Select - Getting Label based on Foreign Key
Hi!
I have a resource
locationProducts
, which maps a 'locationID' to a 'productID' from another resource called product
.
I'd like to introduce a <Select/> to choose a locationProduct. However, the label is currently productID.
Is there a preferred way for me to reference the resource product for each productID in locationProducts to retrieve product's name to use as value?5 Replies
Hi @avangeous. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Yes, you can use the
useSelect
hook provided by refine to handle this. The useSelect
hook allows you to handle an Ant Design Select component and includes out-of-the-box features such as fetchSize, sorting, and filtering.
Here is a basic example of how to use useSelect
hook:
In this example, useSelect
is used to fetch the list of products from the "products" resource. The options
returned by useSelect
is an array of objects, each representing a product. You can map over these options to render them as options in a select input. The label
property of each option is used as the display text in the select input, and the value
property is used as the value of the option.
You can replace "products"
with "locationProducts"
and adjust the IProduct
interface to match the structure of your locationProduct
objects.
For more information, you can refer to the useSelect documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/core/hooks/useSelect/index).
Please note that this example assumes that your dataProvider
is set up to handle the "products"
resource. If it's not, you'll need to adjust your dataProvider
accordingly. You can refer to the creating a data provider (https://refine.dev/docs/tutorial/understanding-dataprovider/create-dataprovider/) section for an example of how resources are handled.

Ended up using a useList and manually mapping. If there's a better way, though, I'm all ears

hello @avangeous, you can define field names in useSelect
https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/core/hooks/useSelect/#optionlabel-and-optionvalue
useSelect | refine
useSelect hook allows you to manage any select (like a Html `` tag, React Select, etc...) component. Since it is designed as headless, It expects you to handle the UI.
