LiveView Kenya, December 2020, class info. Your homework.

1 Install these tools, plus Elixir, plus Phoenix.

The tools you will need to install:

zoom
git (https://git-scm.com/downloads).
an editor that you are comfortable with.
a working PostgreSQL install

For the development dependencies, you'll need:

Elixir 1.11, with OTP 23. Make sure it's working:

run the command:

[clock] ➔ elixir -v
Erlang/OTP 23 [erts-11.0] [source] [64-bit] [smp:12:12] [ds:12:12:10] [async-threads:1] [hipe]

Elixir 1.11.2 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 23)

node.js. Not optional! for Phoenix assets
Phoenix 1.5.6+ (It includes LiveView.)

Is Phoenix working? Make sure you can run this command:

mix phx.new demo --live
(say yes to fetch dependencies and assets)

and make sure you can then create the database:

cd demo
mix ecto.create

Don't save this for the last minute! There are a few dependencies that will give you trouble if you've never done this before and decide to wait.

2. Clone this repository

Fork this repository to your github account.

Go to https://github.com/groxio-learning/kenya_elixir_dec_2020
Click the fork button in the upper right corner
Navigate to your local version (at something like git@github.com:your-github-user/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git. )
Copy the clone address to your clipboard. In the upper right, click clone or download then copy to clipboard

Clone your local version to your local machine.

Clone it. REPLACE your-github-account with your account:

>  git clone <paste the url>
...clones repo...
cd kenya_elixir_dec_2020

Verify your remote:

$ git remote -v
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git (fetch)
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git (push)

If there's no origin, set it. Make sure you replace your-github-user:

kenya_elixir_dec_2020> git remote add origin https://github.com/your-github-user/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git

Verify your remote:

$ git remote -v
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git (fetch)
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git (push)

Set the upstream to the Groxio repo:

kenya_elixir_dec_2020> git remote add upstream https://github.com/groxio-learning/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git

Verify the remotes:

> origin  https://github.com/your-user/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git (fetch)
> origin  https://github.com/your-user/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git (push)
> upstream  https://github.com/groxio-learning/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git (fetch)
> upstream  https://github.com/groxio-learning/kenya_elixir_dec_2020.git (push)

Now check out your setup. Send me a pull request: Edit the file "pull_requests.md" and add your name:

git pull upstream main
Edit pull_requests.md

Bruce Tate
Horasmas B. Dragon

Commit the file and push

> git commit . -m "my commit"

...some happy success message...

> git push origin main

...some happy success message...

Now go to your repo online. Click: "Compare and create pull request"

Your homework is done!
