|
|
|
+<h3 id="sec4" class="subsection">Purpose</h3><!--SEC END --><p>
|
|
|
+We were trying to make something minimalistic that fits out <a href="https://github.com/synrc">application stack</a>.
|
|
|
+The main idea of mad is to provide clean and simple rebar-like fast dependency manager that
|
|
|
+is able to build several types of packages and provides interface of containered deployments
|
|
|
+to virtualiezed environments.</p>
|
|
|
+<!--TOC subsection id="sec5" Several Types of Packaging-->
|
|
|
+<h3 id="sec5" class="subsection">Several Types of Packaging</h3><!--SEC END --><p>
|
|
|
+The key feature of mad is ability to create single-file bundled web sites.
|
|
|
+This target escript is ready to run on Windows, Linux and Mac.</p>
|
|
|
+<!--TOC subsection id="sec6" Deployment Options-->
|
|
|
+<h3 id="sec6" class="subsection">Deployment Options</h3><!--SEC END --><p>
|
|
|
+As a deploy tool mad is also supposed to launch, start, stop and manage containers, locally or remote.
|
|
|
+You can make containers from different type of packages, like making runc container with beam release.</p>
|
|
|
+<!--TOC subsection id="sec7" OTP Compliant-->
|
|
|
+<h3 id="sec7" class="subsection">OTP Compliant</h3><!--SEC END --><p>
|
|
|
+Mad supports ERTS boot files generation with systools and erlang application format used by OTP.
|
|
|
+This is the main format of application repository. Also boot files are suported on both LING and BEAM.</p>

|
|
|
+<!--TOC subsection id="sec9" History-->
|
|
|
+<h3 id="sec9" class="subsection">History</h3><!--SEC END --><p>We came to conclusion that no matter how perfect your libraries are,
|
|
|
+the comfort and ease come mostly from developing tools.
|
|
|
+Everything got started when <a href="https://github.com/proger">Vladimir Kirillov</a> decided to
|
|
|
+replace Rusty’s sync beam reloader. As you know sync uses
|
|
|
+filesystem polling which is neither energy-efficient nor elegant. Also
|
|
|
+sync is only able to recompile separate modules while
|
|
|
+common use-case in N2O is to recompile DTL templates
|
|
|
+and LESS/SCSS stylesheets. That is why we need to recompile
|
|
|
+the whole project. That’s the story how <a href="https://github.com/synrc/active">active</a> emerged.
|
|
|
+Under the hood active is a client subscriber
|
|
|
+of <a href="https://github.com/synrc/fs">fs</a> library, native filesystem listener for Linux, Windows and Mac.</p><p>De-facto standard in Erlang world is rebar.
|
|
|
+We love rebar interface despite its implementation.
|
|
|
+First we plugged rebar into active and then decided to drop its support,
|
|
|
+it was slow, especially in cold recompilation.
|
|
|
+It was designed to be a stand-alone tool, so it has some
|
|
|
+glitches while using as embedded library.
|
|
|
+Later we switched to Makefile-based build tool <a href="https://github.com/synrc/otp.mk">otp.mk</a>.</p><p>The idea to build rebar replacement was up in the air for a long time.
|
|
|
+The best minimal approach was picked up by <a href="https://github.com/s1n4">Sina Samavati</a>,
|
|
|
+who implemented the first prototype called ’mad’. Initially mad
|
|
|
+was able to compile DTL templates, YECC files, escript (like
|
|
|
+bundled in gproc), also it had support for caching with side-effects.
|
|
|
+In a month I forked mad and took over the development under the same name.</p><div class="center">Listing 1: Example of building N2O sample</div><p><br>

|
|
|
+I realized compiling applications as fast as possible with it could be a fascinating work as well.
