This is the powerful AjaxSubmitButton widget that renders an ajax button which is very similar to ajaxSubmitButton from Yii1 for Yii 2, but has many useful functions.

### Basic Example

Example of usage of the widget with a custom widget (in this case Select2 widget).

The view:
```php
use demogorgorn\ajax\AjaxSubmitButton;

'uk-width-medium-1-1 uk-form uk-form-horizontal']); ?>

= Select2::widget([
'name' => 'country_code',
'data' => Country::getAllCountries(),
'options' => [
'id' => 'country_select',
'multiple' => false,
'placeholder' => 'Choose...',
'class' => 'uk-width-medium-7-10']
]);
?>

'Check',
'ajaxOptions' => [
'type'=>'POST',
'url'=>'country/getinfo',
'success' => new \yii\web\JsExpression('function(html){
$("#output").html(html);
}'),
],
'options' => ['class' => 'customclass', 'type' => 'submit'],
]);
AjaxSubmitButton::end();
?>


```

> Please note: that #output is a div element which will be updated.

In controller:
```php
public function actionGetinfo()
{
if(!isset($_POST['country_code']) || empty($_POST['country_code']))
return;

$code = $_POST['country_code'];

return $this->renderAjax('resultwidget', ['code' => $code]);
}
```

### Example of usage with ActiveForm and client validation

The view:
```php
$form = ActiveForm::begin([
'id' => 'add-form',
'options' => ['class' => 'form-inline'],
]);

...

AjaxSubmitButton::begin([
'label' => 'Add',
'useWithActiveForm' => 'add-form',
'ajaxOptions' => [
'type' => 'POST',
'success' => new \yii\web\JsExpression("function(data) {
if (data.status == true)
{
closeTopbar();
}
}"),
],
'options' => ['class' => 'btn btn-primary', 'type' => 'submit', 'id' =>'add-button'],
]);
AjaxSubmitButton::end();

ActiveForm::end()
```

> As you can see it's quite easy to use the widget with ActiveForm - enough to set the ActiveForm's id to the 'useWithActiveForm' variable. (In this case id is 'add-form', without '#' symbol!).

### Client validation

As I said before the widget can be used with ActiveForm and client validation enabled. If you wish to disable it, just set ActiveForm's 'enableClientValidation' to false.

```php
$form = ActiveForm::begin([
'id' => 'filters-form',
'enableClientValidation' => false
]);
```

### Preloader use

It's possible to use the widget with your own custom preloader.

```php
'Check',
'ajaxOptions' => [
'type'=>'POST',
'url'=>'country/getinfo',
'beforeSend' => new \yii\web\JsExpression('function(html){
... show preloader...
}'),
'success' => new \yii\web\JsExpression('function(html){
... hide preloader ...
}'),
],
'options' => ['class' => 'customclass', 'type' => 'submit'],
]);
AjaxSubmitButton::end();
?>
```

### File Uploads

AjaxSubmitButton fully supports file uploads.
For example (look at the comments):

```php
'Сохранить',
'useWithActiveForm' => 'add-form',
'ajaxOptions' => [
'type' => 'POST',
'processData' => false, // Don't process the files
'contentType' => false, // Set content type to false as jQuery will tell the server its a query string request
'data' => new \yii\web\JsExpression("new FormData($('#add-form')[0])"), // Do not stringify the form
'success' => new \yii\web\JsExpression("function(data) {
if (data.status == true)
{
// process result
}
}"),
],
'options' => ['class' => 'btn btn-primary', 'type' => 'submit', 'id' =>'add-button'],
]);
AjaxSubmitButton::end(); ?>
```

### Widget's options

Variable | Description | Type
------------ | ------------- | -------------
ajaxOptions | ajax options | Array
options | HTML attributes and other options of the widget's container tag | Array
tagName | the tag to use to render the button (by default is 'button'. You can specify, for example, 'a' tag) | String
label | button's label | String
icon | button's icon | String (e.g. 'fa fa-download')
iconPosition | button icon position | const (ICON_POSITION_LEFT or ICON_POSITION_RIGHT)
encodeLabel | whether the label should be HTML-encoded | Boolean
clickedButtonVarName | js object name. It is unused when useWithActiveForm is enabled | String
useWithActiveForm | whether the button should not be used with ActiveForm. the id of ActiveForm to use the button with | Boolean / String
