Hi @MarcoNix. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- The issue you're facing is due to the format of the date returned by the backend. The date value '2023-12-02T00:00:00.000Z' is in ISO 8601 format, but the TextField of type 'date' expects the date in 'yyyy-MM-dd' format. To resolve this, you can use a date library like Day.js to format the date. Day.js is used by refine to display date format. Here's how you can modify your code:

import dayjs from 'dayjs';

// ...

<TextField
  {...register("start_date", {
    validate: (value) => {
      return new Date(value).getTime() > new Date().getTime()
        ? `${type ?? ""} ${translate("customers.validate.start_date")}`
        : true;
    },
    valueAsDate: true,
  })}
  error={!!(errors as any)?.start_date}
  helperText={(errors as any)?.start_date?.message}
  margin="normal"
  fullWidth
  type="date"
  InputLabelProps={{ shrink: true }}
  label={`${type ?? ""} ${translate("customers.fields.start_date")}`}
  name="start_date"
  value={dayjs(start_date).format('YYYY-MM-DD')}
/>

import dayjs from 'dayjs';

// ...

<TextField
  {...register("start_date", {
    validate: (value) => {
      return new Date(value).getTime() > new Date().getTime()
        ? `${type ?? ""} ${translate("customers.validate.start_date")}`
        : true;
    },
    valueAsDate: true,
  })}
  error={!!(errors as any)?.start_date}
  helperText={(errors as any)?.start_date?.message}
  margin="normal"
  fullWidth
  type="date"
  InputLabelProps={{ shrink: true }}
  label={`${type ?? ""} ${translate("customers.fields.start_date")}`}
  name="start_date"
  value={dayjs(start_date).format('YYYY-MM-DD')}
/>

In this example, dayjs(start_date).format('YYYY-MM-DD') is used to format the date value to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format which is expected by the TextField of type 'date'. Please note that this is a general example and might need to be adjusted based on your specific use case and data structure. For more information, you can refer to the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/mui/components/fields/date). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i want to transform the date to the before register add the value

kapa.ai•8mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- If you want to transform the date before registering it to the form, you can do so in the useEffect hook where you set the form values. Here's how you can modify your code:

import { useForm } from "@refinedev/react-hook-form";
import { TextField } from "@mui/material";
import dayjs from 'dayjs';

const PostEdit: React.FC = () => {
  const { register, setValue, getValues } = useForm();

  // Assuming you have a way to fetch your post
  const post = fetchPost();

  // When the post is fetched, set the value of the date field
  React.useEffect(() => {
    if (post) {
      // Transform the date to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format before setting it
      const formattedDate = dayjs(post.date).format('YYYY-MM-DD');
      setValue("date", formattedDate);
    }
  }, [post, setValue]);

  return (
    <form>
      <TextField {...register("date")} type="date" InputLabelProps={{ shrink: true }} />
      {/* rest of your form */}
    </form>
  );
};

import { useForm } from "@refinedev/react-hook-form";
import { TextField } from "@mui/material";
import dayjs from 'dayjs';

const PostEdit: React.FC = () => {
  const { register, setValue, getValues } = useForm();

  // Assuming you have a way to fetch your post
  const post = fetchPost();

  // When the post is fetched, set the value of the date field
  React.useEffect(() => {
    if (post) {
      // Transform the date to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format before setting it
      const formattedDate = dayjs(post.date).format('YYYY-MM-DD');
      setValue("date", formattedDate);
    }
  }, [post, setValue]);

  return (
    <form>
      <TextField {...register("date")} type="date" InputLabelProps={{ shrink: true }} />
      {/* rest of your form */}
    </form>
  );
};

In this example, dayjs(post.date).format('YYYY-MM-DD') is used to transform the date to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format before setting it to the form value with setValue("date", formattedDate). Please note that this is a general example and might need to be adjusted based on your specific use case and data structure.

@kapa.ai is there somethin in useform to transform date initialy

kapa.ai•8mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, you can transform the date initially using the useForm hook. However, the transformation is not done directly in the useForm hook. Instead, you would typically use a useEffect hook to set the initial form values after transforming the date. Here's an example:

import { useForm } from "@refinedev/react-hook-form";
import { TextField } from "@mui/material";
import dayjs from 'dayjs';

const PostEdit: React.FC = () => {
  const { register, setValue, getValues } = useForm();

  // Assuming you have a way to fetch your post
  const post = fetchPost();

  // When the post is fetched, set the value of the date field
  React.useEffect(() => {
    if (post) {
      // Transform the date to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format before setting it
      const formattedDate = dayjs(post.date).format('YYYY-MM-DD');
      setValue("date", formattedDate);
    }
  }, [post, setValue]);

  return (
    <form>
      <TextField {...register("date")} type="date" InputLabelProps={{ shrink: true }} />
      {/* rest of your form */}
    </form>
  );
};

import { useForm } from "@refinedev/react-hook-form";
import { TextField } from "@mui/material";
import dayjs from 'dayjs';

const PostEdit: React.FC = () => {
  const { register, setValue, getValues } = useForm();

  // Assuming you have a way to fetch your post
  const post = fetchPost();

  // When the post is fetched, set the value of the date field
  React.useEffect(() => {
    if (post) {
      // Transform the date to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format before setting it
      const formattedDate = dayjs(post.date).format('YYYY-MM-DD');
      setValue("date", formattedDate);
    }
  }, [post, setValue]);

  return (
    <form>
      <TextField {...register("date")} type="date" InputLabelProps={{ shrink: true }} />
      {/* rest of your form */}
    </form>
  );
};

@kapa.ai can we do transformation inside register hook options

kapa.ai•8mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The register function from the useForm hook in Refine doesn't directly support transformation of values. It's primarily used to register input/select Ref (callback ref) into the custom hook. However, you can handle the transformation before setting the value to the input field. If you're using a controlled component, you can transform the value before passing it to the value prop of your input field. Here's an example:

import { useForm } from "@refinedev/react-hook-form";
import dayjs from 'dayjs';

const { register, watch } = useForm();

const dateOfBirth = watch("dateOfBirth");

// Transform the date to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format
const formattedDate = dayjs(dateOfBirth).format('YYYY-MM-DD');

return (
  <input {...register('dateOfBirth')} value={formattedDate} type="date" />
);

import { useForm } from "@refinedev/react-hook-form";
import dayjs from 'dayjs';

const { register, watch } = useForm();

const dateOfBirth = watch("dateOfBirth");

// Transform the date to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format
const formattedDate = dayjs(dateOfBirth).format('YYYY-MM-DD');

return (
  <input {...register('dateOfBirth')} value={formattedDate} type="date" />
);

In this example, dayjs(dateOfBirth).format('YYYY-MM-DD') is used to transform the date to 'yyyy-MM-dd' format before setting it to the input field. Please note that this is a general example and might need to be adjusted based on your specific use case and data structure. For more information, you can refer to the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/mui/components/fields/date). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
