How to open a link via "router.push" in a new tab using Nextjs router from next/navigation

Question

I am developing a Nextjs app and would want to direct user to another link using router.push but I do not know how to open the link in new tab.

My code is like this right now:

import { useRouter } from "next/navigation";

const router = useRouter();

 <Button
          onClick={() => {
            router.push(`${mylink}`);
          }}
        >
          Order
</Button>

Answer 1

What router.push does is a redirection to the route you defined. Here what you want is to open a new tab on a different link. You can use NextJS Link and set the target as _blank

import Link from "next/link";

<Link href={mylink} target="_blank">Order</Link>

If you want a button you can do it like this

<Link href={mylink} target="_blank">
 <Button>Order</Button>
</Link>
