About redirect_to in form_with

at first

When I was playing with the code to improve the portfolio, I found the description using form_for. Rewritten to form_with, an easy idea. .. ..

• For this content, I decided to solve the problem and write an article by referring to the following article. https://qiita.com/Ryoga_aoym/items/ac2918259744da128e86

Development environment

ruby 2.5.1p57 rails (6.0.3.1)

What happened

Create a simple input form and press create to register information

In the case of ** form_for **, implement with the following description

= form_for @target do |f|
abridgement
  = f.submit "Create"

Rewrite this and change to ** form_with ** with the following description

= form_with model: @target do |form|
abridgement
  = f.submit "Create"

However

It may be natural for people who are accustomed to writing, but the page transition (redirect_to) when submit is pressed does not work. The data is saved, but the same content propagates because you can press create many times. process of create

  def create
    @target = Target.new(target_params)
    if @target.save
      redirect_to root_path
    else
      render :new
    end
  end

Research of cause

For the time being, binding.pry → It stopped, so it works normally. save

  def create
    @target = Target.new(target_params)
    if @target.save
      binding.pry
      redirect_to root_path
    else
      render :new
    end
  end

Pattern 2, binding.pry → It stopped, but it should not stop if redirect_to is working. I guess redirect_to isn't working.

  def create
    @target = Target.new(target_params)
    if @target.save
      redirect_to root_path
      binding.pry
    else
      render :new
    end
  end

All you have to do is search on google.

result

Caused by missing option in form_with. The following is a description to make it work.

= form_with model: @target, local: true do |form|
abridgement
  = f.submit "Create"

As a cause, form_with sends form by ajax communication. When you send a form using that ajax, turbolinks is involved in the behavior of redirect_to executed by the destination controller. And it seems that it didn't work because I didn't put turbolinks.

There are two solutions, and I added local: true to disconnect ajax communication by either introducing turbolinks or disconnecting ajax communication.

At the end

The content was that I felt like I learned it at school, but when I experienced it, I forgot. .. .. Since this is my first time posting an article, I would appreciate it if you could let me know if there are any etiquette violations, misinterpretations, or improvements.

Thank you very much.
