Update using POST instead of PATCH

[hoIIer]

I have an item previously returned by the api in the form:

  {
    id: 1,
    fieldA: 'abc',
  }

where the schema is defined as:

    schema: {
      widgets: {
        type: 'widgets',
        fields: {
          fieldA: {
            type: 'string',
            readOnly: true,
          },
          fieldB: 'string',
        }
      }
    }

I want to do a PATCH request which according to the docs Defaults to POST when creating a resource, and PATCH when updating.

I am doing the following which is resulting in a POST instead of a PATCH.

  const [patchWidget] = useMutation('widgets');

  const submit = async (widget) => {
    widget.fieldB = new Date();

    await patchWidget(widget));
  }

What is the proper way to create a PATCH request without specifying it as an option in the mutation?

e.g. PATCH /api/widgets/1

edit

I was able to get it working with

    const res = await client.mutate(['widgets', widget.id], {
      fieldB: new Date(),
    });

But will leave open because wondering if I need to use the client directly to get PATCH behavior

@Holler the useMutation hook works the same as the client. This should work:

const [patchWidget] = useMutation(['widgets', widget.id]);
