Edit

<Edit> provides us a layout for displaying the page. It does not contain any logic but adds extra functionalities like a <RefreshButton>.

We will show what <Edit> does using properties with examples.

localhost:3000/posts/edit/123
Live previews only work with the latest documentation.
import React from "react";
import {
Edit,
useAutocomplete,
TextField,
Autocomplete,
Box,
} from "@pankod/refine-mui";
import { useForm, Controller } from "@pankod/refine-react-hook-form";

const SampleEdit = () => {
const {
saveButtonProps,
refineCore: { queryResult },
register,
control,
formState: { errors },
} = useForm();

const samplesData = queryResult?.data?.data;

const { autocompleteProps: categoryAutocompleteProps } = useAutocomplete({
resource: "categories",
defaultValue: samplesData?.category?.id,
});

return (
<Edit saveButtonProps={saveButtonProps}>
<Box
component="form"
sx={{ display: "flex", flexDirection: "column" }}
autoComplete="off"

<TextField

field.onChange(value);
}}
getOptionLabel={(item) => {

}}
isOptionEqualToValue={(option, value) =>

Swizzle

You can swizzle this component to customize it with the refine CLI

Properties

title

It allows adding title inside the <Edit> component. if you don't pass title props it uses "Edit" prefix and singular resource name by default. For example, for the /posts/edit resource, it will be "Edit post".

localhost:3000/posts/create
Live previews only work with the latest documentation.
import { Edit, Typography } from "@pankod/refine-mui";

const EditPage: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Edit
title={<Typography variant="h5">Custom Title</Typography>}
>
<span>Rest of your page here</span>
</Edit>
);
};

resource

The <Edit> component reads the resource information from the route by default. This default behavior will not work on custom pages. If you want to use the <Edit> component in a custom page, you can use the resource prop.

Refer to the custom pages documentation for detailed usage.

localhost:3000/custom
Live previews only work with the latest documentation.
import { Refine } from "@pankod/refine-core";
import { Edit, Layout } from "@pankod/refine-mui";
import routerProvider from "@pankod/refine-react-router-v6";
import dataProvider from "@pankod/refine-simple-rest";

const CustomPage: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Edit resource="posts" recordItemId={123}>
<span>Rest of your page here</span>
</Edit>
);
};

const App: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Refine
routerProvider={{
...routerProvider,
routes: [
{
element: <CustomPage />,
path: "/custom",
},
],
}}
Layout={Layout}
dataProvider={dataProvider("https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev")}
resources={[{ name: "posts" }]}
/>
);
};

saveButtonProps

The <Edit> component has a save button by default. If you want to customize this button you can use the saveButtonProps property like the code below.

Clicking on the save button will submit your form.

Refer to the <SaveButton> documentation for detailed usage.

localhost:3000/posts/edit/123
Live previews only work with the latest documentation.
import { Edit } from "@pankod/refine-mui";

const PostEdit: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Edit saveButtonProps={{ size: "small" }}>
<span>Rest of your page here</span>
</Edit>
);
};

canDelete and deleteButtonProps

canDelete allows us to add the delete button inside the <Edit> component. If the resource has the canDelete property, refine adds the delete button by default. If you want to customize this button you can use the deleteButtonProps property like the code below.

When clicked on, the delete button executes the useDelete method provided by the dataProvider.

Refer to the <DeleteButton> documentation for detailed usage.

localhost:3000/posts/edit/123
Live previews only work with the latest documentation.
import { Edit } from "@pankod/refine-mui";
import { usePermissions } from "@pankod/refine-core";

const PostEdit: React.FC = () => {
const { data: permissionsData } = usePermissions();
return (
<Edit
canDelete={permissionsData?.includes("admin")}
deleteButtonProps={{ size: "small" }}
saveButtonProps={{ size: "small" }}
>
<p>Rest of your page here</p>
</Edit>
);
};

Refer to the usePermission documentation for detailed usage.

recordItemId

The <Edit> component reads the id information from the route by default. recordItemId is used when it cannot read from the URL(when used on a custom page, modal or drawer).

