Can't parse and store checkboxes entries in an array

[elhmn]

I would like to parse checkboxes entries and store them in an array.

I currently have an issue form containing this snippet 👇

  - type: checkboxes
    id: fav_frameworks
    attributes:
      label:  What are your favourite frameworks ?
      options:
        - label: React.js
        - label: jQuery
        - label: Express
        - label: Angular
        - label: Vue.js
        - label: ASP.NET Core
        - label: Flask
        - label: ASP.NET
        - label: Django
        - label: Spring
        - label: Angular.js
        - label: Laravel
        - label: Ruby on Rails
        - label: Gatsby
        - label: FastAPI
        - label: Symfony
        - label: Svelte
        - label: Drupal

And would like the output to be similar to:

{
    "fav_frameworks": ["Laravel", "Svelte"]
}

The current behaviour would produces this:

 {
    "laravel": true,
    "svelte": true,
 }

I submitted #21 to resolve this issue. I am working on a project that needed it, and I thought it might be useful to add this feature here as well, instead of keeping it in my fork only.

I tend to agree that having an array which contains all selected values is easier to work with. However I would like to hear @gr2m thoughts on this change given his API design experience.

Agree, the new behavior is much nicer, I'd release a new breaking version.

As a reminder, use squash & merge, then in the commit body, add

BREAKING CHANGE: ...

And replace ... with a description of the changed behavior. You can add line breaks, but the description should start on the same line as BREAKING CHANGE:

Alright, I will take care of it 🙇‍♂️
