I don't think that's possible.
Elm is a static language and what you seam to want is dynamic behavior.
The practical way to solve this is to ferry type information and use that
type information to generate the dynamic behavior.
In Elm, this is done with the help of Json.Decode/Json.Encode
This way, you can take a concrete Elm type, convert it to a generic type
like Value or String, do something dynamic based on the info you encode in
this generic type, get a generic result back and convert the result back
into some concrete Elm type.
so you can have something like:
doSomethingDynamic : a -> (a -> Value) -> Decoder b -> b
doSomethingDynamic payload encoder decoder =
...
Have you seen how I have approached the issue in the exploration bellow?
