This Thursday at 9:30 AM Pacific I'm gonna take a crack at using Fly Machines as a sandbox for untrusted Babashka scripts. I've never touched Fly before so hopefully we don't run into any pitfalls/timesinks 🙂 .

I think one of the Biff livestreams adds a web form in… can anyone remember which one it was (if I’m right)?

Jacob O'Bryant21:09:10

This one I'm guessing: https://biffweb.com/p/bpp-3/ But maybe this one: https://biffweb.com/p/biff-coding-password-auth/

that’s the one! thx!

Is there a way to see what the`params` are within this function when a form is submitted from the frontend?

(defn set-bar [{:keys [session params] :as req}]
  (biff/submit-tx req
                  [{:db/op :update
                    :db/doc-type :user
                    :xt/id (:uid session)
                    :user/bar (:bar params)}])
  (biff/render (bar-form {:value (:bar params)})))

Jacob O'Bryant23:09:18

Yep, two ways I commonly do it: • add a (prn params) (or (biff/pprint params)) right before the submit-tx • add a (def params* params) right before the submit-tx, then inspect params* from the repl
