Erlang docs with asdf-vm

In this topic:

[solved] Is it possible to get erlang docs in IEx yet?

With the introduction of EEP-48 I believe one of the goals is to have good interoperability between Elixir and Erlang docs by storing them in the same chunk of beam files. Is there a tracking issue to actually read the erlang documentation from IEx? As far as I can tell there are PR’s to “adopt EEP-48” but nothing to make use of EEP-48 to read erlang docs. PR’s: https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/issues/7198 https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/pull/7826 https://github.com/erszcz/docsh/pu…

There is a link to Erlang’s bug tracker:

ERL-708: Implement EEP 48 aka doc chunks · Issue #4463 · erlang/otp

Hi,

I will try to make some progress regarding this in OTP soon and at least take a decision about what to do about this for the OTP 22 release.

Finally there is 22.0-rc1 version of Erlang in asdf-erlang plugin, but I did not tried it yet. As you can see issue have still open status and it’s also not yet resolved, so it’s most probably not yet added to it.

For more information you would need to ask somebody from Erlang Core Team as I did not yet found anything other. Maybe somebody is already working on this … Author of previously mentioned comment is assigned to this ticket, so there is a chance to see stable support for it really soon.
