Hello everybody, im just newbie at phoenix, im trying to build a trello clone and decided to do the backend using phoenix for training and fun, actually i follow this tutorial to do the user part:
Thats okay and it is working, so i created the context of item, and add the board,list and will do cards, but my question for now is how can i use the current user id and add it to the board when being created?
You can see my progress here:

Hello,
From the outline you described I’d say that you can obtain the current user id from the session when POSTing to the BoardController.
In there, I assume you’ll call a function inside the Board context to create a new Board.
Pass the current user id as a parameter to the create function. Which in turn will create the association.
If you want some pointers about how you’d create the association, have a look at this: Associations · Elixir School
