EDIT : I found the solution, I forget switch component in my routes.js
I have created a route like that : /post/:id
my routes.js look like :
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { BrowserRouter, Route } from "react-router-dom";
import Posts from "./components/Posts";
import Post from "./components/Post";
class Routes extends Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<BrowserRouter>
<div>
<Route exact path="/" component={Posts} />
<Route path="/post/:id" component={Post} />
</div>
</BrowserRouter>
</div>
);
}
}
export default Routes;
At my /route I listed all my posts, and when I click on one of them I update the url http://localhost:3000/post/1 for example.
PS : I tried to use withRouter function as it says in the official document of react-router, but this case not work in my case.
The file in question is post.js it look like :
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { active_post } from "../actions/index";
import { bindActionCreators } from "redux";
import { connect } from "react-redux";
import { Link } from "react-router-dom";
class Post extends Component {
componentWillMount() {
this.props.active_post(this.props.match.params.id);
}
render() {
console.log(this.props.post);
return (
<div>
<h1>Detail d'un post</h1>
<p>{this.props.match.params.id}</p>
</div>
);
}
}
function mapStateToProps(state) {
return {
post: state.activePost
};
}
function mapDispatchToProps(dispatch) {
return bindActionCreators({ active_post }, dispatch);
}
export default connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)(Post);
So for example, if I enter manually in the URL bar http://localhost:3000/post/3 for example I have the component and the console.log() with the post when I need.
So please if you have a solution for this case I take this.
Thanks you :)
You should try adding a Switch from react-router-dom around your routes.
<BrowserRouter>
<div>
<Switch>
<Route exact path="/" component={Posts} />
<Route path="/post/:id" component={Post} />
</Switch>
</div>
</BrowserRouter>
Don't forget to include the Switch module from react-router-dom in your component.
import { Route, Switch } from 'react-router-dom';

I am trying to make a single web application. Basically, I am trying to use the ReactRouter to display what is passed as a Route Parameter. However, I am unable to do that. To check if somethings wrong, I decided to console.log out this.props.match, still nothing shows up. Could someone explain what the problem is? And a possible get around?
My code is-
import React from 'react';
export default class Post extends React.Component {
state = {
id: null
}
componentDidMount(props) {
console.log(this.props.match);
}
render = () => {
return (<div>Hello WOrld</div>)
}
}
The App.js file:
import React, { Fragment, Component } from 'react';
import Navbar from './components/Navbar';
import Home from './components/Home';
import Contact from './components/Contact';
import About from './components/About'
import Post from './components/Post';
import { BrowserRouter, Route } from 'react-router-dom';
class App extends Component {
render = () => {
return (
<BrowserRouter>
<div className="App">
<Navbar />
<Route exact path="/" component={Home} />
<Route path="/contact" component={Contact} />
<Route path="/about" component={About} />
<Route path="/:post-id" component = {Post} />
</div>
</BrowserRouter>
);
}
}
export default App;
I just ran your code on my end, it looks like the problem is using /:post-id. I changed that to /:pid and it worked. I got the below object when I console log this.props.match
{
"path":"/:pid",
"url":"/1",
"isExact":true,
"params":
{
"pid":"1"
}
}
I hope this helps.
You have to load the component with router
try this
import { withRouter } from 'react-router-dom';
class Post extends React.Component {
state = {
id: null
}
componentDidMount(props) {
console.log(this.props.match);
}
render = () => {
return (<div>Hello WOrld</div>)
}
}
export default withRouter(Post);
I am trying to route to a class component but it gives me an error. When I change the component to a functional component, the routing works. How do I route to class components?
I am new to using react-router. I first had a functional component to route to. But once I realized the component needs to be a class, I changed it to a class and now the routing shows
"Cannot GET /explore/words'.
index.js
import React from "react";
import { render } from "react-dom";
import { BrowserRouter } from "react-router-dom";
import App from "./App";
render(
<BrowserRouter>
<App />
</BrowserRouter>,
document.querySelector("#root")
);
App.js
import React from "react";
import { BrowserRouter as Router, Route, Switch } from "react-router-dom";
import HomePage from "./pages/HomePage";
import ExplorePage from "./pages/ExplorePage";
function App() {
return (
<Router>
<div>
<header>
<nav>Course Finder</nav>
</header>
<Route path="/" component={HomePage} />
<Route path="/explore/:campus" component={ExplorePage} />
</div>
</Router>
);
}
export default App;
Explore.js
import React, { Component } from "react";
class ExplorePage extends Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<h1>Explore</h1>
</div>
);
}
}
export default ExplorePage;
Expected result was to see the 'Explore' heading.
I get 'Cannot GET /explore/words' instead.
This is working fine, all you have to do is add /explore/one to url to see the route working.

I'm trying to build a simple example project where the user is redirected to the 'contact' page upon clicking a button, using React. I'm trying to achieve this by setting the value of a state property. When I run the code I have, it does change the browser address bar URL to that of the contact page, but does not seem to actually load the component - I get a blank page instead. If I manually navigate to that URL (http://localhost:3000/contact) I can see the contents.
