The
record
prop injection in fields is magical, and a source of incomprehension for react-admin learners. Why do<TextField source="title" />
work as a<Datagrid>
child, but not in a custom Show layout?We've recently introduced the
RecordContext
. It's time we enable support for this context in Field components, to remove the incomprehension.This change is totally backwards compatible. It also prepares v4, where we'll remove the
record
prop injection.
