What is the primary focus of the Elixir Bindings Patterns skill?

It focuses on the architectural bridge between Elixir and Rust, specifically providing patterns for building NIFs using the Rustler library.

How does this skill handle data conversion between languages?

It implements a robust pattern using term_to_json and json_to_term helpers to safely map Elixir terms to Rust types via serde_json.

Can this skill help with performance issues in Elixir?

Yes, it provides specific guidance on using Dirty Schedulers to ensure that long-running Rust operations do not block the Erlang VM's standard schedulers.

Does it include testing patterns?

Yes, it covers the implementation of ExUnit tests within the standard Elixir project structure to verify native code behavior.

Implements high-performance Elixir bindings for Rust cores using the Rustler NIF bridge pattern and OTP integration best practices.

Acerca de

This skill provides specialized architectural guidance for creating robust Elixir wrappers around Rust-based cores using the Rustler NIF (Native Implemented Function) framework. It establishes a standardized data flow between Elixir terms and Rust types via JSON serialization, manages memory safety through ResourceArc, and optimizes BEAM performance by leveraging dirty schedulers for CPU-intensive work. This is essential for developers building polyglot systems that require the high-speed processing of Rust alongside the fault tolerance and concurrency of Elixir's OTP.
