Pass props in Link react-router

This line is missing path:

<Route name="ideas" handler={CreateIdeaView} />

Should be:

<Route name="ideas" path="/:testvalue" handler={CreateIdeaView} />

Given the following Link (outdated v1):

<Link to="ideas" params={{ testvalue: "hello" }}>Create Idea</Link>

Up to date as of v4/v5:

const backUrl = '/some/other/value'
// this.props.testvalue === "hello"

// Using query
<Link to={{pathname: `/${this.props.testvalue}`, query: {backUrl}}} />

// Using search
<Link to={{pathname: `/${this.props.testvalue}`, search: `?backUrl=${backUrl}`} />
<Link to={`/${this.props.testvalue}?backUrl=${backUrl}`} />

and in the withRouter(CreateIdeaView) components render(), out dated usage of withRouter higher order component:

console.log(this.props.match.params.testvalue, this.props.location.query.backurl)
// output
hello /some/other/value

And in a functional components using the useParams and useLocation hooks:

const CreatedIdeaView = () => {
    const { testvalue } = useParams();
    const { query, search } = useLocation(); 
    console.log(testvalue, query.backUrl, new URLSearchParams(search).get('backUrl'))
    return <span>{testvalue} {backurl}</span>    
}

From the link that you posted on the docs, towards the bottom of the page:

Given a route like <Route name="user" path="/users/:userId"/>



Updated code example with some stubbed query examples:

// import React, {Component, Props, ReactDOM} from 'react';
// import {Route, Switch} from 'react-router'; etc etc
// this snippet has it all attached to window since its in browser
const {
  BrowserRouter,
  Switch,
  Route,
  Link,
  NavLink
} = ReactRouterDOM;

class World extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    console.dir(props);      
    this.state = {
      fromIdeas: props.match.params.WORLD || 'unknown'
    }
  }
  render() {
    const { match, location} = this.props;
    return (
      <React.Fragment>
        <h2>{this.state.fromIdeas}</h2>
        <span>thing: 
          {location.query 
            && location.query.thing}
        </span><br/>
        <span>another1: 
        {location.query 
          && location.query.another1 
          || 'none for 2 or 3'}

#updates:

See: https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router/blob/0c6d51cd6639aff8a84b11d89e27887b3558ed8a/upgrade-guides/v2.0.0.md#link-to-onenter-and-isactive-use-location-descriptors

From the upgrade guide from 1.x to 2.x:

<Link to>, onEnter, and isActive use location descriptors

<Link to> can now take a location descriptor in addition to strings. The query and state props are deprecated.

// v1.0.x

<Link to="/foo" query={{ the: 'query' }}/>

// v2.0.0

<Link to={{ pathname: '/foo', query: { the: 'query' } }}/>

// Still valid in 2.x

<Link to="/foo"/>

Likewise, redirecting from an onEnter hook now also uses a location descriptor.

// v1.0.x

(nextState, replaceState) => replaceState(null, '/foo')
(nextState, replaceState) => replaceState(null, '/foo', { the: 'query' })

// v2.0.0

(nextState, replace) => replace('/foo')
(nextState, replace) => replace({ pathname: '/foo', query: { the: 'query' } })

For custom link-like components, the same applies for router.isActive, previously history.isActive.

// v1.0.x

history.isActive(pathname, query, indexOnly)

// v2.0.0

router.isActive({ pathname, query }, indexOnly)

#updates for v3 to v4:

  • https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router/pull/3397

  • https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router/pull/3288

The interface is basically still the same as v2, best to look at the CHANGES.md for react-router, as that is where the updates are.

there is a way you can pass more than one parameter. You can pass "to" as object instead of string.

// your route setup
<Route path="/category/:catId" component={Category} / >

// your link creation
const newTo = { 
  pathname: "/category/595212758daa6810cbba4104", 
  param1: "Par1" 
};
// link to the "location"
// see (https://reacttraining.com/react-router/web/api/location)
<Link to={newTo}> </Link>

// In your Category Component, you can access the data like this
this.props.match.params.catId // this is 595212758daa6810cbba4104 
this.props.location.param1 // this is Par1

I had the same problem to show an user detail from my application.

You can do this:

<Link to={'/ideas/'+this.props.testvalue }>Create Idea</Link>

or

<Link to="ideas/hello">Create Idea</Link>

and

<Route name="ideas/:value" handler={CreateIdeaView} />

to get this via this.props.match.params.value at your CreateIdeaView class.

You can see this video that helped me a lot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBxMljq9GSE


See this post for reference

The simple is that:

<Link to={{
     pathname: `your/location`,
     state: {send anything from here}
}}

Now you want to access it:

this.props.location.state

as for react-router-dom 4.x.x (https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-router-dom) you can pass params to the component to route to via:

<Route path="/ideas/:value" component ={CreateIdeaView} />

linking via (considering testValue prop is passed to the corresponding component (e.g. the above App component) rendering the link)

<Link to={`/ideas/${ this.props.testValue }`}>Create Idea</Link>

passing props to your component constructor the value param will be available via

props.match.params.value
