To further support OTP releases I have added support for generating application appup files. These include instructions that systools uses to generate a relup file which contains the low level instructions needed to perform a hot code upgrade. My goal with this module is to produce "good enough" appup files or at least a skeleton to help one get started with something more complex. If an appup file already exists for an application this command will not attempt to create a new one. Usage: $ rebar generate-appups previous_release=/path/to/old/version Generally this command will be run just before 'generate-upgrade'.

#### Building version 0.1
|
|
rebar compile
|
|
rebar generate
|
|
mv rel/dummy rel/dummy_0.1
|
|
rebar clean
|
|
# start the release:
|
|
cd rel/dummy_0.1
|
|
bin/dummy console
|
|
|
|
erl> dummy_server:get_state().
|
|
erl> dummy_server:set_state(123).
|
|
erl> dummy_server:get_state().

#### Building version 0.2
|
|
|
|
# Now, in another terminal we prepare an upgrade..
|
|
|
|
# change release version numbers from 0.1 to 0.2 in
|
|
$EDITOR apps/dummy/src/dummy.app.src
|
|
$EDITOR rel/reltool.config

#### Deploying with release_handler
|
|
mv rel/dummy_0.2.tar.gz rel/dummy_0.1/releases/
|
|
|
|
# Now use release_handler in the running erlang console for the deploy:
|
|
|
|
erl> release_handler:unpack_release("dummy_0.2").
|
|
erl> release_handler:install_release("0.2").
|
|
erl> release_handler:make_permanent("0.2").
