react-browser-pathname

A window location wrapper for reading the current pathname.

Installation

Using npm:

$ npm install --save react-browser-pathname

Usage

Towards the top of your app, add the BrowserPathname Provider.

import BrowserPathname from `react-browser-pathname`;
 
const AppProviders = () => (
    <BrowserPathname>
        <App />
    </BrowserPathname>
);

Within your any ancestor component use the hooks, e.g.:

import { useBrowserPathname, usePushPath, useReplacePath } from 'react-browser-pathname';
 
const MyComponent = () => {
    const pathname = useBrowserPathname();
    const pushPath = usePushPath();
    const replacePath = useReplacePath();
 
    return (
        <div>
            <pre>{ pathname }</pre>
            <button onClick={() => pushPath('/awesome')}>Push path to navigate</button>
            <button onClick={() => replacePath('/awesomer')}>Replace path to navigate</button>
        </div>
    );
};
