Package: effect
Module: SchemaGetter

SchemaGetter.encodeFormData

Encodes a nested object into a FormData instance using bracket-path notation.

When to use

Use when you need a schema getter to serialize structured data to FormData for HTTP requests.

Details

The getter is pure and never fails. It flattens nested objects or arrays into bracket-path keys such as user[name] and items[0]. Non-object inputs produce an empty FormData.

Example (Encoding to FormData)

import { SchemaGetter } from "effect"

const encode = SchemaGetter.encodeFormData()
// Getter<FormData, unknown>

See

• decodeFormData for the corresponding decoder
• collectBracketPathEntries for the underlying flattener
• encodeURLSearchParams for the URLSearchParams variant

Signature

declare const encodeFormData: () => Getter<FormData, unknown>
