Hello,
Is there a way to combine types? It would be awesome to be able to do |> for Map.merge
defmodule JEC.Types do
@type network_identifier :: %{
network_identifier: %{
network: String.t()
}
}
@type public_key :: %{
public_key: %{
hex: String.t()
}
}
@type derive_account_identifier :: network_identifier() |> Map.merge(public_key())
end
When i try the above i get this error
(CompileError) type |>/2 undefined (no such type in Radixir.Types)
Stacktrace:
│ (elixir 1.13.2) lib/kernel/typespec.ex:923: Kernel.Typespec.compile_error/2
│ (elixir 1.13.2) lib/kernel/typespec.ex:307: Kernel.Typespec.translate_type/2
│ (stdlib 3.17) lists.erl:1358: :lists.mapfoldl/3
│ (stdlib 3.17) lists.erl:1359: :lists.mapfoldl/3
│ (elixir 1.13.2) lib/kernel/typespec.ex:235: Kernel.Typespec.translate_typespecs_for_module/2
But doing this work
defmodule JEC.Types do
@type network_identifier :: %{
network_identifier: %{
network: String.t()
}
}
@type public_key :: %{
public_key: %{
hex: String.t()
}
}
@type derive_account_identifier :: Map.merge(network_identifier(), public_key())
end
Im going to need to merge a lot @type so doing the Map.merge would get pretty messy.
Any ideas / help would be much appreciated.

Not going to give you a copy-paste-able suggestion but probably macros can help.
jonericcook
Cool - ill dig into macros

Look into the Code.Typespec
elixir/lib/elixir/lib/code/typespec.ex at d17d2f209113143c32c72b8815e7d9fb2dc93527 · elixir-lang/elixir · GitHub
Note it is not an API,
so copy and paste the code and base your code in it, as it may change over time.

Note that you can also do a join,
dimitarvp
Always thought that’s an OR operator. But it actually merges? Nice.
jonericcook
I don’t believe it merges
I think it is intact an OR
eksperimental
exactly.
