how to set custom url for antd useForm hook
const { id } = useParsed();
const { formProps, saveButtonProps, queryResult } = useForm();
I have this setup in my edit screen, and I want to specifically call
api/user/getUser
for the fetch, and i want to also set api/user/updateUser
as the update url. How can i customize those?94 Replies
Hi @biohazard#1521. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
To customize the fetch and update URLs in the
useForm
hook of Refine, you can use the useCustomMutation
hook. This hook allows you to specify a custom URL for the mutation.
Here is an example of how you can do it:
In this example, the useForm
hook is used to manage the form state. The useCustomMutation
hook is used to specify a custom URL for the mutation. The handleOnFinish
function is called when the form is submitted, and it uses the mutate
function from useCustomMutation
to send a PATCH request to the specified URL with the form values.
Please note that this is a general example and you might need to adjust it according to your specific needs. For instance, you might need to adjust the resource
and id
properties in the useForm
hook, and the url
and method
properties in the mutate
function.
For more information, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/antd/hooks/form/useForm/#how-can-i-change-the-form-data-before-submitting-it-to-the-api) and the discussion on GitHub (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/discussions/4927).

@kapa.ai if i pass the resource as per your example in the
useForm
hook, it stops making any requests at all when i initially load the form pageLet me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I see, it seems like the
useForm
hook is not able to infer the correct API endpoint from the resource
prop in your case.
In Refine, the useForm
hook automatically makes a GET request to fetch the data when the component is mounted. This is based on the resource
and id
props passed to the hook. If these props are not correctly set, the hook might not be able to make the correct request.
One possible solution could be to manually fetch the data when the component is mounted using the useQuery
hook, and then use the useForm
hook only for the submission of the form. Here is an example:
In this example, the useQuery
hook is used to fetch the data when the component is mounted. The useForm
hook is then used to manage the form state and handle the form submission. The defaultValues
prop of the useForm
hook is set to the data fetched by the useQuery
hook.
Please note that this is a general example and you might need to adjust it according to your specific needs. For instance, you might need to adjust the url
property in the useQuery
hook and the url
and method
properties in the mutate
function.
For more information, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/antd/hooks/form/useForm/#how-can-i-change-the-form-data-before-submitting-it-to-the-api) and the discussion on GitHub (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/discussions/4927).

ok now another question, i try to use <ShowButton/> in my list component, and when i try clicking it, it just pushes me to the same list url, which is "/users". What is wrong there? My show and edit buttons:
<Table.Column
dataIndex=""
title="Actions"
render={(_, record) => {
return (
<>
<ShowButton
resource="users"
size="small"
recordItemId={record.id}
hideText
/>
<EditButton
resource="users"
size="small"
recordItemId={record.id}
hideText
/>
</>
);
}}
@kapa.ai
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The
<ShowButton/>
and <EditButton/>
components in Refine use the resource
and recordItemId
props to construct the URL to which they will redirect when clicked. The resource
prop should match the name of the resource as defined in your <Resource/>
component, and the recordItemId
prop should be the id of the record you want to show or edit.
In your case, you're setting the resource
prop to "users"
and recordItemId
to record.id
, which should be correct assuming that your resource is named "users"
and your records have a property id
which is unique for each record.
If clicking the buttons redirects you to the list URL ("/users"
), it could mean that the recordItemId
is not being correctly set. Make sure that record.id
is defined and unique for each record.
If you're still having issues, it could be due to a bug or a misconfiguration in your code. In that case, I would recommend checking the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/buttons/show-button#resource) and the Refine GitHub issues (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/1125) for similar problems, or opening a new issue with a detailed description of your problem.

it is defined for sure, but it doesn't work.
this is my resources definition on the <Refine/> component:
resources={[
{
name: 'users',
list: '/users',
create: '/users/create',
edit: '/users/edit/:id',
show: '/users/show/:id',
},
]}
and my routes definitions:
<Route path="/users">
<Route index element={<UserList />} />
<Route path="create" element={<UserCreate />} />
<Route path="edit/:id" element={<UserEdit />} />
<Route path="show/:id" element={<UserShow />} />
</Route>

Based on your resource and route definitions, everything seems to be set up correctly. The
ShowButton
and EditButton
should redirect to the correct paths when clicked.
However, if they're not working as expected, it could be due to a bug or a misconfiguration somewhere else in your code. Here are a few things you could check:
1. Make sure that the record.id
is correctly set and unique for each record. You can check this by logging the record.id
in the render function of your Table.Column
.
2. Make sure that the UserShow
and UserEdit
components are correctly set up to receive and handle the id
parameter from the route. You can check this by logging the id
in these components.
3. Make sure that the resource
prop in the ShowButton
and EditButton
matches the name
prop in your resource definition. In your case, it should be "users"
.
4. Make sure that your Route
components are correctly nested within a Routes
component, and that your Routes
component is correctly nested within a BrowserRouter
or HashRouter
component.
If you're still having issues, I would recommend checking the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/components/buttons/show-button#resource) and the Refine GitHub issues (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/1125) for similar problems, or opening a new issue with a detailed description of your problem.

@kapa.ai I have a custom data provider, and i try to use the
useForm
hook with a custom resource
that is not defined anywhere. I want to intercept the request in my data provider and edit the request, but when i add the resource
value, no request seems to be happening at allLet me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
In Refine, the
useForm
hook automatically makes a GET request to fetch the data when the component is mounted. This is based on the resource
and id
props passed to the hook. If these props are not correctly set, the hook might not be able to make the correct request.
If you're using a custom data provider and you want to intercept the request, you should handle this in your data provider's methods. The resource
prop passed to the useForm
hook will be passed to your data provider's methods as a parameter.
Here's an example of how you can handle this in your data provider:
In this example, the getOne
method checks if the resource
is 'custom-resource'
. If it is, it handles the request in a specific way. If it's not, it handles the request in a different way.
If no request is being made when you add the resource
value, it could be because your data provider's methods are not correctly handling the resource
. Make sure that your data provider's methods are correctly checking the resource
and making the appropriate request.
For more information, you can refer to the Refine documentation on creating a data provider (https://refine.dev/docs/data/data-provider/#creating-a-data-provider) and the Refine documentation on the useForm
hook (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-form#resource).

the problem is that even if i define it like this:
the getOne method is never even being called, but if i remove the custom resource, then it does call the default resource name.

The
useForm
hook in Refine uses the resource
and id
props to construct the API endpoint for the GET request it makes when the component is mounted. If the resource
prop is not correctly set, the hook might not be able to make the correct request.
If the getOne
method is not being called when you set a custom resource
, it could be because Refine is not able to match the resource
with any of the resources defined in your <Refine>
component.
In Refine, resources are defined in the <Refine>
component and are used to construct the API endpoints for the data provider methods. If you're using a custom resource
that is not defined in your <Refine>
component, Refine might not be able to construct the correct API endpoint, and therefore might not call the getOne
method.
If you want to use a custom resource
with the useForm
hook, you should define this resource
in your <Refine>
component. Here's an example:
In this example, the admingetuser
resource is defined in the <Refine>
component. You can then use this resource
with the useForm
hook:
Now, when you use the useForm
hook with the admingetuser
resource, Refine should be able to construct the correct API endpoint and call the getOne
method.
For more information, you can refer to the Refine documentation on the useForm
hook (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-form#resource) and the Refine documentation on resources (https://refine.dev/docs/concepts/resources).
