I have a Smart component class page PhoneDirectory.js, where I have used BrowserRouter and Route to route to the ShowSubscribers page("/") and AddSubscribers page ("/add"). My requirement is to redirect to the ShowSubscribers page("/") upon form submission on the AddSubscribers page but not understand how to implement that. I tried using this.props.history.push("/") but it isn't working. I am new to React, can anyone please help?
import React from 'react';
import AddSubscriber from './AddSubscriber';
import ShowSubscribers from './ShowSubscribers';
import {BrowserRouter , Route, Routes} from 'react-router-dom';
export default class PhoneDirectory extends React.Component{
constructor(){
super();
this.state = {[]};
}
addSubscribers = (subscribers) =>{...}
deleteSubscribers = (subscriberId) =>{...}
render() {
return (
<BrowserRouter>
<Routes>
<Route exact path='/' element={<ShowSubscribers deleteSubscribers={this.deleteSubscribers} subscribersList={this.state.subscribersList}/>}/>
<Route exact path='/add' element={<AddSubscriber addSubscribers={this.addSubscribers}/>}/>
</Routes>
</BrowserRouter>
)
}
}
Dumb component AddSubscriber page
import React from 'react';
import Header from './Header';
import './AddSubscriber.css';
import {Link} from "react-router-dom";
export default class AddSubscriber extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
id: 0,
name:'',
phone:''
}
}
onChangeHandler = (event) =>{...}
onFormSubmitted = (event) =>{
event.preventDefault();
this.props.addSubscribers(this.state);
this.setState({id:0, name:"", phone:''});
// Need logic to redirect to "/" i.e., ShowSubscribers page
}
render() {
return (<div>
<Header heading="Add Subscriber"/>
<div className="component-body-container">
<Link to="/">
<button className="custom-btn">Back</button>
</Link>
<form className="subscriber-form" onSubmit={this.onFormSubmitted.bind(this)}>
...............
<button type="submit" className="custom-btn add-btn">Add</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>)}
}
I tried this.props.history.push("/"), but it didn't worked.
react-router-dom v6 support only hooks version i suggest since you use class component to downgrade the version of react-router-dom in package.json.
"dependencies": {
...
"react-router-dom": "5.2.1",
},Now you need to run : npm install or yarn install Your Route component will look like that
import React from 'react';
import AddSubscriber from './AddSubscriber';
import ShowSubscribers from './ShowSubscribers';
import { Route, Switch, BrowserRouter as Router } from 'react-router-dom';
export default class PhoneDirectory extends React.Component{
constructor(){
super();
this.state = {[]};
}
addSubscribers = (subscribers) =>{...}
deleteSubscribers = (subscriberId) =>{...}
render() {
return (
<Router>
<Switch>
<Route exact path='/'>
<ShowSubscribers {...your props goes here}/>
</Route>
<Route exact path='/add'>
<AddSubscriber {...your props goes here}/>
</Route>
</Switch>
</Router>
)
}
}Now you are able to call this.props.history.push
import React from 'react';
import Header from './Header';
import './AddSubscriber.css';
export default class AddSubscriber extends React.Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
id: 0,
name:'',
phone:''
}
}
onChangeHandler = (event) =>{...}
onFormSubmitted = (event) =>{
event.preventDefault();
this.props.addSubscribers(this.state);
this.setState({id:0, name:"", phone:''});
// Need logic to redirect to "/" i.e., ShowSubscribers page
}
render() {
return (<div>
<Header heading="Add Subscriber"/>
<div className="component-body-container">
<button className="custom-btn" onClick={()=>this.props.history.push('/')} >Back</button>
<form className="subscriber-form" onSubmit={this.onFormSubmitted.bind(this)}>
...............
<button type="submit" className="custom-btn add-btn">Add</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>)}
}I think that you need to wrap your AddSubscriber page with withRouter HOC
class AddSubscriber extends React.Component{
...some-code....
}
export default withRouter(AddSubscriber)
you need navigation logic (this.props.history.push("/"))
to be located a addScubscribers page.
(you have it at "homepage" instead)
