Hello,
Is it possible to install an archive of mix tasks globally, so for all users at once?

Mix archives are expected to be placed at the location specified by MIX_ARCHIVES environment variable. So if you configure all users to have the same MIX_ARCHIVES value, then any installed archive and the tasks in them (like hex and phoenix.new) will be available to all users.

If it’s possible it’s not documented. https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/blob/v1.0.4/lib/mix/lib/mix/tasks/archive.install.ex#L1
But you can create a script to install it for each user with the —force option

OK, I'll try that.
Might be a handy addition to the docs too. :-)

Both are documented http://elixir-lang.org/docs/stable/mix/Mix.Tasks.Archive.Install.html and http://elixir-lang.org/docs/stable/mix/Mix.Tasks.Archive.html. Please don't use readthedocs, it's severely outdated.

Why not just take that site down? Very confusing for users not closely following up on the state of Elixir.

This is my fault. I want to support readthedocs.org for guides because it has full text search and pdf documents but i never got to it. I will give it higher priority.
