Friend is a module… it should contains functions You can call.
In your code…
it could be
And then You can call it like this
Why would You expect your code in the module to run? or when?

As @kokolegorille has already pointed out, you shouldn’t run db commands outside of functions, since then they would be executed during compilation before the database connection process is started.
Put those commands in a function, and execute the function when you need to. It can be in response to a controller action or whatever else.
Also maybe read through the official elixir guide to get a better understanding of how elixir modules and functions work.

Then you can run this function as a
Taskaftersupervisor(Repo, [])in your application.Replace https://github.com/dersar00/friends/blob/master/lib/friends/application.ex with
Don’t forget to delete https://github.com/dersar00/friends/blob/master/lib/friends.ex#L10
You would call your function like
Friends.save(data)from a handler which handles new messages from rabbitmq, just like a phoenix controller which handles new requests.You wouldn’t need the
worker(Task, [&Friends.save/0], restart: :transient)from above.
