useSlimPatients
Lists patients through the Slim patient-list endpoint.
When to use it
Use the typed list query; results are wrapped in a page.
Setup
Call it from a client-side React component below OvokProvider so it uses the client configured at that provider boundary.
Hook arguments
| Argument | Type | Details |
|---|---|---|
params (optional) | SlimPatientListQuery | Typed query or list options; see the API reference for its complete field contract. |
TypeScript signature
(params?: SlimPatientListQuery): OvokRequestState<SlimPage<SlimPatientListItem>>
Request state
The response payload is SlimPage<SlimPatientListItem>. A successful empty result, a failed request, and a request that has not returned data are distinct states.
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
data | Latest successful response, or undefined before one is available. |
loading | Whether the request is in progress. |
error | Request error as an Error, or undefined when no request has failed. |
reload | Repeats the request with the current arguments. |
Request behavior
The hook loads when its required inputs are available and reloads when those inputs change. Use reload for an explicit refresh; render loading, error, and successful no-result states separately.
Example
Handle the hook's loading and error states before rendering the result.
import { useSlimPatients } from '@ovok/core';
export function SlimPatientsExample({ params }: { params?: Parameters<typeof useSlimPatients>[0] }) {
const { data, loading, error, reload } = useSlimPatients(params);
if (loading) return <p>Loading…</p>;
if (error) return <p role="alert">{error.message}</p>;
return <section><button onClick={reload}>Reload</button><pre>{JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)}</pre></section>;
