12637 :: Strange problem of importing module

• geohuz (orginal) [2025-01-01T08:44:09+01:00] view original

  i have appConfig.nim

  
  import yaml, streams
  
  type
    AppConfig* = object
      api_end_point: string
      binance_api_key: string
      binance_secret: string
  
  proc loadConfig*(filePath: string): AppConfig =
    var config: AppConfig
    let s = newFileStream(filePath)
    load(s, config)
    s.close()
    
    result = config
  Run

  in other nim file, I import and use the loadConfig like this:

  
  let cfg = loadConfig("config.yaml")
  echo $cfg.api_end_point
  Run

  I'm getting Error: undeclared field: 'api_end_point' for type appConfig.AppConfig. I can't see a fix for it.

  You need to export the fields of an object, in addition to the object itself.

  
  type
    AppConfig* = object
      api_end_point*: string
      binance_api_key*: string
      binance_secret*: string
  Run
