Atom fields will save upcase atoms as downcase

Blibs · 2023-06-24T18:56:22.960Z

I noticed that if I add an attribute like this: ```elixir attribute :currency, :atom do allow_nil? false constraints one_of: [:USD, :BRL, ...] end ``` And then save a `:USD` or `:BRL` value to it, when I retrieve the record, the value will be retrieved in lower case (ex. `:BRL` will be returned as `:brl`). Is this by design? In my case I want to store the currencies supported by the `Money` library, but they are all in upper case, meaning that when i get them back, they are considered invalid by the `Money` library.

I noticed that if I add an attribute like this:

    attribute :currency, :atom do
      allow_nil? false

      constraints one_of: [:USD, :BRL, ...]
    end

    attribute :currency, :atom do
      allow_nil? false

      constraints one_of: [:USD, :BRL, ...]
    end

And then save a

:USD

:USD

:BRL

:BRL

value to it, when I retrieve the record, the value will be retrieved in lower case (ex.

:BRL

:BRL

will be returned as

:brl

:brl

).

Is this by design? In my case I want to store the currencies supported by the

Money

library.
