Hi @antably. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To refetch data after applying a gender filter when selecting a parent in refine, you have several options: Using tableQueryResult.refetch() The most direct way to refetch data is to use the refetch method from the tableQueryResult object returned by useTable:

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable();

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  // Apply gender filter
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male" // or whatever value you need
    }
  ]);
  
  // Then manually refetch
  tableQueryResult.refetch();
};

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable();

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  // Apply gender filter
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male" // or whatever value you need
    }
  ]);
  
  // Then manually refetch
  tableQueryResult.refetch();
};

This approach is documented in several GitHub issues where users needed to programmatically refresh tables GitHub Issue #1384. Using Dynamic Filters Alternatively, you can rely on the automatic refetching behavior of useTable when filters change:

const [parentId, setParentId] = useState(null);

const { tableProps } = useTable({
  filters: {
    initial: [
      {
        field: "gender",
        operator: "eq",
        value: parentId ? "male" : undefined // Filter only applied when parent is selected
      }
    ]
  }
});

const handleParentSelect = (id) => {
  setParentId(id);
  // The table will automatically refetch when the filters change due to the parentId state change
};

const [parentId, setParentId] = useState(null);

const { tableProps } = useTable({
  filters: {
    initial: [
      {
        field: "gender",
        operator: "eq",
        value: parentId ? "male" : undefined // Filter only applied when parent is selected
      }
    ]
  }
});

const handleParentSelect = (id) => {
  setParentId(id);
  // The table will automatically refetch when the filters change due to the parentId state change
};

This approach leverages the fact that dynamically changing the filters property will trigger a new request, as mentioned in the documentation for filtering with hooks like useList and useTable Documentation on useTable filtering. Setting Filter Behavior You can also control how filters are applied using the defaultBehavior option:

const { tableProps, setFilters } = useTable({
  filters: {
    defaultBehavior: "replace", // or "merge"
  }
});

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male"
    }
  ]);
  // Table will automatically refetch with new filters
};

const { tableProps, setFilters } = useTable({
  filters: {
    defaultBehavior: "replace", // or "merge"
  }
});

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male"
    }
  ]);
  // Table will automatically refetch with new filters
};

The defaultBehavior can be set to either "merge" or "replace" depending on whether you want to add to existing filters or completely replace them Documentation on filters.defaultBehavior. Choose the approach that best fits your application's requirements and structure. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai in parents combobox am using the first option you suggested but the data gets refetched without applying the gender filter my code:

kapa.ai•2mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on your description, it sounds like you're experiencing an issue where the data is being refetched but the gender filter isn't being applied correctly when using the tableQueryResult.refetch() approach. This could be happening because the filter might not be fully applied before the refetch is triggered. When you call setFilters() followed by an immediate tableQueryResult.refetch(), there's a possibility that the refetch happens before React has fully processed the state update from setFilters(). Here are a few solutions to try: 1. Use the filters' callback to refetch

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable();

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male" // or whatever value you need
    }
  ], "replace", () => {
    // This callback runs after the filters have been applied
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  });
};

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable();

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male" // or whatever value you need
    }
  ], "replace", () => {
    // This callback runs after the filters have been applied
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  });
};

2. Use useEffect to trigger refetch when filters change

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters, filters } = useTable();

// Monitor filter changes and refetch when they change
useEffect(() => {
  if (filters.length > 0) {
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  }
}, [filters]);

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male"
    }
  ]);
  // The useEffect will handle the refetch
};

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters, filters } = useTable();

// Monitor filter changes and refetch when they change
useEffect(() => {
  if (filters.length > 0) {
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  }
}, [filters]);

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male"
    }
  ]);
  // The useEffect will handle the refetch
};

3. Use queryOptions to control refetching behavior As mentioned in GitHub Issue #1512, you can use queryOptions to have more control over when refetching happens:

const [shouldRefetch, setShouldRefetch] = useState(false);

const { tableProps, setFilters } = useTable({
  queryOptions: {
    enabled: shouldRefetch
  }
});
const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male"
    }
  ]);
  
  // Trigger refetch
  setShouldRefetch(true);
  
  // Reset after refetch is triggered
  setTimeout(() => setShouldRefetch(false), 50);
};

const [shouldRefetch, setShouldRefetch] = useState(false);

const { tableProps, setFilters } = useTable({
  queryOptions: {
    enabled: shouldRefetch
  }
});
const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male"
    }
  ]);
  
  // Trigger refetch
  setShouldRefetch(true);
  
  // Reset after refetch is triggered
  setTimeout(() => setShouldRefetch(false), 50);
};

If you're still experiencing issues, it might be helpful to check if your filters are actually being applied correctly by logging the filters state before and after the change. Also, make sure your data provider is correctly handling the filters you're sending. If you could share more of your code, especially how you're implementing the parent selection and filter application, I could provide more specific guidance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai when it refetches the response is 206 and it doesn't apply the gender filter

kapa.ai•2mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on your description of receiving a 206 response code and the gender filter not being applied during refetch, this suggests a potential issue with how the filters are being processed or how the data provider is handling the request. A 206 status code (Partial Content) typically indicates that the server is delivering only part of the resource due to a range header sent by the client. In the context of refine, this might indicate that your request is being processed but not with the complete set of parameters you expect. Here are some potential solutions: 1. Check filter mode setting Make sure your filter mode is set to "server" (which is the default) rather than "off":

