NestJS CRUD

Refine provides a data provider for APIs powered with Nest.js CRUD, a module for Nest.js that provides easier ways to build CRUD RESTful APIs.

Good to know:
  • This library uses axios to handle the requests.
  • To learn more about data fetching in Refine, check out the Data Fetching guide.

Installation

npm i @refinedev/nestjsx-crud

Usage

We'll provide the API url to the dataProvider function to create a data provider.

app.tsx
import Refine from "@refinedev/core";
import dataProvider from "@refinedev/nestjsx-crud";

const App = () => (
<Refine
dataProvider={dataProvider("<API_URL>")}
>
{/* ... */}
</Refine>
);

Authentication

If your API uses authentication, you can easily provide an axios instance with the authentication headers to the dataProvider function via second argument.

App.tsx
import { Refine, AuthProvider } from "@refinedev/core";
/**
* We're using the `axiosInstance` exported from the package
* But you are free to use your own instance with your own configuration.
*/
import dataProvider, { axiosInstance } from "@refinedev/nestjsx-crud";

const authProvider: AuthProvider = {
login: async () => {
// ...
// We're setting the Authorization header when the user logs in.
axiosInstance.defaults.headers.common[
"Authorization"
] = `Bearer ${localStorage.getItem("token")}`;
},
logout: async () => {
// ...
// We're removing the Authorization header when the user logs out.
axiosInstance.defaults.headers.common["Authorization"] = undefined;
},
// ...
};

const App = () => {
return (
<Refine
dataProvider={dataProvider("<API_URL>", axiosInstance)}
authProvider={authProvider}
>
{/* ... */}
</Refine>
);
};
