FormData

This is a collection of functions for working with FormData objects.

Serialize

The serializeFormData function serializes an object into a FormData object.

import { serializeFormData } from '@aracna/core';

const person = {
  age: 20,
  features: {
    eyes: 'Brown',
    height: 175
  },
  name: 'John',
  picture: new Blob([])
};

const data = serializeFormData(person);

// will log "20"
console.log(data.get('age'));

// will log "{ "eyes": "Brown", "height": 175 }"
console.log(data.get('features'));

// will log "John"
console.log(data.get('name'));

// will log Blob
console.log(data.get('picture'));

Deserialize

The deserializeFormData function deserializes a FormData object into an object.

import { deserializeFormData } from '@aracna/core';

const data = new FormData();

data.append('age', '20');
data.append('features', JSON.stringify({ eyes: 'Brown', height: 175 }));
data.append('name', 'John');
data.append('picture', new Blob([]));

// will log { age: 20, features: { eyes: "Brown", height: 175 }, name: "John", picture: Blob }
console.log(deserializeFormData(data));
