    Or I could use HTMX events via response headers.
  • e
    Not gonna fight you on that, I've seen these solutions work as well and great that it works for you! Just saying that I personally wouldn't consider them when I'm asked to "build a mobile app" in most circumstances for the reasons mentioned above and because going native is not that much more difficult or expensive (YMMV on that)

    Am trying to submit a form via GET when any of the inputs change. I've got htmx to make the request but I can't get any of the values of the form inputs to be included in the GET request, am I missing something?
    Copy code
    <form autocomplete="off" hx-get="{% url 'listings:search' %}" hx-params="*" hx-target="#results-list" hx-select="#results-list"
      hx-indicator="#results-list" hx-swap="outerHTML settle:1s" hx-trigger="change">

    I'm trying out htmx atm and am comparing it with rails/hotwire ,and I'm new to both. I'm trying to implement click to edit as described https://htmx.org/examples/click-to-edit/. I'm using htmx's 
    htmx:configRequest
    as described here https://htmx.org/docs/#config_request_with_events to set a "Content-Type" and "X-CSRF-Token" header before the AJAX request is sent to the server. This event is firing and setting the headers correctly when page loaded initially, but it isn't firing subsequently when clicking on the "submit" button (for example) that is in the html that is returned from the server. Is there a recommended way to resolve this? Apologies if this is a basic question.
  • m
    Where are you adding the code that sets the token?
  • m
    If that’s set it p globally you should be good
  • m
    Set up
  • b
    It's not global, but rather just on the page with the initial and upated content. I'll make it global per your recommendation.
  • b
    Setting global didn't work. I'm going to try and simplify things a bit. I'm adding this to an existing application along side rails/hotwire (as I'm experimenting) and perhaps there's some interaction going on that I'm not aware of.
  • m
    Can you show me how you are adding the code? I know rails pretty well. Also, is turbolinks in play?
  • b
    Thanks. Yes, let me figure out a way to share it. I don't think it's at play. I attempted to disable it.
  • b
    Here's a gist that contains (as far as I can tell) all the relevant code. https://gist.github.com/tdouce/7cd6fe20012828dedeff7eaec22614e6 . I add some comments describing why I'm doing somethings and noted 
    PROBLEM
    where I think there's an issue.
  • m
    OK, that looks right
  • m
    I might put the javascript in application.js if you have one
  • b
    I tried that previously.
  • m
    If htmx is triggering requests, it seems like that has to be called
  • b
    I agree. I'm obviously missing something. I'll look in more detail. Thank you for helping.
  • b
    Ok. I think I figured it out. The form is beiing submitted as a standard html form submission and not via htmx. I'm not entirely sure why, but I believe it's because the 
    action
    html attribute is set and/or maybe some other attribute or hidden input generated by the Rails form helper. Either way it is overriding/superceding the htmx request. I believe this because I manually created the form html without using the Rails form helpers and it worked. I would like to use the standard Rails form helpers, but I might have to build a custom one. Are there any suggestions on the best approach?
  • b
    I thought I was overriding the 
    action
    html attribute in the Rails form helper, but I wasn't.
  • m
    there is a way to pass custom html attributes into the standard form helpers
  • m
    I haven't looked at it in a while, but I know that's the case
  • b
    Yes, you are correct. I need to look at the form helper documentation and figure out how to override the guilty attributes.
  • b
    Once I figure it out, I'll report back. I'm sure this can't be a new issue with htmx + rails integration.

    Anyone ever tried using web socket extension in spring boot?
  • s
    We don’t need sockJS in order to make it work right?
  • m
    shouldn't need any additional front end libraries
  • s
    I’m going to try it soon to see if it works
