Hello! I'm messing around with HTMX with Rust w/ Axum as a backend, and I am struggling a bit with how to pass input field values into the URIs for gets/posts. I have this modified version of the active search example
Copy code
html
<input class="form-control" 
       name="search" 
       placeholder="Begin Typing To Search Users..." 
       hx-get="/search/:name" 
       hx-include="[name='search']"
       hx-trigger="keyup changed delay:500ms" 
       hx-target="#search-results" 
       >
<div id="search-results"></div>
and this is my handler and main function setting up the axum server
Copy code
rust
async fn get_profile(Path(profile_name): Path<String>) -> Html<String> {
    let orders_example = vec![
        Item {
            id: 1,
            name: "Article banana".into(),
        },
        Item {
            id: 2,
            name: "Article apple".into(),
        },
    ];

    let profile_example = Profile {
        full_name: profile_name,
        items: orders_example,
    };

    let r = render!(PROFILE_TEMPLATE, profile => profile_example);
    Html(r)
}
//....
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let app = Router::new()
        .route(
            "/",
            get(home),
        )
        .route(
            "/search/:name",
            get(get_profile).post(get_profile),
        );

    axum::Server::bind(&"0.0.0.0:3000".parse().unwrap())
        .serve(app.into_make_service())
        .await
        .unwrap();
}
In its current state, it will show the name as ":Name". I know if I manually edit the path of the request to e.g. /search/joe the name will show up as Joe, but I struggle to see how I can feed the typed value from the input box to the URI.
