Multi alias use is not detected

v0.3.8 contains a fix for this. Would you mind test-driving it? 😁

Hi Aaron,

maybe you mistyped your example, but that is not how you use aliasing. An alias is used to reference a given module by another (shorter) name, which is by default the last part of the module atom. Your Sample module should therefore read:

defmodule Sample do
  @moduledoc false

  alias Sample.{One, Two}

  def foo do
    {One.one, Two.two}      # <----
  end
end

Was this a typo in your example or did I misinterpret the report? In any case, thanks for reporting! 👍

Yes, you are correct. I messed up the sample.

I corrected the sample that way it's obvious.

Also, what I just discovered while updating it is that this works Sample.One and Sample.Two but when it is Sample.App.One and Sample.App.Two it does not.

Doing some more digging into it and it appears that this may be the preferred syntax and it currently does get through the current checks.

defmodule Sample.App do
  @moduledoc false

  alias Sample.{App.One, App.Two}  # <----

  def foo do
    {One.one, Two.two}
  end
end

Looks good.
