Hi @obelisk291. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- Yes, you can change the values returned in @refinedev/antd's <Select.Option> by using the optionLabel and optionValue properties in the useSelect hook. These properties allow you to customize the label and value of your options. Here is an example of how you can change the label and value properties:

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Select } from "antd";

interface ICategory {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  categoryId: number;
}

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
  const { selectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "name",
    optionValue: "categoryId",
  });

  return (
    <Select
      placeholder="Select a category"
      style={{ width: 300 }}
      {...selectProps}
    />
  );
};

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Select } from "antd";

interface ICategory {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  categoryId: number;
}

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
  const { selectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "name",
    optionValue: "categoryId",
  });

  return (
    <Select
      placeholder="Select a category"
      style={{ width: 300 }}
      {...selectProps}
    />
  );
};

In this example, the optionLabel is set to "name" and the optionValue is set to "categoryId". This means that the name property of each item will be used as the label, and the categoryId property will be used as the value in the <Select.Option>. For more details, you can refer to the documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-select/#optionlabel-and-optionvalue). Additionally, you can also use nested property access or pass functions to these properties for more complex scenarios:

const { options } = useSelect({
  optionLabel: (item) => `${item.firstName} ${item.lastName}`,
  optionValue: (item) => item.id,
});

const { options } = useSelect({
  optionLabel: (item) => `${item.firstName} ${item.lastName}`,
  optionValue: (item) => item.id,
});

This allows you to format the label and value based on the properties of each item. For further information, you can check the documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-select/#optionlabel-and-optionvalue) and the example (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-select/#example). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai How can I call the label from selectProps? @kapa.ai How can I call the label from selectProps?

kapa.ai•2mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To call the label from selectProps in @refinedev/antd, you can use the optionLabel property within the useSelect hook. This property allows you to specify which field from your data should be used as the label in the <Select.Option>. Here is an example of how you can set up and use selectProps with a custom label:

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Select } from "antd";

interface ICategory {
  id: number;
  name: string;
}

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
  const { selectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "name", // This specifies the field to be used as the label
    optionValue: "id",   // This specifies the field to be used as the value
  });

  return (
    <Select
      placeholder="Select a category"
      style={{ width: 300 }}
      {...selectProps}
    />
  );
};

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Select } from "antd";

interface ICategory {
  id: number;
  name: string;
}

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
  const { selectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "name", // This specifies the field to be used as the label
    optionValue: "id",   // This specifies the field to be used as the value
  });

  return (
    <Select
      placeholder="Select a category"
      style={{ width: 300 }}
      {...selectProps}
    />
  );
};

In this example: - optionLabel: "name" specifies that the name field from the categories resource should be used as the label in the <Select.Option>. - optionValue: "id" specifies that the id field should be used as the value. This setup ensures that when you use selectProps in your <Select> component, the options will display the name field as the label. For more details, you can refer to the documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-select/#optionlabel-and-optionvalue). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai I mean to see the current label's value. For example, I can find the value (not the label) from calling selectProps.labelInValue

kapa.ai•2mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To see the current label's value when using selectProps in @refinedev/antd, you can use the labelInValue property. This property allows you to get both the label and the value of the selected option. Here's an example of how you can access the current label's value:

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Select } from "antd";
import { useState } from "react";

interface ICategory {
  id: number;
  name: string;
}

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
  const { selectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "name", // This specifies the field to be used as the label
    optionValue: "id",   // This specifies the field to be used as the value
  });

  const [selectedOption, setSelectedOption] = useState<{ label: string; value: number } | null>(null);

  const handleChange = (value: { label: string; value: number }) => {
    setSelectedOption(value);
  };

  return (
    <>
      <Select
        placeholder="Select a category"
        style={{ width: 300 }}
        {...selectProps}
        labelInValue
        onChange={handleChange}
      />
      {selectedOption && (
        <div>
          <p>Selected Label: {selectedOption.label}</p>
          <p>Selected Value: {selectedOption.value}</p>
        </div>
      )}
    </>
  );
};

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Select } from "antd";
import { useState } from "react";

interface ICategory {
  id: number;
  name: string;
}

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
  const { selectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "name", // This specifies the field to be used as the label
    optionValue: "id",   // This specifies the field to be used as the value
  });

  const [selectedOption, setSelectedOption] = useState<{ label: string; value: number } | null>(null);

  const handleChange = (value: { label: string; value: number }) => {
    setSelectedOption(value);
  };

  return (
    <>
      <Select
        placeholder="Select a category"
        style={{ width: 300 }}
        {...selectProps}
        labelInValue
        onChange={handleChange}
      />
      {selectedOption && (
        <div>
          <p>Selected Label: {selectedOption.label}</p>
          <p>Selected Value: {selectedOption.value}</p>
        </div>
      )}
    </>
  );
};

In this example: - The labelInValue property is set to true in the <Select> component. - The handleChange function updates the selectedOption state with the selected option's label and value. - The current label and value are displayed below the <Select> component. This setup allows you to see the current label's value whenever an option is selected. For more details, you can refer to the documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/ant-design/hooks/use-select/#optionlabel-and-optionvalue). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai selectPropsCategory.labelInValue is returning the value, not the label, how can I return the label? This is for something outside of the Select where I would need the value

kapa.ai•2mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To ensure that selectPropsCategory.labelInValue returns both the label and the value, you need to set the labelInValue property to true in the Select component. This will make the onChange event return an object containing both the label and the value. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Select } from "antd";
import { useState } from "react";

interface ICategory {
  id: number;
  name: string;
}

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
  const { selectProps: selectPropsCategory } = useSelect<ICategory>({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "name", // This specifies the field to be used as the label
    optionValue: "id",   // This specifies the field to be used as the value
  });

  const [selectedOption, setSelectedOption] = useState<{ label: string; value: number } | null>(null);

  const handleChange = (value: { label: string; value: number }) => {
    setSelectedOption(value);
  };

  return (
    <>
      <Select
        placeholder="Select a category"
        style={{ width: 300 }}
        {...selectPropsCategory}
        labelInValue
        onChange={handleChange}
      />
      {selectedOption && (
        <div>
          <p>Selected Label: {selectedOption.label}</p>
          <p>Selected Value: {selectedOption.value}</p>
        </div>
      )}
    </>
  );
};

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Select } from "antd";
import { useState } from "react";

interface ICategory {
  id: number;
  name: string;
}

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
  const { selectProps: selectPropsCategory } = useSelect<ICategory>({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "name", // This specifies the field to be used as the label
    optionValue: "id",   // This specifies the field to be used as the value
  });

  const [selectedOption, setSelectedOption] = useState<{ label: string; value: number } | null>(null);

  const handleChange = (value: { label: string; value: number }) => {
    setSelectedOption(value);
  };

  return (
    <>
      <Select
        placeholder="Select a category"
        style={{ width: 300 }}
        {...selectPropsCategory}
        labelInValue
        onChange={handleChange}
      />
      {selectedOption && (
        <div>
          <p>Selected Label: {selectedOption.label}</p>
          <p>Selected Value: {selectedOption.value}</p>
        </div>
      )}
    </>
  );
};

In this example: - The labelInValue property is set to true in the <Select> component. - The handleChange function updates the selectedOption state with the selected option's label and value. - The current label and value are displayed below the <Select> component. This setup ensures that selectPropsCategory.labelInValue returns an object containing both the label and the value, which you can then use outside of the Select component.
