Dependents Tree

Writes local apps to "stdio" after ordering them topologically.

Change management app topologically listing local apps residing in a projects directory set by environment variable PROJEX_DIR.

Only projects containing file deps_tree.dot will be considered. To generate the DOT graph file, run mix deps.tree --format dot. Each project's root directory must match the app name it contains. For instance, dir dependents_tree for app :dependents_tree. Does not support umbrella projects.

Allows to update local interdependent apps in a topological order. In other words, if a given app changes, what other dependent apps become outdated and in what order must they be updated themselves.

Usage

To use Dependents Tree locally, run these commands:

• set PROJEX_DIR="<elixir_projects_dir>"
• git clone https://github.com/RaymondLoranger/dependents_tree
• cd dependents_tree
• mix deps.get
• mix escript.build
• mix escript.install

You can now run the application like so:

• deps_tree --help
• deps_tree --all
• deps_tree <some_app>
