I've been trying to find the correct answer for my problem I know that the question has been asked before here and actually many other places, but no answers I found could suit my problem.
The vue component
FooterNewsletter.vue
<template>
<div class="lg:w-2/4 md:w-1/2 w-full px-8 border-l-2">
<p class="font-bold text-3xl">
Don't want to miss the latest cryptocurrency news?
</p>
<p class="py-3 text-lg">
Get the latest news and updates by subscribing to our free
newsletter 📰
</p>
<form @submit.prevent="subscribeToNewsletter">
<div class="flex flex-col">
<div class="flex">
<input
v-model="form.email"
type="text"
name="post_title"
class="
border-primary
focus:border-primary
focus:ring-offset-transparent
focus:ring-transparent
"
id="exampleFormControlInput1"
placeholder="Your E-mail"
/>
<input
type="submit"
value="Subscribe"
:disabled="form.processing"
class="px-5 py-2 bg-primary text-white cursor-pointer"
/>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
props: [],
components: {
},
data() {
return {
form: this.$inertia.form({
email: "",
}),
};
},
methods: {
subscribeToNewsletter() {
this.form
.transform((data) => ({
...data,
// remember: this.form.remember ? "on" : "",
}))
.post(this.route("newsletter.store"), {
onSuccess: (data) => {
console.log("data", data);
},
onError: (data) => {
console.log("data", data);
},
});
},
},
};
</script>
The controller
NewsletterController.php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Http\Requests\NewsletterStoreRequest;
use App\Models\Newsletter;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Redirect;
class NewsletterController extends Controller
{
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function index()
{
//
}
/**
* Show the form for creating a new resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function create()
{
}
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function store(NewsletterStoreRequest $request)
{
return response()->json([
'message' => 'suss',
]);
}
/**
* Display the specified resource.
*
* @param int $id
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function show($id)
{
//
}
/**
* Show the form for editing the specified resource.
*
* @param int $id
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function edit($id)
{
//
}
/**
* Update the specified resource in storage.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @param int $id
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
//
}
/**
* Remove the specified resource from storage.
*
* @param int $id
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function destroy($id)
{
//
}
}
The request file
NewsletterStoreRequest.php
namespace App\Http\Requests;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest;
class NewsletterStoreRequest extends FormRequest
{
/**
* Determine if the user is authorized to make this request.
*
* @return bool
*/
public function authorize()
{
return true;
}
/**
* Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
*
* @return array
*/
public function rules()
{
return [
'email' => ['required', 'max:150', 'email'],
];
}
}
The Route
web.php
Route::post('/newsletter', [
NewsletterController::class,
'store',
])->name('newsletter.store');
In the sample above i return a json object, which is not accepted and gives me this error
I have tried following the inertia documentation about responses here I think the correct answer is to be found there, I have not been able to solve it on my own
I have also looked into inertia Jetstream docs without any luck here
I don't want to return a new view, I actually want it to work as an ajax request I guess where a call-back is either giving me the error or success without reloading the page or anything like that.
I see that many people have this problem, does anyone know whats going wrong and what i have to return in the controller?
For me i had to change the controller to this:
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Inertia\Inertia;
use App\Models\Newsletter;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Redirect;
use App\Http\Requests\NewsletterStoreRequest;
class NewsletterController extends Controller
{
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function index()
{
//
}
/**
* Show the form for creating a new resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function create()
{
}
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function store(NewsletterStoreRequest $request)
{
Newsletter::create([
'email' => $request->email
]);
return back()->with('flash', [
'message' => 'success',
]);
}
/**
* Display the specified resource.
*
* @param int $id
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function show($id)
{
//
}
/**
* Show the form for editing the specified resource.
*
* @param int $id
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function edit($id)
{
//
}
/**
* Update the specified resource in storage.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @param int $id
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function update(Request $request, $id)
{
//
}
/**
* Remove the specified resource from storage.
*
* @param int $id
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function destroy($id)
{
//
}
}
What you should note here is this part:
return back()->with('flash', [
'message' => 'success',
]);
I found a sample where my problem was achieved with the help from a friend of mine in: vendor/laravel/jetstream/src/Http/Controllers/Inertia/ApiTokenController.php
Here they return with a flash message like my example above, the message key will be in props->components->flash->message
It won't work as I thought like ajax, because it uses Vue routes so the page will reload on submit.
I hope someone will find this useful.
Also if you get a console error because you use data in a vue component you have to make a check on the wrapper to check if the data is null like so:
<ul
v-if="assets != null"
class="
marketcap-rows
border-l border-r border-gray-200
flex flex-col
"
>
<li
v-for="asset in $props.assets.data"
v-bind:key="asset"
class="
bg-white
grid
gap-4
border-t border-gray-200
"
>
</li>
</ul>
This is the check I'm talking about: v-if="assets != null"