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable({
  filters: {
    mode: "server" // This is the default, but explicitly setting it might help
  }
});

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable({
  filters: {
    mode: "server" // This is the default, but explicitly setting it might help
  }
});

As mentioned in the documentation on filters.mode, when set to "off", filters aren't sent to the server. 2. Verify filter behavior Check that your filter behavior is set correctly:

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable({
  filters: {
    defaultBehavior: "replace" // Use "replace" to ensure old filters are removed
  }
});

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable({
  filters: {
    defaultBehavior: "replace" // Use "replace" to ensure old filters are removed
  }
});

This ensures that when you set a new filter, it completely replaces any existing filters rather than trying to merge them, as documented in the filters.defaultBehavior documentation. 3. Use syncWithLocation for debugging Enable syncWithLocation to see the filters in the URL, which can help debug what's actually being sent:

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable({
  syncWithLocation: true
});

const { tableProps, tableQueryResult, setFilters } = useTable({
  syncWithLocation: true
});

This will show the filters in the URL, making it easier to confirm what's being sent to the server. 4. Check for filter application timing issues As mentioned in GitHub Issue #6712, there have been issues with filters not being applied on initialization. Make sure your filters are being properly applied before the refetch happens:

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  // Apply filter first
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male"
    }
  ]);
  
  // Use setTimeout to ensure filter is applied before refetch
  setTimeout(() => {
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  }, 0);
};

const handleParentSelect = (parentId) => {
  // Apply filter first
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: "male"
    }
  ]);
  
  // Use setTimeout to ensure filter is applied before refetch
  setTimeout(() => {
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  }, 0);
};

If you're still experiencing issues, it might be helpful to examine the network requests in your browser's developer tools to see exactly what parameters are being sent to the server when the refetch occurs. This can help identify if the filter is being included in the request at all. Also, consider checking if there are any custom data provider implementations or middleware that might be affecting how filters are processed. Let me know if any of these approaches help resolve the issue! ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai here am using three different methods to apply the filters but nothing gets applied it only gets applied when the onClose function of the ComboBox gets triggered please help

message.txt

kapa.ai•2mo ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on your description, it sounds like you're experiencing an issue where filters are only being applied when the ComboBox's onClose event is triggered, but not when you're trying to apply them programmatically through other methods. This is a known behavior in refine that has been reported in similar issues. For example, in GitHub Issue #1711, there was a bug where "filters won't apply if the popup has been dismissed. Only filters with immediate application will work." Here are some potential solutions to address this issue: 1. Trigger the filter application explicitly after ComboBox selection Instead of trying to apply the filter immediately when a value is selected, you might need to wait for the ComboBox to properly close:

const handleParentSelect = (value) => {
  // Store the selected value
  setSelectedParent(value);
  
  // Don't apply filter here - wait for onClose
};

const handleComboBoxClose = () => {
  // Apply the filter when the ComboBox closes
  if (selectedParent) {
    setFilters([
      {
        field: "gender",
        operator: "eq",
        value: "male"
      }
    ], "replace");
    
    // Then refetch
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  }
};

const handleParentSelect = (value) => {
  // Store the selected value
  setSelectedParent(value);
  
  // Don't apply filter here - wait for onClose
};

const handleComboBoxClose = () => {
  // Apply the filter when the ComboBox closes
  if (selectedParent) {
    setFilters([
      {
        field: "gender",
        operator: "eq",
        value: "male"
      }
    ], "replace");
    
    // Then refetch
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  }
};

2. Use a form with a submit button Instead of trying to apply filters immediately on selection, consider using a form approach with a submit button:

const [filterValues, setFilterValues] = useState({
  parent: null,
  gender: null
});

const handleSubmitFilters = () => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: filterValues.gender
    }
  ], "replace");
  
  tableQueryResult.refetch();
};
// In your render:
// <ComboBox onChange={(value) => setFilterValues({...filterValues, parent: value})} />
// <Button onClick={handleSubmitFilters}>Apply Filters</Button>

const [filterValues, setFilterValues] = useState({
  parent: null,
  gender: null
});

const handleSubmitFilters = () => {
  setFilters([
    {
      field: "gender",
      operator: "eq",
      value: filterValues.gender
    }
  ], "replace");
  
  tableQueryResult.refetch();
};
// In your render:
// <ComboBox onChange={(value) => setFilterValues({...filterValues, parent: value})} />
// <Button onClick={handleSubmitFilters}>Apply Filters</Button>

3. Use a controlled approach with useEffect You can try using a controlled approach with useEffect to apply filters when certain state changes:

const [selectedParent, setSelectedParent] = useState(null);
const [shouldApplyFilter, setShouldApplyFilter] = useState(false);

useEffect(() => {
  if (selectedParent && shouldApplyFilter) {
    setFilters([
      {
        field: "gender",
        operator: "eq",
        value: "male"
      }
    ], "replace");
    
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
    setShouldApplyFilter(false);
  }
}, [selectedParent, shouldApplyFilter]);

const handleParentSelect = (value) => {
  setSelectedParent(value);
  setShouldApplyFilter(true);
};

const [selectedParent, setSelectedParent] = useState(null);
const [shouldApplyFilter, setShouldApplyFilter] = useState(false);

useEffect(() => {
  if (selectedParent && shouldApplyFilter) {
    setFilters([
      {
        field: "gender",
        operator: "eq",
        value: "male"
      }
    ], "replace");
    
