Programming Phoenix LiveView: assign_demographic issue p179
Hi all,
I’m getting this when going to /survey and all code appears to be the same:
Request: GET /survey
** (exit) an exception was raised:
** (FunctionClauseError) no function clause matching in PentoWeb.DemographicLive.Form.assign_demographic/1

Any pointers?
Thanks.

Found the issue:
Page 181 in the PDF has the code like above, but line 9 should be the key current_user like is shows later in the PDF on page 191 (current_user={@current_user})
Great learning experience though!
