How to get current route in react-router 2.0.0-rc5
I have a router like below:
<Router history={hashHistory}>
<Route path="/" component={App}>
<IndexRoute component={Index}/>
<Route path="login" component={Login}/>
</Route>
</Router>
Here's what I want to achieve :
- Redirect user to
/login
if not logged in - If user tried to access
/login
when they are already logged in, redirect them to root/
so now I'm trying to check user's state in App
's componentDidMount
, then do something like:
if (!user.isLoggedIn) {
this.context.router.push('login')
} else if(currentRoute == 'login') {
this.context.router.push('/')
}
The problem here is I can't find the API to get current route.
I found this closed issue suggested using Router.ActiveState mixin and route handlers, but it looks like these two solutions are now deprecated.
After reading some more document, I found the solution:
https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router/blob/master/packages/react-router/docs/api/location.md
I just need to access the injected property location
of the instance of the component like:
var currentLocation = this.props.location.pathname
You can get the current route using
const currentRoute = this.props.routes[this.props.routes.length - 1];
...which gives you access to the props from the lowest-level active <Route ...>
component.
Given...
<Route path="childpath" component={ChildComponent} />
currentRoute.path
returns 'childpath'
and currentRoute.component
returns function _class() { ... }
.
If you use the history,then Router put everything into the location from the history,such as:
this.props.location.pathname;
this.props.location.query;
get it?
As of version 3.0.0, you can get the current route by calling:
this.context.router.location.pathname
Sample code is below:
var NavLink = React.createClass({
contextTypes: {
router: React.PropTypes.object
},
render() {
return (
<Link {...this.props}></Link>
);
}
});
