We were generating the term from the wrong object, meaning the system was not keeping the object we should be. We were also not setting the repository or increasing its refcount, meaning bad news when it came time to GC the object.
Geef (Git NIF)
Geef is a simple Erlang NIF that exposes some of the libgit2 library functions to Erlang.
INSTALLING AND RUNNING
First you need to install libgit2:
$ git clone git://github.com/libgit2/libgit2.git
$ cd libgit2
$ make
$ make install
Now, if you have Erlang OTP_R13B04 installed, you can compile this NIF to run in it.
$ git clone git://github.com/carlosmn/geef.git
$ cd geef
$ make
$ mix # if you want to build the elixir modules
The API looks basically like this:
{ok, Repo} = geef_repo:open(".").
Workdir = geef_repo:workdir(Repo).
{ok, Blob} = geef_blob:lookup(Repo, geef_oid:parse("abcde...")).
Elixir
Most functions are available from the elixir modules so you can make use of some elixir-specific
things, like Repository.open!, or Reference.resolve!.
alias Geef.Repository
alias Geef.Reference
repo = Repository.open!(".")
ref = Reference.lookup!(repo, "HEAD") |> Reference.resolve!
references, objects, etc are elixir records. Trees implement the Access protocol
%Reference{name: name} = Reference.lookup!(repo, "refs/heads/master")
IO.puts name
{:ok, tree} = Tree.lookup(repo, "abcde...")
IO.inspect tree["src/geef_pkt.erl"]
