Nesting routes and dynamically routing in React-router v4
I have following routing configuration:
return (<div>
<Router>
<div>
<Route path='/login' component={LoginPage}/>
<EnsureLoggedInContainer>
<Route path='/abc' component={abc} />
</EnsureLoggedInContainer>
</div>
</Router>
</div>
);
The EnsureLoggedInContainer is:
import React from 'react';
import { connect } from "react-redux";
class EnsureLoggedInContainer extends React.Component
{
componentDidMount() {
if ( !this.props.isLoggedIn )
{
// this.props.history.push('/login');
this.context.router.push('/contact');
}
}
render() {
// console.log(this.props);
if ( this.props.isLoggedIn )
{
return this.props.children;
}
else
{
return null;
}
}
}
const mapStateToProps = (state,ownProps) => {
return{
isLoggedIn : state.isLoggedIn,
// currentURL : this.props
}
}
export default connect(mapStateToProps)(EnsureLoggedInContainer);
But, the history push: this.props.history.push('/login');
isn't working. Here history is not present.
If I am using a configuration like this:
<Route component={EnsureLoggedInContainer}>
<Route path='/myjs' component={MyjsPage} />
</Route>
I am getting issue like:
Warning: You should not use <Route component> and <Route children> in the same route; <Route children> will be ignored
What's the best way of authentication in reactjs?
From what I can see of your React Router Design, you seem to be using React router version 4
In that case you can specify the route in the Component Itself, and make use of withRouter to do a dynamic redirect like
return (<div>
<Router>
<div>
<Route path='/login' component={LoginPage}/>
<EnsureLoggedInContainer/>
</div>
</Router>
</div>
);
and
import React from 'react';
import { connect } from "react-redux";
import {withRouter} from "react-router";
class EnsureLoggedInContainer extends React.Component
{
componentDidMount() {
if ( !this.props.isLoggedIn )
{
this.props.history.push('/login');
}
}
render() {
// console.log(this.props);
if ( this.props.isLoggedIn )
{
return <Route path='/abc' component={abc} />
}
else
{
return null;
}
}
}
const mapStateToProps = (state,ownProps) => {
return{
isLoggedIn : state.isLoggedIn,
// currentURL : this.props
}
}
export default connect(mapStateToProps)(withRouter(EnsureLoggedInContainer));
