# EasyRpc
This library help developer easy to wrap a remote procedure call (rpc, library uses Erlang `:erpc` module).
## Installation
Adding `easy_rpc` library to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:easy_rpc, "~> 0.1.5"}
]
end
```
## Usage
Follow steps
### Add config to config.exs
Put config to config.exs file, and use it in your module by using RpcWrapper.
User need separate config for each wrapper, and put it in config.exs
```Elixir
config :app_name, :wrapper_name,
nodes: [:"test1@test.local"],
error_handling: true,
select_mode: :random,
module: TargetApp.Interface.Api,
functions: [
# {function_name, arity, options}
{:get_data, 1},
{:put_data, 1, error_handling: false},
{:clear, 2, new_name: :clear_data, retry: 3},
{:clear_all, 0, new_name: :clear_all, private: true}, # wrap to private function.
]
```
### Add to local module
by using `use EasyRpc.RpcWrapper` in your module, you can call remote functions as local functions.
```Elixir
defmodule DataHelper do
use EasyRpc.RpcWrapper,
otp_app: :app_name,
config_name: :account_wrapper
def process_remote() do
# call rpc like a local function.
case get_data("key") do
{:ok, data} ->
# do something with data
{:error, reason} ->
# handle error
end
end
end
# Or call from other module
{:ok, result} = DataHelper.get_data("my_key")
```
For more details please go to module's docs.
