ra-navigation
Complex admins with many resources need to organize their pages in a tree structure, and provide navigation widgets to help their users find their way in that structure. ra-navigation
offers specialized React components to implement a breadcrumb, menu hierarchies, and sliding menu panels, together with hooks to handle the user location.
Test it live in the Enterprise Edition Storybook and the e-commerce demo.
Installation
npm install --save @react-admin/ra-navigation
# or
yarn add @react-admin/ra-navigation
Tip: ra-navigation
is part of the React-Admin Enterprise Edition, and hosted in a private npm registry. You need to subscribe to one of the Enterprise Edition plans to access this package.
Concepts
ra-navigation
introduces the concept of application location (AppLocation
) which is distinct from the browser location. This distinction is important as it allows displaying a navigation UI independent of the URL (e.g. grouping resources under a common section, like "Catalog / Products" and "Catalog / Categories", or nesting resources, like "Customers / John Doe / Orders / 1234").
Each page in a react-admin application can define its app location using the useDefineAppLocation
hook. ra-navigation
stores this string in a React context. UI components like <Breadcrumb>
use that context to display consistent navigation information.
You don't need to define the app location for CRUD pages as react-admin does it by default:
- List:
[resource]
- Create:
[resource].create
- Edit:
[resource].edit
. The location also contains the currentrecord
- Show:
[resource].show
. The location also contains the currentrecord
However, you can customize these default app locations in your CRUD pages, and you must define the location for custom pages.
<AppLocationContext>
Setting Up The To leverage the provided components such as the <Breadcrumb>
or <MultiLevelMenu>
, the layout must be wrapped with <AppLocationContext>
.
Layout components from ra-navigation
(<ContainerLayout>
or <SolarLayout>
) already include that context, so you can skip that step if you are using one of these layouts.
If, however, you are using the default <Layout>
component from react-admin
, or a custom layout, you must wrap it with <AppLocationContext>
:
import { AppLocationContext } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Admin, Resource, Layout } from 'react-admin';
const MyLayout = props => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...props} />
</AppLocationContext>
);
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource name="posts" list={PostList} />
</Admin>
);
import { AppLocationContext } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { Admin, Resource, Layout } from "react-admin";
const MyLayout = (props) => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...props} />
</AppLocationContext>
);
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource name="posts" list={PostList} />
</Admin>
);
<Breadcrumb>
This component renders a breadcrumb path that automatically adapts to the page location. It helps users navigate large web applications.
The breadcrumb path can complement and/or replace navigation menus, back buttons, page titles, and site maps. It's a small but effective navigation control.
React-admin's <Breadcrumb>
is not a pure UI component that you use in each page to manually render a breadcrumb path (for that, you can use Material-UI's <Breadcrumbs>
). It's a smart component designed to be inserted in the application layout that renders the breadcrumb path of the current page. Breadcrumb items can be completely customized, and may include data from the current context (e.g. the name or title of the current record).
Usage
Create a custom layout component containing the <Breadcrumb>
component. For example, using the default <Layout>
component from react-admin
:
// in src/MyLayout.jsx
import { AppLocationContext, Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Layout } from 'react-admin';
export const MyLayout = ({ children, ...rest }) => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...rest}>
<Breadcrumb />
{children}
</Layout>
</AppLocationContext>
);
Tip: The layout must be wrapped with <AppLocationContext>
, as <Breadcrumb>
reads the app location from this context and not the URL. Layout components from ra-navigation
(<ContainerLayout>
or <SolarLayout>
) already include that context, so it's not necessary to include it in the custom layout.
Tip: The ra-enterprise
package exports an alternative <Layout>
, which contains a pre-configured <Breadcrumb>
that renders breadcrumb paths for all resources.
Next, set this custom layout as the <Admin layout>
component:
import { Admin } from 'react-admin';
import { DataProvider } from './dataProvider';
import { MyLayout } from './MyLayout';
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
...
</Admin>
);
Now every CRUD page for the declared resources displays a breadcrumb path. For example, for the posts
resource:
- "Posts" on the Post List page
- "Posts / #1" on the Post Edition page with id = 1
- "Posts / #1" on the Post Show page with id = 1
- "Posts / Create" on the Post Creation page
By default, <Breadcrumb>
uses the id
field to identify the current record on show and edit pages. You can customize it by setting the <Resource recordRepresentation>
prop to a string or a function:
const App = () => {
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource
name="posts"
recordRepresentation="title"
list={PostList}
edit={PostEdit}
show={PostShow}
create={PostCreate}
/>
...
</Admin>;
};
With this setup, the breadcrumb on the post pages will use the title
field of the record:
- "Posts" on the Post List page
- "Posts / Lorem ipsum" on the Post Edition page with id = 1
- "Posts / Lorem ipsum" on the Post Show page with id = 1
- "Posts / Create" on the Post Creation page
If your app has a home or dashboard page, set the <AppLocationContext hasDashboard>
prop to display the dashboard as the root of the breadcrumb:
// in src/MyLayout.jsx
import { AppLocationContext, Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Layout } from 'react-admin';
export const MyLayout = ({ children, ...rest }) => (
<AppLocationContext hasDashboard>
<Layout {...rest}>
<Breadcrumb />
{children}
</Layout>
</AppLocationContext>
);
With this setup, the breadcrumb on the post pages now renders as:
- "🏠️ / Posts" on the Post List page
- "🏠️ / Posts / Lorem ipsum" on the Post Edition page with id = 1
- "🏠️ / Posts / Lorem ipsum" on the Post Show page with id = 1
- "🏠️ / Posts / Create" on the Post Creation page
You can customize the breadcrumb path of each page, as well as add custom pages to the breadcrumb, by adding children
to the <Breadcrumb>
component. See the children
section below for more information.
Props
Prop | Required | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
children |
Optional | ReactNode |
- | The Breadcrumb Items to be rendered. |
dashboard |
Optional | ReactNode |
- | The dashboard component, used to determine if the Admin has a dashboard. |
hasDashboard |
Optional | boolean | - | Alternative to dashboard . Set to true to add a dashboard item to the breadcrumb. |
separator |
Optional | string or function | ' / ' | The character user as separator |
sx |
Optional | SxProps |
- | Style overrides, powered by MUI System |
Additional props are passed down to the root <nav>
component.
children
Use the <Breadcrumb>
children
prop to define how a given app location renders in the breadcrumb. Children of the <Breadcrumb>
component must be <Breadcrumb.Item>
components, or any of its derivatives (<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem>
, <Breadcrumb.ResourceItems>
). These components can themselves have children in order to create a breadcrumb path of any depth.
Every <Breadcrumb>
child must have a name
prop. This name
corresponds to a segment of the app location. For example, for an app location catalog.categories.list
, the <Breadcrumb>
will display the child with the name
prop set to catalog
. If no child matches the current app location, the <Breadcrumb>
won't display anything.
For instance, Here's how you can create a custom breadcrumb for two resources: posts and comments.
// in src/MyBreadcrumb.jsx
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="posts" label="Posts" to="/posts">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => `Edit #${record.id}`}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="show"
label={({ record }) => `Show #${record.id}`}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}/show`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="create" label="Create" to="/posts/create" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="comments" label="Comments" to="/comments">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => `Edit #${record.id}`}
to={({ record }) => `/comments/${record.id}`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="show"
label={({ record }) => `Show #${record.id}`}
to={({ record }) => `/comments/${record.id}/show`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="create"
label="Create"
to="/comments/create"
/>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
Replace the default <Breadcrumb>
in your layout with your custom <MyBreadcrumb>
component:
// in src/MyLayout.jsx
import { AppLocationContext, Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Layout } from 'react-admin';
import { MyBreadcrumb } from './MyBreadcrumb';
export const MyLayout = ({ children, ...rest }) => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...rest}>
<MyBreadcrumb />
{children}
</Layout>
</AppLocationContext>
);
The above breadcrumb setup will display:
- "Posts" on the Post List page
- "Posts / Show #1" on the Post Show page with id = 1
- "Posts / Edit #1" on the Post Edition page with id = 1
- "Posts / Create" on the Post Creation page
- "Comments" on the Comment list page
- "Comments / Show #1" on the Comment Show page with id = 1
- "Comments / Edit #1" on the Comment Edition page with id = 1
- "Comments / Create" on the Comment Creation page
As defining the paths for all the resources is a common use case, <Breadcrumb>
provides a component that does the same. It's called <Breadcrumb.ResourceItems>
. So the following breadcrumb is equivalent to the previous one:
// in src/MyBreadcrumb.jsx
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItems />
</Breadcrumb>
);
This means you can use the default breadcrumb for CRUD pages, and only define breadcrumb items for custom pages. For instance, to set up a breadcrumb for an app with a Settings page, you can do the following:
// in src/MyBreadcrumb.jsx
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItems />
<Breadcrumb.Item name="settings" label="Settings" to="/settings" />
</Breadcrumb>
);
See the following sections for the detailed syntax of possible <Breadcrumb>
children:
separator
The breadcrumb separator used by default is " / ". You can override it by passing a string or a function as the separator
prop.
// use a separator string
