Data Provider

The data provider found in this project is a modification of the base provider provided by react-admin. The following information has been extracted and modified according to the project from the react-admin Wiki.

Whenever react-admin needs to communicate with the API, it calls methods on the Data Provider object.

It’s the Data Provider’s job to turn these method calls into HTTP requests, and transform the HTTP responses to the data format expected by react-admin. In technical terms, a Data Provider is an adapter for an API.

Here is how this Data Provider maps react-admin calls to API calls:

Method	Usage	Parameters format
getList	Search for resources	?page={int}&row={int}
getOne	Read a single resource, by id	?id={str}
getMany	Read a list of resource, by ids	?ids={str},{str},...
getManyReference	Read a list of resources related to another one	?id={str}
create	Create a single resource	{ data: {Object} }
update	Update a single resource	{ id: {mixed}, data: {Object}, previousData: {Object} }
updateMany	Update multiple resources	{ ids: {mixed[]}, data: {Object} }
delete	Delete a single resource	?id={str}
deleteMany	Delete multiple resources	?ids={str},{str},...
