Snapshot Missing - View Column with Livewire Component
The Problem:
I was facing an issue where Livewire components were not rendering correctly when changing the pagination state of a Filament table. Specifically, when I switched from page 2 to 'all' records, the avatars for some records weren't loading properly.
The Solution:
After diving into the Livewire and Filament documentation, I realised the problem was with how Livewire handles dynamic components. The key was to make each Livewire component instance unique for every render, especially when pagination states change.
I used Livewire’s
wire:key
directive to uniquely identify each instance of my player-avatars component. The key was to include the current pagination page number in the wire:key attribute. This way, every time the page number changes, Livewire knows to re-render the component.
By appending getTableRecords()->currentPage()
to the wire:key
, each avatar component is now tied not only to the record's ID but also to the current page number. This ensures proper re-rendering when the pagination state changes.
Why This Works:
Livewire needs to uniquely identify each component instance to manage its lifecycle effectively, especially when dealing with dynamic content like pagination. By adding the current page number to the wire:key
, we help Livewire understand when it needs to refresh the components, ensuring our UI stays in sync with our application's state.
Hope this helps anyone who might be facing similar issues. 🚀11 replies
Snapshot Missing - View Column with Livewire Component
Still trying to figure out what is up. Other issues with similar errors give a potential fix by using
wire:key
however I have;
@livewire('player-avatars', ['uuid' => $getRecord()->minecraft_uuid, key('player-avatar-' . $getRecord()->id)
Unsure how to fix at this stage :/11 replies
