    Interface Navigator

    A Navigator is a "location changer"; it's how you get to different locations.

    Every history instance conforms to the Navigator interface, but the distinction is useful primarily when it comes to the low-level <Router> API where both the location and a navigator must be provided separately in order to avoid "tearing" that may occur in a suspense-enabled app if the action and/or location were to be read directly from the history instance.

    interface Navigator {
        createHref: (to: To) => string;
        encodeLocation?: (to: To) => Path;
        go: (delta: number) => void;
        push(to: To, state?: any, opts?: NavigateOptions): void;
        replace(to: To, state?: any, opts?: NavigateOptions): void;
    }
    Index

    Properties

    createHref: (to: To) => string

    Type declaration

      • (to: To): string
      • Returns a valid href for the given to value that may be used as the value of an attribute.

        Parameters

        Returns string

    encodeLocation?: (to: To) => Path

    Type declaration

      • (to: To): Path
      • Encode a location the same way window.history would do (no-op for memory history) so we ensure our PUSH/REPLACE navigations for data routers behave the same as POP

        Parameters

        • to: To

          Unencoded path

        Returns Path

    go: (delta: number) => void

    Type declaration

      • (delta: number): void
      • Navigates n entries backward/forward in the history stack relative to the current index. For example, a "back" navigation would use go(-1).

        Parameters

        • delta: number

          The delta in the stack index

        Returns void
