Hi @Lost Spartan. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
I understand you want to modify the confirmation modal that appears when using the
DeleteButton
component in refine, specifically to disable the buttons for 3 seconds.
Refine's DeleteButton
component uses a confirmation dialog/modal that appears when you try to delete an entry. The implementation varies slightly depending on which UI framework you're using (Material UI, Chakra UI, or Mantine).
Based on the knowledge sources, there are a few approaches you can take:
Option 1: Create a custom DeleteButton component
You can create your own custom DeleteButton by using the useDeleteButton
hook which provides all the necessary values and functions:
Option 2: Swizzle the DeleteButton component
Refine allows you to "swizzle" (customize) built-in components using the Refine CLI. This is mentioned in the documentation for the DeleteButton components:
Good to know: You can swizzle this component to customize it with the Refine CLIMaterial UI DeleteButton Chakra UI DeleteButton Mantine DeleteButton After swizzling, you can modify the component to add the 3-second disable functionality. Option 3: Use the existing customization props The DeleteButton components accept various props for customization, including: -
confirmTitle
- confirmOkText
- confirmCancelText
However, based on the knowledge sources, there doesn't appear to be a direct prop to disable the buttons for a specific duration. You would need to implement a custom solution as described in options 1 or 2.
For the most direct and flexible approach, I recommend option 1 or 2, as they give you full control over the modal behavior.

@kapa.ai how would i do the swizzle option?
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I'll explain how to use the swizzle command to customize the DeleteButton component in refine.
Using the Swizzle Command
The swizzle command allows you to export components from Refine packages to your app so you can customize them. Here's how to do it:
1. Run the following command in your terminal:
2. You'll be prompted to select which package you want to swizzle. Use the arrow keys to select your UI framework (e.g.,
@refinedev/antd
, @refinedev/mui
, @refinedev/chakra-ui
, or @refinedev/mantine
):
3. After selecting the package, you'll be prompted to select which component you want to swizzle. Navigate to the DeleteButton component:
4. Once you select the DeleteButton, the CLI will create the component files in your project directory, typically under src/components/buttons/delete-button/
or a similar path depending on your framework.
Using swizzle
5. Now you can modify the swizzled DeleteButton component to add your 3-second disable functionality. The implementation will vary slightly depending on your UI framework, but the general approach would be to:
- Add a state variable to track if buttons are disabled
- Use a setTimeout to enable the buttons after 3 seconds
- Apply the disabled state to the buttons in the confirmation dialog
Important Notes
- Swizzling is a one-way operation. Once you swizzle a component, you'll be responsible for keeping it up to date with any future changes in the Refine packages.
- You'll need to manually replace the default DeleteButton with your customized version in your imports.
- The swizzled component will be detached from the package, so you'll need to maintain it yourself.
Customization
This approach gives you full control over the DeleteButton component, allowing you to implement the 3-second disable functionality exactly as you need it.

@kapa.ai now that i swizzled the component i want to know how can i display properties of the row i want to delete like the name for example on the dialog
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I understand you want to display properties of the row you're deleting (like the name) in the DeleteButton's confirmation dialog after swizzling the component.
Looking at the knowledge sources, there are a few ways to achieve this:
Customizing the Confirmation Dialog Text
The DeleteButton component accepts props like
confirmTitle
that allow you to customize the confirmation dialog text. You can use these props to include record information in the dialog.
From the GitHub issue, we can see this was actually a feature request that was implemented:
Github Issue
Modifying the Swizzled Component
Now that you've swizzled the DeleteButton component, you can modify it to access and display record data in the confirmation dialog. Here's how you can approach this:
1. In your swizzled DeleteButton component, you'll need to fetch the record data using the recordItemId
and resource
props.
2. You can use the useOne
hook from refine to fetch the record data before showing the confirmation dialog.
3. Modify the confirmation dialog to display the record properties.
Here's a simplified example of how you might modify the swizzled component:
This approach allows you to:
1. Fetch the record data using the useOne
hook
2. Create a dynamic confirmation title that includes record properties
3. Implement your 3-second button disable functionality
The exact implementation will vary depending on which UI framework you're using (Material UI, Chakra UI, or Mantine), but the core concept remains the same.
Remember that you'll need to handle loading states and potential errors when fetching the record data.
Would you like more specific guidance for a particular UI framework?

