Passing parameters into views
In this section, we will cover the initial setup of fusing two modules to create a to-do item and store it through a view. To do this, we will have to pass in the title of the to-do item into our create view that creates a to-do item. We can pass data into a view using the following routes:
- URL: Data and parameters can be passed inside the URL of the request. This is generally used in simple cases as it is easy to implement.
- body: Data can be stored under different fields in the request body. This is used for more complex data structures and bigger payloads.
- header: Data can be stored under different fields in the request header. This is used to store metadata about the request being sent. We also store the authentication data of the request in the header.
We will cover all these approaches throughout our project, but for now, we will pass our data using the URL method as this is the easiest introduction method. First...
