Navigating programmatically within a React application using the React Router library is quite handy when you need to redirect users based on actions or conditions in your app. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this:
-
Using the useHistory Hook: The useHistory hook from react-router-dom is commonly used for navigation. It provides access to the history instance, which can be used to navigate.
-
Using the useNavigate Hook: In the newer versions of React Router, useNavigate replaces useHistory.
-
Using the withRouter Higher-Order Component: If you're working with class components, you can use the with Router HOC to gain access to the history object.
-
Using the Navigate Component: For conditional navigation in functional components, you can use the Navigate component from react-router-dom.
