When use lucky with htmx, i found my project use context.request.query_params a lot, do we consider add a view helper method?

Most use context.request.query_params with hx-push-url.

e.g. you have a search input, and many others 5, 6 input for others query condition.if you want include those query param into search tag, you have to render the following query param(param1,param2,param3) correctly into page to make following code work correct.

input(
      type: "search",
	  "hx-target": "#main",
	  "hx-select": "#main",
       ...
	   
	   "hx-include": "[name1='param1'],[name='param2],[name='param3']"
    )

div id: "main" do
  ...
  input type: "hidden", name: "param1", value: context.request.query_params["param1"]?.to_s
  input type: "hidden", name: "param2", value: context.request.query_params["param2"]?.to_s
  input type: "hidden", name: "param3", value: context.request.query_params["param3"]?.to_s
  ...
end

Thanks

Using context.request.query_params directly isn't really safe since there's no sanitization happening, and you're not guaranteed to get the proper type you're looking for. In this case you'd really want to take advantage of using expose https://luckyframework.org/guides/frontend/rendering-html#example-using-needs-and-expose

That way you can set your params with type-safety like param param1 : Int32. For your case, if you just need the escape hatch, then I'd suggest making a helper method in your MainLayout or in a mixin that can be included in your pages and components.
