TL;DR
A single element, in this case an integer, is given to a Phoenix.Component but a list of such elements should be given. Can a compile-time warning/error be produced by any tool?
I’ve made a repro project. The gist of it is that
A.Fooreturns an integer toAWeb.ALiveand it in turn (incorrectly) forwards this integer (rather than a list of integers) toAWeb.AComponent.
#1
defmodule A.Foo do
@spec number() :: pos_integer()
def number() do
1729
end
end
#2
defmodule AWeb.ALive do
use AWeb, :live_view
def mount(_params, _session, socket) do
{:ok,
socket
|> assign(:number, A.Foo.number())}
end
def render(assigns) do
~H"""
<AWeb.AComponent.bar numbers={@number} /> # Should've been `[@number]`
"""
end
end
#3
defmodule AWeb.AComponent do
use Phoenix.Component
attr(:numbers, :list, required: true)
@spec bar(%{numbers: list(pos_integer)}) :: any
def bar(assigns) do
~H"""
<li :for={number <- @numbers}>
<%= number %>
</li>
"""
end
end
Can this be catched by the compiler, Dialyzer, anything? My understanding is “no”, but I hope I’m wrong:
attrmacro atm only does compile-time validation of literals- even
@specing thePhoenix.Componentabove with@spec bar(%{numbers: list(pos_integer)}) :: anydoesn’t help, asmix dialyzergives no warnings.
Is there any other tool that would help with this?

I haven’t looked at the implementation of the heex compiler, but my intuition suggests there is a runtime
applyhappening versus compiling a direct invocation of the function in the component syntax. If that is the case then there is no static link between the bar function and its invocation. I do not know if that is a detail that can be changed, but I’d start there and at least rule out the possibility that could be done to support dialyzer.
