react-router-dom useHistory() not working


The useHistory() hook is not working in my project. I have it in different components but none of them work. I am using "react-router-dom": "^5.2.0",

import {useHistory} from 'react-router-dom'

const history = useHistory()

const logout = () => {    
   toggleMenu()
   setUser(null)
   dispatch({type: 'LOGOUT'})
   history.push('/')
}

And also in action its not working

export const signin = (formdata, history, setError) => async (dispatch) => {
try {
    const {data} = await API.signIn(formdata)
    if(data.error){
        setError(data.message)
    }else{
        dispatch({type: SIGNIN, data})
        history.push('/dashboard')
    }

   } catch (error) {
    setError(error)
    console.log(error)
  }
}

Here is my router.js file

const Router = () => {
    const user = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('profile'))
    return (
       <BrowserRouter>
                <>
                    {user && <Navigation/>}
                    <Switch>
                        <Route path='/page-not-found' component={Auth}/>
                        <Route path='/' exact component={()=>((user && user.result) ? <Redirect to="/dasboard"/> : <Auth/>)} />
                        
                        <Route path='/dashboard' component={() => (user ? <Dashboard/> : <Redirect to='/'/>)} />
                        <Route path='/books-purchase' component={() => (user ? <BooksPage/> : <Redirect to='/' />)} />
                    
                    </Switch>
                </>
            
        </BrowserRouter>
      )
  }

Solution

  • After some investigation, I found that there is a bug in react-router-dom version ^5.2.0. See this and this . I would suggest you to downgrade react-router-dom version to 4.10.1
