I’m running into the following errors, going through the Ecto getting started docs.
Calling
person = %Friends.Person{}
changeset = Friends.Person.changeset(person, %{})
Produces
** (FunctionClauseError) no function clause matching in Keyword.get/3
The following arguments were given to Keyword.get/3:
# 1
:last_name
# 2
:trim
# 3
true
Attempted function clauses (showing 1 out of 1):
def get(keywords, key, default) when is_list(keywords) and is_atom(key)

person.ex
defmodule Friends.Person do
use Ecto.Schema
schema "people" do
field(:first_name, :string)
field(:last_name, :string)
field(:age, :integer)
end
def changeset(person, params \\ %{}) do
person

end
end

defmodule Friends.Repo.Migrations.CreatePeople do
use Ecto.Migration
def change do
create table(:people) do
add :first_name, :string
add :last_name, :string
add :age, :integer
end
end
end

Hey @2FO welcome! The issue is that this line here should be:
Basically you’re passing in the atom
:last_nameinto the argument that would be the options value. To pass in multiple fields that should be required you should use a list.tmariaz
Hi,
I’m new to elixir and when I run my api it throws an error. Not sure what is wrong.
UserController
Error
Trying to figure it out but no luck so far.

This doesn’t appear to be related to the code in your controller at all; somewhere in your Guardian configuration you’ve got the atom
:defaultwhere the package expects a keyword list.
