Is it possible to pass a JSON body along with hx-post through an attribute?

As per title, is it possible to pass a JSON body along with hx-post through an attribute? Or do I have to make it a form to pass data?

Solution

  • Yes, with the official json-enc extension, which "encodes parameters in JSON format instead of url format."

    Usage

    <div hx-post='/test' hx-ext='json-enc'>click me</div>
