There are 4 target profiles for building emqx-rel: emqx, emqx-pkg, emqx-edge,and emqx-edge-pkg. The default target profile is emqx. User can build specified target release by execute command make ${target-release} in emqx_rel.

Build with elixir plugins

Modify the rebar.config.

{elixir_deps,
   [ {plugin_name, {git, "url_of_plugin", {tag, "tag_of_plugin"}}}
   , ....
   ....
   ]
}

......
......

{elixir_relx_apps,
    [ app_name1
    , app_name2]}.

Due to the limit of the rebar3_elixir_compile, users have to specify all the dependencies of the the elixir plugin in rebar.config in emqx-rel.

Start with epmd

For now, emqx starts without epmd by default. If you want to run emqx with epmd, you should set the environment variable $WITH_EPMD with any value you want, for example, execute export $WITH_EPMD=true in your shell, then run emqx, epmd will start soon afterwards.
