The pass var type static[string] to macro doesn't work for me.
import macros
import json
template evalStr(e: static[string]): untyped =
  macro payload: untyped {.gensym.} =
    result = parseStmt(e)
  payload()
macro checkStatic(strEval: static[string]) : untyped =
  echo "passed but not static: ", strEval
  evalStr("""var j = %* {"name": "Isaac", "books": ["Robot Dreams"]}""") # this works
  echo j # of course happens at compile time what I need
  
  evalStr(strEval) # it doesn't work but should
  
  result = quote do:
    echo ""
checkStatic """"var j2 = %* {"name": "Isaac", "books": ["Robot Dreams"]}""""
getting error: Error: type mismatch: got <string> but expected one of: template evalStr(e: static[string]): untyped
