Hello,
I’m having a bit of trouble creating a function with EctoMulti. I have support_tickets which have many support_ticket_messages. When I want to insert new message, I have the following function which takes the attrs and puts association to ticket and user and this function works just fine.
def create_support_ticket_message(%SupportTicket{} = ticket, %User{} = user, attrs) do
%SupportTicketMessage{seen: false}
|> SupportTicketMessage.changeset(attrs)
|> Ecto.Changeset.put_assoc(:support_ticket, ticket)
|> Ecto.Changeset.put_assoc(:user, user)
|> Repo.insert()
end
Now, I want to send notification to the user when new message is created so I wanted to use Ecto.Multi() but I’m not sure how to write it properly. The following function doesn’t work because I need to use a function to use Ecto.build_assoc() and I have only a changeset which contain message attrs.
changeset = SupportTicketMessage.changeset(attrs)
Multi.new()
|> Multi.insert(:support_ticket_message, changeset ->
Ecto.build_assoc(ticket, :support_ticket_messages)
Ecto.build_assoc(user, :user)
end)
|> Repo.transaction()
How to write this function properly?

Just solved it this way but if someone knows a better way, I would be happy to hear it.

Looks like you got it but since I typed this all out I’m gonna post anyway
I included the
runfunction you can use if you want notifying the user to be part of the transaction.sodapopcan
It’s worth noting though that if there isn’t a good reason to fail the operation if the user isn’t notified (and I would think this is generally the case) you don’t need a Multi here as a changeset with associations is automatically run in a transaction with
Repo.insertand friends.
