turbo-pagination VS request.js

You can find the complete code for this tutorial on Github, and you can try out a “production” version of the application on Heroku.

For some extra help with crsf tokens. I would recommend the request.js library in the rails GitHub. https://github.com/rails/request.js

We will now connect our toolbar's table button to the server-side controller action we have just written. To do this, we first need to bring Rails' request.js library into the project. This library will help us administer post requests from the client, including proper CSRF-tokens, etc.:

Then, you will need to use fetch or other libs like rails/request.js (https://github.com/rails/request.js) to send a patch request with formData to your model's update path (usually something like /fruits), this is to update your model data. If you are using scaffolded controller, you should have respond_to js configured for you by default. If not, remember to add respond_to :js to your controller, and list data attributes you wanted to return from the server.

Stimulus and request.js should get you about 90% of the way for your example

One way to work around this is described in Dale’s article. In it, a Stimulus controller and request.js are used to insert a Turbo Stream header into GET requests, getting Turbo to see the request as a Turbo Stream request despite not originating from a form submission.

The Rails.ajax function comes from the @rails/ujs package, which isn't Turbo-aware. You should be using @rails/request.js instead, which can execute Turbo Stream commands:

It's not part of Hotwire, but supplemental for when you want to make AJAX requests from Stimulus or whatever. https://github.com/rails/request.js

So with our applications we've started using request.js to make JS based requests to the applications, it's super handy and very easy to use.

request.js is a minimalistic JavaScript pacakge that is set to replace Rails UJS in the near future. We will be using it to fetch new pages from the server. Let's install the package

First, we will add the necessary NPM packages. We will use @github/webauthn-json as a nice wrapper for the WebAuthn API and @rails/request.js for easier requests to the backend (with built-in Turbo Stream support).
