bcrypt not working

[TheBlckbird]

I tried to scaffold the auth system, but bcrypt doesn’t work:

• mix phx.gen.auth Accounts User users --live
• mix deps.get
• mix ecto.migrate:

  ==> bcrypt_elixir
  could not compile dependency :bcrypt_elixir, "mix compile" failed. Errors may have been logged above. You can recompile this dependency with "mix deps.compile bcrypt_elixir", update it with "mix deps.update bcrypt_elixir" or clean it with "mix deps.clean bcrypt_elixir"
  ==> phoenix_hoeraktion
  ** (Mix) "make" not found in the path. If you have set the MAKE environment variable, please make sure it is correct.

I am on macOS 14.0 and am using the latest version of Phoenix Framework.

The same happens with argon2

[TheBlckbird]

You have to run this command before executing mix ecto.migrate: apk add build-base

But Bcrypt is still unavailable

I get the error Module Bcrypt not found

@TheBlckbird sorry for the long wait. Work and family took a precedence over open-source the past weeks.

The Docker image does not include the build-base package that provides the make and cc commands to compile the bcrypt_elixir module.

You can run apk add build-base and then retry mix deps.compile to resolve the issue (just tested working in a brand new container / app).

I'll think for bit on whether we should include build-base in the image by default or not.

Thanks, I’ll try that out. I think we should include build-base by default, because a lot of applications have some kind of encryption and authentication.

[nicbet]

Agreed, since the primary concern of the repo is to provide an easy out of the box dev experience, not a production runtime container, and many dependencies need to be compiled, we should have build-base baked in.

I’ll add it to the next release.

[nicbet]

build-base package is now included by default starting from 1.7.5 release.

Thank you!
