How to navigate on path by button click in react router v4?


I have this paths in react-router-dom:

 <BrowserRouter>
  <div>
  <Route exact path='/(index.html)?' component={Home}/> {/* app = home */}
  <Route  path='/register' component={Registration}/>
  </div>
</BrowserRouter>

everything is working fine, now anywhere in my components I want to change path by onClick, a code like this:

<button onClick={() => history.push('/the/path') }> change path </button>

how can I do that?


Solution

  • import {withRouter} from 'react-router-dom';
    ...
    
    class App extends React.Component {
      ...
    
      nextPath(path) {
        this.props.history.push(path);
      }
    
      render() {
        return (
          <button onClick={() => this.nextPath('/the/path') }>
            change path 
          </button>
        );
      }
    }
    
    export default withRouter(App);