localhost:3000/custom
Live previews only work with the latest documentation.
import { Refine } from "@pankod/refine-core";
import { Edit, Layout } from "@pankod/refine-mui";
import routerProvider from "@pankod/refine-react-router-v6";
import dataProvider from "@pankod/refine-simple-rest";

const CustomPage: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Edit resource="posts" recordItemId={123}>
<span>Rest of your page here</span>
</Edit>
);
};

const App: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Refine
routerProvider={{
...routerProvider,
routes: [
{
element: <CustomPage />,
path: "/custom",
},
],
}}
Layout={Layout}
dataProvider={dataProvider("https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev")}
resources={[{ name: "posts" }]}
/>
);
};
NOTE

The <Edit> component needs the id information for the <RefreshButton> to work properly.

mutationMode

Determines which mode mutation will have while executing <DeleteButton>.

Refer to the mutation mode docs for further information.

localhost:3000/posts/edit/123
Live previews only work with the latest documentation.
import React from "react";
import {
Edit,

} from "@pankod/refine-mui";
import { useForm, Controller } from "@pankod/refine-react-hook-form";

const SampleEdit = () => {
const {
saveButtonProps,
refineCore: { queryResult },
register,
control,
formState: { errors },
} = useForm();

const samplesData = queryResult?.data?.data;

const { autocompleteProps: categoryAutocompleteProps } = useAutocomplete({
resource: "categories",
defaultValue: samplesData?.category?.id,
});

return (
<Edit
saveButtonProps={saveButtonProps}
canDelete
mutationMode="undoable"
>
<Box
component="form"
sx={{ display: "flex", flexDirection: "column" }}
autoComplete="off"
>

helperText={(errors as any)?.id?.message}
margin="normal"

disabled
/>
<TextField

})}
error={!!(errors as any)?.title}
helperText={(errors as any)?.title?.message}
margin="normal"
fullWidth
InputLabelProps={{ shrink: true }}
type="text"

render={({ field }) => (
<Autocomplete
{...categoryAutocompleteProps}
{...field}
onChange={(_, value) => {
field.onChange(value);
}}
getOptionLabel={(item) => {
return (
categoryAutocompleteProps?.options?.find(
(p) => p?.id?.toString() === item?.id?.toString(),
)?.title ?? ""
);
}}
isOptionEqualToValue={(option, value) =>
value === undefined ||
option?.id?.toString() === (value?.id ?? value)?.toString()
}
renderInput={(params) => (
<TextField
{...params}
label="Category"
margin="normal"
variant="outlined"
error={!!(errors as any)?.category?.id}
helperText={(errors as any)?.category?.id?.message}
required
/>
)}
/>
)}
/>
</Box>
</Edit>
);
};

dataProviderName

If not specified, Refine will use the default data provider. If you have multiple data providers and want to use a different one, you can use the dataProviderName property.

import { Refine } from "@pankod/refine-core";
import { Edit } from "@pankod/refine-mui";
import routerProvider from "@pankod/refine-react-router-v6";
import dataProvider from "@pankod/refine-simple-rest";

const PostEdit = () => {
return <Edit dataProviderName="other">...</Edit>;
};

export const App: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Refine
routerProvider={routerProvider}
dataProvider={{
default: dataProvider("https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev/"),
other: dataProvider("https://other-api.fake-rest.refine.dev/"),
}}
resources={[{ name: "posts", edit: PostEdit }]}
/>
);
};

goBack

import { Edit, Button } from "@pankod/refine-mui";
import { useNavigation } from "@pankod/refine-core";

const BackButton = () => {
const { goBack } = useNavigation();

return <Button onClick={() => goBack()}>BACK!</Button>;
};

const PostEdit: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Edit
goBack={<BackButton />}
>
<span>Rest of your page here</span>
</Edit>
);
};

isLoading

return (
<Edit
isLoading={loading}
>
<span>Rest of your page here</span>
</Edit>
);
};

To customize or disable the breadcrumb, you can use the breadcrumb property. By default it uses the Breadcrumb component from @pankod/refine-mui package.