@kapa.ai do i have to invoke useOne to get the data or is it better to pass the data from the list view because its already there and we only pass the row.id to the delete button
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
You're absolutely right - it's more efficient to pass the data from the list view rather than making an additional API call with
useOne
when the data is already available.
Looking at the examples in the knowledge sources, we can see that the DeleteButton is typically used within list components where the row data is already available:
To pass the row data to your swizzled DeleteButton, you have two options:
Option 1: Pass the record directly as a prop
You can modify your DeleteButton to accept a record
prop:
Option 2: Use the existing pattern with custom confirmTitle
If you don't want to modify the DeleteButton API too much, you can simply pass a custom confirmTitle
that includes the record data:
This approach is supported by the existing DeleteButton component as shown in the GitHub issue:
Github Issue
Recommendation
The second option is simpler and requires fewer changes to your swizzled component. It's also more aligned with how refine's DeleteButton is designed to be used.
If you need more complex customization with the record data, the first option gives you more flexibility but requires more changes to the component API.
Either way, you're right that it's more efficient to use the data that's already available in your list view rather than making an additional API call with useOne
.

@kapa.ai if im using typescript and have a schema defined should i make the deleteButton accept dynamic types for better explorations of properties of the records in the deleteButton
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Yes, making your swizzled DeleteButton component accept dynamic types with TypeScript is a good practice for better type safety and property exploration when working with record data in refine.
Here's how you can implement generic typing for your DeleteButton component:
This approach offers several benefits:
1. Type Safety: TypeScript will provide proper type checking for the record properties
2. IntelliSense Support: Your IDE will show property suggestions when you type
record.
3. Flexibility: The component can work with different record types across various resources
When using the component in your list view, you can specify the type:
This pattern is consistent with refine's approach to typing, as refine components like useTable
also accept generic type parameters for better type safety.
If you're using the component in multiple places with different record types, this generic approach will make your code more maintainable and provide better developer experience through TypeScript's type checking and autocompletion features.
Would you like more specific guidance on implementing this with a particular UI framework or with more complex record types?

@kapa.ai also i want to modify the edit page to reload the edit page with the new values intead of going the default behaviour
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I understand you want to modify the default behavior of the edit page in refine to reload with new values instead of redirecting to another page after a successful form submission.
By default, refine redirects to the list page after a successful edit operation, but you can customize this behavior in several ways:
Option 1: Set redirect to false in useForm
You can use the
redirect
property in the useForm
hook to prevent any redirection after form submission:
This will keep the user on the edit page after submission, as mentioned in the documentation:
Refine Component
Option 2: Use queryResult.refetch to reload data
After a successful form submission, you can manually refetch the data to reload the form with updated values:
This approach is mentioned in a GitHub issue where a user wanted to refresh data after calling external APIs:
Github Issue
Option 3: Configure global redirect behavior
You can also configure the redirect behavior globally in the <Refine>
component:
This will apply to all edit forms in your application, as shown in the documentation:
Refine Component
Option 4: Use updateMutationOptions to control invalidation
If you want more control over the data refetching process, you can use the updateMutationOptions
property:
This is documented in the Ant Design UI integration:
Ant Design useForm
The most straightforward approach is to use Option 1 or Option 3 to prevent redirection, combined with Option 2 to manually refetch the data after submission.
Would you like more specific guidance for implementing this with a particular UI framework?

@kapa.ai Take into consideration that im using react hook form,material ui, nextjs
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I'll provide guidance specific to your tech stack: React Hook Form, Material UI, and Next.js with refine.
Customizing Edit Page with React Hook Form in refine
Since you're using React Hook Form with refine, you'll want to use the
@refinedev/react-hook-form
integration. Here's how to modify the edit page to reload with new values instead of redirecting:
This approach is based on examples from the refine documentation for React Hook Form integration:
Dynamic Forms with React Hook Form
Global Configuration Option
Alternatively, you can configure this behavior globally in your Next.js app by setting the redirect option in your _app.tsx
or app.tsx
:
This is documented in the refine component options:
Refine Component Redirect
Material UI Edit Component Example
For Material UI specifically, you can follow this pattern which is similar to the examples in the documentation:
This approach gives you full control over the form submission process while maintaining the Material UI styling and refine's form handling capabilities.

