Do a router.post request without changing the URL?

Level 73

When posting the request params go in the body of the request, not in the url. So you can just merge them like this:

const benchmarkCompare = () => {
    router.post('/analytics/account/'+currentAccount.id+'/summary', {
    ...this.$route.query,
        activeBenchmarkAccounts: activeBenchmarkAccounts,
        selectedIds: benchmarkModalSelectedAccounts.value,
        currentAccount: currentAccount,
    }, {
        only: ['activeBenchmarkAccounts'],
        onSuccess: () => {
          benchmarkModalOpen.value = false
        }
    })
  }

@Nakov It seems ...this.$route.query is not merging.

@ignaMani I don't know the context in which you are running this function my friend, I am not sure where do you have the router defined as well..

maybe this refers to something else in your context, you can try debugging console.log(this.$route) if it returns anything at all.

@Nakov I'm just using this once a button is pressed I just need to pass the activeBenchmark selectedIds currentAccount, then once selectedIds are passed into a controller activeBenchmarkAccounts gets returned filled with values. I used it this way because I can use the ``ònly``` so I only modify the prop that I need. This is executing well but I dont need to get the URL changed.

@ignaMani okay, so the only is the one that removes them from the body possibly. Try this then:

router.post('/analytics/account/'+currentAccount.id+'/summary?' + new URLSearchParams(this.$route.query).toString(), { ...

@Nakov It's like I do not have this.$route defined, this is just a method that goes into vue 3 file which sends the data into a Laravel Controller to have some accounts returned and change them once accounts are selected from a checkbox and a button is pressed. Maybe it would be easier if I used axios instead of router?

@ignaMani what about if you replace that with router.params or just $route without this. at the beginning?

@ignaMani you are defining it as $benchmarkaccounts = [] and then trying to use it benchmarkAccounts so A should be upper case.

$benchmarkAccounts = [];