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
    setShouldApplyFilter(false);
  }
}, [selectedParent, shouldApplyFilter]);

const handleParentSelect = (value) => {
  setSelectedParent(value);
  setShouldApplyFilter(true);
};

4. Check if your ComboBox implementation is compatible Some UI libraries have specific ways of handling selection events. Make sure you're using the correct event handlers for your specific UI library (Ant Design, Material UI, etc.). For example, with Ant Design's Select component, you might need to use both onChange and onSelect properly:

<Select
  onChange={(value) => {
    console.log("onChange triggered", value);
  }}
  onSelect={(value) => {
    console.log("onSelect triggered", value);
    // Apply filter here
    setFilters([...]);
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  }}
/>

<Select
  onChange={(value) => {
    console.log("onChange triggered", value);
  }}
  onSelect={(value) => {
    console.log("onSelect triggered", value);
    // Apply filter here
    setFilters([...]);
    tableQueryResult.refetch();
  }}
/>

If you're still experiencing issues, it might be helpful to share more details about your specific UI components and implementation so I can provide more targeted advice. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i want to get the current language using the code below but i get the below error so please tell my how to get the current language and hwo to edit it am using next root layout code: import { DevtoolsProvider } from "@providers/devtools"; import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core"; import { RefineKbar, RefineKbarProvider } from "@refinedev/kbar"; import routerProvider from "@refinedev/nextjs-router"; import { Metadata } from "next"; import React, { Suspense } from "react"; import { Toaster } from "react-hot-toast"; import packageJson from "../../package.json"; import { authProviderClient } from "@providers/auth-provider"; import { dataProvider } from "@providers/data-provider"; import "@styles/global.css"; import { User, Users, UserCheck, BookOpen, LayoutDashboard, } from "lucide-react"; import { RefineClient } from "./refine-client"; import { useTranslation } from "@refinedev/core"; export const metadata: Metadata = { title: "NANMU Admin", description: "Generated by create refine app", icons: { icon: "/favicon.ico", }, }; //console.log = () => {}; export default function RootLayout({ children, }: Readonly<{ children: React.ReactNode; }>) { const { translate, getLocale, changeLocale } = useTranslation(); const currentLocale = getLocale(); return ( <html lang={currentLocale} dir={currentLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}> <body> <Suspense> <RefineClient>{children}</RefineClient> </Suspense> </body> </html> ); } error: Error: (0 , _refinedev_coreWEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_4.useTranslation) is not a function

kapa.ai•3w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I can see you're having an issue with the useTranslation hook in your Next.js application with refine. The error message indicates that useTranslation is not a function when imported from @refinedev/core. This is because in refine, the correct way to access translation functionality is through separate hooks rather than a single useTranslation function. Let me explain how to fix this: How to get the current language in refine Instead of importing useTranslation from @refinedev/core, you should use the specific hooks:

import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

Here's how to modify your code:

import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: Readonly<{
  children: React.ReactNode;
}>) {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale(); // This gets the current language
  
  return (
    <html lang={currentLocale} dir={currentLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      <body>
        <Suspense>
          <RefineClient>{children}</RefineClient>
        </Suspense>
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: Readonly<{
  children: React.ReactNode;
}>) {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale(); // This gets the current language
  
  return (
    <html lang={currentLocale} dir={currentLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      <body>
        <Suspense>
          <RefineClient>{children}</RefineClient>
        </Suspense>
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

Important note for Next.js Since you're using Next.js with the App Router, there's an additional consideration. The hooks from refine can only be used in client components because they rely on React context. Your RootLayout is likely a server component by default. You need to either: 1. Convert your layout to a client component by adding "use client"; at the top:

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
// rest of your code

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
// rest of your code

2. Or better, create a separate client component for handling the locale:

// LocaleProvider.tsx (client component)
"use client";
import { useGetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
export const LocaleProvider = ({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  return (
    <html lang={currentLocale} dir={currentLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      {children}
    </html>
  );
};

// LocaleProvider.tsx (client component)
"use client";
import { useGetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
export const LocaleProvider = ({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  return (
    <html lang={currentLocale} dir={currentLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      {children}
    </html>
  );
};

Then use it in your RootLayout:

// RootLayout.tsx (server component)
import { LocaleProvider } from "./LocaleProvider";

export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: Readonly<{
  children: React.ReactNode;
}>) {
  return (
    <LocaleProvider>
      <body>
        <Suspense>
          <RefineClient>{children}</RefineClient>
        </Suspense>
      </body>
    </LocaleProvider>
  );
}

// RootLayout.tsx (server component)
import { LocaleProvider } from "./LocaleProvider";

export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: Readonly<{
  children: React.ReactNode;
}>) {
  return (
    <LocaleProvider>
      <body>
        <Suspense>
          <RefineClient>{children}</RefineClient>
        </Suspense>
      </body>
    </LocaleProvider>
  );
}

