Hi, please let me know if this is listed plainly in the docs and I skipped it.
I’m writing an app with Phoenix and Ecto, standard fare. I have User
s and Room
s. Each Room
belongs to a User
, associated by a foreign key field called owner_id
on the Rooms table. The schemas are like this:
defmodule MyApp.Rooms.Room do
use Ecto.Schema
import Ecto.Changeset
schema "rooms" do
field :name, :string
belongs_to :user, SimpleVote.Accounts.User, foreign_key: :owner_id
timestamps()
end
end
defmodule SimpleVote.Accounts.User do
use Ecto.Schema
import Ecto.Changeset
@derive {Inspect, except: [:password]}
schema "users" do
field :email, :string
field :password, :string, virtual: true
field :hashed_password, :string
field :confirmed_at, :naive_datetime
has_many :rooms, SimpleVote.Rooms.Room, foreign_key: :owner_id
timestamps()
end
end
I’m running into trouble with that Room.owner_id
field. It looks like the struct turns preloads into the actual model (or table? name:
%Rooms.Room{
__meta__: #Ecto.Schema.Metadata<:built, "rooms">,
id: nil,
inserted_at: nil,
name: "room name",
owner_id: 1364,
updated_at: nil,
user: #Ecto.Association.NotLoaded<association :user is not loaded>
}
Note the user key.
Assuming this question makes sense… how do I set the name of the association field? Instead of Room.user
, I want Room.owner
.
Thanks in advance.
