Exploring Graphs with Elixir

Creating the GraphCompute Project

Follow the usual drill for creating the new project GraphCompute:

$ mix new graph_compute --sup

This will generate an app with a supervision tree and an application callback. We’ll be using the GraphCompute.Application module to set up the supervision tree.

You should now have an apps directory that looks like this:

.
├── apps
│    ├── d_graph
│    ├── graph_commons
│    ├── graph_compute
│    ├── native_graph
│    ├── property_graph
│    ├── rdf_graph
│    └── tinker_graph

Now cd into the graph_compute directory:

.
├── README.md
├── lib
│   ├── graph_compute
│   │   └── application.ex
│   └── graph_compute.ex
├── mix.exs
└── test
    ├── graph_compute_test.exs
 └── test_helper.exs ...