This issue is similar to what was discussed in GitHub Issue #6108 where there were challenges with i18n in Next.js applications. Let me know if you need further clarification on implementing internationalization in your refine Next.js application! ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

great it wokrs it retrives it successfully now i want to be able to change the locale i use this way but it is not a presistant way when i refresh it resets the language @kapa.ai

kapa.ai•3w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I'm glad to hear that retrieving the locale is working successfully! Now let's address the issue with persisting the language selection across page refreshes. When you change the locale in refine, it doesn't automatically persist between browser sessions. To make the language selection persistent, you need to store the selected language somewhere that survives page refreshes, like localStorage or cookies. Here's how you can implement a persistent language selection: Using localStorage to persist language selection

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import { useEffect } from "react";

export const LocaleProvider = ({ children }) => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  // Load saved locale on initial render
  useEffect(() => {
    const savedLocale = localStorage.getItem("locale");
    if (savedLocale && savedLocale !== currentLocale) {
      changeLocale(savedLocale);
    }
  }, []);
  
  // Create a wrapper function to change locale and save to localStorage
  const handleChangeLocale = (newLocale) => {
    localStorage.setItem("locale", newLocale);
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <html lang={currentLocale} dir={currentLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      {children}
    </html>
  );
};

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import { useEffect } from "react";

export const LocaleProvider = ({ children }) => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  // Load saved locale on initial render
  useEffect(() => {
    const savedLocale = localStorage.getItem("locale");
    if (savedLocale && savedLocale !== currentLocale) {
      changeLocale(savedLocale);
    }
  }, []);
  
  // Create a wrapper function to change locale and save to localStorage
  const handleChangeLocale = (newLocale) => {
    localStorage.setItem("locale", newLocale);
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <html lang={currentLocale} dir={currentLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      {children}
    </html>
  );
};

Then, when you want to change the language in your components, use the handleChangeLocale function instead of directly using changeLocale:

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  const handleChangeLocale = (newLocale) => {
    localStorage.setItem("locale", newLocale);
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleChangeLocale("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleChangeLocale("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  const handleChangeLocale = (newLocale) => {
    localStorage.setItem("locale", newLocale);
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleChangeLocale("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleChangeLocale("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

This approach is similar to what's shown in the header component example from the refine documentation, where language selection is implemented with a dropdown menu Documentation on header component. For Next.js specific implementation If you're using Next.js with the App Router, you might want to consider using cookies instead of localStorage to make the language selection work on both client and server:

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import { useEffect } from "react";
import { setCookie, getCookie } from "cookies-next"; // You'll need to install this package

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  useEffect(() => {
    const savedLocale = getCookie("locale");
    if (savedLocale && savedLocale !== currentLocale) {
      changeLocale(savedLocale);
    }
  }, []);
  
  const handleChangeLocale = (newLocale) => {
    setCookie("locale", newLocale, { maxAge: 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 }); // 30 days
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleChangeLocale("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleChangeLocale("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import { useEffect } from "react";
import { setCookie, getCookie } from "cookies-next"; // You'll need to install this package

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  useEffect(() => {
    const savedLocale = getCookie("locale");
    if (savedLocale && savedLocale !== currentLocale) {
      changeLocale(savedLocale);
    }
  }, []);
  
  const handleChangeLocale = (newLocale) => {
    setCookie("locale", newLocale, { maxAge: 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 }); // 30 days
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleChangeLocale("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleChangeLocale("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

This approach will ensure that your language selection persists across page refreshes and works properly in the Next.js environment. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai ok can you explain how things work why do i need refine built in useGetLocale and useSetLocale if i am already using cookies

kapa.ai•3w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Great question! Let me explain how refine's internationalization system works and why you might still need useGetLocale and useSetLocale even when using cookies. How refine's i18n system works Refine has a built-in internationalization system that works through the i18nProvider which is passed to the <Refine> component. This provider has three main functions: 1. translate: Converts keys to localized text 2. changeLocale: Changes the current locale 3. getLocale: Returns the current locale When you use useGetLocale and useSetLocale hooks, you're accessing these functions from the i18n provider Documentation > Docs > Core > <Refine>. Why you need both cookies and refine's hooks Even if you're using cookies to persist the language selection, you still need refine's hooks for these reasons: 1. State management: The useGetLocale and useSetLocale hooks manage the current locale state within refine's context system. This ensures all components have access to the current locale. 2. UI updates: When you call changeLocale() through useSetLocale(), refine triggers re-renders of components that depend on the current locale, ensuring your UI updates properly. 3. Integration with translation libraries: Refine's i18n system integrates with translation libraries like i18next, as shown in this example:

const { t, i18n } = useTranslation();

const i18nProvider: I18nProvider = {
  translate: (key, params) => t(key, params).toString(),
  changeLocale: (lang: string | undefined) => i18n.changeLanguage(lang),
  getLocale: () => i18n.language,
};

const { t, i18n } = useTranslation();

const i18nProvider: I18nProvider = {
  translate: (key, params) => t(key, params).toString(),
  changeLocale: (lang: string | undefined) => i18n.changeLanguage(lang),
  getLocale: () => i18n.language,
};

Documentation > Overview of the Refine structure How to use both together The ideal approach is to use both systems together: 1. Use cookies to persist the user's language preference between sessions 2. Use refine's hooks to: - Load the initial locale from cookies - Update the UI when locale changes - Access the current locale in components Here's a practical implementation:

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import { useEffect } from "react";

