NOTE: all documentation originally written by Paul Mineiro

erlrc is designed to make it easy to integrate your OS package manager with erlang's hot code loading mechanism. It consists of an extensible boot procedure controlled by a directory, and hooks for upgrading and downgrading individual applications (with shell script interface). Also includes an automatic appup file generation scheme which incorporates most of the cases from the appup cookbook.

Check out ErlrcInstall to get started.

Update: the download page has extra utilities:

  • erlstart: some helper scripts for starting and talking to an Erlang VM
  • erlnode: run an erlang node on a RedHat host
