Petal Boilerplate

A clean install of the Phoenix 1.7 (RC) along with:

Get up and running

Optionally change your database name in dev.exs.

  1. Setup the project with mix setup
  2. Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phx.server or inside IEx with iex -S mix phx.server
  3. Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.

Phoenix 1.7 generators

The CRUD generators (eg. mix phx.gen.live) will produce code that doesn't quite work. Basically, they will use components defined in core_components.ex that we have renamed due to naming clashes with Petal Components. To fix, simply do a find and replace in the generated code:

Replace `.modal` with `.phx_modal`
Replace `.table` with `.phx_table`
Replace `.button` with `.phx_button`

This should make it work but it'll be using a different style of buttons/tables/modal to Petal Components. To work with Petal Components you will need to replace all buttons/tables/modal with the Petal Component versions.

Petal Pro currently comes with a generator to build CRUD interfaces with Petal Components. You can purchase it here.

Renaming your project

Run mix rename PetalBoilerplate YourNewName to rename your project. You can then remove {:rename_project, "~> 0.1.0", only: :dev} from your mix.exs file.
