Msplatform Build Process / Linux

Instructions for building the Msplatform Elixir application as a release. This process targets Linux x86_64 systems.

When building Msplatform we assume that we are including ERTS as part of the release.

We largely follow the standard Phoenix “Deploying with Releases” documentation to build a release, modified somewhat to support both the umbrella project structure and our own needs. this process looks like:


mkdir msplatform_linux_release
cd msplatform_linux_release
git clone https://github.com/MuseSystems/musebms.git --branch versions
cd musebms/app_server/platform/msplatform
mix deps.get --only prod
MIX_ENV=prod mix compile
cd apps/msapp_mcp_web
MIX_ENV=prod mix assets.deploy
MIX_ENV=prod mix phx.gen.release
cd ../../
MIX_ENV=prod mix release
cd _build/prod/rel
tar -cvjSf ../../../../../../../msplatform_release.tar.bz2 msplatform
cd ../../../../../../../