@kapa.ai the refine ui template behaviour by default sends you to the list page after the summit is correct how can i change that because even with your changes it still does that
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I understand that despite trying the previous approaches, the form is still redirecting to the list page after submission. Let's look at the specific ways to change this default behavior in refine.
Based on the knowledge sources, there are several ways to control the redirect behavior after form submission:
1. Set redirect option in useForm
The most direct way is to set the
redirect
property to false
in your useForm
hook:
This is documented in the refine docs:
Redirect property in useForm
2. Configure global redirect behavior
You can configure this behavior globally in your <Refine>
component:
This is documented here:
Refine Component Redirect
3. Use the redirect function from useForm
If the above methods aren't working, you can try using the redirect
function returned from useForm
to control the redirection programmatically:
This approach is mentioned in the documentation:
Redirect function in useForm
4. Check for conflicting settings
If you're still experiencing redirection, check for:
1. Global settings in <Refine>
component that might override your local settings
2. UI template components that might have their own redirect logic
3. Make sure you're using the correct property path for your specific UI integration
For React Hook Form specifically, make sure you're setting the property correctly:
This structure is important as React Hook Form's integration with refine uses a slightly different API structure than the core useForm hook.
Let me know if these approaches help or if you need more specific guidance for your implementation.

@kapa.ai excelent with those changes it works as i want but i noticed that when doing the queryResult?.refetch() its stays loading on the form and the refresh button of the edit form how can i fix that?, is it because queryresult is deprecated
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I understand you're experiencing an issue where the form stays in a loading state after using
queryResult?.refetch()
. This could indeed be related to the fact that queryResult
is deprecated in newer versions of refine.
According to the documentation, queryResult
is deprecated and will be removed in future versions:
Documentation > Docs > Ui-integrations > Ant-design > Hooks > useForm > Return Values The recommended approach is to use thequeryResultdeprecated This prop is deprecated and will be removed in the future versions. Usequery
instead.
query
property instead of queryResult
. Here's how you can update your code:
Another issue could be related to React Query's keepPreviousData
setting, which is set to true
by default in refine. This can cause the isLoading
state to remain true even after refetching, as mentioned in this GitHub issue:
Github Issue: [BUG] isLoading always false even when queryKey changes
You can modify this behavior globally in your Refine configuration:
If you're still experiencing issues, you might need to handle the loading state manually. You can check the specific loading states from the query object:
For the refresh button specifically, you might need to customize it to use the correct query reference:
This approach should help resolve the loading state issue after refetching data in your edit form.

@kapa.ai can the issue be that in implemented this code to get the data for the edit view?
const { data, isLoading } = useOne({
resource: "students",
id,
});
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Yes, that could definitely be the issue. When you're using
useOne
directly in your edit view alongside useForm
, you're creating two separate data fetching mechanisms that aren't coordinated with each other.
Looking at the knowledge sources, I can see that the useShow
hook (which is similar to useOne
in this context) has a similar issue described in a GitHub issue:
When trying to change viewing record withGithub Issue: [BUG] setShowId is not triggering queryResult: isLoading, isError on useShow The recommended approach is to rely on the query object fromsetShowId
,isLoading
andisError
are not triggered.
useForm
rather than using a separate useOne
hook. Here's how you should modify your code:
This way, when you call query.refetch()
, the loading states will be properly managed by the same query instance that's handling your form data.
If you need to access the record data before the form is ready, you can use the queryOptions
property of useForm
to configure how the data is fetched:
This approach ensures that all data fetching is coordinated through a single query instance, which should resolve the loading state issues you're experiencing.

@kapa.ai using this solution now query and data have type errors
'data' implicitly has type 'any' because it does not have a type annotation and is referenced directly or indirectly in its own initializer.
'query' implicitly has type 'any' because it does not have a type annotation and is referenced directly or indirectly in its own initializer.
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I see you're encountering TypeScript errors with the
query
and data
variables when using useForm
in refine. This is a common issue when working with TypeScript and the refine hooks. Let me help you fix these type errors.
When using useForm
with React Hook Form in refine, you need to properly specify the type parameters to avoid TypeScript errors. Here's how to fix it:
The useForm
hook from @refinedev/react-hook-form
accepts several type parameters as documented in the API Reference:
1. TQueryFnData
- The data type returned by the query function (your Student interface)
2. TError
- The error type (usually HttpError)
3. TVariables
- The form values type (can be the same as your data type or different)
If your form structure differs from your API data structure, you can specify a different type for the third parameter:
This approach ensures that TypeScript correctly infers the types for query
and data
, resolving the implicit 'any' type errors you're encountering.
