I am trying to create a dynamic supervisor to start child processes. There are three modules I am using to do this, one is the main module, the second one is the Dynamic Supervisor and the third is the genserver. I do not get any errors but I am not able to see any child processes running.
Here is my code. The first one is the module having the main method
defmodule Simulator do
def main(args) do
{:ok, super_pid} = PersonManager.start_link(args)
start_persons(num_of_persons)
IO.inspect PersonManager.count_children, label: "The Persons started in main method are"
end
def start_persons(num_of_persons) when num_of_persons >=1 do
PersonManager.add_node(private_key, public_key, 0)
start_persons(num_of_persons-1)
end
# num_of_persons == 0 case handled
end
The following is a dynamic Supervisor
defmodule PersonManager do
use DynamicSupervisor
def start_link(args) do
DynamicSupervisor.start_link(__MODULE__, :ok, name: __MODULE__)
end
def add_node(private_key, public_key, num_of_coins) do
# The code flow does come here, used inspect to check
child_spec = {Person, {private_key, public_key, num_of_coins}}
DynamicSupervisor.start_child(__MODULE__, child_spec)
#The code flow does come here, used inpect to check.
end
end
The following is the GenServers the worker is supposed to create
defmodule Person do
use GenServer
def init({private_key, public_key, address, num_of_coins}) do
IO.puts "Starting a person"
{:ok, %{private_key: private_key, public_key: public_key, num_of_coins: num_of_coins}}
end
def start_link({private_key, public_key, address, num_of_coins}) do
IO.puts "Starting a person"
GenServer.start_link(
__MODULE__,
{private_key, public_key, address, num_of_coins}
name: {:global, "node:#{public_key}"},
)
end
end
I expect the genserver to be running but I get The Persons started in main method are: %{active: 0, specs: 0, supervisors: 0, workers: 0}
I dont know why the supervisor is not able to start the genserver.
Any help would be good.
TIA
