Cocoon

• Rails nested form (new gem with Stimulus)
  2 projects | dev.to | 18 Jun 2023

  Nested forms are forms that handle nested models and attributes in one form; e.g. a project with its tasks or an invoice with its line items. Before Rails 6, Cocoon is a good choice for creating dynamic nested forms. But Cocoon needs jQuery to work well, it's a very old library on modern-day frontend frameworks. When Stimulus is came out, Rails devs is suggested to use Stimulus as Javascript library in their projects. So, I created a gem for handling dynamic nested forms with Stimulus JS.

• Is there an easy gem or workflow to manage form fields for `has_many`?

  On a previous project I used Cocoon which makes it simple to add a button that adds an additional set of fields for a nested object.

• I'm looking for a solution or strategies for viewing and managing related records in a single view

  You can use the Cocoon gem to have nested stuff that can be all posted back at once and update multiple related tables. Necessary setup includes on the models having appropriate accepts_nested_attributes_for entries for the various has_many associations that would link to your sub-forms.

• Dynamic nested forms with Turbo

  Prior to the advent of Turbo and Stimulus, my go-to for creating dynamic nested forms was Cocoon which has been around a while and uses jQuery. Tried and true.

• Can the Cocoon Gem do this ?
  1 project | /r/rails | 18 Jan 2022

  The Cocoon Gem does something similar, it allows to easily add associated resources to an object. But can it allow creation of other object within the form of another object ?

• How can I append a copy of existing form field on a button click but with incrementing counter?

  For dynamic forms my usual go-to is Cocoon. https://github.com/nathanvda/cocoon

• Use a nested dynamic form with a has_many :through association in Rails.
  2 projects | dev.to | 17 Jan 2021

  To add and remove recipe ingredients, we're going to use my favorite gem for handling this. The gem is called cocoon. Cocoon defines two helper methods, link_to_add_association and link_to_remove_association, these are aptly named because what they do is provide links that, when clicked, will either build a new association and create the appropriate fields or will create a link with the ability to mark an association for deletion.
