Elixir
This release includes initial support for Erlang/OTP 28, for those who want to try it out. In such cases, you may use Elixir v1.18.4 precompiled for Erlang/OTP 27, as it is binary compatible with Erlang/OTP 28. Note, however, that Erlang/OTP 28 no longer allows regexes to be defined in the module body and interpolated into an attribute. If you do this:
@some_attribute ~r/foo/
def some_fun, do: @some_attribute
You must rewrite it to:
def some_fun, do: ~r/foo/

Congratulations!
For those of you who want to try Elixir 1.18.4 w/ OTP 28 and uses
igniterpackage, the compilation is broken becauseigniterdepends on GitHub - nurugger07/inflex: An Inflector library for Elixir · GitHub that uses regexps in module constants all over the place.warmwaffles
I think I made a decent fix for Inflex, now we just wait and see if upstream accepts it.
vkryukov
Thanks, and I already incorporated your fix into
igniter, sinceinflexdoesn’t seem to be actively maintained.zachdaniel
We’ve made a new release of igniter that does not depend on inflex. Thanks @vkryukov for the PR, igniter should be good to go with OTP 28.

Hey
For the curious ones, I think this is the relevant release note about this breaking change:
That’s interesting how defining regexes in the module body is so popular in the Elixir community, but it works only by “accident”
.
zachdaniel
Yeah in Ash we have something like this:
and
all of which need to change now to support functions being provided
.
zachdaniel
Update: future releases will support strings instead, and will warn on a regex being provided. i.e
constraints match: "@", and a string being provided will be treated as a regex.