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb separator=" > ">
...
</Breadcrumb>
);
// use a separator function to set the separator pseudo-content CSS
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb separator={() => `url('data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAA....')`}>
...
</Breadcrumb>
);
sx
You can override the style of the breadcrumb and its items using the sx
prop.
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb
sx={{
'& ul': { padding: 1, paddingLeft: 0 },
'& ul:empty': { padding: 0 },
}}
>
// ...
</Breadcrumb>
);
<Breadcrumb.Item>
The <Breadcrumb.Item>
component is responsible for rendering individual breadcrumb items. It displays the item when the app's location matches the specified name
. You can nest this component to create breadcrumb paths of varying depths.
It requires the following props:
name
: Represents the item's name, which is used to determine its full path in the breadcrumb.label
: Specifies the display label for the item. Can be a string (including a translation key), a React component, or a function returning a string or a React component based on the location context.
It accepts the following optional props:
to
: Defines the react-router path for the link. Can be a string, or a function that returns a string based on the location context.
Note: If the to
prop is provided, <Breadcrumb.Item>
will render as a link. Without it, the component will render as a <span>
.
Here is an example breadcrumb rendering the CRUD path for a posts
resource:
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="posts" label="Posts">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => `Edit "${record.title}"`}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="show"
label={({ record }) => record.title}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}/show`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="list" label="My Post List" />
<Breadcrumb.Item name="create" label="Let's write a Post!" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
Here is another example, showing how to use a React component as label:
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Typography, Stack } from '@mui/material';
import NewspaperIcon from '@mui/icons-material/Newspaper';
const IconAndLabel = ({
label,
icon,
}: {
label: string;
icon: React.ReactNode;
}) => (
<Stack direction="row" alignItems="center" spacing={1}>
{icon}
<Typography variant="body2">{label}</Typography>
</Stack>
);
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="posts"
label={
<IconAndLabel
label="My Fabulous Posts"
icon={<NewspaperIcon />}
/>
}
>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => `Edit "${record.title}"`}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="show"
label={({ record }) => record.title}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}/show`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="create" label="Let's write a Post!" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
<Breadcrumb>
contains shortcut components for defining several <Breadcrumb.Item>
children in a row: <Breadcrumb.ResourceItem>
and <Breadcrumb.ResourceItems>
.
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem>
This component renders the 4 breadcrumb items for the CRUD routes of a given resource. It only takes the resource
name and relies on the label
prop defined in the <Resource options>
for the label.
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="posts" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="comments" />
</Breadcrumb>
);
is equivalent to:
// in src/MyBreadcrumb.jsx
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="posts" label="Posts" to="/posts">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => `#${record.id}`}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="show"
label={({ record }) => `#${record.id}`}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}/show`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="create" label="Create" to="/posts/create" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="comments" label="Comments" to="/comments">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => `#${record.id}`}
to={({ record }) => `/comments/${record.id}`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="show"
label={({ record }) => `#${record.id}`}
to={({ record }) => `/comments/${record.id}/show`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="create"
label="Create"
to="/comments/create"
/>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
Tip: If you need more fine-grained control over the labels, you can override the Resource Breadcrumb items.
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItems>
This component renders one <Breadcrumb.ResourceItem>
for each of the <Resource>
declared in the admin.
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItems />
</Breadcrumb>
);
Given the following app:
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource name="posts" list={PostList} />
<Resource name="comments" list={CommentList} />
<Resource name="tags" list={TagList} />
</Admin>
);
The <Breadcrumb.ResourceItems>
is equivalent to:
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="posts" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="comments" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="tags" />
</Breadcrumb>
);
This component can render <Breadcrumb.ResourceItem>
for only a subset of resources defined in the resources
prop.
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItems resources={['posts', 'comments']} />
</Breadcrumb>
);
This is equivalent to:
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="posts" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="comments" />
</Breadcrumb>
);
Check the <Breadcrumb.ResourceItem>
section for more information.
<Breadcrumb.DashboardItem>
A version of the <Breadcrumb.Item>
dedicated to the dashboard.
It is convenient for customizing the dashboard item label.
const MyBreadcrumbCustomHome = () => (
<Breadcrumb hasDashboard>
<Breadcrumb.DashboardItem label="My Home">
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="posts" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="comments" />
</Breadcrumb.DashboardItem>
</Breadcrumb>
);
const MyBreadcrumbCustomHome = () => (
<Breadcrumb hasDashboard>
<Breadcrumb.DashboardItem label="My Home">
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="posts" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="comments" />
</Breadcrumb.DashboardItem>
</Breadcrumb>
);
Just like with <Breadcrumb.Item>
, you can also use a React component as label:
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Box, Stack } from '@mui/material';
import { visuallyHidden } from '@mui/utils';
import CabinIcon from '@mui/icons-material/Cabin';
const MyBreadcrumbCustomHome = () => (
<Breadcrumb hasDashboard>
<Breadcrumb.DashboardItem
label={
<Stack direction="row" alignItems="center" spacing={1}>
<CabinIcon />
<Box sx={visuallyHidden}>Dashboard</Box>
</Stack>
}
>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="posts" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="comments" />
</Breadcrumb.DashboardItem>
</Breadcrumb>
);
import { Breadcrumb } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { Box, Stack } from "@mui/material";
import { visuallyHidden } from "@mui/utils";
import CabinIcon from "@mui/icons-material/Cabin";
const MyBreadcrumbCustomHome = () => (
<Breadcrumb hasDashboard>
<Breadcrumb.DashboardItem
label={
<Stack direction="row" alignItems="center" spacing={1}>
<CabinIcon />
<Box sx={visuallyHidden}>Dashboard</Box>
</Stack>
}
>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="posts" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="comments" />
</Breadcrumb.DashboardItem>
</Breadcrumb>
);
Tip: It's a good practice to include a visually hidden placeholder ('Dashboard' in this example) for screen readers when using an icon as label.
Using A Dashboard As The Root
If the app has a home page defined via the <Admin dashboard>
prop, you can automatically set the root of the Breadcrumb to this page by setting the hasDashboard
prop in the <AppLocationContext>
component:
// in src/MyLayout.jsx
import { AppLocationContext, Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Layout } from 'react-admin';
export const MyLayout = ({ children, ...rest }) => (
<AppLocationContext hasDashboard>
<Layout {...rest}>
<Breadcrumb />
{children}
</Layout>
</AppLocationContext>
);
By doing this, the breadcrumb will now show respectively:
- "🏠️ / Posts" on the Post List page
- "🏠️ / Posts / Show #1" on the Post Show page with id = 1
- "🏠️ / Posts / Edit #1" on the Post Edition page with id = 1
- "🏠️ / Posts / Create" on the Post Creation page
Tip: Even though it is rendered as a 'home' icon (🏠️), the dashboard breadcrumb item also contains the hidden placeholder text 'Dashboard', for screen readers. If you want to customize this text, e.g. to rename "Dashboard" to "Home", provide a custom translation for the ra.page.dashboard
message.
If you want to provide your own label for the dashboard breadcrumb item (either a string or a React component), you can use the <Breadcrumb.DashboardItem>
component.
Adding Custom Pages
A page component can define its app location using the useDefineAppLocation
hook:
// in src/UserPreferences.jsx
import { useDefineAppLocation } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const UserPreferences = () => {
useDefineAppLocation('user.preferences');
return <span>My Preferences</span>;
};
Let's say that this custom page is added to the app under the /settings
URL:
// in src/App.jsx
import { Admin, Resource, CustomRoutes, } from 'react-admin';
import { Route } from 'react-router-dom';
import { MyLayout } from './MyLayout';
import { UserPreferences } from './UserPreferences';
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
...
<CustomRoutes>
<Route exact path="/settings" component={UserPreferences} />,
</CustomRoutes>
</Admin>
);
It's the job of the <Breadcrumb>
component to define the breadcrumb path for this page location using its children:
// in src/MyBreadcrumb.jsx
import { Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItems />
<Breadcrumb.Item name="user" label="User">
<Breadcrumb.Item name="preferences" label="Preferences" to="/settings" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
Finally, don't forget to use the <MyBreadcrumb>
component in the layout:
// in src/MyLayout.jsx
import { AppLocationContext, Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Layout } from 'react-admin';
import { MyBreadcrumb } from './MyBreadcrumb';
export const MyLayout = ({ children, ...rest }) => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...rest}>
<MyBreadcrumb />
{children}
</Layout>
</AppLocationContext>
);
Overriding Items For One Resource
In some cases, it's useful to override the default resource breadcrumb path, e.g. to add a custom label instead of "Show #1", "Edit #1", etc. If the <Resource recordRepresentation>
