# Mix v1.10.3 mix compile.leex View Source

Compiles Leex source files.

When this task runs, it will check the modification time of every file, and if it has changed, the file will be compiled. Files will be compiled in the same source directory with a .erl extension. You can force compilation regardless of modification times by passing the `--force` option.

## Command line options

- `--force` - forces compilation regardless of modification times

- `--all-warnings` - prints warnings even from files that do not need to be recompiled

## Configuration

- `:erlc_paths` - directories to find source files. Defaults to `["src"]`.

- `:leex_options` - compilation options that apply to Leex's compiler.

  For a complete list of options, see `:leex.file/2`. Note that the `:report`, `:return_errors`, and `:return_warnings` options are overridden by this compiler, thus setting them has no effect.
