Windows has problems PendingCodegen after `ash.setup`

Hi in mac os i have no problem. in windows when My colleague clone the project and fresh install (after create db and migrate all migrations) , it gets this error in my phoenix project! (without any new changes) or changing anu resource code!

mix ecto.drop; mix ash.setup; mix run priv/repo/entry_dev_test_seeds.exs ; iex -S mix phx.server

[debug] Converted error Ash.Error.Framework.PendingCodegen to 500 response
[error] ** (Ash.Error.Framework.PendingCodegen) Pending Code Generation Detected for 7 files

Don't worry! This just means Ash needs to generate some files based on your recent changes.
Here's what you can do:

🚀 Ready to generate the files? Create temporary development files so you can keep working:

       mix ash.codegen --dev

🔍 Want to see what will be generated?

       mix ash.codegen --dry-run

✅ Finished with your changes? Create final production-ready files:

       mix ash.codegen <describe_your_changes>

‼️ Don't forget to run `mix ash.codegen` without the `--dev` flag before you
   wrap up!
   Add the following to your CI pipeline to ensure you've always generated up
   to date files, and that no --dev files are left behind.

       mix ash.codegen --check

mix ecto.drop; mix ash.setup; mix run priv/repo/entry_dev_test_seeds.exs ; iex -S mix phx.server

I even again clone the project in my system (which mac os) and i have no problem ! By the way in windows if we run mix ash.codegen --dev it creates some file and if run ash.setup it shows error it is already exist Ash last version Postgres version: psql (PostgreSQL) 16.10 windows 11 in mac os i can see when i start server and run a page in my log

By the way Ash uses picosat_elixir and windows has problem with it log after install all packages like c++ tools for build and let us to compile it: https://gist.github.com/MonaAghili/7893e23fee6a4e2769129ba9cfc2b807 ‌By the way in windows if we mix ash.codegen it rebuilds existing resources

Solution:

I just honestly don't think I have the bandwidth to support windows at this point, someone else will have to figure out this strangeness

So, mix ash.codegen --dev by design means that when you run mix ash.codegen name it will regenerate. That is by design. So when you get that error, if you run mix ash.codegen --dev --check what do you see?

Assuming that all the migrations are correctly created and are present in the repo, running mix ash.codegen again will regenerate several resources that already have migrations. I encounter an error when I clone the project from GitHub, fetch the dependencies, and then run:

mix ecto.create
mix ash.setup
mix run some_seeds.exs

mix ecto.create
mix ash.setup
mix run some_seeds.exs

Even the seed data gets inserted into the database correctly. Then I start the server with:

iex -S mix phx.server

iex -S mix phx.server

At this point, some queries are also executed successfully — until I open a page on the Phoenix site, and then the above-mentioned error appears.

Can you run the command I showed once that happens?

Add the dry run flag