is not enough, you can disable the concerned resources in the <Breadcrumb.ResourceItems resources>
prop, and declare the breadcrumb items for these resources manually.
import React from 'react';
import { AppLocationContext, Breadcrumb } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Admin, Resource, Layout, useCreatePath, List } from 'react-admin';
const MyBreadcrumb = ({ children, ...props }) => {
const createPath = useCreatePath();
return (
<Breadcrumb>
{/* no Breadcrumb.ResourceItem for the 'posts' resource */}
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItems resources={['comments', 'tags']} />
{/* we define it manually */}
<Breadcrumb.Item name="posts" label="Posts">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => `Edit "${record.title}"`}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="show"
label={({ record }) => record.title}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}/show`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="create" label="Create" to="/posts/create" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
};
const MyLayout = ({ children, ...rest }) => (
<AppLocationContext hasDashboard={!!rest.dashboard}>
<Layout {...rest}>
<MyBreadcrumb />
{children}
</Layout>
</AppLocationContext>
);
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource name="posts" list={PostList} />
<Resource name="comments" list={CommentList} />
<Resource name="tags" list={TagList} />
</Admin>
);
import React from "react";
import { AppLocationContext, Breadcrumb } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { Admin, Resource, Layout, useCreatePath } from "react-admin";
const MyBreadcrumb = ({ children, ...props }) => {
const createPath = useCreatePath();
return (
<Breadcrumb>
{/* no Breadcrumb.ResourceItem for the 'posts' resource */}
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItems resources={["comments", "tags"]} />
{/* we define it manually */}
<Breadcrumb.Item name="posts" label="Posts">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => `Edit "${record.title}"`}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="show"
label={({ record }) => record.title}
to={({ record }) => `/posts/${record.id}/show`}
/>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="create" label="Create" to="/posts/create" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
};
const MyLayout = ({ children, ...rest }) => (
<AppLocationContext hasDashboard={!!rest.dashboard}>
<Layout {...rest}>
<MyBreadcrumb />
{children}
</Layout>
</AppLocationContext>
);
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource name="posts" list={PostList} />
<Resource name="comments" list={CommentList} />
<Resource name="tags" list={TagList} />
</Admin>
);
Nested Resources
When using nested resources, you should create breadcrumb items for the sub-resources.
For instance, the screencast at the top of this page shows a songs
resource nested in an artists
resource, using the following routes:
import { Admin, Resource } from 'react-admin';
import { Route } from 'react-router-dom';
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider}>
<Resource name="artists" list={ArtistList} edit={ArtistDetail}>
<Route path=":id/songs" element={<SongList />} />
<Route path=":id/songs/:songId" element={<SongDetail />} />
</Resource>
</Admin>
);
This setup creates four routes:
/artists
renders the<ArtistList>
element/artists/:id
renders the<ArtistDetail>
element/artists/:id/songs
renders the<SongList>
element/artists/:id/songs/:songId
renders the<SongDetail>
element
One app location is defined for each route:
/artists
:artists
(defined automatically)/artists/:id
:artists.edit
(defined automatically)/artists/:id/songs
:artists.edit.songs
(defined manually)/artists/:id/songs/:songId
:artists.edit.songs.edit
(defined manually)
Let's see how the components for the songs list and detail pages define their app location:
// in src/songs/SongList.js
import { useGetOne, List, SearchInput, Datagrid, TextField, DateField } from 'react-admin';
import { useDefineAppLocation } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { useParams } from 'react-router-dom';
export const SongList = () => {
const { id } = useParams();
const { data: record } = useGetOne('artists', { id });
useDefineAppLocation('artists.edit.songs', { record });
return (
<List
resource="songs"
filter={{ artist_id: id }}
filters={[<SearchInput key="q" source="q" alwaysOn />]}
>
<Datagrid>
<TextField source="title" />
<DateField source="released" />
<TextField source="writer" />
<TextField source="producer" />
<TextField source="recordCompany" label="Label" />
<EditSongButton />
</Datagrid>
</List>
);
};
const EditSongButton = () => {
const song = useRecordContext();
return (
<Button
component={Link}
to={`/artists/${song?.artist_id}/songs/${song?.id}`}
startIcon={<EditIcon />}
>
Edit
</Button>
);
};
// in src/songs/SongDetail.js
import { useGetOne, Edit, SimpleForm, TextInput, DateInput } from 'react-admin';
import { useDefineAppLocation } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { useParams } from 'react-router-dom';
export const SongDetail = () => {
const { id, songId } = useParams();
const { data: record } = useGetOne('artists', { id });
const { data: song } = useGetOne('songs', { id: songId });
useDefineAppLocation('artists.edit.songs.edit', { record, song });
return (
<Edit resource="songs" id={songId} redirect={`/artists/${id}/songs`}>
<SimpleForm>
<TextInput source="title" />
<DateInput source="released" />
<TextInput source="writer" />
<TextInput source="producer" />
<TextInput source="recordCompany" label="Label" />
</SimpleForm>
</Edit>
);
};
Tip: The <Edit>
component will call dataProvider.getOne("songs", { id: songId })
to fetch the song record. Since the <SongDetail>
component makes the same request, React-admin will deduplicate the calls and only make one request to the dataProvider.
Tip: You don't need to call useDefineAppLocation
for the pages of the parent resource (artists) as this resource uses the default URLs (/artists
, /artists/:id
). The app location will be deduced automatically from these URLs (i.e. artists
and artists.edit
).
Once the app locations are properly set up, the Breadcrumb code comes naturally as:
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="artists" label="Artists" to="/artists">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => record?.name}
to={({ record }) => `/artists/${record?.id}`}
>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="songs"
label="Songs"
to={({ record }) => `/artists/${record?.id}/songs`}
>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ song }) => song?.title}
to={({ song }) => `/artists/${song?.artist_id}/songs/${song?.id}`}
/>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="create"
label="Create"
to="/artists/create"
/>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
Grouping Resources
You may want to group CRUD pages for several resources under a common parent item. For instance, let's say that the pages for the songs
and artists
resources have to be grouped under a "Music" item. The breadcrumb path for the list pages of these resources should look like the following:
- "Music / Songs" on the Song List page
- "Music / Artists" on the Artist List page
To do so, override the app location of the CRUD pages using the useDefineAppLocation
hook. Here is an example for the songs
resource:
// in src/songs/SongList.jsx
import { List, Datagrid, TextField } from 'react-admin';
import { useDefineAppLocation } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const SongList = () => {
useDefineAppLocation('music.songs');
return (
<List>
<Datagrid rowClick="edit">
<TextField source="title" />
</Datagrid>
</List>
);
};
// in src/songs/SongEdit.jsx
import { Edit, SimpleForm, TextInput, useRecordContext } from 'react-admin';
import { useDefineAppLocation } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const SongEditAppLocation = () => {
const record = useRecordContext();
useDefineAppLocation('music.songs.edit', { record });
return null;
};
export const SongEdit = () => (
<Edit>
<SongEditAppLocation />
<SimpleForm>
<TextInput source="title" />
</SimpleForm>
</Edit>
);
// in src/songs/SongShow.jsx
import { Show, SimpleShowLayout, TextField, useRecordContext } from 'react-admin';
import { useDefineAppLocation } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const SongShowAppLocation = () => {
const record = useRecordContext();
useDefineAppLocation('music.songs.show', { record });
return null;
};
export const SongShow = () => (
<Show>
<SongShowAppLocation />
<SimpleShowLayout>
<TextField source="title" />
</SimpleShowLayout>
</Show>
);
// in src/songs/SongCreate.jsx
import { Create, SimpleForm, TextInput } from 'react-admin';
import { useDefineAppLocation } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const SongCreate = () => {
useDefineAppLocation('music.songs.create');
return (
<Create>
<SimpleForm>
<TextInput source="title" />
</SimpleForm>
</Create>
);
};
Then, in the breadcrumb, nest <Breadcrumb.ResourceItem>
elements for the songs
and artists
resources under a parent <Breadcrumb.Item name="music">
:
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="music" label="Music">
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="songs" />
<Breadcrumb.ResourceItem resource="artists" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
As you see, you can compose Breadcrumb item elements at will.
<MultiLevelMenu>
When a React-admin application grows significantly, the default menu might not be the best solution. The <MultiLevelMenu>
can help unclutter the navigation: it renders a menu with an infinite number of levels and sub-menus. Menu Items that are not at the top level are rendered inside a collapsible panel.
The <MultiLevelMenu>
accepts <MultiLevelMenu.Item>
components as its children. They are very similar to the default <MenuItemLink>
from react-admin, except that they accept other <MultiLevelMenu.Item>
as their children. To use it, the layout of the app must be inside a <AppLocationContext>
.
The <MultiLevelMenu.Item>
component accepts a name
, a label
, and an optional icon
prop.
import { Admin, Layout, Resource } from 'react-admin';
import { AppLocationContext, MultiLevelMenu } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Dashboard } from './Dashboard';
import { dataProvider } from './dataProvider';
import { SongList } from './songs';
import { ArtistList } from './artists';
const MyMenu = () => (
<MultiLevelMenu>
<MultiLevelMenu.Item name="dashboard" to="/" exact label="Dashboard" />
<MultiLevelMenu.Item name="songs" to="/songs" label="Songs" />
{/* The empty filter is required to avoid falling back to the previously set filter */}
<MultiLevelMenu.Item
name="artists"
to={'/artists?filter={}'}
label="Artists"
>
<MultiLevelMenu.Item
name="artists.rock"
to={'/artists?filter={"type":"Rock"}'}
label="Rock"
>
<MultiLevelMenu.Item
name="artists.rock.pop"
to={'/artists?filter={"type":"Pop Rock"}'}
label="Pop Rock"
/>
<MultiLevelMenu.Item

