Status

Due to time constraints, I no longer have the time to maintain this project. I'm happy to review and merge PR's though.

Consider using https://github.com/metadave/erln8 instead.

What is erln8?

erln8 v2 contains several tools that let a developer set custom versions of Erlang, Rebar, and Rebar3 per directory. This allows you to "set and forget" versions of your tools for a project once.

erln8 v2 ships with 3 binaries:

• erln8 - An Erlang version manager, completely rewritten from the ground up.
• reo - Rebar version manager, uses the same core code that erln8 uses.
• reo3 - Same as reo, but for Rebar3.

Getting started

See the installation and quickstart guide.

FAQ

• Does erln8 support MS Windows?

  • I don't own Windows, but if you want to submit PR's to support it and build precompiled binaries, I'll all for it.

• What language is it written in?

  • D, it's super fast, easy, and it's not C++ or C.

• Why isn't it written in Erlang?

  • chicken and egg, I never assumed you'd have Erlang built to be used by a tool that builds Erlang.

• What does reo mean?

  • Australian slang for "rebar"