Here are my App.js and Contact.js files -
App.js
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { BrowserRouter as Router, Switch, Route, Link, Redirect } from 'react-router-dom';
import Contact from './Contact';
class App extends Component {
state = {
redirect: false
}
setRedirect = () => {
this.setState({
redirect: true
})
}
renderRedirect = () => {
if (this.state.redirect) {
return <Redirect to='/contact' />
}
}
render() {
return (
<Router>
<Switch>
<Route exact path='/contact' component={Contact} />
</Switch>
<div>
{this.renderRedirect()}
<button onClick={this.setRedirect}>Redirect</button>
</div>
</Router>
)
}
}
export default App;
Contact.js
import React, { Component } from 'react';
class Contact extends Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<h2>Contact Me</h2>
<input type="text"></input>
</div>
);
}
}
export default Contact;
Using state isn't really a requirement for me, so other (preferably simpler) methods of redirection would be appreciated too.
Since your button is nothing more than a link, you could replace it with:
<Link to="/contact">Redirect</Link>
There are many alternatives though, you could for example look into BrowserRouter's browserHistory:
import { browserHistory } from 'react-router'
browserHistory.push("/contact")
Or perhaps this.props.history.push("/contact").
There are pros and cons to every method, you'll have to look into each and see which you prefer.
I got here for a similiar situation. It's possible use withRouter (https://reactrouter.com/web/api/withRouter) to handle that.
This example was tested with "react": "^16.13.1","react-router-dom": "^5.2.0" and "history": "^5.0.0" into "dependecies" sections in package.json file.
In App.js I have the BrowserRouter (usually people import BrowserRouter as Router, I prefer work with original names) with Home and Contact.
App.js
import React, { Component } from "react";
import {
BrowserRouter,
Switch,
Route,
} from "react-router-dom";
import Home from "./pages/Home";
import Contact from "./pages/Contact";
class App extends Component
{
// stuff...
render()
{
return (
<BrowserRouter>
<Switch>
<Route path="/contact">
<Contact />
</Route>
<Route path="/">
<Home />
</Route>
</Switch>
</BrowserRouter>
);
}
}
export default App;
ASIDE 1: The Route with path="/contact" is placed before path="/" because Switch render the first match, so put Home at the end. If you have path="/something" and path="/something/:id" place the more specific route (with /:id in this case) before. (https://reactrouter.com/web/api/Switch)
ASIDE 2: I'm using class component but I believe (I didn't test it) a functional component will also work.
In Home.js and Contact.js I use withRouter associated with export keyword. This makes Home and Contact components receive the history object of BrowserRouter via props. Use method push() to add "/contact" and "/" to the history stack. (https://reactrouter.com/web/api/history).
Home.js
import React from "react";
import {
withRouter
} from "react-router-dom";
export const Home = ( props ) =>
{
return (
<div>
Home!
<button
onClick={ () => props.history.push( "/contact" ) }
>
Get in Touch
<button>
</div>
);
}
export default withRouter( Home );
Contact.js
import React from "react";
import {
withRouter
} from "react-router-dom";
export const Contact = ( props ) =>
{
return (
<div>
Contact!
<button
onClick={ () => props.history.push( "/" ) }
>
Go Home
<button>
</div>
);
}
export default withRouter( Contact );
Particularly, I'm using also in a BackButton component with goBack() to navigate backwards:
BackButton.js
import React from "react";
import {
withRouter
} from "react-router-dom";
export const BackButton = ( props ) =>
{
return (
<button
onClick={ () => props.history.goBack() }
>
Go back
<button>
);
}
export default withRouter( BackButton );
So I could modify the Contact to:
Contact.js (with BackButton)
import React from "react";
import BackButton from "../components/BackButton";
export const Contact = ( props ) =>
{
return (
<div>
Contact!
<BackButton />
</div>
);
}
export default Contact; // now I'm not using history in this file.
// the navigation responsability is inside BackButton component.
Above was the best solution for me. Other possible solutions are:
useHistory Hook (https://reactrouter.com/web/api/Hooks)
work with Router instead BrowserRouter - (https://reactrouter.com/web/api/Router)
I have a react web app with a sidemenu. Whenever a user clicks on the link in the sidemenu, they are routed to a page that is rendered at the right side of the sidemenu. My question is, how do I do login for such a usecase seeing as any page I route to renders to the right of the sidemenu. I want the login page to be full screen without the side menu showing. This is what App.js looks like.
