Getting started

Add cloudevents to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [{:cloudevents, "~> 0.6.1"}]
end

Use Cloudevents.from_map/1 to create your first Cloudevent and see its JSON representation using Cloudevents.to_json/1.

If you're dealing with HTTP requests, Cloudevents.from_http_message/2, Cloudevents.to_http_binary_message/1 and Cloudevents.to_http_structured_message/2 are your friends.

If you need Avro, you need to add avrora to your dependency list:

def deps do
  [{:avrora, "~> 0.21"}]
end

Then, you need to add Cloudevents to your supervisor:

children = [
  Cloudevents
]

Supervisor.start_link(children, strategy: :one_for_one)

Or start Cloudevents manually:

{:ok, pid} = Cloudevents.start_link([])
