why when using modal it do a call to the api before opening it

I do an api call in the modal and before i click to open it, the api call is already send. Is it possible to only have the call when the modal is open?

Hi @SetiZ. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- This behavior you're experiencing with the modal making an API call before opening is actually expected in certain scenarios when using refine. Let me explain why this happens and how you can control it: 1. Default Behavior: By default, refine's modal hooks like useModalForm will make an API call to fetch data when the component mounts, even if the modal is not open yet. This is designed to preload data for better performance. 2. Controlling API Calls: You can control when the API call is made using the queryOptions prop. Specifically, you can use the enabled option to determine when the query should run. Here's how you can modify your useModalForm hook to only make the API call when the modal is open:

const {
    modal: { visible },
    // ... other destructured properties
} = useModalForm({
    // ... other options
    queryOptions: {
        enabled: visible
    },
});

const {
    modal: { visible },
    // ... other destructured properties
} = useModalForm({
    // ... other options
    queryOptions: {
        enabled: visible
    },
});

By setting enabled: visible, the query will only run when the modal is visible (i.e., open). 3. Additional Context: It's worth noting that this behavior is related to how React Query (which refine uses under the hood) manages data fetching. The multiple API calls you might be seeing could also be related to React's Strict Mode in development, which intentionally double-invokes certain functions to help identify potential issues. For more detailed information on this topic, you can refer to the following resources: 1. refine useModalForm API Reference 2. refine FAQ on API calls triggering twice If you need further assistance or have more specific questions about implementing this in your refine application, please feel free to ask! ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai is it possible with useForm also ?

kapa.ai•4d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, it is possible to control when the API call is made with useForm as well. The useForm hook in refine provides similar functionality to useModalForm when it comes to controlling data fetching. Here's how you can use the queryOptions prop with useForm to control when the API call is made:

const formProps = useForm({
  // ... other options
  queryOptions: {
    enabled: false // or some condition
  },
});

const formProps = useForm({
  // ... other options
  queryOptions: {
    enabled: false // or some condition
  },
});

By setting enabled: false in the queryOptions, you can prevent the initial API call from being made when the component mounts. You can then control when to trigger the query based on your specific requirements. For more detailed information on using queryOptions with useForm, you can refer to the following documentation: 1. refine useForm API Reference (Ant Design) 2. refine useForm API Reference (Mantine) 3. refine useForm API Reference (React Hook Form) These documents explain that the queryOptions property works in the edit and clone modes, allowing you to pass options to control the query behavior. Remember that the exact implementation might vary slightly depending on which UI framework you're using with refine (Ant Design, Mantine, or React Hook Form), but the core concept remains the same across all of them. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai can you give me a full exemple with useModal or useModalFom ?

kapa.ai•4d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Certainly! I'd be happy to provide you with a full example using useModalForm. This example will demonstrate how to control the API call so that it only occurs when the modal is opened. Here's a complete example using the Ant Design UI integration with refine:

import { useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Form, Input, Modal } from "antd";
import { useState } from "react";

const PostEdit = () => {
  const [visible, setVisible] = useState(false);

  const {
    modalProps,
    formProps,
    show,
    queryResult,
  } = useModalForm({
    action: "edit",
    resource: "posts",
    queryOptions: {
      enabled: visible, // This ensures the query only runs when the modal is visible
    },
  });

  const handleShow = () => {
    setVisible(true);
    show();
  };

  const handleCancel = () => {
    setVisible(false);
    modalProps.onCancel();
  };

