How to add a component such as PostList or PostEdit as a child to a component

When using the supabase dataprovider starter tutorial I am trying to add the PostList component as a child to another unrelated component. The component loads the list accordingly but it is in a loading state. When checking on the network call the API call was made successfully and the dataprovider was invoked. I am trying to do something similar to below Something similar to below: import React from "react"; import { PostList } from "./list"; function Hello() { return ( <div> <div>hello</div> <PostList /> </div> ); } export default Hello; When linking this component to my router I just get the loading spinner in my list.

Hi @davlaha. 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 experiencing might be due to the fact that the PostList component is designed to be used within the Refine component, which provides necessary context and hooks for data fetching. When you use PostList outside of the Refine component, it might not have access to the necessary context and hooks, hence the loading state. Here's how you can use PostList within the Refine component:

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";
import { PostList } from "./pages/posts";

function App() {
  return (
    <Refine
      dataProvider={dataProvider(supabaseClient)}
      resources={[
        {
          name: 'posts',
          list: "/posts",
          create: "/posts/create",
          edit: "/posts/edit/:id",
        },
      ]}
    >
      <Routes>
        <Route path="/posts" element={<PostList />} />
        {/* other routes */}
      </Routes>
    </Refine>
  );
}

export default App;

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";
import { PostList } from "./pages/posts";

function App() {
  return (
    <Refine
      dataProvider={dataProvider(supabaseClient)}
      resources={[
        {
          name: 'posts',
          list: "/posts",
          create: "/posts/create",
          edit: "/posts/edit/:id",
        },
      ]}
    >
      <Routes>
        <Route path="/posts" element={<PostList />} />
        {/* other routes */}
      </Routes>
    </Refine>
  );
}

export default App;

In the code above, PostList is used as a child of the Route component, which is itself a child of the Refine component. This way, PostList has access to the necessary context and hooks provided by Refine. If you want to use PostList in another component like Hello, you should ensure that Hello is used within the Refine component, like so:

import React from "react";
import { PostList } from "./pages/posts";

function Hello() {
  return (
    <div>
      <div>hello</div>
      <PostList />
    </div>
  );
}

// in App component
<Route path="/hello" element={<Hello />} />

import React from "react";
import { PostList } from "./pages/posts";

function Hello() {
  return (
    <div>
      <div>hello</div>
      <PostList />
    </div>
  );
}

// in App component
<Route path="/hello" element={<Hello />} />

In this case, Hello is used as a child of the Route component, which is itself a child of the Refine component. This way, PostList (which is a child of Hello) has access to the necessary context and hooks provided by Refine. For more information, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Hmmm okay so what is the recomended approach of having multiple components pulling from resources data sources in a single route Can you give me a sample @kapa.ai can you provide an example

kapa.ai•15mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Sure, here's an example of how you can use the PostList component as a child of another component within the Refine component:

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";  
import dataProvider from "@refinedev/simple-rest";  
import { PostList } from "pages/posts";  
import { BrowserRouter, Routes, Route } from "react-router-dom";

function Hello() {
  return (
    <div>
      <div>hello</div>
      <PostList />
    </div>
  );
}

const App: React.FC = () => {  
 return (  
 <BrowserRouter>
 <Refine  
 dataProvider={dataProvider("<https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev">)}  
 resources={[{ name: "posts", list: "/posts" }]}  
 >  
 <Routes>  
 <Route path="/hello" element={<Hello />} />  
 </Routes>  
 </Refine>  
 </BrowserRouter>
 );  
};  
  
export default App;

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";  
import dataProvider from "@refinedev/simple-rest";  
import { PostList } from "pages/posts";  
import { BrowserRouter, Routes, Route } from "react-router-dom";

function Hello() {
  return (
    <div>
      <div>hello</div>
      <PostList />
    </div>
  );
}

const App: React.FC = () => {  
 return (  
 <BrowserRouter>
 <Refine  
 dataProvider={dataProvider("<https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev">)}  
 resources={[{ name: "posts", list: "/posts" }]}  
 >  
 <Routes>  
 <Route path="/hello" element={<Hello />} />  
 </Routes>  
 </Refine>  
 </BrowserRouter>
 );  
};  
  
export default App;

In this example, the Hello component includes the PostList component. The Hello component is then used as a route in the Refine component. This way, PostList has access to the necessary context and hooks provided by Refine. Please note that the PostList component needs to be defined properly. You can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs) or the Refine blog (https://refine.dev/blog) for more information on how to define the PostList component. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Thanks @kapa.ai I figured it out ... I was not passing the resource in correctly. Thanks

kapa.ai•15mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You're welcome! I'm glad to hear that you've figured it out. Remember, when using Refine, it's important to correctly define and pass the resource prop to ensure the proper functioning of your components. If you have any more questions or run into any other issues, feel free to ask. Happy coding! ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