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  // On initial load, check cookies and set refine's locale
  useEffect(() => {
    const cookieLocale = document.cookie
      .split('; ')
      .find(row => row.startsWith('locale='))
      ?.split('=')[1];
      
    if (cookieLocale && cookieLocale !== currentLocale) {
      changeLocale(cookieLocale);
    }
  }, []);
  
  // When changing language, update both cookie and refine's state
  const handleLanguageChange = (newLocale) => {
    // Update cookie
    document.cookie = `locale=${newLocale}; max-age=${30*24*60*60}; path=/`;
    
    // Update refine's state
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

"use client";
import { useGetLocale, useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import { useEffect } from "react";

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const getLocale = useGetLocale();
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  const currentLocale = getLocale();
  
  // On initial load, check cookies and set refine's locale
  useEffect(() => {
    const cookieLocale = document.cookie
      .split('; ')
      .find(row => row.startsWith('locale='))
      ?.split('=')[1];
      
    if (cookieLocale && cookieLocale !== currentLocale) {
      changeLocale(cookieLocale);
    }
  }, []);
  
  // When changing language, update both cookie and refine's state
  const handleLanguageChange = (newLocale) => {
    // Update cookie
    document.cookie = `locale=${newLocale}; max-age=${30*24*60*60}; path=/`;
    
    // Update refine's state
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

This approach gives you the best of both worlds - persistence through cookies and proper UI updates through refine's internationalization system. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai ok after saving in the the new locales in the cookies using the LanguageSwitcher i want to retrieve the cookies in the root layout so i could add the language and rtl in the html tag and i want you to provide example for using the cookies in client side and in server side

kapa.ai•3w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I'll show you how to retrieve cookies in both client and server components to set the language and RTL direction in your root layout with refine. Client-side cookie access For client components, you can directly access cookies:

"use client";
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";

export function ClientLocaleProvider({ children }) {
  const [locale, setLocale] = useState("en");
  
  useEffect(() => {
    // Get locale from cookie on client side
    const cookieLocale = document.cookie
      .split('; ')
      .find(row => row.startsWith('locale='))
      ?.split('=')[1];
    
    if (cookieLocale) {
      setLocale(cookieLocale);
    }
  }, []);
  
  return (
    <html lang={locale} dir={locale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      {children}
    </html>
  );
}

"use client";
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";

export function ClientLocaleProvider({ children }) {
  const [locale, setLocale] = useState("en");
  
  useEffect(() => {
    // Get locale from cookie on client side
    const cookieLocale = document.cookie
      .split('; ')
      .find(row => row.startsWith('locale='))
      ?.split('=')[1];
    
    if (cookieLocale) {
      setLocale(cookieLocale);
    }
  }, []);
  
  return (
    <html lang={locale} dir={locale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      {children}
    </html>
  );
}

Server-side cookie access For server components in Next.js, you can use the built-in cookies function:

// RootLayout.tsx (server component)
import { cookies } from 'next/headers';

export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}) {
  // Get locale from cookie on server side
  const cookieStore = cookies();
  const locale = cookieStore.get('locale')?.value || 'en';
  
  return (
    <html lang={locale} dir={locale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      <body>
        {children}
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

// RootLayout.tsx (server component)
import { cookies } from 'next/headers';

export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}) {
  // Get locale from cookie on server side
  const cookieStore = cookies();
  const locale = cookieStore.get('locale')?.value || 'en';
  
  return (
    <html lang={locale} dir={locale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      <body>
        {children}
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

Combined approach for refine Since refine's internationalization system needs to be aware of the locale, you should combine both approaches:

// RootLayout.tsx (server component)
import { cookies } from 'next/headers';
import { LocaleInitializer } from './LocaleInitializer';
export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}) {
  // Get locale from cookie on server side for initial HTML
  const cookieStore = cookies();
  const initialLocale = cookieStore.get('locale')?.value || 'en';
  
  return (
    <html lang={initialLocale} dir={initialLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      <body>
        <LocaleInitializer initialLocale={initialLocale}>
          {children}
        </LocaleInitializer>
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

// RootLayout.tsx (server component)
import { cookies } from 'next/headers';
import { LocaleInitializer } from './LocaleInitializer';
export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}) {
  // Get locale from cookie on server side for initial HTML
  const cookieStore = cookies();
  const initialLocale = cookieStore.get('locale')?.value || 'en';
  
  return (
    <html lang={initialLocale} dir={initialLocale === "ar" ? "rtl" : "ltr"}>
      <body>
        <LocaleInitializer initialLocale={initialLocale}>
          {children}
        </LocaleInitializer>
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

// LocaleInitializer.tsx (client component)
"use client";
import { useEffect } from "react";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

export function LocaleInitializer({ 
  children, 
  initialLocale 
}: { 
  children: React.ReactNode;
  initialLocale: string;
}) {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  // Initialize refine's locale system with the server-provided locale
  useEffect(() => {
    changeLocale(initialLocale);
  }, [initialLocale]);
  
  return <>{children}</>;
}

// LocaleInitializer.tsx (client component)
"use client";
import { useEffect } from "react";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

export function LocaleInitializer({ 
  children, 
  initialLocale 
}: { 
  children: React.ReactNode;
  initialLocale: string;
}) {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  // Initialize refine's locale system with the server-provided locale
  useEffect(() => {
    changeLocale(initialLocale);
  }, [initialLocale]);
  
  return <>{children}</>;
}

This approach ensures: 1. The initial HTML has the correct language and direction attributes 2. Refine's i18n system is synchronized with the cookie value 3. The UI will update properly when the language changes For RTL support specifically, refine has examples showing how to implement it properly, as mentioned in GitHub Issue #1198 and demonstrated in the customization-rtl example. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I'll provide examples of how to save locale in cookies for both client and server-side in a refine application. Client-side: Saving locale in cookies Here's how you can save the locale in cookies on the client side:

