Erlang Distribution Console

Accessing an Erlang Distribution console

Setup

No additional setup is required for setting up erlang distribution on the target. On your host machine, you need to have Erlang Distribution running. This can usually be accomplished by starting epmd:

epmd --daemon

Connecting

From your host terminal, connecting to a running device can be done by using the remsh feature of elixir's built in console.

iex --name console --cookie democookie --remsh farmbot@farmbot-<SERIAL_NUMBER>.local

Disconnecting

Issuing a ctrl+c to the host terminal should disconnect you from the session.
