Remove, Get, And Compile a dependency

To get a better feel for how a dependency works I'll do some IO.puts style debugging, but when I'm done I need to clean up all those IO.puts statements.

mix deps.clean ecto

The above command will remove two directories, the _build/dev/lib/ecto dir and the deps/ecto dir.

mix deps.get ecto

This command will resolve the dependency tree and get the appropriate version of ecto based on the information in your mix.exs file. It will not reach out to the internet if the package is already cached as a tar file in the .hex/packages/hexpm dir. It will unpack the tar file into the local deps/ecto dir but it will not compile it.

mix deps.compile ecto

Will compile ecto to the _build/dev/lib/ecto directory.
