Elixir v1.9
Phoenix v1.3
It’s an umbrella app. I go into app/my_app and run mix ecto.gen.migration CreateNewTable and it starts compiling the whole project.
Is that suppose to happen?
I think the app is always going to be compiled before running any mix task. The reason for that is that you might want to run a task that’s defined in the application.
But I must say that I find it funny when I make a typo in compile, as in mix compile:
$ ~/app > mix compil
Compiling 320 files (.ex)
Generated my_app app
** (Mix) The task "compil" could not be found. Did you mean "compile"?
