Updating a Nested Map in a Schema

I have created a workaround? method?

I pattern match out of the get_test(id).

old_person = get_test(id)
%{id: id, delete: delete, person: person} = old_person
new_person = %{id: id, delete: delete, person: person}

Then I can use:
new_person = Kernel.put_in(new_person, [:person, "name"], "New Name")
because it is purely just a map now and not a Schema, then update row via the auto generated context function update_person:

> def update_person(%Test{} = test, attrs) do
>     test
>     |> Test.changeset(attrs)
> 	|> Repo.update()
>   end

by

update_person(old_person, new_person)

and BAM it’s updated.
If anyone has any improvements I would love to hear them!

You may also look into embeds_one to have your map treated as an embedded schema, with defined fields/changeset.

As for what you’ve achieved, that what I would do for a bare map too.
