Bytebinder

A sandbox for learning Elixir / Phoenix

Operations

Local:

• Run mix setup to install and setup dependencies
• Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phx.server or inside IEx with iex -S mix phx.server

Dev Server:

• Run mix phx.gen.release
• Run flyctl deploy

Questions

The standard resource set includes:

• GET /resource => :index
• GET /resource/new => :new
• POST /resource => :create
• GET /resource/:id => :show
• GET /resource/:id/edit => :edit
• PATCH /resource/:id => :update
• PUT /resource/:id => :update
• DELETE /resource/:id => :delete

:new => :create and :edit => update make obvious pairs.

1. Where is ??? => :delete, since that would likely include the delete confirmation?
2. Where is the PATCH / PUT determination made? (.form appears to use PUT)

many-to-many doesn't appear to have a straight-forward update / insert mechanism. 3. What is the right approach for connecting tables?
