This article looks at Techno Anarchist and Open Media Network tools that would boost efficiency and productivity in Bonfire workflows. And I will be paraphrasing heavily.

As mentioned in a previous TPF post, I plan to experiment with Bonfire and have taken notes for a series of articles.

This is the second one. The first is here if you inexplicably missed it. 😉

Ecto’s fragments still feel like Elixir

But what I also really love is that if I want to eject out and write plain SQL for a specific part, it still feels like Elixir, because everything else stays the same—it’s just a tiny fragment/1 that uses safe variable interpolation. And it turns out that Ecto.

Optimizing batch operations with Ecto

We had a feature in a product that required us to insert and update lots of data on a user action. Here is how we transformed 1000 SQL queries into 1. The way the code is structured is simple: An operations table and a translations table.

Ecto Datetime With Time Zone

While implementing a feature to store event dates, I stumbled upon what I initially thought was a straightforward task: saving future dates in a database along with their time zones. How hard could it be, right? Turns out, it’s not so simple.

Needle also comes with two other homegrown libraries: needle_ulid which provides a ULID datatype for Ecto (using ex_ulid) and related helpers, and exto which enables extending Ecto schema definitions in config (especially useful for adding Mixin associations to different schemas)…

Besides regular schemas with universal foreign keys (Pointable), Needle provides Virtual for schemas that don’t have any fields on their own, and Mixin for storing common fields that can be re-used by multiple Pointables or Virtuals (eg. if you have multiple types that all have a name/description/body, they can share those and optionally the associated changesets and other logic).

But what if you don’t just have posts that can be liked, but also videos, images, polls, etc, each with their own table, but probably do not want to have to add liked_video_id, liked_image_id, ad infinitum?

We needed the flexibility to have a foreign key that can reference any referenceable object. We call our system Needle.

A simple example would be a blogging app, which might have a post table with author field that references the user table.

A social network, by contrast, usually requires a graph of objects, meaning objects need to be able to refer to other objects by their ID without knowing their type.

A simple example would be likes, you might have a likes table with liked_post_id field that references the post table.

How to update multiple records with different values in Ecto.Repo.update_all

In this particular case, I was dealing with a table that leveraged parent_id to model a basic parent-child hierarchy. Through some larger business logic, I end up with a list of tuples [{1, "new root"}, {2, "Child 1"}, {3, "Child 2}] that essentially maps id => new name.

I been slowly utilizing #prql instead of raw #sql. 😅

So far, it makes sense when doing analytical jobs. But for language support, it is far more natural to use DSL features made for languages like #ecto in #elixir. 😎

https://prql-lang.org/book/

The talk I gave at #CodeBEAM Europe 2023 is now available on Youtube.

It shows how to build a DSL parser with #NimbleParsec one piece at a time, building an AST in the process and then compiling it to an #Ecto query.

In case you wonder what's my preferred stack to build services right now, it's as follows:

- #Elixir runs the system itself. No to #Phoenix, #Ecto, yes to #Plug, #Commanded.

- #Rust does the business-logic heavy-lifting. Normally single-threaded workers.

- #Typescript with #ReactJS and #Jotai does user-facing computations.

- #ETS for data views, #PostgreSQL for immutable history of the events and other data that is only INSERTed, never UPDATEd.

* * *

I am planning to see if I can replace #Elixir with #Purerl when I have the time.

Vorbereitung mit #ECTO-1. #Ghostbusters #Lego #LEGOphotography

It took me a while to sort out how to implement multi-tenancy the way I needed/wanted it in my Phoenix/Elixir apps, so I wrote up a giant post on it. I'm still new at this stack. Feedback/corrections are welcome!
