Problem with function to dynamically define modules

def doesn’t capture its environment, so it won’t work directly.

You could do some AST surgery on what def produces:

{:def, [context: Elixir, import: Kernel],
 [
   {:run, [if_undefined: :apply, context: Elixir], Elixir},
   [do: {:%{}, [], [value: PUT_THE_VALUE_HERE]}]
 ]}

but the pattern of “interpolate this compile-time value into the AST” is frequent enough that there’s a built-in mechanism for doing it… module attributes :stuck_out_tongue:
