Hi @jakshire01. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
You can add the
<CreateButton />
component to your headerButtons
array to display it alongside the ImportButton
and ExportButton
. The CreateButton
component uses the create
method from useNavigation
under the hood and can be useful to redirect the app to the create page route of resource.
Here is how you can do it:
Please replace @refinedev/antd
with the UI library you are using (@refinedev/mui
for Material UI or @refinedev/mantine
for Mantine).
For more information, you can refer to the documentation for CreateButton (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/buttons/create-button/), ImportButton (https://refine.dev/docs/api-references/components/buttons/import-button), and ExportButton (https://refine.dev/docs/api-references/components/buttons/export-button).

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
You can place the
<RefreshButton />
component in the Space
component where you want it to appear. Here's an example of how you can do it:
Please replace @refinedev/antd
with the UI library you are using (@refinedev/mui
for Material UI or @refinedev/mantine
for Mantine).
For more information, you can refer to the documentation for RefreshButton (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/buttons/refresh-button/).

@kapa.ai whats the use of refresh button
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The
<RefreshButton />
component in Refine is used to refresh or update the data shown on the page. It triggers the useInvalidate
hook which invalidates the cache of a specific resource or the entire cache of the application. This results in fetching the latest data from the server.
Here's an example of how it's used:
In this example, clicking the button will trigger the useInvalidate
hook and then fetch the record whose resource is "posts" and whose id is "1".
For more information, you can refer to the documentation for RefreshButton (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/buttons/refresh-button/).

@kapa.ai
<Space
style={{
justifyContent: "flex-end",
marginTop: "auto",
display: "flex",
flexDirection: "column",
}}
>
<RefreshButton />
</Space>
if i use refresh just like this will it invalidate and fetch resource
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Yes, using the
<RefreshButton />
component without any props will still trigger the useInvalidate
hook and refresh the data. By default, it will read the resource and id information from the route.
Here's an example:
In this case, clicking the button will trigger the useInvalidate
hook and then fetch the record whose resource and id are inferred from the current route.
For more information, you can refer to the documentation for RefreshButton (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/buttons/refresh-button/).

@kapa.ai
where best to use refresh button in list page or create page
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The
<RefreshButton />
is typically used in a List page or a Show page.
In a List page, the <RefreshButton />
can be used to refresh the entire list of records from the server. This is useful when you want to ensure that you have the latest data, especially in a data-intensive application where the data changes frequently.
In a Show page, the <RefreshButton />
can be used to refresh a specific record. This is useful when you want to ensure that you are viewing the latest version of a specific record.
While you can technically use the <RefreshButton />
in a Create page, it's not common because you're usually creating a new record, and there's no existing data to refresh.
Here's an example of how you can use it in a List page:
And in a Show page:
Please replace @refinedev/antd
with the UI library you are using (@refinedev/mui
for Material UI or @refinedev/mantine
for Mantine).
For more information, you can refer to the documentation for RefreshButton (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/buttons/refresh-button/).

@kapa.ai
Iam using export like this
const { triggerExport, isLoading: exportLoading } = useExport<IInvoice>();
return (
<>
<Card
style={{
marginBottom: "36px",
width: "fit-content",
boxShadow: "0 2px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0.1, 0.3)",
}}
>
<Filter formProps={searchFormProps} />
</Card>
<List
headerButtons={[
<RefreshButton />,
<ImportButton {...importProps} />,
<ExportButton onClick={triggerExport} loading={exportLoading} />,
<CreateButton />,
]}
But my IInvoice interface has other interfaces linked
it looks like this
export interface IItem {
_id: string;
item_name: string;
description: string;
quantity: number;
pricePerItem: number;
total: number;
}
export interface IInvoice {
_id: string;
name: string;
invoiceDate: Date;
client: IClient;
contact: IContact;
discountPercentage: number;
taxPercentage: number;
custom_id: string;
note: string;
currency: string;
items: IItem[];
status: Status;
total: number;
subtotal: number;
}
and when i export i get items as [object Object],[object Object] how can i fix this
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The
useExport
hook in Refine exports data as it is. If a field in your data is an object or an array of objects (like items
in your case), it will be converted to a string as [object Object]
in the exported CSV file. This is because CSV is a flat structure and doesn't support nested objects or arrays.
To fix this, you need to flatten your data before exporting it. You can do this by creating a custom export function that transforms your data into a flat structure. Here's an example of how you can do it:
In this example, customExport
is a function that fetches the data, flattens it, and then exports it as a CSV file. The items
field is transformed into a string by joining the item_name
of each item with a comma.
Please note that you'll need to install and import the parse
function from the json2csv
package and the download
function from the downloadjs
package:
This is a simplified example and you might need to adjust it based on your needs. For instance, if you have more complex nested fields, you might need to flatten them as well.
