Visualizing parallel requests in Elixir
- benwilson-512 11y agoAnother very cool visualization tool for observing messages as they're passed between processes: https://github.com/koudelka/visualixir https://github.com/koudelka/visualixir
- simoncion 11y agoThis is what I expected to see in TFA, rather than an introduction to Observer. Don't get me wrong, Observer's really, really _useful_ and all, but -unless you're rather familiar with the syntax for the Erlang tracing infrastructure- it's... somewhere between challenging and impossible-due-to-impracticality... to use Observer to watch messages as they flow through your system. benwilson, I wonder if the folks who wrote TFA would be interested in hearing about visualixir.
- emilsoman 11y agoVisualixir looks interesting. I'll give it a shot and add some notes to the article. Thanks for mentioning :)
