bdux-react-router v18.0.4

Bdux React Router

Want to achieve

• Record and travel back in the history of URL changes with bdux-timetravel.
• Utilise routing library react-router.

Installation

To install as an npm package:

npm install --save bdux-react-router

Usage

import React from 'react'
import { Router, Route, createLocationHistory } from 'bdux-react-router'
import { LocationAction, LocationStore } from 'bdux-react-router'
import { createUseBdux } from 'bdux'

const useBdux = createUseBdux({
  location: LocationStore
}, [
  // start listening to browser history.
  LocationAction.listen
])

function App(props) {
  const { state } = useBdux(props)
  const { location } = state

  return (
    <Router history={createLocationHistory(location)}>
      <Route
        component={Page}
        path="/path"
      />
    </Router>
  )
}

export default React.memo(App)

Browser history changes are captured in LocationAction to LocationStore then into Router. The router component itself does not listen to browser history directly. This data flow ensures routing can be recorded and replayed by middleware.

Link

Link component is a convenient way to create a simple anchor element to update browser history through LocationAction without reloading the entire page.

<Link to="/path">Text</Link>

For more complex scenarios, create components to work with LocationAction.push or LocationAction.replace. Underneath these two functions use library history. Refer to their documentation about location for details.

import React, { useCallback } from 'react'
import LocationAction from 'bdux-react-router'
import { useBdux } from 'bdux'

function Button(props) {
  const { dispatch } = useBdux(props)

  const handleClick = useCallback(() => {
    dispatch(LocationAction.push({
      pathname: '/path'
    }))
  }, [])

  return (
    <button onClick={handleClick} />
  )
}

export default React.memo(Button)
