Elixirschool: Libraries: Distillery

[SophieDeBenedetto]

Add a section on building a release of your Elixir app using the Distillery library.

Could be something like:

• [ ] What is a release?
• [ ] Getting started/installation
• [ ] Building your release
• [ ] Configuring your release
• [ ] Advanced: custom release tasks with boot hooks + rpc (i.e. how to execute something like a db migrate against your release
• [ ] Further Reading

I like Distillery personally but really just would love to see any content on building OTP releases.

I'll add a lesson on " custom release tasks with boot hooks + rpc (i.e. how to execute something like a db migrate against your release". I wrote a blog post about that recently that I'll more or less re-use. https://www.thegreatcodeadventure.com/run-ecto-migrations-in-production-distillery/
