on my show page i have this

const { editUrl, create } = useNavigation();
create("member-cards", "push", { memberId: id });

const { editUrl, create } = useNavigation();
create("member-cards", "push", { memberId: id });

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 retrieve the memberId on your create page, you can use the useParams hook from React Router. This hook allows you to access URL parameters, including any additional parameters passed through the navigation. Here's how you can retrieve the memberId on your create page:

import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";

const CreatePage = () => {
  const params = useParams();
  const memberId = params.memberId;

  // Now you can use memberId in your component
  console.log("Member ID:", memberId);

  // Rest of your component code...
};

import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";

const CreatePage = () => {
  const params = useParams();
  const memberId = params.memberId;

  // Now you can use memberId in your component
  console.log("Member ID:", memberId);

  // Rest of your component code...
};

This approach works because the create function from useNavigation passes the additional parameters (in this case, { memberId: id }) as query parameters to the URL. However, it's important to note that the exact implementation might depend on how your routes are set up and how the create function is handling these additional parameters. If you're having trouble accessing the memberId this way, you might need to check your routing configuration or consider using a different method to pass and retrieve this data. For more information on using URL parameters in refine, you can refer to the How to use the useParams hook in React Router (https://refine.dev/blog/react-router-useparams/#how-to-use-the-useparams-hook) guide. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai what setup do i need in App.tsx to make this work?

kapa.ai•7d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To make the URL parameter passing work correctly in your refine application, you need to set up your routes and resources properly in the App.tsx file. Here's what you need to do: 1. First, make sure you have the necessary imports:

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";
import routerBindings from "@refinedev/react-router-v6";
import { BrowserRouter, Route, Routes } from "react-router-dom";

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";
import routerBindings from "@refinedev/react-router-v6";
import { BrowserRouter, Route, Routes } from "react-router-dom";

2. Then, in your App.tsx, you need to set up the Refine component with the correct routing configuration:

function App() {
  return (
    <BrowserRouter>
      <Refine
        routerProvider={routerBindings}
        resources={[
          {
            name: "member-cards",
            list: "/member-cards",
            create: "/member-cards/create/:memberId",
            // ... other actions
          },
          // ... other resources
        ]}
      >
        <Routes>
          <Route
            path="/member-cards/create/:memberId"
            element={<MemberCardCreate />}
          />
          {/* ... other routes */}
        </Routes>
      </Refine>
    </BrowserRouter>
  );
}

function App() {
  return (
    <BrowserRouter>
      <Refine
        routerProvider={routerBindings}
        resources={[
          {
            name: "member-cards",
            list: "/member-cards",
            create: "/member-cards/create/:memberId",
            // ... other actions
          },
          // ... other resources
        ]}
      >
        <Routes>
          <Route
            path="/member-cards/create/:memberId"
            element={<MemberCardCreate />}
          />
          {/* ... other routes */}
        </Routes>
      </Refine>
    </BrowserRouter>
  );
}

In this setup: 1. We're using the routerBindings from @refinedev/react-router-v6 to integrate React Router with refine. 2. In the resources array, we define the member-cards resource with a create action that includes the :memberId parameter in the path. 3. In the Routes component, we define a route that matches the path we specified in the resource, and we render the MemberCardCreate component for this route. This configuration allows the create function from useNavigation to properly pass the memberId as a URL parameter, which you can then retrieve using useParams in your create page component. For more detailed information on setting up routing in refine, you can refer to the Routing documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/guides-concepts/routing/#relationship-between-resources-and-routes-). Remember to adjust the exact paths and component names according to your specific application structure. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

what if i also want to pass another like petId? @kapa.ai what if i want to pass extra params like petId and colorId?

kapa.ai•7d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To pass additional parameters like petId and colorId along with memberId, you can modify your setup and approach slightly. Here's how you can do it: 1. First, update your navigation call in the show page:

const { create } = useNavigation();
create("member-cards", "push", { memberId: id, petId: petId, colorId: colorId });

const { create } = useNavigation();
create("member-cards", "push", { memberId: id, petId: petId, colorId: colorId });

2. In your App.tsx, modify the resource definition and route to include these new parameters:

function App() {
  return (
    <BrowserRouter>
      <Refine
        routerProvider={routerBindings}
        resources={[
          {
            name: "member-cards",
            list: "/member-cards",
            create: "/member-cards/create/:memberId/:petId/:colorId",
            // ... other actions
          },
          // ... other resources
        ]}
      >
        <Routes>
          <Route
            path="/member-cards/create/:memberId/:petId/:colorId"
            element={<MemberCardCreate />}
          />
          {/* ... other routes */}
        </Routes>
      </Refine>
    </BrowserRouter>
  );
}

function App() {
  return (
    <BrowserRouter>
      <Refine
        routerProvider={routerBindings}
        resources={[
          {
            name: "member-cards",
            list: "/member-cards",
            create: "/member-cards/create/:memberId/:petId/:colorId",
            // ... other actions
          },
          // ... other resources
        ]}
      >
        <Routes>
          <Route
            path="/member-cards/create/:memberId/:petId/:colorId"
            element={<MemberCardCreate />}
          />
          {/* ... other routes */}
        </Routes>
      </Refine>
    </BrowserRouter>
  );
}

