Ajax PUT for submit

[gbouteiller]

Hi,
First of all, I'd like to thank you for this great library.
I'd like to know if it is possible to let people use 'submit' with a 'PUT' verb (it seems like 'POST' is hardcoded). In fact, I want to update all my editable fields at once clicking on an 'update' button. Currently, I'm using your example for creating a new record but with the following url : /records/pk that I'd lijke to be associated with 'PUT'. Is it the right way to do it?
Thanks

hi,
just checked - yes, for submit api method POST is hardcoded. I will definetly change it to be an option in next release.
As local solution you can use getValue method to collect data from editables and submit them via ajax.
(see how it done here https://github.com/vitalets/x-editable/blob/master/src/element/editable-element.js#L418)

For individual submit it is already done in 1.1.1, have a look on #22

Thank you.

What a quick answer! 👍
I've modified your code to use ajaxOptions in 'submit' : here what I've done :

(line 1425) case 'submit':  //collects value, validate and submit to server for creating new record
                var config = arguments[1] || {},
                $elems = this,
                errors = this.editable('validate'),
                values, ajaxOptions; // added var ajaxOptions

                if(typeof config.error !== 'function') {
                    config.error = function() {};
                } 

                if($.isEmptyObject(errors)) {
                    values = this.editable('getValue'); 
                    if(config.data) {
                        $.extend(values, config.data);
                    }
                    ajaxOptions = $.extend({ //extending ajax options with config.ajaxOptions
                        url     : config.url,
                        data    : values,
                        type    : 'POST',
                        dataType: 'json'
                    }, config.ajaxOptions); 
                    $.ajax(ajaxOptions).success(function(response) {
