script shelltests/run_tests.sh
will clone rebar3
main and build it
with the current relx
as a checkout dependency and then run the tests using
that rebar3
escript:
$ shelltests/run_tests.sh
