How do you increase Characters in a text box?
Hello,
I am working on a new application with Elixir, Dish_out. I have run into a few minor problems that I am trying to figure out.
- My text box for the summary only allows for a certain amount of characters. How can I increase the number of characters inside the text box and also the text box itself? Here is my attempt at this
schema "delish_foods" do
field :date, :integer
field :ingredients, :string
field :summary, :string
field :title, :string
timestamps()
end
alter table(:delish_foods) do
modify :content, :text
end
end
- is there a way to format the date input to add
/or-to make it look cleaner rather than just numbers? perhaps a time/date library.

validate_length(:summary, max: 250)textarea/3from the docs for your input field?strftime/3from Elixir’s Calendar module.Most Liked

No, but You should show your form code…
String is limited to 255 char, but text is not.
It’s also strange to store date as integer, there are date and datetime types of fields.

textarea, withouth dash in between
This is a string field… limited to 255, use text instead.

In your schema update your summary to:
field :summary, :text. You can see the supportedmix phx.gen.schematypes from docs.Last Post!
