Can Show and Edit components pass custom meta to the buttons ?
Is it possible to pass meta to the buttons, besides rewriting the entire rendering ?
What I am doing now is the following;
But this is so redundant and verbose, is there an easier way ?

Yes, it is possible to pass additional parameters or override the existing ones using the
meta
prop in both Show
and Edit
components. This is done through the show
and edit
methods of useNavigation
.
For example, if the show
action route is defined by the pattern: /posts/:authorId/show/:id
, the meta
prop can be used as follows:
Similarly, if the edit
action route is defined by the pattern: /posts/:authorId/edit/:id
, the meta
prop can be used as follows:
However, based on the discussion in the Github issue (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/3829), it seems that the Refine team is considering adding separate props for each button to support separate values rather than a single meta
. This would allow you to pass different meta
values to different buttons.
As of now, your current approach of passing meta
to each button individually seems to be the recommended way.
For more information, you can refer to the documentation for ShowButton (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/buttons/show-button#meta) and EditButton (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/material-ui/components/buttons/edit-button#meta).
