The library can be installed by adding exbeans to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:exbeans, git: "https://github.com/haljin/exbeans.git"}
  ]
end

Documentation can be generated with ExDoc using Mix.

Starting new Bohnanza game can be done using:

 Games.Supervisor.start_game(<GameName>, <Player1Name>, <Player2Name>)

where the names are some identifiers (not neccessarily unique). Identifiers can by any terms, although strings are preferred. The call will return PIDs of the processes started on a keyword list.

The game is initiated by having players register with the game using elixir ExBeans.Player.join_game/3. Once both players are registered the game will be initialized.

In general outside applications should only interact with the ExBeans.Player module to send inputs in the game, although they need to provide callbacks to both ExBeans.Player and ExBeans.BeanGame processes in order to receive notifications about the state of the game.

Please see the generated documentation for more details about the API.
