Admin on rest custom button - admin-on-rest

Question

I would like to make a custom button that would be used to fetch. I want the button to be usable like this:
export const LogList = (props) => (
<List {...props} perPage={100} title="Logs and Reports" filters={< FileFilter/>}>
<Datagrid>
<TextField source="inputfile" label="Input File" />
<TextField source="cycle" label="Cycle" />
<TextField source="job" label="Job" />
<TextField source="name" label="File Name" />
<ShowButton/>
<JobCancel/>
</Datagrid>
</List>
);
Where is my button is <JobCancel/> up above (similar to how ShowButton is implemented). I want the button to fetch(controller_service/archivedfiles/${id}, { method: 'DELETE', body:{} }); on click.
Is something like this possible?
P.S. I am new to Admin on rest

You can also find an example for custom actions in the demo repository for reviews (accept, reject): https://github.com/marmelab/admin-on-rest-demo/tree/master/src/reviews

Misread your question. So am editing my answer.
I have custom button for my list view.
It's a straightforward Redux connected component.
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import RaisedButton from 'material-ui/RaisedButton';
import { editorAssign as editorAssignAction} from '../customActions/EditorAssignActions'
import styles from '../styles/styles'
class EditorAssignButton extends Component {
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.state = { disabled: false };
}
handleClick = () => {
const { editorAssign, record } = this.props
editorAssign(record.id) //call the action
this.setState({
disabled: true
})
}
render() {
const editorAssignStyle = styles.editorAssignStyle;
return (<RaisedButton label='Add To Edit'
onClick={this.handleClick}
disabled={ this.state.disabled }
primary={true}
/>)
}
}
EditorAssignButton.propTypes = {
editorAssign: PropTypes.func,
record: PropTypes.object
}
export default connect(null, {
editorAssign: editorAssignAction
})(EditorAssignButton)
AOR has documentation on how to write custom actions and trigger side effects with Sagas.
https://marmelab.com/admin-on-rest/Actions.html
DELETE is an action available with AOR Rest so your requirement should be quite standard.
Here is the EditorAssign view. It is a straightforward list and datagrid component
import React from 'react';
import { ReferenceField,
ChipField,
SelectInput,
ReferenceInput,
TextField,
List,
Filter,
Datagrid} from 'admin-on-rest';
import AssignTaleEditToSelf from '../buttons/AssignTaleEditToSelf'
const EditorAssignView = (props) => {
return (
<List {...props} title="Fresh Tales" perPage={20} sort={{ field: 'id', order: 'ASC' }} filter={{"status": "NEW"}} filters={ <EditorFilter /> } >
<Datagrid >
<TextField source="id" label="id" style={{ textAlign: 'center'}} />
<TextField source="taleTitle" label="Title" />
<TextField source="taleText" label="Content" style={{maxWidth: '150px'}} />
<ReferenceField label="Writer" source="writer_id" reference="appUsers">
<ChipField source="name" />
</ReferenceField>
<AssignTaleEditToSelf label="Assign To Self" />
</CustomDatagrid>
</List>
)
}
}
