W.I.P - hence stuff is either broken or not there

A basic app for hosting websockets-based games.

• Install Erlang and Elixir

• Clone this repo, get dependencies and compile application

    git clone https://github.com/HashNuke/power-house.git power-house
    cd power-house
    mix deps.get
    mix relex.assemble
  

• To start the app

    iex -S mix
  

• Visit http://localhost:8080

• If you change routes, you'll need to run the following in your console.

    r(PowerHouse) && PowerHouse.reload_routes()
  

• For any other module changes or new modules, recompile it using r(YourModule) or c("path/to/module.ex") in the iex console itself.

• Drop all your static assets in app/assets. Say you have app/assets/sample.png, it can be accessed on the app at /assets/sample.png

• Put anything in app/views with a .dtl extension and it'll be compiled.

  Suppose you have app/views/index.dtl, you'll can render the template using :app_views.index([]). If you have to pass any variables use something like this :app_views.index([greeting: 'Hello World'])

  For views, ErlDTL (https://github.com/evanmiller/erlydtl) is being used. It is an implementation of Django templates in Erlang.

I don't know how to deploy using erlang releases yet. I was informed that Elixir doesn't yet have deployment/release mechanisms built in the mix tool. Rumour is that it's coming in v1.0. But this works for me now.
