Re: [elixir-core:11996] Proposal: Add `deps.add` mix command

[Zachary Daniel]

This isn't in core elixir, but the igniter package gives you this and much more :) `mix igniter.install timex` Home — igniter v0.5.8 hexdocs.pm If you install the archive, `mix igniter.install` even works in projects where you haven't added igniter to the deps yet :) On Jan 13, 2025, at 3:08 AM, 'Edmond Lepedus' via elixir-lang-core <elixir-lang-core@googlegroups.com> wrote: Hi, Sorry if this has been asked before, but could we have a command to add a new dependency?  I've spent the past few month primarily using Livebook, and the S-P shortcut for searching for packages quickly became second-nature. Last week I "graduated" a project out of LIvebook into its own Phoenix project, and literally did a double-take when I remembered that I had to manually find the dependency on hex.pm and then copy the snippet into `mix.exs`. It might seem like a small thing, but being able to say to someone new to Elixir " just install Timex -- `mix deps.add timex`" would be much easier, especially if they're already familiar with other package managers like `npm i --save` or `bundle add`.
