[AutoComplete] Manually using the Stimulus Controller to pass extra Options to the Autocompleter

[toxicity1985]

Hello,

I used the stimulus controller to pass some extra data to my autocompleter but i was having issue that my data was not well formatted.
I have to make some extra code to generate the checksum.
So i want to contribute and make something for that but i don't know what's the good way to do that.
I think i have two solutions for that,

• Create a ux_autocomplete_path function in twig to make the stuff
• Create a filter to generate the array with the checksum ?
  If you have some other and better solution, say it !

If you need to pass extra data, you need to code your own endpoint (some Controller or Kernel EventListener) and handle yourself the hashing / checking of the values

To use the extra_options feature, as it is a FormType construct, your form must be rendered with the form system.
