The Controller's role in Phoenix 1.3 I am currently reading Programming Phoenix, trying to map the concepts onto Phoenix 1.3. As a reference I mostly got the Phoenix 1.3 Keynote by Chris McCord and the new Phoenix generators. While I would recommend waiting for Programming Phoenix 1.3, instead of going through the same ordeal, I have been learning quite a bit so far. One thing that is still not really clear in my mind tho, is the role of the Controller in Phoenix 1.3. In the Programming Phoenix book, the following is written: > You already know a bit about the differences between traditional MVC and Phoenix’s tweak from the perspective of controllers. More explicitly, we’d like to keep f…

On “Phoenix v1.3.0-rc.0 released”

I just watched McCord's presentation from Lonestar ElixirConf about the changes in 1.3. Pretty interesting stuff.

On “Is there massive difference between phoenix v1.2 and v1.3”

Waste of time no, but there significant are changes the way you structure your your app. Check the keynote by Chris Mccord if you haven't - link to this video

On “Is there a canonical way to make a Phoenix app?”

You should definitely look at the changes that Phoenix 1.3 brings to the field. It makes dealing with such problems a bit easier. http://swanros.com/phoenix-1-3-is-pure-love-for-api-development/ link to this video

I think he mentioned that in his talk. His talk should be up on YouTube now. link to this video

The keynote from Lonestar Elixir Conf is the clearest source of information I've seen: link to this video

On “Phoenix Context VS Elixir Umbrella apps”

In this video Chris McCord explains it pretty well: link to this video You could still use umbrella apps and have each application still be responsible for the transformation, validation and storage of data. Using contexts, validation and storage are one application and the interface (web or channels) are another. That means your web apps dont need to understand anything about where the data goes or how it's stored. In contrast you could just do all that inside a single app and just have several small monoliths if you will. Contexts help you to decouple how the data comes in and how it's expected to be presented with how it's stored and validated.

On “Elixir and Phoenix”

Are you perhaps referring to course made by Stephen Grider? I can recommend doing the course anyway. It's a really good course for a beginners as he really goes into the nitty gritty of the language and framework. Yes, some of it's outdated. I think most of it is the changing from MVC to Context paradigm. You can watch one link to this video by Chriss Mccord and you will be up to speed. Afterwards read programing phoenix and you will have a good basis to do some small project to improve your knowledge on the tech.
