create a function to accept form entries in typescript

To create a function to accept form entries in Typescript, you can use event listeners to listen to the submit event of the form. Once the form is submitted, you can retrieve the values of the form elements and use them in your function. Here is an example code block to get you started:


index.ts
// First, retrieve the form element from the DOM
const myForm = document.querySelector('#my-form-id') as HTMLFormElement;

// Next, add an event listener to the form to listen for submissions
myForm.addEventListener('submit', (event: Event) => {
  // Prevent the default form submission behavior
  event.preventDefault();

  // Retrieve the value of the form elements
  const input1 = (document.querySelector('#input1') as HTMLInputElement).value;
  const input2 = (document.querySelector('#input2') as HTMLInputElement).value;

  // Call your function with the form input values
  yourFunction(input1, input2);
});

// Finally, define your function to accept the form input values
function yourFunction(input1: string, input2: string): void {
  // Use the input values to perform some action
  console.log(`Input 1: ${input1}, Input 2: ${input2}`);
}

In the above code block, the querySelector() method is used to retrieve the form element and its input elements from the DOM. Then, an event listener is added to the form to listen for submissions. When the form is submitted, the listener captures the event and retrieves the input values using the value property of the input elements. Finally, the yourFunction() function is called with the input values as arguments.