label="Folk Rock"
/>
</MultiLevelMenu.Item>
<MultiLevelMenu.Item

label="Jazz"
>
<MultiLevelMenu.Item
name="artists.jazz.rb"
to={'/artists?filter={"type":"RB"}'}

</MultiLevelMenu.Item>
</MultiLevelMenu.Item>
</MultiLevelMenu>
);
const MyLayout = props => (

);
export const Basic = () => (

<MultiLevelMenu.Item name="artists.jazz.rb" to={'/artists?filter={"type":"RB"}'} label="R&B" />
</MultiLevelMenu.Item>
</MultiLevelMenu.Item>
</MultiLevelMenu>
);
const MyLayout = (props) => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...props} menu={MyMenu} />
</AppLocationContext>
);
export const Basic = () => (
<Admin dashboard={Dashboard} dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={SongList} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ArtistList} />
</Admin>
);
Props
The <MultiLevelMenu>
accepts the following props:
-
initialOpen
: Whether the menu items with sub menus should be open initially. Has no effect if using thecategories
variant. Defaults tofalse
. -
openItemList
: Optional. List of names of menu items that should be opened by default. If the menu item to be opened is nested, you have to fill in the name of all the parent items. Ex:['artists', 'artists.rock', 'artists.rock.pop']
<MultiLevelMenu.Item>
In addition to the props of react-router <NavLink>
and those of material-ui <ListItem>
, <MultiLevelMenu.Item>
accepts the following props:
icon
: Optional. An icon element to display in front of the itemname
: Required: The name of the item. Used to manage its open/closed state.label
: Optional. The label to display for this item. Accepts translation keys.
Tip: You can omit the to
property for <MultiLevelMenu.Item>
elements that have a child menu item.
<IconMenu>
Sometimes, even menus with sub-menus are not enough to organize the navigation. ra-navigation
offers an alternative UI for that case: a vertical bar with small items, where the menu label renders underneath the icon. Clicking on any of those items opens a panel containing as many navigation links as you like, laid out as you wish.
Usage
To create a menu with that UI, use the <IconMenu>
component. As children, use <IconMenu.Item>
elements to define the icon, label, and target of the element. To define the content of the panel, add children to the <IconMenu.Item>
element.

