Could not compile phoenix based application about rebar_mix HOT 3 CLOSED

First, you can't have deps defined in the relx section.

But sadly what you are trying to do isn't possible at this time. rebar_mix is only able to install mix hex packages, not from git repos.

The issue is rebar3 needs to be able to know all of the transitive dependencies. In the case of a hex package it is able to because it is no different from a rebar3 hex package, the dependencies are in the metadata. When the dep is a git repo this isn't available and rebar3 can not evaluate the mix.exs script, so it has no way of telling what the dependencies of the mix dep are.

My only idea so far is to have a mix command that can output the deps as an Erlang term file which we can then read.

Hm, I suppose there is the possibility of adding a custom parser of the mix.lock file.. But then would require the lock file, and a good bit of work most likely to create a parser for Elixir maps.

You might want to look at https://github.com/Supersonido/rebar3_elixir as an alternative for now.

I see this one uses reading the lock file to make transitive deps possible https://github.com/Supersonido/rebar3_elixir/blob/master/src/rebar3_elixir_utils.erl#L174

Hopefully we can consolidate this into a single plugin.

It's already consolidated!!
