Settings View Source Store Context In Process

There are various things that can be stored in the process dictionary as opposed to passing them to every function. This is a stylistic choice, and in many cases could lead to less clear code, so use with caution. See the functions in the Ash module for more.

The following things can be stored in the process:

• Query/changeset context, will be merged with the context of any query/changeset before it is run.
• The current actor (i.e current_user)
• Whether or not to run authorization, i.e authorize?
• The current tracer
• The current tenant
