Select project page in react-admin












0















I'm working on a management dashboard using react-admin and I'm looking for a way to allow a user to login, select which project he wants to work on, and only then show him the dashboard with data specific to the selected project.



Something like the way the firebase console works.



What's the best way to create something like this?



EDIT



In response to linguamachina's very friendly advice I'll add some more details:



I'm not looking for UI or UX solutions. I'm using the react-admin library and I'm trying to understand what would be the best practice for this use case.
My data source looks something like this:
http://my_api_server/projects/project_id/some_resource/resource_id



Currently I've written my dataProvider so that it requires the project id on initialisation:



const dataProvider = myDataProvider(projectId)
const App = () => (
<Admin dataProvider={dataProvider}>
<Resource name="some_resource">
</Admin>
)


This works ok but I would like the option to change the project on the fly. If it's possible to send the project ID as an extra parameter in the resource request it could really solve this issue.
Alternatively, I though about saving the project ID into localStorage and getting it from there during requests.



I'm just looking for the most simple solution that can use as much of the built-in functionality of react-admin.

  • Your question is broad and opinion-based. Try to limit posts to a single question. As it stands you're asking about application design, technology choices, UX and UI all at once. You would do better if you research available options for each of your problem areas, and come back with specific questions once you have at least made an effort yourself.
