I two buttons as pictured below. I am navigating users to the registration page using history.push
using this code. I want to pass some sort of data to the Registration
page like if the user is a "volunteer" or "good cause" based on the button click. I know that it is relatively simple but I cannot figure it out. Thanks.
let history = useHistory();
const handleClickRegistration = () => {
history.push({
pathname: '/Registration',
});
};
This is where I am calling the function
type="submit"
variant="contained"
id="volunteer"
className={classes.button}
style={{margin: 8}}
onClick={handleClickRegistration}
>
Register as a Volunteer
</Button>
if you are using the same function on both buttons then use it like
<Button onClick={()=> handleClickRegistration("volunteer")} >Register as a
Volunteer</Button>
<Button onClick={()=> handleClickRegistration("good_cause")} >Register as a
Good Cause</Button>
and in handleClickRegistration function send a state in history.push method
const handleClickRegistration = (userType) => {
history.push({
pathname: '/Registration',
state: { userType: userType }
});
};
which you can get in Registration rotue
