In my Spring application I use general page templates within which I load fragments dynamically depending on need. For the contact page I load the form as a fragment into a page template. Trying to bind an object to the form via a fragment directly (as so: th:object="${formdata}
) does not work since as far as I understood Spring renames things under the hood (source: https://github.com/thymeleaf/thymeleaf/issues/583).
Following that lead I tried th:object="${__${formdata}__}
but that leads to a SpelParseException I can dont't seem to find any hints for how to deal with in the very specific context.
The page the fragment is loaded into looks like this;
<html xmlns:th="https://www.thymeleaf.org" lang="en">
<head th:replace="fragments/contact_fragments :: head_contact_page">
<title>Contact</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="top_container">
<div class="index_grid_container">
<div th:replace="fragments/layout_fragments :: header_public"></div>
<div th:replace="fragments/contact_fragments :: contact_page"></div>
<div th:replace="fragments/layout_fragments :: footer_public"></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The relevant parts of the fragment like this;
<div th:fragment="contact_page" class="contacts" id="contact_page">
<form id="contactForm" th:action="@{/site/submit-contact-form}" th:object="${__${formdata}__}" method="post">
<?-- a number of form fields -->
</form>
</div>
The GET part of the controller;
@GetMapping(value = "/site/contact-mydogspies")
public String getContactPage(Model model) {
model.addAttribute("title_text", "some site text");
model.addAttribute("formdata", new FormContactData());
return "contact";
}
And finally the really simple command object I am trying to bind;
@Getter
@Setter
@NoArgsConstructor
public class FormContactData {
private String firstname;
private String lastname;
private String email;
private String message;
}
When simply calling the form page (/site/contact-mydogspies) I get the following errors;
2021-01-21 16:32:39,993 INFO [http-nio-8087-exec-1] com.mydogspies.site.controllers.ContactController: --> Called contact.html
