Hello everyone, I am a beginner Elixir developer and I don’t know a lot.
I’m thinking about how to add multiple foreign keys to one data structure using build_assoc
Let’s look at an example:
I have - employee, organization and location.
An employee has the following fields:
- id
- Name
- phone number
- organization ID
- location ID
…
In my multi transaction, an organization is created, then a location is created, and lastly, an employee is created.
During a transaction, we store the results of previous operations.
The problem is this:
After we create the organization and location, I want to take their id and put it in the worker through build_assoc.
How can I do that? In my understanding, we can only add 1 id via build_assoc.
Are there other ways?
My colleagues do this directly. That is, they put the ID through Map.put
I’d like to find a more elegant solution like build_assoc