3. In your create page, you can now retrieve all these parameters using useParams:

import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";

const CreatePage = () => {
  const { memberId, petId, colorId } = useParams();

  console.log("Member ID:", memberId);
  console.log("Pet ID:", petId);
  console.log("Color ID:", colorId);

  // Rest of your component code...
};

import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";

const CreatePage = () => {
  const { memberId, petId, colorId } = useParams();

  console.log("Member ID:", memberId);
  console.log("Pet ID:", petId);
  console.log("Color ID:", colorId);

  // Rest of your component code...
};

This approach allows you to pass and retrieve multiple parameters through the URL. However, if you prefer not to have all these parameters in the URL, or if you need to pass a large number of parameters, you might want to consider using the meta property of the create function instead. Here's how you could do that: 1. In your show page:

const { create } = useNavigation();
create("member-cards", "push", {}, { meta: { memberId: id, petId: petId, colorId: colorId } });

const { create } = useNavigation();
create("member-cards", "push", {}, { meta: { memberId: id, petId: petId, colorId: colorId } });

2. In your App.tsx, you don't need to change the route definition:

create: "/member-cards/create",

create: "/member-cards/create",

3. In your create page, you can access these parameters using the useNavigation hook:

import { useNavigation } from "@refinedev/core";

const CreatePage = () => {
  const { meta } = useNavigation();
  const { memberId, petId, colorId } = meta || {};

  console.log("Member ID:", memberId);
  console.log("Pet ID:", petId);
  console.log("Color ID:", colorId);

  // Rest of your component code...
};

import { useNavigation } from "@refinedev/core";

const CreatePage = () => {
  const { meta } = useNavigation();
  const { memberId, petId, colorId } = meta || {};

  console.log("Member ID:", memberId);
  console.log("Pet ID:", petId);
  console.log("Color ID:", colorId);

  // Rest of your component code...
};

This method keeps your URLs cleaner and allows you to pass any number of parameters without changing your route definitions. For more information on using the meta property and navigation in refine, you can refer to the useNavigation documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/routing/hooks/use-navigation/#return-values). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai going with your last suggestion i'm getting an error Property 'meta' does not exist on type '{ create: (resource: string | IResourceItem, type?: HistoryType | undefined, meta?: MetaDataQuery | undefined) => void; createUrl: (resource: string | IResourceItem, meta?: MetaDataQuery | undefined) => string; ... 10 more ...; goBack: () => void; }'.ts(2339)

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. It seems the useNavigation hook doesn't directly provide access to the meta data as I suggested. Let me provide a correct and working solution based on the refine documentation. To pass and retrieve additional parameters like memberId, petId, and colorId without including them in the URL, you can use the meta property in the create function and then retrieve it using the useResource hook in your create page. Here's how you can do it: 1. In your show page, use the create function from useNavigation like this:

const { create } = useNavigation();
create("member-cards", "push", { meta: { memberId: id, petId: petId, colorId: colorId } });

const { create } = useNavigation();
create("member-cards", "push", { meta: { memberId: id, petId: petId, colorId: colorId } });

2. In your App.tsx, you don't need to change the route definition:

create: "/member-cards/create",

create: "/member-cards/create",

3. In your create page, use the useResource hook to access the meta data:

import { useResource } from "@refinedev/core";

const CreatePage = () => {
  const { resource } = useResource();
  const { memberId, petId, colorId } = resource?.meta || {};

  console.log("Member ID:", memberId);
  console.log("Pet ID:", petId);
  console.log("Color ID:", colorId);

  // Rest of your component code...
};

import { useResource } from "@refinedev/core";

const CreatePage = () => {
  const { resource } = useResource();
  const { memberId, petId, colorId } = resource?.meta || {};

  console.log("Member ID:", memberId);
  console.log("Pet ID:", petId);
  console.log("Color ID:", colorId);

  // Rest of your component code...
};

This approach allows you to pass additional parameters without including them in the URL, and it's consistent with refine's API. For more information on using the meta property and resource in refine, you can refer to the <Refine> documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/core/refine-component/#meta) and the useResource documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/routing/hooks/use-resource/). I apologize again for the earlier mistake, and thank you for bringing this to my attention. This solution should work correctly within the refine framework. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
