RestfulizerJs

_Native POST support and hidden "method" input support for PUT/DELETE

A simple jQuery plugin for changing the http method (POST/PUT/DELETE) of a simple html link or button.

How to use

1: Add the jquery.restfulizer.js file into your project including jQuery.

  <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.restfulizer.js"></script>

2: Use the jQuery method restfulizer() on any link you want to customize the method :

<a href="/user/3" data-method="DELETE" class="rest">link</a>

$(".rest").restfulizer();

Advanced usage

You can also POST links with parameters (and also automatically setup the POST method) :

<a href="/user/create?name=John&age=18&[email protected]" class="rest-post">link</a>

$(".rest-post").restfulizer({
        parse: true,
        method: "POST"
});

Full options usage

$(".rest").restfulizer({
        parse: true, // Parse the URL parameters (allow to send them to POST)
        method: "PUT", // The method (POST is native but PUT and DELETE will be simulated with a hidden input called "_method", this solution is handled by many PHP frameworks)
        target: "example.html?specified=yes" // The target (usefull for making non link clickable)
});

restfulizerjs's Issues

Add to Bower (without #lastest)

Hey

I wanted to pull this package in via Bower but I can't find it in the repository. Could you add it please?

Fragment support was dropped with last commit

With the last commit, if the restfulized URL contains a fragment (#), it will remain appended to the last parameter.

For example, the URL script.php?page=1&val=1#frag will be converted to a form having <input type="hidden" value="1#frag" name="val">.

Add package to npm repository

Your package is not yet available in npmjs.org. It would be nice if you could add it there so people don't have to use npm as well as bower to manage their dependencies :-)
