Mashup Elixir Practices
Here are our best practices when it comes to Elixir.
Engineering
Our engineering is underpinned by principles that celebrate both the integrity of code and the ambition to innovate. This manifesto champions excellence, advocates for the adoption of cutting-edge technologies, and fosters an environment of continuous intellectual growth.

Pattern matching
Prefer to pattern match rather than use if conditionals.
def hashpassword(%{
changes: { password: password },
valid?: true
} = changeset) do
# hash the password and add it to the changeset
end
def hashpassword(%{
changes: { password: password },
valid?: false
} = changeset) do
# add error to changeset because it is not valid
end
def hashpassword(changeset), do: changeset*
Prefer GenServer over Agents
Avoid using Agents. Use GenServer instead, since Agent is simply a thin wrapper around GenServer.
Pipe operator
Prefer to only pipe functions when chaining 2 functions or more.
# Avoid: this can easily be written without pipnig
some_value
|> some_function()
# Good
some_function(some_value)
# Also good
some_value
|> some_function()
|> some_other_function()
Linting
Our preferred code health and formatting checker is Credo, used along with the Built in Format Checker. These are integrated to our CI Pipeline.
mix credo --strict
mix format --check-formatted
