Greetings,
I ran into a specific use case where a single page application was submitting a form to a REST API without a submit button via an HTTP PATCH method. I had read somewhere (probably StackOverflow) that handleRequest()
handles partial updates since Symfony 2.x, but since there wasn't a submit button, handleRequest()
wouldn't submit the form.
Long story short, I wasn't able to find documentation regarding a solution until I saw the API for the submit()
function with the optional $clearMissing
parameter. I'm willing to submit a PR with this use case highlighting the ability to do partial updates via the submit()
function if it sounds useful to anyone else.
