First of all, do we want to figure out forms before v1.0 ?
Second of all, how much magic do we want ?
I'm sure there's other stuff, but that's the questions I had.
First of all, do we want to figure out forms before v1.0?
Absolutely!
Should it be a nested signal under the form's namespace?
Certainly!
I wondered if there is an ability to scope $post body here: https://github.com/starfederation/datastar/discussions/302 I think this issue is entirely related. Right now there is too much magic. JSON encoding a step away from hypermedia. Should it perhaps be an extension, with form data being the default? Seem sensible to me.
Also, using <input>
and such without <form>
tag is technically incorrectly formed HTML - it gets picked on by linters. I suggest that data submission should be handled via forms, not the global store of everything.

I ask the question because it could very well be a separate plugin that does not affect the datastar core, so released on a separate occasion. Though stuff like validation of data-bind would occasion changes to other plugins.

I highly doubt @delaneyj is going to want to change the default format of post requests data in datastar, but the ability to use a different encoding for the data could be very useful. I know I've had a datastar project that used an external api that only accepted formdata encoded images and having to reparse the file as formdata was annoying.
Figure out working with forms in Datastar (aka Delboy’s Magnum Opus).
