Updating an embedded_schema & general problems understanding Ecto

When I try to submit updates, Phoenix tries to use a POST route rather than a PUT or a PATCH. I understand this is because the changeset doesn’t have a :loaded state because I built it manually (from it’s constituent models), so it infers that this should be a creation, not an update.

phoenix_html does work completely without ecto (the integration of ecto comes with the phoenix_ecto package) so you can always set the method you need manually:

from_for form_data, action, [method: :put], fn f -> […] end