"use client";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  const handleLanguageChange = (newLocale) => {
    // Save to cookies
    document.cookie = `locale=${newLocale}; max-age=${30*24*60*60}; path=/`;
    
    // Update refine's locale
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

"use client";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  const handleLanguageChange = (newLocale) => {
    // Save to cookies
    document.cookie = `locale=${newLocale}; max-age=${30*24*60*60}; path=/`;
    
    // Update refine's locale
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

For a more robust approach, you can use the js-cookie library:

"use client";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import Cookies from 'js-cookie';

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  const handleLanguageChange = (newLocale) => {
    // Save to cookies with js-cookie
    Cookies.set('locale', newLocale, { expires: 30 }); // 30 days
    
    // Update refine's locale
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

"use client";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import Cookies from 'js-cookie';

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  const handleLanguageChange = (newLocale) => {
    // Save to cookies with js-cookie
    Cookies.set('locale', newLocale, { expires: 30 }); // 30 days
    
    // Update refine's locale
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

Server-side: Saving locale in cookies For server-side cookie management in Next.js, you can use the built-in cookies functions:

// app/api/set-locale/route.ts
import { cookies } from 'next/headers';
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';
export async function POST(request: Request) {
  const { locale } = await request.json();
  
  // Set cookie
  cookies().set('locale', locale, { 
    maxAge: 30 * 24 * 60 * 60,
    path: '/'
  });
  
  return NextResponse.json({ success: true });
}

// app/api/set-locale/route.ts
import { cookies } from 'next/headers';
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';
export async function POST(request: Request) {
  const { locale } = await request.json();
  
  // Set cookie
  cookies().set('locale', locale, { 
    maxAge: 30 * 24 * 60 * 60,
    path: '/'
  });
  
  return NextResponse.json({ success: true });
}

Then call this API route from your client component:

"use client";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  const handleLanguageChange = async (newLocale) => {
    // Save to cookies via API route
    await fetch('/api/set-locale', {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({ locale: newLocale }),
    });
    
    // Update refine's locale
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

"use client";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  const handleLanguageChange = async (newLocale) => {
    // Save to cookies via API route
    await fetch('/api/set-locale', {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({ locale: newLocale }),
    });
    
    // Update refine's locale
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

Using cookies-next package For a unified approach that works in both client and server components, you can use the cookies-next package:

"use client";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import { setCookie } from 'cookies-next';

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  const handleLanguageChange = (newLocale) => {
    // Save to cookies with cookies-next
    setCookie('locale', newLocale, { 
      maxAge: 30 * 24 * 60 * 60,
      path: '/'
    });
    
    // Update refine's locale
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

"use client";
import { useSetLocale } from "@refinedev/core";
import { setCookie } from 'cookies-next';

export const LanguageSwitcher = () => {
  const changeLocale = useSetLocale();
  
  const handleLanguageChange = (newLocale) => {
    // Save to cookies with cookies-next
    setCookie('locale', newLocale, { 
      maxAge: 30 * 24 * 60 * 60,
      path: '/'
    });
    
    // Update refine's locale
    changeLocale(newLocale);
  };
  
  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("en")}>English</button>
      <button onClick={() => handleLanguageChange("ar")}>Arabic</button>
    </div>
  );
};

This approach is similar to what's shown in the refine documentation for handling language selection in the header component Documentation on header component, but with the added persistence through cookies. Remember to install any required packages: - For js-cookie: npm install js-cookie @types/js-cookie - For cookies-next: npm install cookies-next These examples should give you a solid foundation for implementing persistent locale selection in your refine application. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai what if i need to have a context api that is accessable throught out my app what is the best way to do that?

kapa.ai•2w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Creating a Global Context API in Refine To create a context API that's accessible throughout your refine application, you have several approaches that align well with refine's architecture. Refine itself uses React Context API under the hood for its core functionality. 1. Create a Custom Context Provider You can create a custom context provider that wraps your application:

// context/my-context.tsx
import React, { createContext, useContext, useState } from "react";

// Define your context type
type MyContextType = {
  someState: string;
  setSomeState: (value: string) => void;
};

// Create context with default values
const MyContext = createContext<MyContextType>({
  someState: "",
  setSomeState: () => {},
});

// Create a provider component
export const MyContextProvider: React.FC<{ children: React.ReactNode }> = ({ 
  children 
}) => {
  const [someState, setSomeState] = useState("");
  
  return (
    <MyContext.Provider value={{ someState, setSomeState }}>
      {children}
    </MyContext.Provider>
  );
};

// Create a custom hook for using this context
export const useMyContext = () => useContext(MyContext);

// context/my-context.tsx
import React, { createContext, useContext, useState } from "react";

// Define your context type
type MyContextType = {
  someState: string;
  setSomeState: (value: string) => void;
};

