Hi everyone,
Working on a prototype using phoenix 1.7-rc and ash_authentication_phoenix, and getting the following error:
function MyAppWeb.Router.Helpers.auth_path/2 is undefined (module MyAppWeb.Router.Helpers is not available)
I saw in the release notes that Helpers were superceded by the verified routes with ~p. Is this the reason of the error, or is MyAppWeb.Router.Helpers supposed to be available with 1.7?
Thank you

Hey there! IIRC in the 1.7 rc the call to the router in MyAppWeb has
helpers: falsein it, and so you’d just need to change that totrue.axelbdt
You’re saving me again, Zach
Thank you!

live_path/3helper seems to be missing even withhelpers: trueconfiguration.zachdaniel
Is ash authentication code calling live_path/3 ?

Hopefully the changelog is updated soon to reflect this change. Currently is is suggesting helpers are still generated by default. PR is pending acceptance.

There’s no concern of backwards compatibility for newly generated projects. It’s a concern for existing projects updating to 1.7.

Ah, now it makes sense. So new apps ship with ‘false’ by default and can be set to ‘true’. Old apps don’t have any setting and then the fallback is ‘true’, which can be explicitly set to ‘false’ (or removed)
The paragraph does not make this clear imho; as it’s not part of the ‘migration’ but of the new feature list. So I read it as:
This would make it clear to me as it makes the situations explicit.

We may also be able to remove the need for the router helpers in the future for ash authentication.

Hello, can anyone please explain why Helpers are turned off by default? It has some useful functions. Sorry, I don’t use Elixir/Phoenix daily, I’m trying to pick it up (which I did try a few years back as well).
