如何在thymeleaf模板中发送PUT/PATCH/DELETE请求?

我如何发送 DELETE 请求与 thymeleaf ? 我尝试如下:

<form action="" th:method="delete">
    <input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" href="/person/123" value="Delete" />
</form>

@RequestMapping(value="/person/{id}", method = RequestMethod.DELETE)
@ResponseBody
public String delete(@PathVariable String id) {
    personService.delete(id);
    return "Successfully deleted";
}

但我得到的只有: org.springframework.web.HttpRequestMethodNotSupportedException: Request method 'POST' not supported