// Create context with default values
const MyContext = createContext<MyContextType>({
  someState: "",
  setSomeState: () => {},
});

// Create a provider component
export const MyContextProvider: React.FC<{ children: React.ReactNode }> = ({ 
  children 
}) => {
  const [someState, setSomeState] = useState("");
  
  return (
    <MyContext.Provider value={{ someState, setSomeState }}>
      {children}
    </MyContext.Provider>
  );
};

// Create a custom hook for using this context
export const useMyContext = () => useContext(MyContext);

Then wrap your application with this provider in your App.tsx:

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";
import { MyContextProvider } from "./context/my-context";

function App() {
  return (
    <MyContextProvider>
      <Refine
        // your refine configuration
      >
        {/* your app components */}
      </Refine>
    </MyContextProvider>
  );
}

import { Refine } from "@refinedev/core";
import { MyContextProvider } from "./context/my-context";

function App() {
  return (
    <MyContextProvider>
      <Refine
        // your refine configuration
      >
        {/* your app components */}
      </Refine>
    </MyContextProvider>
  );
}

This approach is demonstrated in refine's documentation where they show how to create a color mode context provider Documentation > Overview of the Refine structure. 2. Use a Custom Hook with Context For more complex state management, you can combine useReducer with context:

// context/product.context.tsx
import React, { createContext, useContext, useReducer } from "react";

// Define your state and actions
type ProductData = {
  products: any[];
  favorites: number[];
};

type ProductAction = 
  | { type: "ADD_PRODUCT"; product: any }
  | { type: "TOGGLE_FAVORITE"; id: number };

// Create a reducer
const productReducer = (state: ProductData, action: ProductAction): ProductData => {

This pattern is shown in the refine blog about using context API for sharing data Blog > A Guide to useContext and React Context API. Best Practices for Context in Refine 1. Place providers in the right order: If your context depends on refine's providers, place your context provider inside the <Refine> component. If refine depends on your context, place it outside. 2. Create custom hooks: Always create a custom hook (like useMyContext) to access your context, which makes it easier to use and maintain. 3. Consider performance: For large applications, consider splitting your context into smaller, more focused contexts to prevent unnecessary re-renders. 4. Use with refine's data flow: Your custom context can work alongside refine's data providers and hooks for a more powerful application. This approach gives you a global state that's accessible throughout your application while maintaining the benefits of refine's architecture. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai if i want to add users by inviting them by email using supabase and when they recive the email i want them to be redirected to update-password page. all that is done already what is missing is reading the hash data when the user goes to update-password update-password: auth-provider-client:

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I can help you implement the functionality to read hash data when users are redirected to the update-password page after receiving an invitation email in a refine application using Supabase. When Supabase sends an invitation email, it includes a token in the URL hash that you need to capture and use in your updatePassword method. Here's how to implement this: Reading Hash Data in the Update Password Page First, you need to modify your update-password page to read the hash data:

"use client";
import { AuthPage } from "@refinedev/antd"; // or your UI framework
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { useLocation } from "react-router-dom";

export const UpdatePasswordPage = () => {
  const [token, setToken] = useState("");
  const location = useLocation();

  useEffect(() => {
    // Extract token from URL hash
    const hash = location.hash.substring(1); // Remove the # character
    const params = new URLSearchParams(hash);
    const accessToken = params.get("access_token");
    
    if (accessToken) {
      setToken(accessToken);
      // You can also store this in sessionStorage if needed
      sessionStorage.setItem("supabaseToken", accessToken);
    }
  }, [location]);

  return (
    <AuthPage 
      type="updatePassword" 
      // Pass the token as a custom prop
      formProps={{
        initialValues: {
          token: token,
        },
      }}
    />
  );
};

"use client";
import { AuthPage } from "@refinedev/antd"; // or your UI framework
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { useLocation } from "react-router-dom";

export const UpdatePasswordPage = () => {
  const [token, setToken] = useState("");
  const location = useLocation();

  useEffect(() => {
    // Extract token from URL hash
    const hash = location.hash.substring(1); // Remove the # character
    const params = new URLSearchParams(hash);
    const accessToken = params.get("access_token");
    
    if (accessToken) {
      setToken(accessToken);
      // You can also store this in sessionStorage if needed
      sessionStorage.setItem("supabaseToken", accessToken);
    }
  }, [location]);

  return (
    <AuthPage 
      type="updatePassword" 
      // Pass the token as a custom prop
      formProps={{
        initialValues: {
          token: token,
        },
      }}
    />
  );
};

Updating Your Auth Provider to Use the Token Then, modify your auth provider to use this token in the updatePassword method:

const authProvider = {
  // ...other methods
  
  updatePassword: async ({ password, token }) => {
    try {
      // If token is passed directly from the form
      let accessToken = token;
      
      // If not, try to get it from sessionStorage (as a fallback)
      if (!accessToken) {
        accessToken = sessionStorage.getItem("supabaseToken");
      }
      
      if (!accessToken) {
        return {
          success: false,
          error: {
            name: "Token Error",
            message: "No access token found",
          },
        };
      }
      
      // Set the session with the token before updating the password
      const { error: sessionError } = await supabaseClient.auth.setSession({
        access_token: accessToken,
        refresh_token: "",
      });
      
      if (sessionError) {
        return {
          success: false,
          error: sessionError,
        };
      }
      