In order to adjust the size of the React-Admin <Sidebar>
component according to the categories, you should either apply the theme
provided by the @react-admin/ra-navigation
package (as above), or merge it in your own custom theme.
import merge from 'lodash/merge';
import { defaultTheme } from 'react-admin';
import { ThemeOptions } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const theme: ThemeOptions = merge({}, defaultTheme, {
sidebar: {
width: 96,
closedWidth: 48,
},
overrides: {
RaSidebar: {
fixed: {
zIndex: 1200,
},
},
},
});
import merge from "lodash/merge";
import { defaultTheme } from "react-admin";
export const theme = merge({}, defaultTheme, {
sidebar: {
width: 96,
closedWidth: 48,
},
overrides: {
RaSidebar: {
fixed: {
zIndex: 1200,
},
},
},
});
Tip: With <IconMenu />
, labels may disappear when the sidebar is in reduced mode. This is because of the internal workings of react-admin. That's why we recommend implementing your own <AppBar />
, and hiding the Hamburger Button. <IconMenu />
is thin enough not to interfere with the navigation anyway.
<IconMenu.Item>
In addition to the props of react-router <NavLink>
and those of material-ui <ListItem>
, <IconMenu.Item>
accepts the following props:
icon
: Optional. An icon element to display in front of the itemname
: Required: The name of the item. Used to manage its open/closed state.label
: Optional. The label to display for this item. Accepts translation keys.
<IconMenuResources>
A <IconMenu>
configured to render one menu item per resource, plus an item for the dashboard if it is present.
This component doesn't need any configuration as it reads the resources from the <Admin>
context.
import { Layout } from 'react-admin';
import {
IconMenuResources,
AppLocationContext,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const MyLayout = props => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...props} menu={IconMenuResources} />
</AppLocationContext>
);
<MenuItemNode>
This menu item component is the same as <MultiLevelMenu.Item>
. When used in standalone, it must be a child of a <MenuItemList>
component. It can have other <MenuItemNode>
children.
import { MenuItemList, MenuItemNode } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { CardContent, Typography } from '@mui/material';
const MenuPopover = () => (
<CardContent>
<Typography variant="h3" gutterBottom>
Artist Categories
</Typography>
<MenuItemList>
<MenuItemNode
name="artists.rock"
to={'/artists?filter={"type":"rock"}'}
label="Rock"
/>
<MenuItemNode
name="artists.jazz"
to={'/artists?filter={"type":"jazz"}'}
label="Jazz"
/>
<MenuItemNode
name="artists.classical"
to={'/artists?filter={"type":"classical"}'}
label="Rock"
/>
</MenuItemList>
</CardContent>
);
<MenuItemList>
A wrapper to display a list of <MenuItemNode>
with proper styles (see above).
Accepts the same props as the material-ui <List>
component. See https://material-ui.com/api/list/.
<ContainerLayout>
An alternative to react-admin's <Layout>
for applications with a limited number of resources. This layout replaces the sidebar menu by an AppBar menu, and displays the content in a centered container.
Usage
Set <ContainerLayout>
as the <Admin layout>
value:
import { Admin, Resource } from 'react-admin';
import { ContainerLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={ContainerLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={SongList} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ArtistList} />
</Admin>
);
<ContainerLayout>
accepts the following props:
menu
: The menu component to use. Defaults to<HorizontalMenu>
.appBar
: The component to use to render the top AppBar. Defaults to<Header>
toolbar
: The buttons to render on the top right of the toolbar.maxWidth
: The maximum width of the content<Container>
. Defaults tomd
.fixed
: Whether the content<Container>
should be fixed. Defaults to false.
appBar
If you want to use a different color for the AppBar, or to make it sticky, pass a custom appBar
element based on <Header>
, which is a simple wrapper around MUI's <AppBar>
component.
import { ContainerLayout, Header } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const myAppBar = <Header color="primary" position="sticky" />;
const MyLayout = props => <ContainerLayout {...props} appBar={myAppBar} />;
fixed
If you prefer to design for a fixed set of sizes instead of trying to accommodate a fully fluid viewport, you can set the fixed
prop. The max-width matches the min-width of the current breakpoint.
import { ContainerLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const MyLayout = props => <ContainerLayout {...props} fixed />;
maxWidth
This prop allows to set the maximum width of the content <Container>
. It accepts a string, one of xs
, sm
, md
, lg
, xl
, or false
to remove side margins and occupy the full width of the screen.
import { ContainerLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const MyLayout = props => <ContainerLayout {...props} maxWidth="md" />;
menu
By default, <ContainerLayout>
renders one menu item per resource in the admin. To reorder the menu, omit resources, or add custom pages, pass a custom menu element to the menu
prop. This element should be a <HorizontalMenu>
component with <HorizontalMenu.Item>
children. Each child should have a value
corresponding to the application location of the target, and can have a to
prop corresponding to the target location if different from the app location.
import {
Admin,
Resource,
CustomRoutes,
ListGuesser,
EditGuesser,
} from 'react-admin';
import { Route } from 'react-router-dom';
import {
ContainerLayout,
HorizontalMenu,
useDefineAppLocation,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const Menu = () => (
<HorizontalMenu>
<HorizontalMenu.Item label="Dashboard" to="/" value="" />
<HorizontalMenu.Item label="Songs" to="/songs" value="songs" />
<HorizontalMenu.Item label="Artists" to="/artists" value="artists" />
<HorizontalMenu.Item label="Custom" to="/custom" value="custom" />
</HorizontalMenu>
);
const MyLayout = props => <ContainerLayout {...props} menu={<Menu />} />;
const CustomPage = () => {
useDefineAppLocation('custom');
return <h1>Custom page</h1>;
};
const Dashboard = () => <h1>Dashboard</h1>;
const CustomPage = () => <h1>Custom page</h1>;
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout} dashboard={Dashboard}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} edit={EditGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} edit={EditGuesser} />
<CustomRoutes>
<Route path="custom" element={<CustomPage />} />
</CustomRoutes>
</Admin>
);
sx
The sx
prop allows to customize the style of the layout, and the underlying component. It accepts a MUI sx
prop.
import { ContainerLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const MyLayout = props => (
<ContainerLayout
{...props}
sx={{
'& .MuiToolbar-root': { padding: 0 },
}}
/>
);
toolbar
The toolbar
prop allows to add buttons to the top right of the toolbar. It accepts an element.
import { LocalesMenuButton, LoadingIndicator } from 'react-admin';
import { ContainerLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const toolbar = (
<>
<LocalesMenuButton />
<LoadingIndicator />
</>
);
const MyLayout = props => <ContainerLayout {...props} toolbar={toolbar} />;
userMenu
By default, the <ContainerLayout>
shows a user menu with a single item (logout) when the application has an authProvider
. You can customize the user menu by passing a custom element to the userMenu
prop.
import { Logout, UserMenu, useUserMenu } from 'react-admin';
import { MenuList, MenuItem, ListItemIcon, ListItemText } from '@mui/material';
import SettingsIcon from '@mui/icons-material/Settings';
import { ContainerLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const ConfigurationMenu = React.forwardRef((props, ref) => {
const { onClose } = useUserMenu();
return (
<MenuItem
ref={ref}
{...props}
to="/configuration"
onClick={onClose}
sx={{ color: 'text.secondary' }}
>
<ListItemIcon>
<SettingsIcon />
</ListItemIcon>
<ListItemText>Configuration</ListItemText>
</MenuItem>
);
});
const CustomUserMenu = () => (
<UserMenu>
<MenuList>
<ConfigurationMenu />
<Logout />
</MenuList>
</UserMenu>
);
export const MyLayout = props => (
<ContainerLayout {...props} userMenu={<CustomUserMenu />} />
);
<HorizontalMenu>
A horizontal menu component, alternative to react-admin's <Menu>
, to be used in the AppBar of the <ContainerLayout>
.
Usage
Create a menu component based on <HorizontalMenu>
and <HorizontalMenu.Item>
children. Each child should have a value
corresponding to the application location of the target, and can have a to
prop corresponding to the target location if different from the app location.
import { HorizontalMenu } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const Menu = () => (
<HorizontalMenu>
<HorizontalMenu.Item label="Dashboard" to="/" value="" />
<HorizontalMenu.Item label="Songs" to="/songs" value="songs" />
<HorizontalMenu.Item label="Artists" to="/artists" value="artists" />
</HorizontalMenu>
);
Then pass it to the <ContainerLayout>
:
import { Admin, Resource } from 'react-admin';
import { ContainerLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Menu } from './Menu';
const MyLayout = props => <ContainerLayout {...props} menu={<Menu />} />;
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
...
</Admin>
);
<SolarLayout>
An alternative application layout without top bar, and using a narrow menu to maximize the usable screen real estate. The menu items can reveal a secondary panel to show sub menus, preference forms, a search engine, etc. Ideal for applications with a large number of resources.
On mobile, it shows the AppBar to allow opening the navigation menu:
It includes and leverages the AppLocationContext
Usage
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import { SolarLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={SolarLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from "react-admin";
import { SolarLayout } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={SolarLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
By default, <SolarLayout>
creates a menu based on the <Resource>
components passed to <Admin>
. You can customize the menu by passing a custom menu component to the menu
prop.
Props
Prop | Required | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
appBar |
Optional | Component | SolarAppBar | Allows to customize the AppBar |
className |
Optional | string | A class name to apply to the AppBar container. | |
error |
Optional | Component | A React component rendered in the content area in case of error | |
logo |
Optional | Component | A React component used as the dashboard icon | |
menu |
Optional | Component | SolarMenu | A React component used as the sidebar menu. Pass a custom SolarMenu to leverage this layout design |
sx |
Optional | SxProps |
Style overrides, powered by MUI System |
appBar
You can customize the AppBar that appears on Mobile by setting the appBar
prop. For instance, here's how you could customize its colors and add some extra content to its far right:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import {
SolarAppBar,
SolarLayoutProps,
SolarLayout,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const CustomAppBar = () => (
<SolarAppBar
sx={{ color: 'text.secondary', bgcolor: 'background.default' }}
toolbar={
<Box
display="flex"
justifyContent="space-between"
alignItems="center"
>
<Box mr={1}>Custom toolbar</Box>
<Box mr={1}>with</Box>
<Box mr={1}>multiple</Box>
<Box mr={1}>elements</Box>
</Box>
}
/>
);
const CustomLayout = (props: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} appBar={CustomAppBar} />
);
export const App = () => (
<Admin layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from "react-admin";
import { SolarAppBar, SolarLayout } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
const CustomAppBar = () => (
<SolarAppBar
sx={{ color: "text.secondary", bgcolor: "background.default" }}
toolbar={
<Box display="flex" justifyContent="space-between" alignItems="center">
<Box mr={1}>Custom toolbar</Box>
<Box mr={1}>with</Box>
<Box mr={1}>multiple</Box>
<Box mr={1}>elements</Box>
</Box>
}
/>
);
const CustomLayout = (props) => <SolarLayout {...props} appBar={CustomAppBar} />;
export const App = () => (
<Admin layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
className
className
is passed to the root <div>
component. It lets you style the layout with CSS - but the sx
prop is preferred.
error
Whenever a client-side error happens in react-admin, the user sees an error page. React-admin uses React's Error Boundaries to render this page when any component in the page throws an unrecoverable error.
If you want to customize this page, or log the error to a third-party service, create your own <Error>
component, and pass it to a custom Layout, as follows:
// in src/MyLayout.tsx
import { Layout } from 'react-admin';
import { MyError } from './MyError';
export const MyLayout = props => <Layout {...props} error={MyError} />;
// in src/MyLayout.tsx
import { Layout } from "react-admin";
import { MyError } from "./MyError";
export const MyLayout = (props) => <Layout {...props} error={MyError} />;
The following snippet is a simplified version of the react-admin Error
component, that you can use as a base for your own:
// in src/MyError.tsx
import * as React from 'react';
import Button from '@mui/material/Button';
import ErrorIcon from '@mui/icons-material/Report';

