    although no, it is processed, since you get templated action in the url, it's just the model that is missing
  • r
    does the empty query happens when you send the same form twice? Or when editing form too?
  • b
    no, when the second query after boosted goto link is firing, Alpine part works OK, as I see in dev tools. So I guess it's on the htmx side
  • h
    When Deniz says htmx doesn't support modifying the url he means with something like hx-vals
  • h
    I'm pretty sure you can use alpine to modify the hx attributes
  • h
    I would take that approach and bind :hx-post to your url
  • h
    so forgo boosting and do like
  • h
    Copy code
    html
<form x-data=...
      :hx-post="`...`">
  • h
    where did the essays link on www go
  • b
    have tried this before, but the result was the same
  • b
    finally I've found out the working way to achieve what I want

    I wanted to send https://htmx.org/essays/hypermedia-driven-applications/ to someone and couldn't find it
  • h
    is it possible to suppress the error you get when hx-swap-oob='true' but there is no corresponding div currently on the page? im returning an oob every time even if it isnt being used on the page
  • h
    decided to comment it out of the source, doesnt seem to affect anything else 😆

    Hi, is htmx good to be used on a chat app? I want to get websocket data from server on every page? Should I succumb to SPA here?
  • r
    Yes htmx would be a very good choice.
  • r
  • r
    and
  • c
    when changing page we will disconnect and reconnect to the ws server then? Or is it better to preserve the ws connection?
  • t
    Depends on what you mean by "changing page"
  • t
    htmx lets you have SPA-like behavior with swapping content asynchronously. You wouldn't necessarily ever "leave" the page.
  • c
    Very nice, how about mapping lib like mapbox. I only have experience using it with React. Seems like i must control it on vanilla js?
  • t
    client-side interaction is out of scope for htmx. You can probably get hyperscript to work with mapbox, but I don't know how practical that'll be.
  • r
    So you have a few options for client side interactions 1. Yes vanilla JS, htmx has a little helper API for common operations: This is a solid path to go. 2. is honestly amazing but the syntax can be very offputting to people not used to ruby/applescript/hypercard, but integrates super nice with htmx. 3. Some alternative lib like or or .
  • r
    If you're really really familiar with React (Not just "youtube tutorial familiar") you could consider a totally in-browser preact or something maybe. But you may run into issues with htmx clashing with whatever virtual dom, it's just easier to use one of the above.

    a fantastic article . MUST read https://grugbrain.dev/?s=09
  • c
    Thankyou for the answers @refined-waiter-90422 & @tall-dinner-62086 Since my aim is to learn new tech, i guess i will try solid to control map, otherwise will try to learn htmx as much as possible 😄

    Hi, do I find anyone with good taste in html form markup here? I have to talk to a JSON API with of a certain large ecommerce software to bulk-update the shopping cart. I wanna do it in a single HTML form. The API expects objects in an array in an object, something like
    Copy code
    {
  "items": [
    {
      "id": "12345",
      "qty": 10
    },
    {
      "id": "67890",
      "qty": 15
    }
  ]
}
    htmx and the json encoder extension doesn't natively handle arrays as far a I can see. What would be a good structure for the form? Fieldsets? Making the name attribute something like "items[12345][qty]"?
