Dispatching Event after Action

Hi guys, I added a PriceAssistantAction class to my application which is used at a specific tab in my ContractResource while editing a contract. The action itself is working perfectly fine, I just noticed one issue: When I call $livewire->dispatch('$refresh') in after(), the application does not refresh the user interface.

Any ideas? 🙂

Patrick Boivin•9mo ago

Not sure, but try protected $listeners = ['myRefresh' => '$refresh']; And then dispatch myRefresh instead of $refresh

alexanderkroneis•9mo ago

$refresh is working in other places of the application. :/ My current assumption is that $livewire->dispatch('$refresh') is accessing another Livewire component

were this working for v2? https://laravel-livewire.com/docs/2.x/actions#magic-actions if not mistaken I stumbled to this not long ago in v3, this doesn't seem to be supported anymore, as it is not documented in v3

Patrick Boivin•9mo ago

If you dd($livewire), do you get the expected result? (I'm guessing the Page class) Good point, it's possible... I'm using it only on a v2 project atm

wyChoong•9mo ago

can't be sure thou, because in the v3 project that i upgraded is not fully tested yet it seems to be working i think i recalled it, $listeners is not documented in v3, but still supported, the example you shown is working and I'm using it the issue I had is in v3 doc it wasnt clear how we should trigger $refresh as the doc is focused on using php attributes #[On]

alexanderkroneis•9mo ago

I never worked with v2, so I can't say tbh Yes, same for me.

wyChoong•9mo ago

so is your question answered?

alexanderkroneis•9mo ago

dd($livewire) is returning the correct component. :/ Well, not really. 😅 I still don't know how to refresh the UI since it's not documented anywhere. $refresh is also not mentioned in the upgrade guide of Livewire itself

wyChoong•9mo ago

// add this to the page class
protected $listeners = ['myRefresh' => '$refresh'];

// in your action
Action::make('action')
...
->after(fn($livewire) => $livewire->dispatch('myRefresh));

// add this to the page class
protected $listeners = ['myRefresh' => '$refresh'];

// in your action
Action::make('action')
...
->after(fn($livewire) => $livewire->dispatch('myRefresh));

can you try this?

alexanderkroneis•9mo ago

Sure, one moment. It did not refresh. 😅

wyChoong•9mo ago

ok now I recall x2 what was the issue LOL the $refresh doesn't seems to be supported anymore, hence not documented, not sure why not mentioned in upgrade guide, maybe you should submit a discussion at livewire repo so the for this i workaround in my app in this way

// the action
Actions\Action::make('test')
  ...
  ->after(fn ($livewire) => $livewire->dispatch('myRefresh')),

// in your livewire page
#[On('myRefresh')]
public function refresh()
{
    // here should run whatever you want to refresh/recalculate for the page
    // for example an Edit form
    $this->fillForm();
}

// the action
Actions\Action::make('test')
  ...
  ->after(fn ($livewire) => $livewire->dispatch('myRefresh')),

// in your livewire page
#[On('myRefresh')]
public function refresh()
{
    // here should run whatever you want to refresh/recalculate for the page
    // for example an Edit form
    $this->fillForm();
}

don't quote me if it breaking changes in future 😂

alexanderkroneis•9mo ago

$refresh is working in other places of the same application. I'll just finish my current thing and I'll show you another example where it's working 🙂

wyChoong•9mo ago

added as todo for me to check everywhere in my app LOL

alexanderkroneis•9mo ago

e.g.

Tables\Actions\AttachAction::make()
    ->recordSelectOptionsQuery(fn($livewire, Builder $query) => $query->whereBelongsTo($livewire->ownerRecord->hotel))
    ->preloadRecordSelect()
    ->after(fn ($livewire) => $livewire->dispatch('$refresh')),

Tables\Actions\AttachAction::make()
    ->recordSelectOptionsQuery(fn($livewire, Builder $query) => $query->whereBelongsTo($livewire->ownerRecord->hotel))
    ->preloadRecordSelect()
    ->after(fn ($livewire) => $livewire->dispatch('$refresh')),

this is in RoomsRelationManager.php After I attach a room the page is refreshed, let me provide a screencast You can see the issue and the working example in one video: "Saisonassistent" is not refresh the page after submitting, but added a room via the relation manager is refreshing.

and this $livewire is the page or the relation manager?

alexanderkroneis•9mo ago

Good question, let me check

  #__name: "app.filament.resources.contract-resource.relation-managers.rooms-relation-manager"

  #__name: "app.filament.resources.contract-resource.relation-managers.rooms-relation-manager"

so that's different from the actions 🤔 isn't dispatch dispatching the event through the whole application? 🤔

wyChoong•9mo ago

yes it is i think i have an answer for this the form are filled in mount and this is only called once for the component, hence it is not refreshed when you dispatch $refresh what you are seeing refreshed are form schema, not the content thus your tabs are refreshed so my question will be, is there any console errors in your browser? should the fields in the new tabs contains data and is it filled correctly? and is the form submittable? can you try on this after the RM dispatched $refresh and without reloading your browser

alexanderkroneis•9mo ago

I‘ll check that tomorrow. I‘m out for today 💭 The form is not submittable, FYI. so I've to find another solution :/
