Create

<CreateButton> uses shadcn/ui's <Button> component and the create method from useNavigation under the hood.

It can be useful when redirecting the app to the create page of the resource.

Installation​

npx shadcn@latest add https://ui.refine.dev/r/buttons.json

This will add all button components including CreateButton.

Usage​

import { CreateButton } from "@/components/refine-ui/buttons/create";
import { List } from "@/components/refine-ui/views/list";

const PostList = () => {
  return (
    <List>
      <div className="flex justify-between items-center mb-4">
        <h1>Posts</h1>
        <CreateButton resource="posts" />
      </div>
      {/* Your list content */}
    </List>
  );
};

Properties​

resource​

resource is used to redirect the app to the create action of the given resource name. By default, the app redirects to the inferred resource's create action path.

import { CreateButton } from "@/components/refine-ui/buttons/create";

const MyComponent = () => {
  return <CreateButton resource="categories" />;
};

Clicking the button will trigger the create method of useNavigation and then redirect the app to the create action path of the resource.

meta​

It is used to pass additional parameters to the create method of useNavigation. By default, existing parameters in the route are used by the create method. You can pass additional parameters or override the existing ones using the meta prop.

If the create action route is defined by the pattern: /posts/create/:authorId, the meta prop can be used as follows:

const MyComponent = () => {
  return <CreateButton meta={{ authorId: "10" }} />;
};

hideText​

It is used to show and not show the text of the button. When true, only the button icon is visible.

import { CreateButton } from "@/components/refine-ui/buttons/create";

const MyComponent = () => {
  return <CreateButton hideText={true} />;
};

accessControl​

This prop can be used to skip access control check with its enabled property or to hide the button when the user does not have the permission to access the resource with hideIfUnauthorized property. This is relevant only when an accessControlProvider is provided to <Refine/>.

import { CreateButton } from "@/components/refine-ui/buttons/create";

const MyComponent = () => {
  return (
    <CreateButton
      accessControl={{
        enabled: true,
        hideIfUnauthorized: true,
      }}
    />
  );
};

children​

It is used to change the text of the button. By default, the text is "Create".

import { CreateButton } from "@/components/refine-ui/buttons/create";

const MyComponent = () => {
  return <CreateButton>Add New Post</CreateButton>;
};
