Directly attach an after_action function to the current change.

See Ash.Changeset.after_action/3 for more information.

Provide the option prepend?: true to place the hook before all other hooks instead of after.

example

Example

change after_action(fn changeset, record ->
  Logger.debug("Successfully executed action #{changeset.action.name} on #{inspect(changeset.resource)}")
  {:ok, record}
end)

Directly attach an after_transaction function to the current change.

See Ash.Changeset.after_transaction/3 for more information.

Provide the option prepend?: true to place the hook before all other hooks instead of after.

example

Example

change after_transaction(fn
  changeset, {:ok, record} ->
    Logger.debug("Successfully executed transaction for action #{changeset.action.name} on #{inspect(changeset.resource)}")
    {:ok, record}
  changeset, {:error, reason} ->
    Logger.debug("Failed to execute transaction for action #{changeset.action.name} on #{inspect(changeset.resource)}, reason: #{inspect(reason)}")
    {:error, reason}
end)

Directly attach a before_action function to the current change.

See Ash.Changeset.before_action/3 for more information.

Provide the option append?: true to place the hook after all other hooks instead of before.

example

Example

change before_action(fn changeset ->
  Logger.debug("About to execute #{changeset.action.name} on #{inspect(changeset.resource)})

  changeset
end)

Directly attach a before_transaction function to the current change.

See Ash.Changeset.before_transaction/3 for more information.

Provide the option append?: true to place the hook after all other hooks instead of before.

example

Example

change before_transaction(fn changeset ->
  Logger.debug("About to execute transaction for #{changeset.action.name} on #{inspect(changeset.resource)})

  changeset
end)

@spec ensure_selected(select :: atom() | [atom()]) :: Ash.Resource.Change.ref()

Passes the provided value into Ash.Changeset.ensure_selected/2

If the value is not already selected, this makes sure it is. Does not deselect anything else.

example

Example

change ensure_selected([:necessary_field])

@spec load(load :: term()) :: Ash.Resource.Change.ref()

Passes the provided value into changeset.api.load(), after the action has completed.

example

Example

change load(:comments)
change load([:friend_count, :friends])

@spec manage_relationship(
  argument :: atom(),
  relationship_name :: atom() | nil,
  opts :: Keyword.t()
) :: Ash.Resource.Change.ref()

Calls Ash.Changeset.manage_relationship/4 with the changeset and relationship provided, using the value provided for the named argument.

If relationship_name is not specified, it is assumed to be the same as the argument.

For information on the available options, see Ash.Changeset.manage_relationship/4.

examples

Examples

change manage_relationship(:comments, type: :append)
change manage_relationship(:remove_comments, :comments, type: :remove)

@spec prevent_change(attribute :: atom()) :: Ash.Resource.Change.ref()

Clears a change off of the changeset before the action runs.

Does not fail if it is being changed, but ensures it is cleared just before the action.

Can be useful if a change is only used in validations but shouldn't ultimately be written to the data layer.

examples

Examples

change prevent_change(:email)

Relates the actor to the data being changed, as the provided relationship.

options

Options

• :relationship (atom/0) - Required. The relationship to set the actor to.

• :allow_nil? (boolean/0) - Whether or not to allow the actor to be nil, in which case nothing will happen. The default value is false.

• :field (atom/0) - The field of the actor to set the relationship to

examples

Examples

change relate_actor(:owner, allow_nil?: true)

@spec select(select :: atom() | [atom()]) :: Ash.Resource.Change.ref()

Passes the provided value into Ash.Changeset.select/3

Keep in mind, this will limit the fields that are selected. You may want ensure_selected/1 if you want to make sure that something is selected, without deselecting anything else.

Selecting in changesets does not actually do a select in the data layer. It nils out any fields that were not selected after completing the action. This can be useful if you are writing policies that have to do with specific fields being selected.

example

Example

change select([:name])

Sets the attribute to the value provided.

If a zero argument function is provided, it is called to determine the value.

Use arg(:argument_name) to use the value of the given argument. If the argument is not supplied then nothing happens.

options

Options

• :set_when_nil? (boolean/0) - When false, decline setting the attribute if it is nil. The default value is true.

• :new? (boolean/0) - When true, sets the attribute to the value provided if the attribute is not already being changed. The default value is false.

examples

Examples

change set_attribute(:active, false)
change set_attribute(:opened_at, &DateTime.utc_now/0)
change set_attribute(:status, arg(:status))
change set_attribute(:encrypted_data, arg(:data), set_when_nil?: false)

@spec set_context(context :: map() | mfa()) :: Ash.Resource.Change.ref()

Merges the given query context.

If an MFA is provided, it will be called with the changeset. The MFA should return {:ok, context_to_be_merged} or {:error, term}

examples

Examples

change set_context(%{something_used_internally: true})
change set_context({MyApp.Context, :set_context, []})

@spec set_new_attribute(
  relationship :: atom(),
  (() -> term()) | {:_arg, :status} | term()
) ::
  Ash.Resource.Change.ref()

Sets the attribute to the value provided if the attribute is not already being changed.

If a zero argument function is provided, it is called to determine the value.

Use arg(:argument_name) to use the value of the given argument. If the argument is not supplied then nothing happens.

examples

Examples

change set_new_attribute(:active, false)
change set_new_attribute(:opened_at, &DateTime.utc_now/0)
change set_new_attribute(:status, arg(:status))
