Generic <Resource>ListView Component Documentation

This document explains the <Resource>ListView component, a reusable and adaptable component for displaying and managing lists of resources in your React application.

Purpose:

  • Render a paginated data grid with sorting, filtering, and action capabilities.
  • Facilitate common resource management tasks like editing, deleting, and reloading data.
  • Provide a clean and reusable component for displaying various resource types.

Key Features:

  • Leverages react-data-grid for grid functionality.
  • Fetches data using a provided custom hook (e.g., use<Resources>).
  • Supports searching and filtering based on passed search prop.
  • Offers customizable columns and cell formatting.
  • Includes edit and delete actions through callbacks (onEdit and onDelete).
  • Handles pagination, page size changes, and data reloading.

Component Usage:

jsx
import <Resource>ListView from './<Resource>ListView';

const onEdit<Resource> = (id) => {
  // Handle resource edit logic
};

const onDelete<Resource> = (id) => {
  // Handle resource delete logic
};

<`<Resource>`ListView
  resourceType="My<Resource>Type" // Replace with your resource type
  search={searchValue}
  onEdit={onEdit<Resource>}
  onDelete={onDelete<Resource>}
/>

Component Breakdown:

  • Props:
    • resourceType: String identifying the type of resources being displayed (e.g., "User", "Product").
    • search (optional): String for filtering data.
    • onEdit: Callback function for handling edit actions.
    • onDelete: Callback function for handling delete actions.
  • State:
    • page: Current page number for pagination.
    • pageSize: Number of resources per page.
  • Data Fetching:
    • Uses a provided custom hook (replace with your specific hook) to fetch data based on page, pageSize, and search.
  • Grid Configuration:
    • Defines columns with headers, widths, and custom cell rendering (e.g., for actions).
    • Enables pagination and page size changes.
  • Error Handling:
    • Displays error messages if data fetching fails.
  • Side Effects:
    • Refetches data whenever page, pageSize, or search changes.

Benefits:

  • Improved code reusability and maintainability across different resource views.
  • Consistent presentation and interaction patterns for managing resources.
  • Flexibility to adapt to various resource types by changing props and data fetching logic.

Additional Notes:

  • Remember to replace <Resource>ListViewType, <Resource>ListItemType, and GridAction with your actual component and interface names.
  • Adapt data fetching logic, column definitions, and action handling based on your specific needs.
  • Consider using additional features of react-data-grid for more advanced list functionalities.
