Hi @tamastro. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
I'm sorry, but the provided knowledge sources do not contain specific information on how to integrate Refine, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and React Query in a single project. However, I can guide you on how to integrate Tailwind CSS into a Refine project based on the available information.
Here are the general steps to add Tailwind CSS to a Refine project:
1. Install Tailwind CSS and related packages:
2. Initialize a
tailwind.config.js
file at the root of your project directory:
3. Update the tailwind.config.js
file with the necessary configurations. Here's an example:
4. Create a CSS file (e.g., src/index.css
) and add the following Tailwind CSS directives:
5. Import the CSS file you created into your main file (e.g., src/index.tsx
).
As for integrating React Query, the knowledge sources do not provide specific instructions. You may want to refer to the official React Query documentation (https://react-query.tanstack.com/overview) for guidance.
Please note that these steps are based on the information available in the provided knowledge sources. For a more specific setup, you may need to refer to the official documentation or other resources.

How to integrate reactquery
@kapa.ai how to integrate react query in refine
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Refine is built to work seamlessly with React Query. In fact, React Query is used by Refine for data processing, caching, and state management. This means that when you're working with Refine, you're already using React Query under the hood.
Refine leverages libraries like React Query for data fetching, caching, state management, and error handling. This means you don't need to define anything extra for every case and model when using Refine.
However, if you want to use React Query directly in your Refine application, you can do so by using the hooks provided by React Query. These hooks can be used throughout the whole application and are compatible with Refine.
Here's an example of how you might use a React Query hook in a Refine application:
In this example,
useQuery
is a hook provided by React Query. The first argument is a unique key for the query, and the second argument is a function that returns a promise that will resolve to the data you want to fetch.
Please note that this is a general example and the actual implementation may vary based on your specific use case and the structure of your Refine application.

Can i use multiple data provider file ?
@kapa.ai Can i use multiple data provider file ?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Yes, Refine allows you to use multiple data providers in your application. This feature enables you to connect multiple backends and manage their data with a single interface.
To use multiple data providers, you need to pass key and value pairs to the
dataProvider
prop of the <Refine />
component. In the pair object, the key corresponds to the data provider name, and the value corresponds to the data provider itself. When defining multiple data providers, a default
key is required for defining the default data provider.
Here is an example which uses multiple data providers:
You can pick data providers in two ways:
1. Use the dataProviderName
prop in data hooks and data-related components/functions:
2. Use the meta.dataProviderName
property in your resource config, which will be the default data provider but can be overridden in data hooks and components:

Make an example of getcustom data provider method
@kapa.ai Make an example of getcustom data provider method
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
In Refine, you can define custom methods in your data provider. These methods can be used to handle specific requests that are not covered by the standard CRUD operations.
Here's an example of how you might define a custom method in your data provider:
In this example, the
custom
method is an async function that takes an object as its argument. This object can contain the following properties:
- url
: The endpoint of your API that you want to make a request to.
- method
: The HTTP method of your request (e.g., 'GET', 'POST', 'PUT', 'DELETE').
- filters
: Any filters that you want to apply to your request.
- sorters
: Any sorters that you want to apply to your request.
- payload
: The body of your request, if applicable.
- query
: Any query parameters that you want to include in your request.
- headers
: Any headers that you want to include in your request.
- meta
: Any additional metadata that you want to include with your request.
You can then use this custom method in your components like this:
In this example, useCustom
is a hook provided by Refine that allows you to use your custom data provider methods. The first argument is a unique key for the query, and the second argument is a function that returns a promise that will resolve to the data you want to fetch.
Please note that this is a general example and the actual implementation may vary based on your specific use case and the structure of your Refine application.

@kapa.ai can i createe more than one custom data provider method ?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Yes, you can create more than one custom method in your data provider in Refine. Each custom method should have a unique name and can be used to handle different types of requests or operations that are not covered by the standard CRUD operations.
Here's an example of how you might define multiple custom methods in your data provider:
In this example,
customMethod1
and customMethod2
are custom methods defined in the data provider. Each method is an async function that takes an object as its argument. This object can contain various properties that you can use to customize your request.
You can then use these custom methods in your components like this:
In this example, useCustom
is a hook provided by Refine that allows you to use your custom data provider methods. The action
parameter corresponds to the name of the custom method you want to use.
Please note that this is a general example and the actual implementation may vary based on your specific use case and the structure of your Refine application.

@kapa.ai refine use tanstackquery under the hood right, do refine store the querykey, if so how to use the saved querykey?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Yes, Refine uses TanStack's React Query library under the hood for data fetching and state management. This includes the use of query keys for caching and state updates.
In Refine, query keys are used in all data, auth, access control, and audit log queries and mutations. By default, Refine uses legacy keys for backward compatibility, but it has introduced new, more structured query keys that are easier to construct. You can switch to using these new keys by setting the
useNewQueryKeys
option to true
in the <Refine>
component.
Here's an example:
However, the knowledge sources do not provide specific information on how to directly use the saved query keys in Refine. In general, with React Query, you can use the query keys to refetch data, invalidate or refetch queries, and perform other operations. You can refer to the React Query documentation (https://react-query.tanstack.com/guides/query-keys) for more details.
Please note that while Refine uses React Query under the hood, it provides its own set of hooks (useList
, useOne
, useCreate
, useUpdate
, useDelete
, etc.) that abstract away much of the direct interaction with React Query, making it easier to perform data operations without having to manually manage query keys.
