Redirect to third party url using react-router-dom


I'm very much aware of the react-router-dom I want to do a conditional rendering of the component. If use is not logged in redirect him to some third party URL

for example, the below code looks neat and works fine

<Route exact path="/home" render={() => (
  isLoggedIn() ? (
    <Redirect to="/front"/>
  ) : (
   <Home />
  )
)}/>

Let's say in the above example if I want to redirect to https://www.google.com how can I do it?

if I write

 <Redirect to="https://www.google.com"> it gives me error. 

How can I redirect to a third party website?


Solution

  • You can use a tag for external urls,

    <a href='https://domain.extension/external-without-params'>external</a>
    

    but also you can provide component like this:

    <Route path='/external' component={() => { window.location = 'https://domain.extension/external-without-params'; return null;} }/>
