Hey all!
I want to save some sort of user settings into the session (cookie) from within a LiveView. I’ve created a form that submits the corresponding data to a Phoenix.Controller.
The form in the LiveView looks like this:
<.form :let={f} for={:data} action="/controller_route">
...
</.form>
The controller looks like this:
def update(conn, %{} = params) do
conn
|> put_session(:test, "hello world")
|> send_resp(200, "Session updated")
end
Is there a way to prevent the LiveView from disconnecting when submitting the form? The controller should save the data in the session, but I do not want to get redirected. I’ve created the controller to interact with the session only.
Is there another way to save data into the session from within a LiveView without getting redirected?
It is not an option to save the data in local storage, because then I will not have access to it on initial load.
Thank you!
