Rebar include ext libs error

Question

rebar config:

{deps, [
  {ibrowse, ".*",
   {git, "git://github.com/cmullaparthi/ibrowse.git", "master"}}
]}.

When make:

Uncaught error in rebar_core: {'EXIT',
                              {badarg,
                                  [{re,run,[git,[],[{capture,none}]]},
                                   {rebar_deps,is_app_available,3},
                                   {rebar_deps,find_deps,3},
                                   {rebar_deps,preprocess,2},
                                   {rebar_core,acc_modules,5},
                                   {rebar_core,process_dir,4},
                                   {rebar_core,process_commands,1},
                                   {rebar,main,1}]}}

make: * [all] Error 1

Why?

Answer 1

Your config file worked for me so I'd suggest doing the following:

1. make sure you have git installed
2. put the most recent build of rebar in your project directory
3. use a Makefile like the one I described here
4. delete your existing deps directory
5. run make

If you want to use rebar directly instead of using make you can do:

$ ./rebar get-deps
$ ./rebar compile
