Hi @Ernest Tan. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
The
fieldTransformer prop is used in the Inferencer component to customize the output of the inferred fields. You can use it to modify properties like accessor, change the type of a field, or change the resource for a relation type. The fieldTransformer is a function that takes a field as an argument and returns the modified field. If it returns undefined, false, or null, the field will be removed from the output, both for the preview and the code.
Unfortunately, the provided extracts do not include a specific example of using the fieldTransformer prop. However, you can find more information about the Inferencer component and its usage in the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/packages/documentation/inferencer#modifying-the-inferred-fields).

@refinedev/inferencer is a package that provides a way to automatically generate views for resources based on the data structure. The aim is to reduce the amount of time spent on creating views for resources by generating the code automatically that can be customized easily.

hi refine conmmunity. i am testing refine for my next project, things are good till now.
but i am struggling in one area.. the inferencer and object field. my api returns "name" field as object containing language translation. like name: {en:"xxx", fr:"yyy"}. reading the docs i undrestand i must use fieldTransformer and set the accesssor but it could not dispaly what i expected. her is how i tried it <ChakraUIInferencer
fieldTransformer={field => { if(field.key==="name") { // field.fieldable = true field.accessor = "en" return field } return field }} /> the list view just omits the name field. how can i fix this? /> solved it by seting the type to text. field.type = "text"
