Fixed up `serializeArray()` and added multiple support #631

twolfson · 2015-01-19T23:43:48Z

Fixes #235

PR #235 has been open for a while and stagnated. This PR revives adding serializeArray() support and establishes a foundation for other form methods like serialize (#69). In this PR:

Fixed up merge conflicts from Implement .serializeArray() #235
Fixed up broken implementation due to time difference
Added support for multiple selected items (a la jQuery) as requested in Implement .serializeArray() #235
Various style changes to be more consistent with the rest of the repo

@twolfson Thanks for picking this up from @jlep!

Some notes:

Please be more generous with white space.
It's nice to point to sources, but that can be part of the commit message. While a single source as part of a comment is still fine, you've overdone it a bit.
Please add comments instead regarding the function of code. Keep in mind that the code needs to be maintained indefinitely once this pull request is merged, and you might not be around to explain it.
Please remove dead code (instead of commenting it out).

lib/api/serialize.js

+      var $elem = Cheerio(elem);
+      var name = $elem.attr('name');
+      var val = $elem.val();
+      return val == null ?


This would be much more readable in an if / else block.

That was directly from jQuery. I will break it up.

twolfson · 2015-01-24T21:10:44Z

Have you considered adding jscs to enforce whitespace? I have found it very useful on all of my projects (usually no back and forth about stylistic issues).

http://jscs.info/rules.html

I prefer to leave sources inline since the references to the original code can fade away as more touches occur and git blame erodes. However, I will respect your request.

Most of this code is copy/paste from jQuery but I will do my best to document it.

As for the inline dead code, that was also inline from jQuery but I will make a comment note instead.

Could you rename the new source file to "forms.js"? This matches jQuery's documented category scheme and will make a logical home for the serializeArray function in the future.

Sure thing. This was originally named api.serialize.js by @jlep so I tried to keep it as consistent as possible.

twolfson · 2015-01-24T21:59:12Z

Alright, I have renamed the file so unfortunately most of the inline comments have gone away. I have addressed all of them.

twolfson · 2015-01-24T22:01:47Z

I have re-pushed the branch because Travis CI choked on node@0.11 for some reason.

twolfson · 2015-01-24T22:03:41Z

Ah, never mind it isn't me. It looks like master is having a build error.

fb55 · 2015-02-02T23:46:50Z

At this point I would be okay with merging this.

The code would be much simpler when using the :matches selector, but that's something I'll need to implement.

twolfson · 2015-02-02T23:56:49Z

Sweet, I see that master has been patched. I am going to wiggle my PR build.

Alright, the PR has been wiggled and Travis CI is now green.

jugglinmike · 2015-03-01T03:01:23Z

I think this is almost there; it's just missing one piece of functionality that I can see. From the jQuery docs:

This method can act on a jQuery object that has selected individual form controls, such as <input>, <textarea>, and <select>.

That means before we land this, the patch should be updated to pass a test like:

+       it('() :', function() {
+         expect($('#nested input').serializeArray()).to.eql([
+            { name: 'fruit', value: 'Apple' },
+            { name: 'vegetable', value: 'Carrot' }
+          ]);
+       });

@twolfson It's been a while since anybody gave you feedback on this. If you'd moved on to bigger and better things, just let me know and I'll be happy to finish this up for ya

twolfson · 2015-03-01T03:05:14Z

Sure thing. I have a bit of time to kill before heading out tonight. I will take a shot at those new tests and comment when this PR is updated.

jugglinmike · 2015-03-01T03:13:18Z

That's some stick-to-itiveness for you! Thanks :)

twolfson · 2015-03-01T03:39:32Z

Alright, I have added a new test and fix. I also saw that the tests are very unclear about what results should be. I have refactored them to be much more about asserting deep equals of arrays/objects to make the return value more obvious.

Could you move this method call to the previous line for visual consistency in the chain?

Whoops, sure thing

Woot, no problem. Glad to see it got landed. There was also the follow-up PR #632 which I will update in a bit to have a much cleaner git history.
