What is the difference between React router.push and router.replace?
921
replace and history. push? The difference is that, in case of push - a new record is added in the history, while for replace it deletes the last record and puts the new one.
push() Method. history. push() is another approach where we make use of the history props React Router provides while rendering a component. In other words, this works when the component is being rendered by React Router, bypassing the component as a Component prop to a Route.
The main difference between the two is the way they store the URL and communicate with your web server. A <BrowserRouter> uses regular URL paths. These are generally the best-looking URLs, but they require your server to be configured correctly.
On the basis of the part of URL that the router will use to track the content that the user is trying to view, React Router provides three different kinds of routers: Memory Router. Browser Router. Hash Router.
The router history works like a stack of routes. When you use the router.replace, you're overwritting the top of the the stack. When using the router.push, it adds a new route to the top of the stack.
The router history allows you to go back to the last page. For example, when the user navigates to a invalid route, you can use the router.replace to prevent the user to navigate back to the invalid route.
