I have a resource that has a field that can be nil:
attribute :cma_url, :string
Now I want to have a create and a update action that will need this field to not be nil.
To achieve that, I did this:
create :create do
argument :cma_url, :string, allow_nil?: false
change set_attribute(:cma_url, arg(:cma_url))
end
update :update do
argument :cma_url, :string, allow_nil?: false
change set_attribute(:cma_url, arg(:cma_url))
end
This works great for my create action, when I use it in AshPhoenix.Form.for_create.
The problem is with the update action, when I use it with AshPhoenix.Form.for_update, the cma_url input field will be empty even if that fields has already some value to it.
If I replace it with:
update :update do
accept [:cma_url]
end
Now it works, but now the cma_url field will not be required anymore in the form.
How can I fix that?

The easiest way is instead of adding an attribute to use
require_attributes [:cma_url]in your action. That allows you to express that an attribute is required even if it typically is not.Alternatively, you could use a validation in the action

Damn! I was not aware of
require_attributes, amazing as always!
