Rendering a Datagrid outside of a resource

[oliverox]

react-admin version 3.7.0

Hi!
I used to be able to render a Datagrid not attached to a specific resource. I used to pass the Datagrid an array of items via the data prop and their respective ids via the ids prop. How to achieve this now in version 3.7.0?
Based on the following lines, it seems RA is now only reading the ListContext for data and ids. I am unable to find a way to pass my data and ids props to my Datagrid now. Thank you for your help.

react-admin/packages/ra-ui-materialui/src/list/Datagrid.tsx

Lines 84 to 96 in bc9ac4e

	const {
	basePath,
	currentSort,
	data,
	ids,
	loaded,
	onSelect,
	onToggleItem,
	resource,
	selectedIds,
	setSort,
	total,
	} = useListContext(props);

Hi,

You must now enclose your Datagrid inside a ListContext.Provider. See the jsdoc of that component for details.

i just ran into this issue when i tried to upgrade from 3.3.0. its no longer clear from docs how to do datagrids with custom data. what ended up working was:

<ListContext.Provider
// @ts-ignore (we will remove this at some point and pass in the rest of the data that is required)
      value={{
        data,
        currentSort,
        ids
      }}
    >
<DataGrid  /> // dont need to pass additional `data`, `ids` or `currentSort` props
    </ListContext.Provider>

based on the documentation we initially tried using useListController but that requires the data to be stored a certain way in redux and for my use case was not the right answer. hope this helps someone else.
