Describe the bug
After 0.12.0, Form is deprecated; users are supposed to convert to the plain live_view functional component .form. However, .form does not convert the surface event; so it is a bit awkward now to use forms.
Edit: Oops, I should have filed the issue against surface, not surface_form_helpers
How to reproduce it
<.form :on-submit={@submit} ...>
does not work. @submit is a Surface event, not a string, so it cannot serialize to HTML.
<.form :on-submit={@submit.name} ...>
does not work either; the :on-submit is passed through to html without conversion.
I have to do this:
<.form phx-submit={@submit.name} ...>
Which is less than optimal. BTW: the :if={} directive works for .form
I like functional components, they can be considered as a light weight version of components (no hooks, no css...). However, their usage need to be normalized with module components and html tags to avoid confusion for developers.
Your Environment
Surface: v0.12.0
LiveView: v0.20.12
Elixir: v1.15
