Having trouble getting started with Ash
Hello,
On Reddit yesterday I mentioned getting stuck with the startup with the Ash framework, I have gotten different issues different times but this was my most recent one
I used the Ash websites code recommendation to get started, all I did was run the curl command which downloaded everything then I entered the directory it created and just running the igniter install commands fail
Here is the configuration I used and the error I get when running the mix igniter install step
I will say I get further along with the Postgres setup so maybe it has to do with sqllite

This looks like something I just shipped actually
can you try again?
actually something strange there, I wonder why its using
5.0
igniter version π€
Oh, you may just need mix deps.update igniter
and mix local.igniter
to update igniter versions?https://gist.github.com/Harshill/4ec01c5ae992b0ebc2b72d0da3556cf4
i got the same issue, here is my terminal output after running each step
What does
mix deps.outdated
in your project shows
sorry, mix hex.outdated
of course as soon as I tell you our onboarding is better there is an onborading bug π
Haha it happens, I like the ease of onboarding but I wish I understood the basics of it so I can debug myself like what igniter is trying to do etc
I got your book by the way! So I really want to make ash work it seems like a fantastic idea

SOmething seems really strange here
The stacktrace is showing this:
that shows igniter at version
0.5.0
oh wait
mix archive
Let me try getting asdf to use a local elixir and eel and for the project
whats the output of that
It says
Hex-2.1.1
Igniter 0.5.0
Igniter_new -0.5.29
Phx_new-1.8.0-rc.3
yep
thats the problem
this isn't something that can happen anymore
mix archive.uninstall igniter
at some point, you did mix archive.install hex igniter
instead of mix archive.install hex igniter_new
new versions of igniter prevent you from doing that
because it causes all kinds of weird crap π
(like this)Ah makes sense! So once I uninstall igniter I can just rerun those original commands that were failing right?
yep, should work
I didn't think to ask because it hasn't been possible to do
mix archive.install hex igniter
for a while, but it makes sense if you checked it out a while back, had issues then, and are still in that bad state.Yupp thatβs working now, hopefully no more issues!

woah. that's too tricky :p
