savebuttonprops how to intercept before submit?

Hi @flankieflew. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To intercept the form submission before it occurs when using saveButtonProps, you can modify the onClick property of saveButtonProps. This allows you to add custom logic before the form is submitted. Here's how you can do it:

const { saveButtonProps, handleSubmit } = useForm();

const customSubmitHandler = (values) => {
  // Your custom logic here
  console.log("Custom logic before submission", values);
  
  // Then call the original onFinish function
  onFinish(values);
};

return (
  <Create 
    saveButtonProps={{
      ...saveButtonProps,
      onClick: handleSubmit(customSubmitHandler)
    }}
  >
    {/* Your form fields */}
  </Create>
);

const { saveButtonProps, handleSubmit } = useForm();

const customSubmitHandler = (values) => {
  // Your custom logic here
  console.log("Custom logic before submission", values);
  
  // Then call the original onFinish function
  onFinish(values);
};

return (
  <Create 
    saveButtonProps={{
      ...saveButtonProps,
      onClick: handleSubmit(customSubmitHandler)
    }}
  >
    {/* Your form fields */}
  </Create>
);

In this example, we're using the handleSubmit function from useForm to wrap our custom submit handler. This ensures that form validation is still performed before our custom logic runs. You can modify the customSubmitHandler function to include any logic you want to execute before the form is submitted, such as data transformation or additional validation. This approach works for various UI libraries that refine supports, including Ant Design, Mantine, and Material-UI.
