In short, currently it is not allowed to directly update nested records. ({
Rating.defaultViewConfig | readOnly = model.readOnly } is invalid syntax)
The temporary solution is the one you stumbled upon: creating an alias for
the nested record.
Another solution would be to use custom functions:
updateReadOnly : { a | readOnly : Bool } -> Bool -> a
updateReadOnly rec readOnly =
{ rec | readOnly = readOnly }
and then use it like:
ratingViewConfig =
updateReadOnly Rating.defaultViewConfig True
