Import interface lib

Suppose the interface lib you exported is called dubbo_service.

  • If you didn’t upload your lib to your git repository, It is recommended that you copy the dubbo_service lib into the project’s apps directory.
  • If it is upload to your git repository, you can import like this:
{deps, [
    {dubboerl, {git, "https://github.com/apache/dubbo-erlang.git", {branch, "master"}}},
    {dubbo_service,{git,"${INTERFACE_LIB_URL}",{branch,"master"}}} %% replace ${INTERFACE_LIB_URL} with your lib git repos url
]}.
