useSelect with custom label function

I want to use the refine/antd useSelect, but I want a custom function to determine the label for each element of the resultant <Select> component. Is there a way to do that?

Hi @Hypnotic Meat. 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 use a custom function to determine the label for each element in the useSelect hook from @refinedev/antd. The useSelect hook provides an optionLabel property that allows you to customize how the label is generated for each option. Here's how you can use a custom function for the optionLabel:

const { selectProps } = useSelect({
  resource: "categories",
  optionLabel: (item) => `${item.firstName} ${item.lastName}`,
});

const { selectProps } = useSelect({
  resource: "categories",
  optionLabel: (item) => `${item.firstName} ${item.lastName}`,
});

In this example, the optionLabel is set to a function that receives the item as an argument. You can customize this function to return any string you want based on the properties of the item. This functionality is documented in the useSelect Properties section of the refine documentation. The documentation states: "It's also possible to pass function to these props. These functions will receive item argument." You can then use the selectProps in your Ant Design <Select> component:

<Select {...selectProps} />

<Select {...selectProps} />

This approach allows you to create custom labels for your select options while still leveraging the power and convenience of the useSelect hook. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
