Background
I have a custom struct and I want to define a type for it so I can run Dialyzer checks. However Dialyzer is complaining that I have an unknown type.
Code
I have a struct that defines an Event and I have defined the following type:
defmodule MyApp.Event do
@enforce_keys [:event_id, :type, :version]
defstruct event_id: nil,
type: "event",
version: nil
@type t() :: %__MODULE__{
event_id: non_neg_integer,
type: String.t(),
version: non_neg_integer
}
@spec new(map) :: __MODULE__.t()
def new(map),
do: %__MODULE__{
event_id: Map.get(map, "event_id"),
type: Map.get(map, "type"),
version: Map.get(map, "v")
}
end
Problem
However when I run mix dialyzer I get the following error:
:0: Unknown type ‘Elixir.Event’:t/0
What am I missing?

Somewhere in your code you are refering to
Event.tbut you have not analias MyApp.Eventthere.tme_317
Also if you want to cut down on the boilerplate for the exact same result you can use typed_struct. I don’t usually like to add tons of “helper” deps like this but in this case it’s so natural I use it all the time.

@NobbZ If only Dialyzer told me which file has the issue, it would be a start
I found it now, thanks!
@tme_317 I am a fan of the library and I use it in my projects.
However, I decided to not bring that yet to work. People may feel overloaded.
Besides, I find it better to use vanilla examples in the forum, this way the number of people able to help me is bigger