      // Now update the password
      const { data, error } = await supabaseClient.auth.updateUser({
        password,
      });
      
      if (error) {
        return {
          success: false,
          error,
        };
      }
      
      if (data) {
        // Clear the token from sessionStorage
        sessionStorage.removeItem("supabaseToken");
        
        return {
          success: true,
          redirectTo: "/", // Redirect to home or login page
        };
      }
    } catch (error) {
      return {
        success: false,
        error,
      };
    }
    
    return {
      success: false,
      error: {
        name: "Update Password Error",
        message: "Failed to update password",
      },
    };
  },
  
  // ...other methods
};

const authProvider = {
  // ...other methods
  
  updatePassword: async ({ password, token }) => {
    try {
      // If token is passed directly from the form
      let accessToken = token;
      
      // If not, try to get it from sessionStorage (as a fallback)
      if (!accessToken) {
        accessToken = sessionStorage.getItem("supabaseToken");
      }
      
      if (!accessToken) {
        return {
          success: false,
          error: {
            name: "Token Error",
            message: "No access token found",
          },
        };
      }
      
      // Set the session with the token before updating the password
      const { error: sessionError } = await supabaseClient.auth.setSession({
        access_token: accessToken,
        refresh_token: "",
      });
      
      if (sessionError) {
        return {
          success: false,
          error: sessionError,
        };
      }
      
      // Now update the password
      const { data, error } = await supabaseClient.auth.updateUser({
        password,
      });
      
      if (error) {
        return {
          success: false,
          error,
        };
      }
      
      if (data) {
        // Clear the token from sessionStorage
        sessionStorage.removeItem("supabaseToken");
        
        return {
          success: true,
          redirectTo: "/", // Redirect to home or login page
        };
      }
    } catch (error) {
      return {
        success: false,
        error,
      };
    }
    
    return {
      success: false,
      error: {
        name: "Update Password Error",
        message: "Failed to update password",
      },
    };
  },
  
  // ...other methods
};

This implementation follows the pattern shown in the Supabase auth provider documentation and is adapted to handle the token from invitation emails. The flow works like this: 1. User receives invitation email and clicks the link 2. They're redirected to your update-password page with a token in the URL hash 3. Your page extracts this token and passes it to the AuthPage component 4. When the user submits the form, the token is passed to the updatePassword method 5. The auth provider uses this token to set the session before updating the password This approach ensures that the user can set their password after being invited, completing the invitation flow. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

{ name: "parents", list: "/parents", create: "/parents/create", edit: "/parents/edit/:id", show: "/parents/show/:id", meta: { icon: <UserCheck />, canDelete: true, parent: "profile", }, }, when i access ehte edit page there is a fetch api get called right? @kapa.ai

kapa.ai•2d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, when you access the edit page for a resource in refine (such as /parents/edit/:id), a fetch API GET request is made to retrieve the data for the specific record you want to edit. This is handled automatically by refine's form hooks (like useForm), which fetch the record by its ID and populate the form with the existing data. This behavior is described in the documentation and examples, such as:

It also makes a request to the /products/:id endpoint with the GET method when the hook is mounted. It fetches the product with the given id and fills the form with the fetched data. When the form is submitted, it makes a request to the /products/:id endpoint with the PATCH method.

useForm hook can distinguish between the create and edit operations by checking the resource definition. If the resource definition has an edit path, it assumes that the form is used for editing an existing record. Otherwise, it assumes that the form is used for creating a new record.

Building a React Admin Panel with PrimeReact and Refine So, when you navigate to /parents/edit/:id, refine will automatically fetch the parent record with the specified id to populate the edit form. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

is there a way to disable that? @kapa.ai

kapa.ai•2d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, you can disable the automatic fetch when accessing the edit page by using the queryOptions.enabled: false property in the useForm hook. This prevents refine from making the initial GET request to fetch the record data. Here’s how you can do it:

useForm({
  refineCoreProps: {
    queryOptions: {
      enabled: false,
    },
  },
  // ...other props
});

useForm({
  refineCoreProps: {
    queryOptions: {
      enabled: false,
    },
  },
  // ...other props
});

This approach is confirmed in the Discord support thread, where it’s explained that setting queryOptions.enabled: false disables the automatic fetching of data in edit mode, allowing you to control when and how data is fetched or populated in the form Discord support thread: Form initial default values on Edit. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

kapa.ai•2d ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Your input fields are not getting prefilled with data because you have set queryOptions.enabled: false in your useForm hook. This disables the automatic fetching of the record data when the edit page is loaded, so the form does not receive any initial values to prefill the fields. As explained in the Discord support thread, when you disable the query with queryOptions.enabled: false, you must manually provide the default values to the form, either by fetching the data yourself and passing it as defaultValues, or by some other means. If you do not provide these values, the form fields will remain empty because refine is not fetching the data for you:

you can set disable useForm fetching with queryOptions.enabled: false and you can use defaultValues
Discord support thread: Form initial default values on Edit

So, to prefill your input fields, you need to either: - Remove queryOptions.enabled: false to let refine fetch and prefill the data automatically, or - Manually fetch the data and provide it to the form via the defaultValues property. If you choose the second approach, make sure your defaultValues are set correctly after fetching the data. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