Tip: React's Error Boundaries are used internally to display the Error Page whenever an error occurs. Error Boundaries only catch errors during rendering, in lifecycle methods, and in constructors of the components tree. This implies in particular that errors during event callbacks (such as 'onClick') are not concerned. Also note that the Error Boundary component is only set around the main container of React Admin. In particular, you won't see it for errors thrown by the sidebar Menu, nor the AppBar. This ensures the user is always able to navigate away from the Error Page.
logo
You can customize the icon of the dashboard menu item of the default menu by setting the logo
prop:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import { SolarLayoutProps, SolarLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Dashboard } from './Dashboard';
import { Logo } from './Logo';
const CustomLayout = (props: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} logo={<Logo />} />
);
export const WithDashboardAndCustomLogo = () => (
<Admin dashboard={Dashboard} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={SongList} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ArtistList} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource } from "react-admin";
import { SolarLayout } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { Dashboard } from "./Dashboard";
import { Logo } from "./Logo";
const CustomLayout = (props) => <SolarLayout {...props} logo={<Logo />} />;
export const WithDashboardAndCustomLogo = () => (
<Admin dashboard={Dashboard} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={SongList} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ArtistList} />
</Admin>
);
menu
If you need a customized menu, pass it to the menu
prop. It's recommended to pass a customized <SolarMenu>
to leverage this layout. This is useful to organize many resources into categories or to provide shortcuts to filtered lists:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import {
SolarLayoutProps,
SolarLayout,
SolarMenu,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
export const App = () => (
<Admin
dashboard={Dashboard}
dataProvider={dataProvider}
layout={CustomLayout}
>
<Resource name="songs" icon={MusicNote} list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" icon={People} list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
const CustomLayout = ({ children, ...props }: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu}>
{children}
</SolarLayout>
);
const CustomMenu = () => (
<SolarMenu>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Sales"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="orders" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="invoices" />
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Catalog"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="products" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="categories" />
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item

subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.Item

JSON.stringify({ filter: {} })
)}`}

<SolarMenu.Item
name="customers.new"
label="New customers"
to={`/customers?filter=${encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({
filter: {
last_seen_gte:
endOfYesterday().toISOString(),
},
})
)}`}
/>
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item

JSON.stringify({ filter: { rating_lte: 2 } })
)}`}

</SolarMenu.List>
}

<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="stores" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="events" />
</SolarMenu>
);
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from "react-admin";
import { SolarLayout, SolarMenu } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
export const App = () => (
<Admin dashboard={Dashboard} dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" icon={MusicNote} list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" icon={People} list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
const CustomLayout = ({ children, ...props }) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu}>
{children}
</SolarLayout>
);
const CustomMenu = () => (
<SolarMenu>
<SolarMenu.Item

<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="orders" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="invoices" />
</SolarMenu.List>

/>
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="stores" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="events" />
</SolarMenu>
);
sx
The sx
prop allows you to customize the layout styles using a MUI SX object:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import { SolarLayoutProps, SolarLayout } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const CustomLayout = (props: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} sx={{ bgcolor: 'white' }} />
);
export const App = () => (
<Admin layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from "react-admin";
import { SolarLayout } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
const CustomLayout = (props) => <SolarLayout {...props} sx={{ bgcolor: "white" }} />;
export const App = () => (
<Admin layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
The <SolarLayout>
component accepts the usual className
prop. You can also override the styles of the inner components thanks to the sx
property. This property accepts the following subclasses:
Rule name | Description |
---|---|
RaSolarLayout |
Applied to the root component |
& .RaSolarLayout-appFrame |
Applied to the application frame containing the appBar, the sidebar, and the main content |
& .RaSolarLayout-contentWithSidebar |
Applied to the main part containing the sidebar and the content |
& .RaSolarLayout-content |
Applied to the content area |
<SolarMenu>
The default menu for the <SolarLayout>
. It displays a thin sidebar with menu items and a second sliding sidebar for its items that have children. On small devices, it is hidden and can be displayed by clicking on the <SolarAppBar>
toggle button.
By default, just like the classic react-admin menu, it contains menu items for each resource and the dashboard if present, without any secondary sliding menu.
Props
Prop | Required | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
bottomToolbar |
Optional | ReactNode | The content to render inside the bottom section of the menu. | |
children |
Optional | ReactNode | The content to render inside the top section of the menu. | |
className |
Optional | string | A class name to apply to the AppBar container. | |
dense |
Optional | boolean | false | Whether the menu should be dense. |
logo |
Optional | Component | A React component used as the dashboard icon | |
userMenu |
Optional | Component | Allows to customize the user menu | |
sx |
Optional | SxProps |
Style overrides, powered by MUI System |
It also accept the props of its root HTMLDivElement
.
In addition, the SolarMenu
object provides shortcuts to its items components:
SolarMenu.Item
, the base itemSolarMenu.ResourceItem
, an item generated from a resource definitionSolarMenu.DashboardItem
, an item for the dashboardSolarMenu.UserItem
, an item for the user menuSolarMenu.LoadingIndicatorItem
an item for the loading indicator and refresh buttonSolarMenu.List
a list of menu itemsSolarMenu.LocalesItem
an item that displays the list of supported localesSolarMenu.ToggleThemeItem
an item that displays the theme switcherSolarMenu.UserProfileItem
an item that displays the user full name and/or the logout button
children
The children
prop is the primary way to leverage the <SolarMenu>
component. It allows you to pass the menu items that are displayed in the top section of the sidebar while keeping the bottom section defaults.
For instance, here's how to group resources into categories or provide shortcuts to pre-filtered lists:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import {
SolarLayoutProps,
SolarLayout,
SolarMenu,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { dataProvider } from './dataProvider';
const CustomMenu = () => (
<SolarMenu>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Sales"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="orders" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="invoices" />
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Catalog"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="products" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="categories" />
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Customers"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="customers.all"
label="All customers"
to={`/customers?filter=${encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({ filter: {} })
)}`}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="customers.new"
label="New customers"
to={`/customers?filter=${encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({
filter: {
last_seen_gte:
endOfYesterday().toISOString(),
},
})
)}`}
/>
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Reviews"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reviews.all"
label="New reviews"
to={`/reviews?filter=${encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({ filter: {} })
)}`}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reviews.pending"
label="Pending reviews"
to={`/reviews?filter=${encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({ filter: { status: 'pending' } })
)}`}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reviews.bad"
label="Bad reviews"
to={`/reviews?filter=${encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({ filter: { rating_lte: 2 } })
)}`}
/>
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="stores" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="events" />
</SolarMenu>
);
import { SolarMenu } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
const CustomMenu = () => (
<SolarMenu>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Sales"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="orders" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="invoices" />
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Catalog"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="products" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="categories" />
