Dear #Rust#RustLang folks doing #Axum
What's your preferred way of having a single handler for multiple form submission types?
That is, let's say I have a settings page, and there's different "sections" to the settings, which all get handled differently, but I want the Form to get deserialized per usual?
Unfortunately, serde_html_form doesn't support deserializing enums for something like this? At least not out of the box?
updating all sections in 1 single request sounds to me (im guessing from here onward), you are making sure the request transaction to be ACID, maybe??? even though each section to the settings are backed by different db tables... idk
Did you try adding `#[serde(tag = "type")]` to the enum? That way, serde stores the discriminator tag inside of the variant instead of wrapping it, which should work better for "flat" formats like HTML forms.
For example (using axum::Form, which uses serde_urlencoded): https://gist.github.com/nightkr/f07e38a321aae8278ccc1e07bd1bc538
