[javascript] react router v^4.0.0 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'location' of undefined

I've been having some trouble with react router (i'm using version^4.0.0).

this is my index.js

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import App from './App';
import './index.css';
import { Router, Route, Link, browserHistory } from 'react-router';


ReactDOM.render(
  <Router history={browserHistory} >
    <Route path="/" component={App} />

  </Router>,
  document.getElementById('root')
);

the App.js is just anything. i'm posting the basic one here, cause it's not the problem (i believe)

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import logo from './logo.svg';
import './App.css';

class App extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div className="App">
        <div className="App-header">
          <img src={logo} className="App-logo" alt="logo" />
          <h2>Welcome to React</h2>
        </div>
        <p className="App-intro">
          To get started, edit <code>src/App.js</code> and save to reload.
        </p>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

export default App;

and this is what happens when i check the console log

Router.js:43 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'location' of undefined

    at ReactCompositeComponentWrapper.mountComponent (ReactCompositeComponent.js:258)
    at Object.mountComponent (ReactReconciler.js:46)

oh, and this is the package.json just in case

{
  "name": "teste2",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "private": true,
  "dependencies": {
    "react": "^15.4.2",
    "react-dom": "^15.4.2",
    "react-router": "^4.0.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "react-scripts": "0.9.5"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "start": "react-scripts start",
    "build": "react-scripts build",
    "test": "react-scripts test --env=jsdom",
    "eject": "react-scripts eject"
  }
}

i've been checking this on other places, but i didn't find a way to solve it.

Thank you guys very much for your patience and help!!

This question is related to javascript json reactjs react-router

The answer is


Replace

import { Router, Route, Link, browserHistory } from 'react-router';

With

import { BrowserRouter as Router, Route } from 'react-router-dom';

It will start working. It is because react-router-dom exports BrowserRouter


so if you need want use this code )

import { useRoutes } from "./routes";

import { BrowserRouter as Router } from "react-router-dom";

export const App = () => {

const routes = useRoutes(true);

  return (

    <Router>

      <div className="container">{routes}</div>

    </Router>

  );

};

// ./routes.js 

import { Switch, Route, Redirect } from "react-router-dom";

export const useRoutes = (isAuthenticated) => {
  if (isAuthenticated) {
    return (
      <Switch>
        <Route path="/links" exact>
          <LinksPage />
        </Route>
        <Route path="/create" exact>
          <CreatePage />
        </Route>
        <Route path="/detail/:id">
          <DetailPage />
        </Route>
        <Redirect path="/create" />
      </Switch>
    );
  }
  return (
    <Switch>
      <Route path={"/"} exact>
        <AuthPage />
      </Route>
      <Redirect path={"/"} />
    </Switch>
  );
};

I've tried everything suggested here but didn't work for me. So in case I can help anyone with a similar issue, every single tutorial I've checked is not updated to work with version 4.

Here is what I've done to make it work

import React from 'react';
import App from './App';

import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import {
    HashRouter,
    Route
} from 'react-router-dom';


 ReactDOM.render((
        <HashRouter>
            <div>
                <Route path="/" render={()=><App items={temasArray}/>}/>
            </div>
        </HashRouter >
    ), document.getElementById('root'));

That's the only way I have managed to make it work without any errors or warnings.

In case you want to pass props to your component for me the easiest way is this one:

 <Route path="/" render={()=><App items={temasArray}/>}/>
