`useSaveContext`

useSaveContext grabs the save callback prepared either by useEditController or useCreateController. It is used by <SaveButton> to submit the form.

useSaveContext is necessary because the <SaveButton> doesn’t know if it is used in a <Create> or an <Edit> page.

Usage

import { useSaveContext } from 'react-admin';

const { 
    save, // the create or update callback, which receives the form data and calls the dataProvider
    saving, //  boolean that becomes true when the dataProvider is called
    mutationMode, // the current mutation mode, either 'undoable', 'optimistic', or 'pessimistic'
} = useSaveContext();

You can create a custom SaveContext to override the default save callback:

import { SaveContextProvider } from 'react-admin';

const MyComponent = () => {
    const save = data => {
        console.log(data);
    }
    const saving = false;
    const mutationMode = "pessimistic";
    return (
        <SaveContextProvider value={{ save, saving, mutationMode }}>
            <MyForm />
        </SaveContextProvider>
    );
}
