Homepage of the FreeBSD Erlang Team for Erlang, Elixir, rebar, relx, and related stuff.

  • #freebsd-erlang IRC channel (ircs://irc.libera.chat/#freebsd-erlang) is available on the Libera Chat IRC Network.
  • Remove deprecated runtimes in 2021Q4
  • Remove ports directly dependent on erlang- and elixir- languages
  • Update RabbitMQ to the next major release, which requires OTP23 minimum, and introduces support for the JIT
  • Bump the main lang/erlang runtime to OTP24 because JIT is awesome
  • Deprecate library ports
  • Generalize the dependency loading mechanism of devel/rebar3 (or even better databases/leofs) and make it available to all ports.
  • New port: DalmatinerDB (started here)
  • New port: BarrelDB
  • New port: VerneMQ
  • Make a separate erlang-epmd port + rc.d daemon to allow ports to rely on a parent epmd daemon starting with reduced privileges PR213001
  • Add !OTP24
  • Security fixes for rebar
  • Add new language runtime for gleam
  • More than 40 point release updates in the last quarter alone for the Erlang runtimes
  • Make Erlang ports buildable from GitHub sources (remove patching and prebuilt tarballs)
  • Check and commit databases/couchdb2 port PR 218844
  • Make lang/erlang-doc buildable from GitHub sources (was merged into lang/erlang as it requires a full source build anyway)
  • Merge Erlang Corba tools into Erlang 21 and 22, as an option.
  • Install RabbitMQ code in a separate directory, like CouchDB does.
  • Rebar3 insisted on downloading a package index even if all dependencies were already provided. [done, see commit 424103f]
