Using with Phoenix

• In your mix.exs, add Elixirscript to you deps

  •  defp deps do
    [
     #other deps
     {:elixir_script, "~> 0.22.0"}
     ]
    end
    

• In your mix.exs, update the compilers key in your project config
  • compilers: [:phoenix, :gettext, :elixir_script] ++ Mix.compilers
• Also, add the elixir_script key
  • elixir_script: [ input: "web/static/exjs", output: "web/static/js"]]
• In config/dev.exs, update the watchers config to add elixirscript.watch
  • watchers: [node: ["node_modules/brunch/bin/brunch", "watch", "--stdin"], mix: ["elixirscript.watch"]]
• Create the folder web/static/exjs
  • mkdir web/static/exjs

Now whenever you are running the server in development mode, your exjs files in web/static/exjs will be compiled whenever there is a change. The compiled output will end up in web/static/js. From there, Brunch will compile the JavaScript as usual