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { HashRouter } from "react-router-dom";
import Navigation from "./pages/General/components/Navigation";
import SideMenu from "./pages/General/components/SideMenu";
import "../src/css/App.css";
class App extends Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<HashRouter>
<div className="main-wrapper">
<SideMenu />
<Navigation />
</div>
</HashRouter>
</div>
);
}
}
export default App;
Here is Navigation.js
import React from "react";
import { Route } from "react-router-dom";
import CalendarPage from "../../Calendar/CalendarPage";
import DoctorsList from "../../Doctors/DoctorsList";
import PatientsList from "../../Patients/PatientsList";
import AdminUsersList from "../../AdminUsers/AdminUsersList";
import SpecialitiesList from "../../Specialities/SpecialitiesList";
const Navigation = () => {
return (
<div className="mainarea">
<Route exact path="/" component={CalendarPage} />
<Route exact path="/scheduler" component={CalendarPage} />
<Route exact path="/doctors" component={DoctorsList} />
<Route exact path="/patients" component={PatientsList} />
<Route exact path="/admin-users" component={AdminUsersList} />
<Route exact path="/specialities" component={SpecialitiesList} />
</div>
);
};
export default Navigation;
The best solution I can figure out in terms of a clean design, is to implement another router in your App.jsx, because you are implementing the routing inside your component, and you need another one for your login page.
Then, your App.jsx could be like this:
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { Redirect, Route, Switch } from "react-router-dom";
import LogIn from "./pages/General/components/Login";
import HomePage from "./pages/General/components/HomePage";
import "../src/css/App.css";
class App extends Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<Switch>
<Route path={'/login'} component={LogIn} />
<Route path={'/'} component={HomePage} />
<Redirect to="/" />
</Switch>
</div>
);
}
}
export default App;
Then, for your HomePage do the following
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { HashRouter } from "react-router-dom";
import Navigation from "./pages/General/components/Navigation";
import SideMenu from "./pages/General/components/SideMenu";
import "../src/css/App.css";
class HomePage extends Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<HashRouter>
<div className="main-wrapper">
<SideMenu />
<Navigation />
</div>
</HashRouter>
</div>
);
}
}
export default HomePage;
I hope it helps!
Here is my solution, it not exactly a solution, but it will give you a basic idea on how to implement this.
The idea is to place the Login component in app.js, and conditionally display it if the user is logged in.
You will have to pass a handler function to login component through which you will be able to control app.js state.
When login will be sucessfull, u can show the Navigation and Sidemenu component.
import { Fragment } from "react";
import Login from "path/to/login";
class App extends Component {
state = { isLoggedIn: false };
loginHandler = () => {
this.setState({
isLoggedIn: true
});
};
render() {
return (
<div>
<div className="main-wrapper">
{isLoggedIn ? (
<Fragment>
<SideMenu />
<Navigation />
</Fragment>
) : (
<Login loginHandler={this.loginHandler} />
)}
</div>
</div>
);
}
}
Also you need write a separate router file, which will contain the main app.
This is used to show the app component when navigated to /
import React from 'react';
import { HashRouter, Route } from 'react-router-dom';
import App from './app';
const MainRoute = () => (
<HashRouter>
<Route path="/" component={App} />
</HashRouter>
);
export default MainRoute;
I am working on a React.js web app , for some reasons I am not able to pass url parameters.
An example is being shown below:
Routes:
import React from "react";
import {BrowserRouter, Route, Switch, Redirect} from 'react-router-dom';
import Helloworld from './components/helloworld/helloworld.component';
import SecondView from './components/secondview/secondview.component';
import ThirdView from "./components/thirdview/thirdview.component";
const AppRoutes = () => (
<BrowserRouter>
<Switch>
<Route exact path='/' component={Helloworld}/>
<Route path='/secondview' component={SecondView}/>
<Route path='/thirdview' component={ThirdView}/>
<Route path='/thirdview/:number' component={ThirdView}/>
<Redirect from='*' to='/' />
</Switch>
</BrowserRouter>
);
export default AppRoutes;
Secondview Component
import React from 'react';
import {Link, withRouter} from 'react-router-dom';
class SecondView extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
}
componentDidMount() {
console.log("I am being called SecondView component...");
}
render() {
return (
<div className={"boxDiv"}>
<p>Second View</p>
<Link to={{pathname: '/thirdview/7'}}> GO to third view with parameter value. </Link>
</div>
);
}
}
export default withRouter(SecondView);
Thirdview comopnent:
import React from 'react';
import { Route, Link,withRouter } from 'react-router-dom';
import FourthView from "../fourthview/fourthview.component";
class ThirdView extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
}
componentDidMount() {
}
render() {
console.log(this.props.match.params);
return (
<div className={"boxDiv"}>
<p>Third View</p>
{ console.log(this.props)}
<h1>parameter passed: (#{this.props.params.number})</h1>
</div>
);
}
}
export default withRouter(ThirdView);
What I want, is to be able to get /:number value on my thirdview component! Anyone knows how to achieve such thing in React.js? Are there other ways doing this?
What I get is empty object!
I think it should be:
{this.props.match.params.number}
instead of
{this.props.params.number}
and you don't need withRouter on ThirdView and SecondView as are passed to Route already.
EDIT:
Since you want to render the same component for /thirdview and /thirdview/7 use optional param matcher
<Switch>
<Route exact path='/' component={Helloworld}/>
<Route path='/secondview' component={SecondView}/>
<Route path='/thirdview/:number?' component={ThirdView}/>
<Redirect from='*' to='/' />
</Switch>
