So when can we expect a LiveView Components library? :smiley:

Today’s my last day working as a QA. Next week I’m starting my new job as a junior elixir developer! To me it is a great opportunity because I live in a relatively small city (~100k people) and most other places are looking for java/js devs.

I’m going to use these couple of free days to continue working through Real time Phoenix.

Just posted in another thread but since it’s also a good answer to this topic… aside from ongoing work on a PR to phoenix_live_dashboard to add support for metric history, I’ve started an ease-of-use package for working with it, though I can’t release it to hex until PR is merged upstream… if anyone wants to give a try or feedback on code/docs you can add to mix.exs as a fit dependency from here https://github.com/bglusman/live_dashboard_history

Let me know if I can help! Right now the local dev environment I tried to shamelesssly copy from LiveDashboard isn’t working quite right, haven’t gotten around to debugging yet, but there is a working integration with it merged into elixir-companies as a reference if it helps (you can also see it live there if you auth via github at elixir-companies.com and then after auth visit /dashboard; note there is an outstanding JS bug so that the chart Y axis doesn’t update until first live JS event is sent to browser). I also think it should be trivial to switch from a hack I used to name dynamic processes after the router to instead use a Registry shouldn’t be hard? but my first attempt isn’t working and I haven’t had time to debug, though that’s pushed up in a branch.

Building a portal for my company’s DevOps services (GitLab, GoCD, Redmine, Wiki, etc.).

The goal is to provide an OAuth 2.0 interface to the services, and bridge to the existing non-standard LDAP authentication under the hood. It also provides a user interface that lists all existing services (with Live View, yay!) so that the users can one-click to whatever service he/she want to use, without manually sign in to it.

Since I’ve put some similar services in to the system (GoCD vs Jenkins vs GitLab CI, Wiki.js vs Dokuwiki), the next thing I wanna do is to create polls to see which one is favored by most. I plan to use Live View here too.

I’m currently building a real-time Digital Signage system that also displays live data like news updates, e.t.c. I’m more than half-way through. It’s been fun working with Elixir and co.

By the way, I’m also an intermediate C++ programmer- I’m very much interested but not yet proficient enough to develop a Phoenix Websocket Client for QT I think it’s a good initiative that will encourage software developers building for Qt-based embedded devices to leverage on Elixir-Phoenix backends-- This will undercut the use of the massive extra layer of QtWebengine for some resource-constrained projects. It will be nice if @OvermindDL1 and other C++ Pros would chime in on this.

At the moment I’m working on some new features for the ex_sieve library. These will include predicates validation based on ecto field type and more configuration parameters.

Oh that sounds really cool! And yeah using webkit is quite heavy, it is a full browser engine, so being able to use the direct API’s is always nicer especially on embedded systems.
