Use Routing

Toy react hooks hash router for learning react hooks.

Do not use for anything real!

How to define routes.

Define your routes using an object where the keys are the route name and the path is a string that defines the path parts and parameters: "/blah/blah_id=string/asdf?qwer=number"

import {useRouter} from './useRouting';

function App(props) {
  return useRouter(
    <SubApp />,
    {
      thing: '/thing',
      other: '/other/other_id=number',
      yet_another: '/other?thing=42',
      hello_world: '/hello/world',
      blah: '/blah/blah_id=string/asdf?qwer=number'
    }
  );
}

Getting current route and navigation.

To get the current route and also navigate:

import {useRouting} from './useRouting';

function SubApp(props) {
  const currentRoute = useRouting();
  if (currentRoute === null) {
    return null;
  }
  return (
    <div className="App">
      <div id="path">{currentRoute.name}</div>
      <div id="params">{JSON.stringify(currentRoute.state, null, 2)}</div>
      <button id="back" onClick={(e) => currentRoute.back()}>Back</button>
      <button id="thing" onClick={(e) => currentRoute.navigate('thing')}>
        thing
      </button>
      <button id="other" onClick={(e) => currentRoute.navigate('other', {'other_id': 123})}>
        other
      </button>
      <button id="forward" onClick={(e) => currentRoute.forward()}>
        Forward
      </button>
    </div>
  );
}
