Accessing module attributes in HEEx?
I want to use a module attribute in HEEx code, like following code:
defmodule MyView do
use Phoenix.LiveView
@test "Test!"
def render(assigns) do
~H"""
<div>{@test}</div>
"""
end
end
I want @test will be interpreted as "Test!", the module attribute, but the compiler tries to read assigns.test and occurs error. Is there any convenient way to use module attributes in the HEEx?

You can add a helper function which returns this module attribute and use it in the template. Module attributes are not accessible in templates or outside of the modules in which they are defined.

@char_number 4
@impl true
def render(assigns) do
~H"""
<Layouts.app flash={@flash} current_scope={@current_scope}>
{gettext(
"The %{count} capital letters shown above should be written...blabla"
count: @char_number
)}
</.Layout.app>
I would say we could include the module attributes as fallbacks to the assigns. What do you guys think?

But a lot less surprising…
Although it does cause new confusion when someone uses it as an module attribute and as an assign.