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Customers"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="customers.all"
label="All customers"
to={`/customers?filter=${encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({ filter: {} }))}`}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="customers.new"
label="New customers"
to={`/customers?filter=${encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({
filter: {
last_seen_gte: endOfYesterday().toISOString(),
},
})
)}`}
/>
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Reviews"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reviews.all"
label="New reviews"
to={`/reviews?filter=${encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({ filter: {} }))}`}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reviews.pending"
label="Pending reviews"
to={`/reviews?filter=${encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({ filter: { status: "pending" } }))}`}
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reviews.bad"
label="Bad reviews"
to={`/reviews?filter=${encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({ filter: { rating_lte: 2 } }))}`}
/>
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="stores" />
<SolarMenu.ResourceItem name="events" />
</SolarMenu>
);
className
className
is passed to the root <div>
component. It lets you style the layout with CSS - but the sx
prop is preferred.
dense
Set the dense
prop to true
to reduce the vertical space between items:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import {
SolarLayoutProps,
SolarLayout,
SolarMenu,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { ListItemButton } from '@mui/material';
import { dataProvider } from './dataProvider';
const CustomMenu = () => <SolarMenu dense />;
const CustomLayout = (props: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu} />
);
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from "react-admin";
import { SolarLayout, SolarMenu } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { dataProvider } from "./dataProvider";
const CustomMenu = () => <SolarMenu dense />;
const CustomLayout = (props) => <SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu} />;
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
userMenu
The userMenu
prop allows you to customize the very last menu item of the sidebar.
By default, if you have an authProvider
, this menu item will have the user avatar as its icon when available from the authProvider.getIdentity
function. If not available, it will display a user icon.
If you don't have an authProvider
but have configured a dark theme or your i18nProvider
supports multiple locales, this menu item will have a settings icon.
Besides, this default menu has a secondary sliding panel.
If you have an authProvider
, this secondary sliding panel will show the user full name when available from the authProvider.getIdentity
function and a logout button. If the user full name is not available, it will display a the logout button only.
If you have configured a dark theme, the secondary sliding panel will show a button to toggle it.
If your i18nProvider
supports multiple locales, it will display a list of the supported locales so that users can switch to them.
You can customize it by passing your own content to the userMenu
prop.
For instance, here's how to only show a logout button:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import {
SolarLayoutProps,
SolarLayout,
SolarMenu,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { ListItemButton } from '@mui/material';
import { dataProvider } from './dataProvider';
const CustomUserMenu = () => {
const logout = useLogout();
return (
<ListItemButton onClick={() => logout()} aria-label="Logout">
<ExitIcon />
</ListItemButton>
);
};
const CustomMenu = () => <SolarMenu userMenu={<CustomUserMenu />} />;
const CustomLayout = ({ children, ...props }: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu}>
{children}
</SolarLayout>
);
export const App = () => (
<Admin
dashboard={Dashboard}
dataProvider={dataProvider}
layout={CustomLayout}
>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from "react-admin";
import { SolarLayout, SolarMenu } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { ListItemButton } from "@mui/material";
import { dataProvider } from "./dataProvider";
const CustomUserMenu = () => {
const logout = useLogout();
return (
<ListItemButton onClick={() => logout()} aria-label="Logout">
<ExitIcon />
</ListItemButton>
);
};
const CustomMenu = () => <SolarMenu userMenu={<CustomUserMenu />} />;
const CustomLayout = ({ children, ...props }) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu}>
{children}
</SolarLayout>
);
export const App = () => (
<Admin dashboard={Dashboard} dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
bottomToolbar
The bottom section of the <SolarMenu>
contains the refresh button and the user menu by default.
You can customize it by passing your own content to the bottomToolbar
prop.
For instance, here's how to show a settings menu item in addition to the existing bottom menu items:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import {
SolarLayoutProps,
SolarLayout,
SolarMenu,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { ListItemButton } from '@mui/material';
import { dataProvider } from './dataProvider';
const CustomBottomToolbar = () => (
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="settings"
label="Settings"
to="/settings"
icon={<Settings />}
/>
<SolarMenu.LoadingIndicatorItem />
<SolarMenu.UserItem />
</SolarMenu.List>
);
const CustomMenu = () => <SolarMenu bottomToolbar={<CustomBottomToolbar />} />;
const CustomLayout = (props: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu} />
);
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from "react-admin";
import { SolarLayout, SolarMenu } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { dataProvider } from "./dataProvider";
const CustomBottomToolbar = () => (
<SolarMenu.List>
<SolarMenu.Item name="settings" label="Settings" to="/settings" icon={<Settings />} />
<SolarMenu.LoadingIndicatorItem />
<SolarMenu.UserItem />
</SolarMenu.List>
);
const CustomMenu = () => <SolarMenu bottomToolbar={<CustomBottomToolbar />} />;
const CustomLayout = (props) => <SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu} />;
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
sx
The sx
prop allows you to customize the menu styles using a MUI SX object.
For instance, here is how to change the background color of the menu:
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from 'react-admin';
import {
SolarLayoutProps,
SolarLayout,
SolarMenu,
SolarMenuProps,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const CustomMenu = (props: SolarMenuProps) => (
<SolarMenu
sx={{
'& .RaSolarPrimarySidebar-root .MuiDrawer-paper': {
backgroundColor: '#C724B1',
'& .MuiButtonBase-root': {
color: '#ffffff',
},
'& .MuiButtonBase-root.Mui-selected': {
backgroundColor: '#3A3A59',
color: '#ffffff',
},
},
}}
{...props}
/>
);
const CustomLayout = (props: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu} />
);
export const App = () => (
<Admin layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource, ListGuesser } from "react-admin";
import { SolarLayout, SolarMenu } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
const CustomMenu = (props) => (
<SolarMenu
sx={{
"& .RaSolarPrimarySidebar-root .MuiDrawer-paper": {
backgroundColor: "#C724B1",
"& .MuiButtonBase-root": {
color: "#ffffff",
},
"& .MuiButtonBase-root.Mui-selected": {
backgroundColor: "#3A3A59",
color: "#ffffff",
},
},
}}
{...props}
/>
);
const CustomLayout = (props) => <SolarLayout {...props} menu={CustomMenu} />;
export const App = () => (
<Admin layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={ListGuesser} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ListGuesser} />
</Admin>
);
The <SolarMenu>
component accepts the usual className
prop. You can also override the styles of the inner components thanks to the sx
property. This property accepts the following subclasses:
Rule name | Description |
---|---|
RaSolarMenu |
Applied to the root component |
& .RaSolarMenu-topToolbar |
Applied to the upper section of the menu |
& .RaSolarMenu-bottomToolbar |
Applied to the lower section of the menu |
& .RaSolarPrimarySidebar-root |
Applied to the primary sidebar |
& .RaSolarSecondarySidebar-root |
Applied to the secondary sidebar |
<SolarMenu.Item>
An item for the <SolarMenu>
component. <SolarMenu.Item>
components require an icon
and a label
, as well as a name
to determine if they match the current app location.
There are two types of item components:
- Those that render a link to a resource or a custom page, and contain a
to
prop:
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Customers"
icon={<PeopleOutlined />}
name="customers"
to="/customers"
/>
- Those that render a sub menu when clicked, and contain a
subMenu
prop:
<SolarMenu.Item
label="Reports"
icon={<ReportsIcon />}
name="reports"
subMenu={
<SolarMenu.List dense disablePadding sx={{ gap: 0 }}>
<Typography variant="h6" sx={{ px: 1, my: 1 }}>
Reports
</Typography>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reports.password_reports"
to="/reports/password_reports"
label="Password Reports"
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reports.user_reports"
to="/reports/user_reports"
label="User Reports"
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reports.general_reports"
to="/reports/general_reports"
label="General Reports"
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reports.compliance_reports"
to="/reports/compliance_reports"
label="Compliance Reports"
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reports.custom_reports"
to="/reports/custom_reports"
label="Custom Reports"
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reports.certificate_reports"
to="/reports/certificate_reports"
label="Certificate Reports"
/>
<SolarMenu.Item
name="reports.ssh_key_reports"
to="/reports/ssh_key_reports"
label="SSH Key Reports"
/>
</SolarMenu.List>
}
/>
Notice how sub menus are also collections of <SolarMenu.Item>
components.

