GenStateMachine

An idiomatic Elixir wrapper for gen_statem in OTP 20 (and above).

Full documentation is available here.

You can find the package on Hex here.

One important difference between gen_statem and this wrapper is that you declare your callback mode as part of use GenStateMachine in this wrapper, rather than returning it from callback_mode/0.

Other than that (and the usual automatically-defined default callbacks as a result of use-ing GenStateMachine), this wrapper does not make any functional alterations.

This wrapper also provides a OTP error translator for Logger, which is automatically added when the :gen_state_machine application is started. Optionally, you may add :gen_state_machine to :included_applications rather than :applications as indicated below if you do not want the translator to be added to Logger.

Installation

  1. Add gen_state_machine to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:
def deps do
  [{:gen_state_machine, "~> 3.0"}]
end
  1. Ensure gen_state_machine is added to your applications:
def application do
  [applications: [:gen_state_machine]]
end

Special Thanks

I would like to give special thanks to @fishcakez and @michalmuskala, who both provided invaluable feedback on this library!
