Delete

<DeleteButton> uses Chakra UI's <Button> and <Popover> components. When you try to delete something, a pop-up shows up and asks for confirmation. When confirmed it executes the useDelete method provided by your dataProvider.

Good to know:

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

Usage​

localhost:3000
import {
  List,
  DeleteButton,
} from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";
import {
  TableContainer,
  Table,
  Thead,
  Tr,
  Th,
  Tbody,
  Td,
} from "@chakra-ui/react";
import { useTable } from "@refinedev/react-table";
import { ColumnDef, flexRender } from "@tanstack/react-table";

const PostList: React.FC = () => {
  const columns = React.useMemo<ColumnDef<IPost>[]>(
    () => [
      {
        id: "id",
        header: "ID",
        accessorKey: "id",
      },
      {
        id: "title",
        header: "Title",
        accessorKey: "title",
      },
      {
        id: "actions",
        header: "Actions",
        accessorKey: "id",
        cell: function render({ getValue }) {
          return (
            <DeleteButton recordItemId={getValue() as number} />
          );
        },
      },
    ],
    [],
  );

  const { getHeaderGroups, getRowModel } = useTable({
    columns,
  });

  return (
    <List>
      <TableContainer>
        <Table variant="simple" whiteSpace="pre-line">
          <Thead>
            {getHeaderGroups().map((headerGroup) => (
              <Tr key={headerGroup.id}>
                {headerGroup.headers.map((header) => {
                  return (
                    <Th key={header.id}>
                      {!header.isPlaceholder &&
                        flexRender(
                          header.column.columnDef.header,
                          header.getContext(),
                        )}
                    </Th>
                  );
                })}
              </Tr>
            ))}
          </Thead>
          <Tbody>
            {getRowModel().rows.map((row) => {
              return (
                <Tr key={row.id}>
                  {row.getVisibleCells().map((cell) => {
                    return (
                      <Td key={cell.id}>
                        {flexRender(
                          cell.column.columnDef.cell,
                          cell.getContext(),
                        )}
                      </Td>
                    );
                  })}
                </Tr>
              );
            })}
          </Tbody>
        </Table>
      </TableContainer>
    </List>
  );
};

interface IPost {
  id: number;

Properties​

recordItemId​

recordItemId allows us to manage which record will be deleted. By default, it will be read from the URL.

localhost:3000
import { DeleteButton } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";

const MyDeleteComponent = () => {
  return <DeleteButton recordItemId="123" />;
};

Clicking the button will trigger the useDelete method and then the record whose resource is "post" and whose id is "123" gets deleted.

resource​

resource allows us to manage which resource's record is going to be deleted. By default, it will be read from the URL.

localhost:3000
import { DeleteButton } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";

const MyDeleteComponent = () => {
  return <DeleteButton resource="categories" recordItemId="2" />;
};

Clicking the button will trigger the useDelete method and then the record whose resource is "categories" and whose id is "2" gets deleted.

If you have multiple resources with the same name, you can pass the identifier instead of the name of the resource. It will only be used as the main matching key for the resource, data provider methods will still work with the name of the resource defined in the <Refine/> component.

For more information, refer to the identifier section of the <Refine/> component documentation →

onSuccess​

onSuccess can be used if you want to do anything based on the result returned after the delete request.

For example, let's console.log after deletion:

localhost:3000
import { DeleteButton } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";

const MyDeleteComponent = () => {
  return (
    <DeleteButton
      resourceNameOrRouteName="posts"
      recordItemId="1"
      onSuccess={(value) => {
        console.log(value);
      }}
    />
  );
};

mutationMode​

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

localhost:3000
import { DeleteButton } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";

const MyDeleteComponent = () => {
  return <DeleteButton recordItemId="1" mutationMode="undoable" />;
};

For more information, refer to the mutation mode docsumentation →

hideText​

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

localhost:3000
import { DeleteButton } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";

const MyDeleteComponent = () => {
  return <DeleteButton recordItemId="1" hideText />;
};

accessControl​

The accessControl prop can be used to skip the 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 { DeleteButton } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";

export const MyListComponent = () => {
  return (
    <DeleteButton accessControl={{ enabled: true, hideIfUnauthorized: true }} />
  );
};

resourceNameOrRouteName
deprecated
​

Use resource prop instead.

How to override confirm texts?​

You can change the text that appears when you confirm a transaction with confirmTitle prop, as well as what 'ok' and 'cancel' buttons text look like with the confirmOkText and confirmCancelText props.

localhost:3000
import { DeleteButton } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";

const MyDeleteComponent = () => {
  return (
    <DeleteButton
      recordItemId="1"
      confirmTitle="Custom Title"
      confirmOkText="Ok Text"
      confirmCancelText="Delete Text"
    />
  );
};
