Extending the solution (suggested by Shubham Khatri) for use with React hooks (16.8 onwards):
package.json (always worth updating to latest packages)
{
...
"react": "^16.12.0",
"react-router-dom": "^5.1.2",
...
}
Passing parameters with history push:
import { useHistory } from "react-router-dom";
const FirstPage = props => {
let history = useHistory();
const someEventHandler = event => {
history.push({
pathname: '/secondpage',
search: '?query=abc',
state: { detail: 'some_value' }
});
};
};
export default FirstPage;
Accessing the passed parameter using useLocation from 'react-router-dom':
import { useEffect } from "react";
import { useLocation } from "react-router-dom";
const SecondPage = props => {
const location = useLocation();
useEffect(() => {
console.log(location.pathname); // result: '/secondpage'
console.log(location.search); // result: '?query=abc'
console.log(location.state.detail); // result: 'some_value'
}, [location]);
};
