BeamLangsMetaData provides meta-data for BEAM languages.

Currently Elixir and Erlang/OTP are supported. More languages will be added if there's interest.

BeamLangsMetaData - is a small library which contains JSON files including:

• every Elixir release and prerelease starting from v1.0.0
• and Erlang/OTP releases and prereleases starting from Erlang/OTP 17.0
• the compatibility table between the two languages

The information in this module is regularly updated, and stored with every new release of this library.

This library does not download information neither at compile time nor at run time.

BeamLangsMetaData.Json provides functions to return the JSON files stored in this project.

This library is aimed at Elixir developers who need to access up-to-date information. If you are a developer and need more refined information, please have a look at its sister library ElixirMeta.

Due to the nature of the project and since we have not reached v1.0 yet, only the latest v0.MINOR versions will be update with the latest meta-data. Older packages will be retired and you will get a warning when using them indicating that you need to update your library.