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={handleShow}>Edit Post</button>
      <Modal
        {...modalProps}
        visible={visible}
        onCancel={handleCancel}
        title="Edit Post"
      >
        <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">
          <Form.Item
            label="Title"
            name="title"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input />
          </Form.Item>
          <Form.Item
            label="Content"
            name="content"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input.TextArea />
          </Form.Item>
        </Form>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

export default PostEdit;

import { useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Form, Input, Modal } from "antd";
import { useState } from "react";

const PostEdit = () => {
  const [visible, setVisible] = useState(false);

  const {
    modalProps,
    formProps,
    show,
    queryResult,
  } = useModalForm({
    action: "edit",
    resource: "posts",
    queryOptions: {
      enabled: visible, // This ensures the query only runs when the modal is visible
    },
  });

  const handleShow = () => {
    setVisible(true);
    show();
  };

  const handleCancel = () => {
    setVisible(false);
    modalProps.onCancel();
  };

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={handleShow}>Edit Post</button>
      <Modal
        {...modalProps}
        visible={visible}
        onCancel={handleCancel}
        title="Edit Post"
      >
        <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">
          <Form.Item
            label="Title"
            name="title"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input />
          </Form.Item>
          <Form.Item
            label="Content"
            name="content"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input.TextArea />
          </Form.Item>
        </Form>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

export default PostEdit;

In this example: 1. We use useModalForm from refine's Ant Design integration. 2. We control the visibility of the modal with a local state visible. 3. The queryOptions prop is set with enabled: visible. This ensures that the API call to fetch the post data only happens when the modal is visible. 4. The show function from useModalForm is called along with setting visible to true when the "Edit Post" button is clicked. 5. We override the onCancel behavior to also set our local visible state to false. This setup ensures that the API call to fetch the post data for editing only occurs when the modal is actually opened, addressing your original concern. For more detailed information on useModalForm, you can refer to the refine useModalForm API Reference. Remember to adjust the resource name and form fields according to your specific use case. This example assumes you're editing a "post" with "title" and "content" fields. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai same but with a create form and calling a resource on useSelect

kapa.ai•4d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Certainly! I'll provide you with an example of a create form using useModalForm along with useSelect to fetch data for a select input. This example will demonstrate how to control the API calls for both the form submission and the select options. Here's a complete example using the Ant Design UI integration with refine:

import { useModalForm, useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Form, Input, Modal, Select } from "antd";
import { useState } from "react";

const PostCreate = () => {
  const [visible, setVisible] = useState(false);

  const {
    modalProps,
    formProps,
    show,
  } = useModalForm({
    action: "create",
    resource: "posts",
  });

  const { selectProps: categorySelectProps } = useSelect({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "title",
    optionValue: "id",
    queryOptions: {
      enabled: visible, // Only fetch categories when modal is visible
    },
  });

  const handleShow = () => {
    setVisible(true);
    show();
  };

  const handleCancel = () => {
    setVisible(false);
    modalProps.onCancel();
  };
return (
    <>
      <button onClick={handleShow}>Create Post</button>
      <Modal
        {...modalProps}
        visible={visible}
        onCancel={handleCancel}
        title="Create Post"
      >
        <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">
          <Form.Item
            label="Title"
            name="title"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input />
          </Form.Item>
          <Form.Item
            label="Content"
            name="content"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input.TextArea />
          </Form.Item>
          <Form.Item
            label="Category"
            name="categoryId"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Select
              {...categorySelectProps}
              placeholder="Select category"
            />
          </Form.Item>
        </Form>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

export default PostCreate;

import { useModalForm, useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Form, Input, Modal, Select } from "antd";
import { useState } from "react";

const PostCreate = () => {
  const [visible, setVisible] = useState(false);

  const {
    modalProps,
    formProps,
    show,
  } = useModalForm({
    action: "create",
    resource: "posts",
  });

  const { selectProps: categorySelectProps } = useSelect({
    resource: "categories",
    optionLabel: "title",
    optionValue: "id",
    queryOptions: {
      enabled: visible, // Only fetch categories when modal is visible
    },
  });

  const handleShow = () => {
    setVisible(true);
    show();
  };

  const handleCancel = () => {
    setVisible(false);
    modalProps.onCancel();
  };
return (
    <>
      <button onClick={handleShow}>Create Post</button>
      <Modal
        {...modalProps}
        visible={visible}
        onCancel={handleCancel}
        title="Create Post"
      >
        <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">
          <Form.Item
            label="Title"
            name="title"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input />
          </Form.Item>
          <Form.Item
            label="Content"
            name="content"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input.TextArea />
          </Form.Item>
          <Form.Item
            label="Category"
            name="categoryId"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Select
              {...categorySelectProps}
              placeholder="Select category"
            />
          </Form.Item>
        </Form>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

export default PostCreate;

