Hydrax
Shared functionality for working with PIDs across a distributed cluster. Acts as a wrapper around Horde, providing a few convenience functions such as helpers for working with two-element registry keys.
Installation
The package can be installed by adding hydrax
to your list of dependencies in mix.exs
:
def deps do
[
{:hydrax, "~> 0.3"},
]
end
Then add either the Registry, Supervisor, or both to your application tree:
defmodule Application do
@moduledoc false
use Application
@impl true
def start(_type, _args) do
children = [
Hydrax.Registry,
Hydrax.Supervisor,
# other children
]
opts = [strategy: :one_for_one, name: Application]
Supervisor.start_link(children, opts)
end
end
The Registry and Supervisor are thin wrappers around Horde.Registry and Horde.DynamicSupervisor. The Horde documentation is the best place to learn how to use these.
