How to navigate react page on ternary operators?

Question

I'm trying to navigate to admin page if LoggedIn and admin is true while sending props to /admin but this isn't working. Can you help please?

export default function Auth() {


  function login(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    const data = { email, password };
    axios
      .post("http://localhost:3001/api/Login", data, { withCredentials: true })
      .then((response) => {
      
      if(!!response.data.loggedIn && !!response.data.admin){ return( <Navigate to="/admin"  loggedIn={"response.data.loggedIn"} replace/> )}
     else if(!!response.data.loggedIn && ! !!response.data.admin){ window.location.href = "https://www.dummyweb.com/webmail";}
    else{return(alert("Username or Password is not valid!"))}  
    });
  
  }

  return (
    <div>
    <LogginForm/>
</div>
 )
}

Answer 1

To conditionally render content or redirect then you should use the following:

react-router-dom

Since you are trying to use the useNavigate hook I'll assume you are using react-router-dom v6 and will start there.

Version 6

The Redirect component was removed in react-router-dom v6. Use the Navigate component and also specify the replace prop to do a redirect instead of a normal navigation.

export default function Admin(props) {
  return props.isLoggedIn ? (
    <div>
      <Row className={stylesadmin.root}> 
        <Uploader/>
       <ToastContainer/>  
      </Row>
    </div>
  ) : (
    <Navigate to="/Auth" replace />
  );
}

Version 5

Use the Redirect component to redirect to "/Auth".

export default function Admin(props) {
  return props.isLoggedIn ? (
    <div>
      <Row className={stylesadmin.root}> 
        <Uploader/>
       <ToastContainer/>  
      </Row>
    </div>
  ) : (
    <Redirect to="/Auth" />
  );
}

Update

Using imperative navigation/redirect.

Import the useNavigate (v6) / useHistory (v5) hook and issue imperative redirect.

export default function Auth() {
  const navigate = useNavigate();  // v6
  // const history = useHistory(); // v5

  function login(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    const data = { email, password };

    axios
      .post("http://localhost:3001/api/Login", data, { withCredentials: true })
      .then((response) => {
        if (!!response.data.loggedIn && !!response.data.admin) {
          navigate(
            "/admin",
            {
              replace: true,
              state: { loggedIn: response.data.loggedIn },
            }
          );
          // history.replace(
          //   "/admin",
          //   {
          //     loggedIn: response.data.loggedIn,
          //   }
          // );
        } else if (!!response.data.loggedIn && ! !!response.data.admin) {
          window.location.href = "https://www.dummyweb.com/webmail";
        } else {
          alert("Username or Password is not valid!");
        }  
      });
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <LogginForm/>
    </div>
  );
}

Answer 2

You can use react-router Redirect component

return <>{props.isLoggedIn ?  (<div>
   <Row className={stylesadmin.root}> 
     <Uploader/>
     <ToastContainer/>  
   </Row>
 </div>) : <Redirect to='/Auth'/> }</>
}

Answer 3

you can use either Redirect component or use useHistory hook from react-router-dom