In this example: 1. We use useModalForm for the create form, setting the action to "create" and specifying the resource as "posts". 2. We use useSelect to fetch categories for the select input. The queryOptions are set with enabled: visible to ensure that categories are only fetched when the modal is visible. 3. The visibility of the modal is controlled by a local state visible. 4. The show function from useModalForm is called along with setting visible to true when the "Create Post" button is clicked. 5. We override the onCancel behavior to also set our local visible state to false. 6. The form includes fields for "title", "content", and a select input for "category". This setup ensures that: - The create form doesn't make any API calls until it's submitted. - The categories for the select input are only fetched when the modal is opened. For more detailed information on these hooks, you can refer to: 1. refine useModalForm API Reference 2. refine useSelect API Reference Remember to adjust the resource names and form fields according to your specific use case. This example assumes you're creating a "post" with "title", "content", and "categoryId" fields, and that you have a "categories" resource. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai modal doesn't close

kapa.ai•2d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I apologize for the confusion. If the modal is not closing as expected, there might be an issue with how the closing functionality is implemented. Let's troubleshoot this issue based on the information provided in the knowledge sources. The most likely cause of this problem is that the close function from useModalForm is not being called correctly. Here's how you can modify the example to ensure the modal closes properly:

import { useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Form, Input, Modal } from "antd";

const PostCreate = () => {
  const {
    modalProps,
    formProps,
    show,
    close // Make sure to destructure the close function
  } = useModalForm({
    action: "create",
    resource: "posts",
  });

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={() => show()}>Create Post</button>
      <Modal
        {...modalProps}
        onCancel={() => close()} // Use the close function here
        title="Create Post"
      >
        <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">
          <Form.Item
            label="Title"
            name="title"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input />
          </Form.Item>
          {/* Other form items */}
        </Form>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

export default PostCreate;

import { useModalForm } from "@refinedev/antd";
import { Form, Input, Modal } from "antd";

const PostCreate = () => {
  const {
    modalProps,
    formProps,
    show,
    close // Make sure to destructure the close function
  } = useModalForm({
    action: "create",
    resource: "posts",
  });

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={() => show()}>Create Post</button>
      <Modal
        {...modalProps}
        onCancel={() => close()} // Use the close function here
        title="Create Post"
      >
        <Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">
          <Form.Item
            label="Title"
            name="title"
            rules={[{ required: true }]}
          >
            <Input />
          </Form.Item>
          {/* Other form items */}
        </Form>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};

export default PostCreate;

Key points to ensure the modal closes: 1. Destructure the close function from useModalForm. 2. Use the close function in the onCancel prop of the Modal component. 3. Remove any custom state management for the modal visibility, as useModalForm handles this internally. If you're still experiencing issues, it might be related to the autoResetForm or autoSubmitClose properties. You can try explicitly setting these in the useModalForm hook:

const {
  modalProps,
  formProps,
  show,
  close
} = useModalForm({
  action: "create",
  resource: "posts",
  autoResetForm: true,
  autoSubmitClose: true,
});

const {
  modalProps,
  formProps,
  show,
  close
} = useModalForm({
  action: "create",
  resource: "posts",
  autoResetForm: true,
  autoSubmitClose: true,
});

For more detailed information on these properties and troubleshooting, you can refer to the refine useModalForm API Reference. If you're still facing issues after implementing these suggestions, please provide more details about your specific implementation, and I'll be happy to help further. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
