Write less boilerplate and reuse more code in your portfolio of Elixir apps

With Uniform, developers maintain multiple Elixir apps inside a Base Project – a "monolith" containing every app. Before deployment, the apps are "ejected" into separate codebases containing only the code needed by each app.

The entire process is automated, so there's much less work required to start a new app or share capabilities between apps.

The complete documentation for Uniform is located here.

Recommended Guides

In order to understand and use this library, we heavily recommend reading the following guides:

• How It Works
• Uniform Manifests
• Dependencies
• Code Transformations

The Setting up a Phoenix project guide is recommended if you're building Phoenix apps.

Usage

mix uniform.eject tweeter

Installation

Consult the Getting Started guide to add Uniform to an Elixir application.

In summary, you'll need to:

1. Add the dep in mix.exs
2. Add a Blueprint module to your project
3. Add configuration to identify the Blueprint module
4. Add uniform.exs manifests to each Ejectable App
5. Fill out the Blueprint so all the necessary files get ejected
