‘useNavigate’ is a hook provided by React Router, a popular library used for handling navigation in React applications. This hook allows you to programmatically navigate between different routes in your application.
How to Use useNavigate
1) Import the Hook: First, you need to import useNavigate from the react-router-dom package.
2) Create a Navigate Function: By calling useNavigate, you get a function that you can use to navigate to a different route.
3) Use the Function: Use this function whenever you want to change the route.
Example
In the provided example, we are using useNavigate to navigate to a specific application edit page after successfully creating or updating data.
import { useNavigate } from ‘react-router-dom’;
const navigate = useNavigate();
onSuccess: (data) => {
let applicationId = data.data.apps.find(a => a.type === ‘string’).id;
}
Detailed Explanation
● Import the Hook: The useNavigate hook is imported from the react-router-dom package.
● Create the Navigate Function: const navigate = useNavigate(); creates a function called navigate that can be used to change the route.
● Use the Function in onSuccess: In the onSuccess callback, we find the apps ID where the type is ‘string’. Then, we use the navigate function to go to the edit page for that apps.
