Is there a way to "simulate" pressing the refresh button to refresh a List? I have a list that I want it to update every 10 seconds. Is there a way to "press" the refresh button every 10 seconds?
My list name is ActiveJobsList.
This is what I have at the moment:
export function autoRefresh() {
var counter = 10;
var id;
if(location.href.includes("activejobs")) {
id = setInterval(function() {
counter--;
if(counter < 0 && location.href.includes("activejobs")) {
// What should go here?
clearInterval(id);
}
}, 1000);
}
else if (!location.href.includes("activejobs"))
{
clearInterval(id);
}
}
You could leverage React.Component.shouldComponentUpdate(), on your ActiveJobsList

Okay so I managed to figure it out.
I used
var x = document.getElementsByTagName('button');
console.log(x);
To figure out which button corresponded to the refresh button for admin-on-rest. In my case, it was the second button in the array.
Here is my updated code.
export function autoRefresh() {
var counter = 30;
var id;
if(location.href.includes("activejobs")) {
id = setInterval(function() {
counter--;
if(counter < 0 && location.href.includes("activejobs")) {
document.getElementsByTagName('button')[1].click();
counter = 30;
}
}, 1000);
}
else if (!location.href.includes("activejobs"))
{
counter = 30;
}
}
I have created a component that provides a drop down menu for auto update setting. Here is the code and below it is an example of how to invoke it.
class AutoUpdt extends Component {
static propTypes = { setAutoUpdate : PropTypes.func
, interval : PropTypes.array
, iconColor : PropTypes.any
}
static defaultProps = { interval : [10,30,60,120,300,600,900,1800,3600]
, iconColor : '#00bcd4'
}
constructor(props) { super(props)
this.state = { open : false
, needrefresh : false
, intervaltime : false
}
}
handleTouchTap(event) { event.preventDefault()
this.setState({ open: true, anchorEl: event.currentTarget, })
}
handleRequestClose() { this.setState({ open: false, })
}
handleShow(event) { let intervaltime = event.currentTarget.innerText.toLowerCase().split(' (secs)')[0].trim()
let newintevaltime = (this.state.intervaltime === false) ? intervaltime : false
this.props.setAutoUpdate( newintevaltime )
this.setState({ open: false, needrefresh: true, intervaltime : newintevaltime})
}
render() {
return ( <div style={{ display: 'inline-block' }}>
<IconButton tooltip="Set Auto Update"
iconStyle={{ color: this.props.iconColor }}
onTouchTap={this.handleTouchTap.bind(this)} ><AutoIcon /></IconButton>
<Popover open={this.state.open}
anchorEl={this.state.anchorEl}
anchorOrigin={{ horizontal: 'left', vertical: 'bottom' }}
targetOrigin={{ horizontal: 'left', vertical: 'top' }}
onRequestClose={this.handleRequestClose.bind(this)} >
<Menu>
{this.props.interval.map( el =>
<ListItem style={( el.toString() !== this.state.intervaltime )
? { color:'#00bcd4' , margin: 0, padding : 2 }
: { color: '#f48fb1' , margin: 0, padding : 2 } }
data-key={ el.toString()}
key={el.toString()}
primaryText={ el.toString() + ' (secs)'}
onTouchTap={this.handleShow.bind(this)} /> )}
</Menu >
</Popover>
</div>)
}
}
// It is invoked by using these two functions in another component
checkMounted(){ this.props.checkMounted && this.props.checkMounted() && this.updateData()
}
setAutoUpdate = ( intervaltimer, checkMounted) => {
const this_ = this
this.state.intervaltimer && clearInterval(this.state.intervaltimer)
this.setState( intervaltimer ? { intervaltimer : setInterval( this_.checkMounted.bind(this_), +intervaltimer * 1000) } : { intervaltimer : false} )
}
// And using this line in the render function of the calling component
{ this.props.hasAuto && <AutoUpdt setAutoUpdate={this.setAutoUpdate} icon={<NavigationRefresh />} /> }
