How to Install Elixir on Linux Mint Latest?

This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Elixir on Linux Mint Latest. Elixir is a dynamic, functional language designed for building scalable and maintainable applications.

Step 1: Update your system

Before we install Elixir, it is recommended to update the system. Open a terminal and run the following command:

sudo apt-get update

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Elixir requires some dependencies to be installed. Run the following command to install them:

sudo apt-get install wget unzip

Step 3: Download and Install Elixir via Version Manager

Version Manager, also known as asdf, will be used to manage Elixir versions. Run the following command to install it:

sudo apt-get install git curl apt-transport-https

Once asdf is installed, we will download the latest version of Elixir using it. Run the following command:

asdf plugin add elixir

asdf install elixir latest

It may take some time depending on your internet speed.

Step 4: Set up environment variables

Now we need to set up the environment variables. Run the following command:

echo -e "\n. $HOME/.asdf/plugins/elixir/elixir-$VERSION-otp-$OTP/bin" >> $HOME/.bashrc

Replace $VERSION and $OTP with the actual version number and OTP version you installed. You can obtain this information using the following command:

asdf list elixir

Step 5: Verify the installation

To verify that Elixir is installed successfully, run the following command:

elixir --version

You should see output similar to the following:

Elixir 1.12.0 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 24)
