You can use the

useModalForm

useModalForm

useModalForm

useModalForm hook provided by Refine to manage a form inside a modal component. This hook returns Ant Design Form and Modal props which you can use to create and manage your form within a modal.

Here is an example of how you can use it:

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreate: React.FC = () => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: "create",  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreate: React.FC = () => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: "create",  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreate: React.FC = () => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: "create",  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreate: React.FC = () => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: "create",  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

In this example,

You can pass a parameter to the

UserCreate

UserCreate

UserCreate

UserCreate component and use it inside the form. Here's an example:

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreate: React.FC<{trigger: string}> = ({ trigger }) => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: "create",  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Form.Item>
 <p>Triggered by: {trigger}</p>
 </Form.Item>
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreate: React.FC<{trigger: string}> = ({ trigger }) => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: "create",  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Form.Item>
 <p>Triggered by: {trigger}</p>
 </Form.Item>
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreate: React.FC<{trigger: string}> = ({ trigger }) => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: "create",  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Form.Item>
 <p>Triggered by: {trigger}</p>
 </Form.Item>
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreate: React.FC<{trigger: string}> = ({ trigger }) => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: "create",  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Form.Item>
 <p>Triggered by: {trigger}</p>
 </Form.Item>
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

In this example, a

trigger

trigger

prop is passed to the

UserCreate

UserCreate

UserCreate

UserCreate component. This prop is then used inside the form to display the action that triggered the modal.

You can call the

UserCreate

UserCreate

UserCreate

UserCreate component from different places like this:

<UserCreate trigger="action1" />
<UserCreate trigger="action2" />

<UserCreate trigger="action1" />
<UserCreate trigger="action2" />

<UserCreate trigger="action1" />
<UserCreate trigger="action2" />

<UserCreate trigger="action1" />
<UserCreate trigger="action2" />

Please note that this is a general approach and you might need to adjust it based on your specific use case.

You can use the

useForm

useForm

hook provided by Refine to handle both

create

create

and

edit

edit

edit

edit actions. The

useForm

useForm

hook can infer the action from the route by default, but you can also override it by passing the

action

action

prop.

Here's an example of how you can use it:

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

export const UserCreateOrEdit: React.FC = () => {

 formState: { errors },  
 } = useForm();  

 return (  
 <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onFinish)}>  
 <label>Title: </label>  
 <input {...register("title", { required: true })} />  
 {errors.title && <span>This field is required</span>}  
 <br />  
 <label>Status: </label>  
 <select {...register("status")}>  
 <option value="published">published</option>

 <textarea {...register("content", { required: true })} rows={10} cols={50} />  
 {errors.content && <span>This field is required</span>}  
 <br />  
 <br />  
 <input type="submit" disabled={formLoading} value="Submit" />  
 {formLoading && <p>Loading</p>}  
 </form>  
 );  
};

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

export const UserCreateOrEdit: React.FC = () => {  
 const {  
 refineCore: { onFinish, formLoading },

 formState: { errors },  
 } = useForm();  

 return (

Sure, you can wrap the form inside a modal using the

useModalForm

useModalForm

useModalForm

useModalForm hook. Here's an example:

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreateOrEdit: React.FC<{trigger: string}> = ({ trigger }) => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: trigger,  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreateOrEdit: React.FC<{trigger: string}> = ({ trigger }) => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: trigger,  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreateOrEdit: React.FC<{trigger: string}> = ({ trigger }) => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: trigger,  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

import { Modal, useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Form, Input, Button } from "antd";  
import React from "react";  

export const UserCreateOrEdit: React.FC<{trigger: string}> = ({ trigger }) => {  
 const { formProps, modalProps, submit } = useModalForm({  
 action: trigger,  
 });  

 return (  
 <Modal {...modalProps}>  
 <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">  
 <Form.Item label="Title" name="title">  
 <Input />  
 </Form.Item>  
 <Button key="submit" type="primary" onClick={submit}>  
 Submit  
 </Button>
 </Form>  
 </Modal>  
 );  
};

In this example, a

trigger

trigger

prop is passed to the

UserCreateOrEdit

UserCreateOrEdit

UserCreateOrEdit

UserCreateOrEdit component. This prop is then used to determine the action (

create

create

or

edit

edit

edit

edit) for the

useModalForm

useModalForm

useModalForm

useModalForm hook. The

formProps

formProps

are passed to the Ant Design

<Form />

<Form />

<Form />

<Form /> component and

modalProps

modalProps

modalProps

modalProps are passed to the

<Modal />

<Modal />

<Modal />

<Modal /> component. The

submit

submit

function is used to manually submit the form.

You can call the

UserCreateOrEdit

UserCreateOrEdit

UserCreateOrEdit

UserCreateOrEdit component from different places like this:

<UserCreateOrEdit trigger="create" />
<UserCreateOrEdit trigger="edit" />

<UserCreateOrEdit trigger="create" />
<UserCreateOrEdit trigger="edit" />

<UserCreateOrEdit trigger="create" />
<UserCreateOrEdit trigger="edit" />

<UserCreateOrEdit trigger="create" />
<UserCreateOrEdit trigger="edit" />

Please note that this is a general approach and you might need to adjust it based on your specific use case. You can find more information about

useModalForm
