# After opening a WireGuard connection to your Fly.io network, copy this file
# into the directory for your Elixir application. Run the script to start the
# local Elixir project and cluster it to an application running on Fly.io.

# In order for this to work:
# - Your wireguard connection must be up.
# - When run from a directory with a `fly.toml` file, `flyctl` command is used
#   to access information about the application.
# - Set the ENV `CLUSTER_APP_NAME` to specify a different hosted app name.
# - Set the ENV `RELEASE_COOKIE` to override the Erlang cookie used for
#   clustering. It uses the the value from the deployed app if it is set there.
# - Run the script.

# IMPORTANT:
# ==========
# Fly.io uses an IPv6 network internally for private IPs. The BEAM needs IPv6
# support to be enabled explicitly.
#
# The issue is, if it's enabled globally like in a `.bashrc` file, then setting
# it here essentially flips it OFF. If not set globally, then it should be set
# here. Choose the version that fits your situation.
#
# It's the `--erl "-proto_dist inet6_tcp"` portion.

# export ERL_AFLAGS="-kernel shell_history enabled -proto_dist inet6_tcp"

# Toggles on IPv6 support for the local node being started.
