Get module name as atom within a macro
Is it possible to generate the module name as an atom within a macro?
defmodule MyProject.Schema do
defmacro __using__(opts) do
quote do
use Ecto.Schema
import Ecto
import Ecto.Changeset
import Ecto.Query
def base_query(), do: from(__MODULE__, as: :?????)
# common functions used by most schemas ...
end
end
The base_query() would ideally resolve to:
def base_query(), do: from(MyProject.Customer, as: :customer)
Thanks!

I am searching for a way to get the module name as an atom. For example:
:projectsfromMyProject.SomeModule.SomeOthermodule.Projects. I think @kartheek’s solution is probably the most appropriate for my use case however.
