Getting the @type module attribute

Questions & Help Questions
1

Hi all,

I’ve been playing with Specify lately and I’m trying to get the @type module attribute like the @doc one, so as to link to that type in my documentation.

Configuration looks like this:

  Specify.defconfig do
    @doc "there are no floors for me to sweep"

    @type floors_to_sweep :: non_neg_integer()

    field :floors_to_sweep, default: 0
  end

Trying to get the @type module attribute always results in a nil value:

        field_documentation = Module.delete_attribute(__MODULE__, :doc)
        IO.inspect(Module.delete_attribute(__MODULE__, :type))

The :doc is retrieved, but not the :type module attribute.

I suspect the @type is processed in a particular way. Is there any way to retrieve it?

Cheers
