Trying to add timex and timex.ecto to my phoenix project, getting dependancy errors

[outlog]

Support for Ecto 3.0

that also links to How to upgrade an app using timex_ecto to Phoenix 1.4 and Ecto 3.0

that states:

Just to clarify - Ecto uses the native elixir datetime types since Ecto 2.1 released almost 2 years ago. If the timex_ecto package is not needed now, it wasn’t needed back then as well. It’s just that now the old custom ecto datetime types were removed after being deprecated for almost 2 years.

The things in this area that Ecto 3 changes are that the low-level “raw” query interface also returns the elixir types instead of the erlang-style tuples and that we have the explicit separation of _usec and non-usec types.

so do you really need timex_ecto? (if it’s a new app I would guess not…)
