Create

<Create> provides us a layout to display the page. It does not contain any logic but adds extra functionalities like action buttons and giving titles to the page.

We'll show what <Create> does using properties with examples.

http://localhost:3000/posts/create
Live previews only work with the latest documentation.
import {
Create,
Form,
Input,
Select,
useForm,
useSelect,
} from "@pankod/refine-antd";

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
const { formProps, saveButtonProps } = useForm<IPost>();

const { selectProps: categorySelectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({
resource: "categories",
});

return (
<Create saveButtonProps={saveButtonProps}>
<Form {...formProps} layout="vertical">
<Form.Item
label="Title"
name="title"
rules={[
{
required: true,
},
]}
>
<Input />
</Form.Item>
<Form.Item

Swizzle

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

Properties

title

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

import { Create } from "@pankod/refine-antd";

const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {
return (

saveButtonProps

<Create> component has a default button that submits the form. If you want to customize this button you can use the saveButtonProps property like the code below.

resource

The <Create> 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 <Create> component in a custom page, you can use the resource prop.

</Create>
);
};

const App: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Refine
routerProvider={{
