httpotion (ibrowse) fail to compile

[Ronen Narkis]

I use erlang 18 and Elixir 1.0.5, compiling ibrowse I keep getting:

==> ibrowse (compile)

Compiling src/ibrowse_lib.erl failed:

src/ibrowse_lib.erl:371: erlang:now/0: Deprecated BIF. See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the ERTS User's Guide for more information.

ERROR: compile failed while processing /home/ronen/code/octo/deps/ibrowse: rebar_abort

** (Mix) Could not compile dependency ibrowse, /home/ronen/.mix/rebar command failed. If you want to recompile this dependency, please run: mix deps.compile ibrowse

Is the only solution is to downgrade to erlang 17?

Thanks

I did follow the user guide to http://erlang.org/doc/apps/erts/time_correction.html from httpotion travis file I probably should use 17.1

ibrowse compiles fine under OTP 18.0.1 here, so long as you use master
which
includes https://github.com/cmullaparthi/ibrowse/issues/129 and not
v4.1.1
which does not. I've asked for a new tag[1].

Your mix.exs should include:

defp deps do
[{:ibrowse, github: "cmullaparthi/ibrowse", ref: "5ee4a80"}
]
end

wrt travis-ci, this should be unrelated; I don't think travis' lack of
OTP 18.0 support should matter here.

Using master does solve the issue https://github.com/myfreeweb/httpotion/issues/62
