I am new to React and Redux, I am actually creating a code of myself but I got stuck with a router kind of thing inside stateless component.
So, Actually I need to route to a component by using this.props.history.push('/somepath'). This is not happening inside a stateless component.
My Stateless component is
import React from "react"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import "bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css";
import "./header.css";
const Header = () => ({
handleAuthor() {
this.props.history('/somepath')// this is not working
},
render(){
return (
<div className = "header">
<h1 onClick = {this.handleAuthor.bind(this)}>{this.props.headerText}</h1>
</div>
);
}
});
export default Header;
I am calling this inside another stateless component like mainlayout
import React from "react"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import Header from "../header/Header"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import Footer from "../footer/Footer"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import "./mainLayout.css";
const MainLayout = props => ({
render() {
return (
<div className="App">
<Header headerText = "RK Boilerplate"/>
<div className = "mainLayout">
<main>{props.children}</main>
</div>
<Footer />
</div>
);
}
});
export default MainLayout;
My main file index.js looks like this
import React from "react"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import ReactDOM from "react-dom"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import { matchRoutes, renderRoutes } from "react-router-config"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import { Router } from "react-router-dom"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import { Switch } from "react-router"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import { Provider } from "react-redux"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import store from "./store"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import routes from "./routes"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import MainLayout from "./components/mainLayout/MainLayout"; // eslint-disable-line no-unused-vars
import createHistory from "history/createBrowserHistory";
let history = createHistory();
const App = document.getElementById("app");
export default App;
ReactDOM.render(
<Provider store={store}>
<MainLayout>
<Router history= {history}>
<Switch>
{renderRoutes(routes)}
</Switch>
</Router>
</MainLayout>
</Provider>,
App);
SO what i need is I have to route from the header to another component where this component and path is given in a router file
router.js
import Home from "../containers/Home";
import About from "../containers/About";
import CreateUser from "../containers/CreateUser";
import Layout from "../containers/Layout";
const routes = [
{ path: "/",
exact: true,
component: Layout
},
{ path: "/home",
exact: true,
component: Home
},
{
path:"/About",
exact: true,
component: About
},
{
path:"/createUser",
exact: true,
component: CreateUser
}
];
export default routes;
I got an error like push of undefined , when i tried to route from header. Am I missing something is there any change that i should do here.
Thanks in advance.
