Hi,

I’m building an app that uses SurrealDB, I connect to it via RPC and I want to be able to present a form to the user that lets it add and edit some data.

So far, pretty much straight forward, no issues.
That’s what I got in my mount currently -

    form_simple = %{
      "title" => "list a",
      "category" => "movies",
      "description" => "",
      "items" => [%{"value" => "38"}]
    }
      socket
      |> assign(form: to_form(form_simple, as: "new-list"))

The issue rises when I want to enable the functionality for adding and removing more items.

For that, I’ve been trying to make -

    <.form
      :let={form}
      id="new-list"
      name="new-list"
      for={@form}
      action={~p"/user/signin"}
      class="space-y-6"
    >
.....
      <.inputs_for :let={f_items} field={form[:items]}>
        <.input type="text" field={f_items[:value]} />
      </.inputs_for>

</.form>

work.
You can ignore the action attribute, it’s WIP.

No matter what I do, I can’t find a way to render stuff via inputs_for, I’m getting different errors, for every attempt I make.

I’m getting -
the Access module supports only keyword lists (with atom keys), got: "_persistent_id",

This is only the current error, when I try other approaches, then I get other errors (a bit difficult to reproduce for the purpose of this post)

Can’t find a way to make it work.

The only option I can think of now, is to simply track the :items separately and do the appropriate work on submitting the form.

Would love to get some ideas
