在Windows上成功运行Ranch的步骤是什么？

Question

Please what steps do we need to take to get Ranch working successfully on windows?

There is a very instructive set of examples in a great blog series which i am trying to follow here:

http://dbeck.github.io/Using-Ranch-From-Elixir/

http://dbeck.github.io/simple-TCP-message-performance-in-Elixir/

It however requires that we use the Ranch Erlang Lib.

Getting this to work on windows has been a pain so far:

mix.deps.compile fails

C:\Elixir\tcp_eval>mix deps.update --all
Running dependency resolution
Dependency resolution completed successfully
  ranch: v1.1.0

C:\Elixir\tcp_eval>mix deps.compile

With some help from here:

https://github.com/ninenines/erlang.mk/issues/294#issuecomment-147379818

I was able to get Ranch working on windows.

1) install the msys2 environment

2) run mix from within the MSYS2 environment

EDIT: Doing this via rebar

D:\Elixir\tcp_eval>rebar

Looking at Hex.pm, I decided to install rebar3 , this works/integrates well with mix.

following http://theburningmonk.com/2014/08/getting-started-with-rebar-on-windows/ we can get rebar3 working on windows

but this still does not work:

D:\Elixir\tcp_eval>mix deps.compile
==> ranch
'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
==> tcp_eval
** (Mix) Could not compile dependency :ranch, "make" command failed. You can recompile this dependency with "mix deps.compile ranch",
