Form in filters

What you were expecting: Add a search filter in <List />

What happened instead: I get an error about the input field: Error: useField must be used inside of a <Form> component

Steps to reproduce:

1. Get a Users from List, using custom dataprovider, based on simpleRest (here I removed the query string, to get the values from the API)
2. Using the tutorial, I added filters like the example, with filters property
3. Basically, I copy the filters from the tutorial, and if the field use alwaysOn, I get an error when I try to render the view, and if I didn’t use alwaysOn, and add the new filter, I get the previous error about useField.
4. If I add a “form” I didn’t get the error, but that is not specified in the tutorial

const UserFilter: React.FC = (props) => (
  <Filter {...props}>
    {/* <SimpleForm> */}
    <SearchInput source="firstName" />
    <QuickFilter
      source="watchTutorialVideo"
      label="Tutorial"
      defaultValue={true}
    />
    <QuickFilter
      source="inviteThreeFriends"
      label="(3)friends"
      defaultValue={true}
    />
    <QuickFilter
      source="completeOnboardingProcess"
      label="Onboarding"
      defaultValue={true}
    />
    {/* </SimpleForm> */}
  </Filter>
) 

…

<List
      {...props}
      title="User List"
      filters={<UserFilter />}
      bulkActionButtons={<UsersBulkActionButtons />}
    >

You’re using a SelectField instead of a SelectInput…

Anyway, I realize you need support more than you declare a bug in the library. The right channel for that is StackOverflow, as we keep the GitHub issues only for problems with the library itself, not its usage.

So I’m closing the issue.

I can’t reproduce the error on the Simple example. Could you please fork the Simple example CodeSandbox (https://codesandbox.io/s/github/marmelab/react-admin/tree/master/examples/simple) and tweak the Posts list until you can reproduce the error, then paste the link of you fork here?
