This post takes into account that you (the reader) are aware and know why and when to use Ecto.https://tomkonidas.com/repo-fetch/Sat, 29 Oct 2022 11:00:10 -0400tom@konidas.ca (Tom Konidas)https://tomkonidas.com/repo-fetch/Every project I find myself writing the same bit of code. I love to use case and with statements for conditional control flow across my code base and much prefer to use ok/error tuples over pattern matching on nil. I find it weird that Ecto does not have this included in their API already, however luckily for us, it is easy to key in and extend the Repo module.https://tomkonidas.com/about/Thu, 20 Oct 2022 19:50:41 -0400tom@konidas.ca (Tom Konidas)https://tomkonidas.com/about/About Me Hi there 🖖 My name is Tom Konidas and I am a BEAM focused software developer from Montréal.
