Unifex
Unifex is a tool for generating interfaces between native C code and Elixir, that:
- provides intuitive and conscise tools for defining native interfaces,
- generates all the boilerplate for you,
- provides useful abstractions over binaries and state,
- makes native code independent from erl_nif or ei library, so the same code is usable either with NIFs or CNodes.
API documentation is available at HexDocs.
Instalation
To install, you need to configure Mix project as follows:
defmodule MyApp.Mixfile do
use Mix.Project
def project do
[
app: :my_app,
compilers: [:unifex, :bundlex] ++ Mix.compilers, # add unifex and bundlex to compilers
...,
deps: deps()
]
end
defp deps() do
[
{:unifex, "~> 0.3.1"} # add unifex to deps
]
end
end