item that displays a user menu item when an authProvider is available or a settings menu item when no authProvider is available but the <Admin>
has a darkTheme set or the i18nProvider supports multiple locales.
It accepts the same props as the <SolarMenuItem>
component.
<SolarMenu.LocalesItem>
Language selector. Changes the locale in the app and persists it in the store so that the app opens with the right locale in the future.
Uses i18nProvider.getLocales()
to get the list of available locales.
Enabled by default in the <SolarMenu>
when the <i18nProvider.getLocales()>
returns multiple locales.
Meant to be used in the secondary sidebar of the <SolarMenu>
component.
It accepts the same props as MUI's <ListItem>
component.
import { SolarMenu } from '@react-admin/navigation';
const MyMenu = () => (
<SolarMenu>
<SolarMenu.LocalesItem />
</SolarMenu>
);
import { SolarMenu } from "@react-admin/navigation";
const MyMenu = () => (
<SolarMenu>
<SolarMenu.LocalesItem />
</SolarMenu>
);
<SolarMenu.ToggleThemeItem>
Button toggling the theme (light or dark).
Enabled by default in the <SolarMenu>
when the <Admin>
component has a darkMode.
It accepts the same props as MUI's <ListItem>
component.
import { SolarMenu } from '@react-admin/navigation';
const MyMenu = () => (
<SolarMenu>
<SolarMenu.ToggleThemeItem />
</SolarMenu>
);
import { SolarMenu } from "@react-admin/navigation";
const MyMenu = () => (
<SolarMenu>
<SolarMenu.ToggleThemeItem />
</SolarMenu>
);
<SolarMenu.UserProfileItem>
This <SolarMenu>
item displays the user name from the authProvider.getIdentity
if available and a logout button.
Meant to be used in the secondary sidebar of the <SolarMenu>
component.
Used by default in the <SolarMenu.UserItem>
component.
It accepts the same props as MUI's <ListItem>
component.
Prop | Required | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
redirectTo | Optional | string | false | The location to redirect the user to when clicking on the logout button. Defaults to '/'. Set to false to disable redirection. |
<SolarAppBar>
An AppBar alternative for the SolarLayout that is only shown on small devices. It displays the app title if provided and the button allowing to open the sidebar.
Usage
You can customize it by passing children:
import { Admin, AppBarProps, Resource, LoadingIndicator } from 'react-admin';
import {
SolarAppBar,
SolarLayout,
SolarLayoutProps,
} from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Search } from '@react-admin/ra-search';
const CustomAppBar = () => (
<SolarAppBar>
<Search />
<LoadingIndicator />
</SolarAppBar>
);
export const CustomLayout = (props: SolarLayoutProps) => (
<SolarLayout {...props} appBar={CustomAppBar} />
);
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={SongList} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ArtistList} />
</Admin>
);
import { Admin, Resource, LoadingIndicator } from "react-admin";
import { SolarAppBar, SolarLayout } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { Search } from "@react-admin/ra-search";
const CustomAppBar = () => (
<SolarAppBar>
<Search />
<LoadingIndicator />
</SolarAppBar>
);
export const CustomLayout = (props) => <SolarLayout {...props} appBar={CustomAppBar} />;
export const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={CustomLayout}>
<Resource name="songs" list={SongList} />
<Resource name="artists" list={ArtistList} />
</Admin>
);
Props
Prop | Required | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
alwaysOn |
Optional | boolean | false | This prop is injected by Layout. You should not use it directly unless you are using a custom layout. If you are using the default layout, use <Layout appBarAlwaysOn> instead. On small devices, this prop make the AppBar always visible. |
children |
Optional | ReactNode | The content to render inside the AppBar. | |
className |
Optional | string | A class name to apply to the AppBar container. | |
color |
Optional | string | 'secondary' | The color of the AppBar. Can be primary, secondary, or inherit. Defaults to secondary. |
container |
Optional | ElementType | HideOnScroll | The component used for the root node. |
<AppLocationContext>
To define or retrieve the current App Location, your React components must be located inside an <AppLocationContext>
. This component creates a React context dedicated to the App Location. It must be contained in the <Admin>
component (in order to read the registered resources), but it must also wrap up all the UI components (that may require access to the app location). So the best place to put it is as a wrapper to the Layout.
import { AppLocationContext } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
import { Admin, Resource, Layout } from 'react-admin';
const MyLayout = props => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...props} />
</AppLocationContext>
);
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource name="posts" list={PostList} />
</Admin>
);
import { AppLocationContext } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
import { Admin, Resource, Layout } from "react-admin";
const MyLayout = (props) => (
<AppLocationContext>
<Layout {...props} />
</AppLocationContext>
);
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider} layout={MyLayout}>
<Resource name="posts" list={PostList} />
</Admin>
);
useDefineAppLocation
Use useDefineAppLocation
to set the app location from a page component.
In the following example, the <SongEditForArtist>
component is a nested resource rendering at the /artists/:id/songs/:songId
path. It uses useDefineAppLocation
to define the app location as artists.edit.songs.edit
, and passes the record
and song
objects as parameters to let the breadcrumb component render the record and song names.
import { useParams } from 'react-router-dom';
import { Edit, SimpleForm, TextInput, DateInput, useGetOne } from 'react-admin';
import { useDefineAppLocation } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const SongEditForArtist = () => {
const { id, songId } = useParams<{ id: string; songId: string }>();
const { data: record } = useGetOne('artists', { id });
const { data: song } = useGetOne('songs', { id: songId });
useDefineAppLocation('artists.edit.songs.edit', { record, song });
return (
<Edit resource="songs" id={songId} redirect={`/artists/${id}/songs`}>
<SimpleForm>
<TextInput source="title" />
<DateInput source="released" />
<TextInput source="writer" />
<TextInput source="producer" />
<TextInput source="recordCompany" label="Label" />
</SimpleForm>
</Edit>
);
};
import { useParams } from "react-router-dom";
import { Edit, SimpleForm, TextInput, DateInput, useGetOne } from "react-admin";
import { useDefineAppLocation } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
const SongEditForArtist = () => {
const { id, songId } = useParams();
const { data: record } = useGetOne("artists", { id });
const { data: song } = useGetOne("songs", { id: songId });
useDefineAppLocation("artists.edit.songs.edit", { record, song });
return (
<Edit resource="songs" id={songId} redirect={`/artists/${id}/songs`}>
<SimpleForm>
<TextInput source="title" />
<DateInput source="released" />
<TextInput source="writer" />
<TextInput source="producer" />
<TextInput source="recordCompany" label="Label" />
</SimpleForm>
</Edit>
);
};
Tip: The <Edit>
component will call dataProvider.getOne("songs", { id: songId })
to fetch the song record. Since the <SongEditForArtist>
component makes the same request, React-admin will deduplicate the calls and only make one request to the dataProvider.
Tip: If you don't call useDefineAppLocation
anywhere on a page, the AppLocationContext will deduce a resource app location from the current URL path (e.g. artists.edit
for the /artists/:id
path).
Here is how a custom Breadcrumb would use location values
to render the record and song names:
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="artists" label="Artists" to="/artists">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }: { record?: Artist }) => record?.name}
to={({ record }: { record?: Artist }) =>
`/artists/${record?.id}`
}
>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="songs"
label="Songs"
to={({ record }: { record?: Artist }) =>
`/artists/${record?.id}/songs`
}
>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ song }: { song?: Song }) => song?.title}
to={({ song }: { song?: Song }) =>
`/artists/${song?.artist_id}/songs/${song?.id}`
}
/>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="create"
label="Create"
to="/artists/create"
/>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
const MyBreadcrumb = () => (
<Breadcrumb>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="artists" label="Artists" to="/artists">
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ record }) => record?.name}
to={({ record }) => `/artists/${record?.id}`}
>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="songs" label="Songs" to={({ record }) => `/artists/${record?.id}/songs`}>
<Breadcrumb.Item
name="edit"
label={({ song }) => song?.title}
to={({ song }) => `/artists/${song?.artist_id}/songs/${song?.id}`}
/>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb.Item>
<Breadcrumb.Item name="create" label="Create" to="/artists/create" />
</Breadcrumb.Item>
</Breadcrumb>
);
useAppLocationState
The useAppLocationState
hook lets you read and write the current App Location. It's a low-level hook that you should use only when:
- You build a custom navigation component that needs to read the current app location
- You need to set the current app location in reaction to a user action (e.g. a click on a menu item).
For any other use case, use useDefineAppLocation
instead.
Its API is similar to that of the React.useState()
hook:
const [location, setLocation] = useAppLocationState();
const [location, setLocation] = useAppLocationState();
Here is how to read the current app location:
import { useAppLocationState } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
const MySubComponent = props => {
const [location] = useAppLocationState();
return <span>{`Hey! You're on the ${location.path} location!`}</span>;
};
import { useAppLocationState } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
const MySubComponent = (props) => {
const [location] = useAppLocationState();
return <span>{`Hey! You're on the ${location.path} location!`}</span>;
};
To define the current app location:
const DensityTab = () => {
const [_, setLocation] = useAppLocationState();
useEffect(() => {
setLocation('experiences.parameters.density');
return () => setLocation();
}, []);
// return (/* ... */);
};
const DensityTab = () => {
const [_, setLocation] = useAppLocationState();
useEffect(() => {
setLocation("experiences.parameters.density");
return () => setLocation();
}, []);
// return (/* ... */);
};
Notice that the useEffect
callback must return a function that resets the app location. This is necessary to let the AppLocationContext
deduce the location from the current URL path for pages with no location.
You can also pass a context object as the second argument to setLocation
. This can be useful e.g to display the label of the current resource in a breadcrumb path.
const DensityTab = ({ density }) => {
const [_, setLocation] = useAppLocationState();
useEffect(() => {
setLocation('experiences.parameters.density', { density });
return () => setLocation();
}, [density]);
// return (/* ... */);
};
const DensityTab = ({ density }) => {
const [_, setLocation] = useAppLocationState();
useEffect(() => {
setLocation("experiences.parameters.density", { density });
return () => setLocation();
}, [density]);
// return (/* ... */);
};
The values passed as second parameter of setLocation
are available in location.values
:
const Breadcrumb = () => {
const [location] = useAppLocationState();
// location = { path: 'experiences.parameters.density', values: { density: 0.1 } }
// return (/* ... */);
};
const Breadcrumb = () => {
const [location] = useAppLocationState();
// location = { path: 'experiences.parameters.density', values: { density: 0.1 } }
// return (/* ... */);
};
Warning: The dashboard
location is a reserved word used for the Dashboard page when it exists.
useAppLocationMatcher
The useAppLocationMatcher
hook returns a function that checks if the path that is passed as an argument matches the current location path.
If the path matches, the match function returns the current location. If not, it returns null
. This can be useful to build custom breadcrumb components.
import { useAppLocationMatcher } from '@react-admin/ra-navigation';
function PostBreadcrumbItem() {
const matcher = useAppLocationMatcher();
const match = matcher('post.edit');
if (!match) return null;
return <>Post "{match.record.title}"</>;
}
import { useAppLocationMatcher } from "@react-admin/ra-navigation";
function PostBreadcrumbItem() {
const matcher = useAppLocationMatcher();
const match = matcher("post.edit");
if (!match) return null;
return <>Post "{match.record.title}"</>;
}

Breaking Change
If you use useAppLocationState
to set the location in a useEffect
hook, you must now return a cleanup function that returns an empty location on unmount:
const DensityTab = () => {
const [_, setLocation] = useAppLocationState();
useEffect(() => {
setLocation('experiences.parameters.density');
+ return () => setLocation();
}, []);
// return (/* ... */);
};
useAppLocationState
is considered a low-level hook and should not be used often - that's why we decided to publish this change in a minor version.
