The mix run
command is used in the Elixir programming language to execute a given Elixir script.
In the command mix run ${my_script.exs}
, ${my_script.exs}
represents a placeholder for the name of the Elixir script file that you want to run. You should replace ${my_script.exs}
with the actual name of your script file, including the .exs
extension.
For example, if your script file is named hello.exs
, the command would be mix run hello.exs
.
The mix run
command is typically executed in the root directory of an Elixir project that uses Mix, which is a build automation tool for Elixir. The command compiles and runs the specified script file, allowing you to interact with it or see its output in the terminal.
