```js
// @noErrors
import { applyAction, deserialize, enhance } from '$app/forms';
```

## applyAction

Updates the `form` property of the current page with the given data and updates `page.status`.
In case of an error, it renders the nearest error page. In case of a redirect, it navigates to
the redirect location.

<div class="ts-block">

```dts
function applyAction<
	Success extends Record<string, unknown> | undefined,
	Failure extends Record<string, unknown> | undefined
>(
	result: import('@sveltejs/kit').ActionResult<
		Success,
		Failure
	>
): Promise<void>;
```

</div>



## deserialize

Use this function to deserialize the response from a form submission.
Usage:

```js
// @errors: 7031
import { deserialize } from '$app/forms';

async function handleSubmit(event) {
	const response = await fetch('/form?/action', {
		method: 'POST',
		body: new FormData(event.target)
	});

	const result = deserialize(await response.text());
	// ...
}
```

<div class="ts-block">

```dts
function deserialize<
	Success extends Record<string, unknown> | undefined,
	Failure extends Record<string, unknown> | undefined
>(
	result: string
): import('@sveltejs/kit').ActionResult<Success, Failure>;
```

</div>



## enhance

This action enhances a `<form>` element that otherwise would work without JavaScript.

The `submit` function is called upon submission with the given FormData and the `action` that should be triggered.
If `cancel` is called, the form will not be submitted.
You can use the abort `controller` to cancel the submission in case another one starts.
If a function is returned, that function is called with the response from the server.
If nothing is returned, the fallback will be used.

If this function or its return value isn't set, it emulates the browser-native behaviour, just without the full-page reload. It
- resets the `<form>` element and refreshes all data in case of a successful submission with no redirect response
- updates the `form` prop, `page.form` and `page.status` if the action is on the same page as the form
- navigates to the page the submission lands on — populating that page's `form` prop and `page.status` — on success and failure if that isn't the current page, just as a native form submission would, but with the `?/actionName` param stripped from the destination URL
- redirects in case of a redirect response
- renders the nearest error page in case of an unexpected error — the one nearest the action's route, if the action is on a different page

If you provide a custom function with a callback and want to use the default behavior, invoke `update` in your callback.
It accepts an options object
- `reset: false` if you don't want the `<form>` values to be reset after a successful submission
- `refreshAll` to control whether all data is refreshed after submission; it defaults to `true` for successes and `false` for failures
- `navigate: false` to apply non-redirect results to the current page rather than navigating to `result.location`; redirects are always followed

```dts

	Success extends Record<string, unknown> | undefined,
	Failure extends Record<string, unknown> | undefined
>(
	form_element: HTMLFormElement,
	submit?: import('@sveltejs/kit').SubmitFunction<
		Success,
		Failure
	>
): {
	destroy(): void;
};
```
