14 | 14 | Navigate programmatically with useNavigate - redirect users, handle auth |
15 | 15 | flows, and control navigation with replace and scroll options. |
16 | 16 | --- |
17 | 17 |
|
18 | | -Retrieves the method which accepts a path to navigate to and an optional object with the following options: |
| 18 | +The `useNavigate` function provides a function for programmatically navigating to a new route. |
19 | 19 |
|
20 | | -- resolve (_boolean_, default `true`): resolve the path against the current route |
21 | | -- replace (_boolean_, default `false`): replace the history entry |
22 | | -- scroll (_boolean_, default `true`): scroll to top after navigation |
23 | | -- state (_any_, default `undefined`): pass custom state to `location.state` |
| 20 | +## Import |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +```ts |
| 23 | +import { useNavigate } from "@solidjs/router"; |
| 24 | +``` |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +## Type |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +```ts |
| 29 | +interface NavigateOptions<S = unknown> { |
| 30 | + resolve: boolean; |
| 31 | + replace: boolean; |
| 32 | + scroll: boolean; |
| 33 | + state: S; |
| 34 | +} |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +function useNavigate(): ( |
| 37 | + to: string, |
| 38 | + options?: Partial<NavigateOptions> |
| 39 | +) => void; |
| 40 | +function useNavigate(delta: number): void; |
| 41 | +``` |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +## Parameters |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +`useNavigate` takes no arguments. |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +## Return value |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +- **Type:** `(to: string | number, options?: NavigateOptions) => void | (delta: number) => void` |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +Returns a function that accepts two arguments: |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +### `to` |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +- **Type:** `string | number` |
| 56 | +- **Required:** Yes |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +The target destination. |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +- `string`: |
| 61 | + A path to navigate to. |
| 62 | +- `number`: |
| 63 | + A history delta (e.g., `-1` for back, `1` for forward). |
| 64 | + If provided, the `options` argument is ignored. |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +### `options` |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +- **Type:** `NavigateOptions` |
| 69 | +- **Required:** No |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +Configuration object for the navigation. |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +#### `resolve` |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +- **Type:** `boolean` |
| 76 | +- **Default:** `true` |
| 77 | + |
| 78 | +Resolves the path relative to the current route. |
| 79 | +If `false`, the path is resolved against the root (`/`). |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +If `to` is a query-only string (e.g., `?sort=asc`), this defaults to `false` to preserve the current pathname. |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +#### `replace` |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +- **Type**: `boolean` |
| 86 | +- **Default**: `false` |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +Replaces the current history entry instead of adding a new one. |
| 89 | +Used for redirects or state updates to prevent the user from navigating back to the previous state. |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +#### `scroll` |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +- **Type**: `boolean` |
| 94 | +- **Default**: `true` |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +Scrolls the window to the top after navigation. |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +- `true`: |
| 99 | + Scrolls to the top or to the element matching the hash. |
| 100 | +- `false`: |
| 101 | + Maintains the current scroll position (unless a hash matches). |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +#### `state` |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +- **Type**: `any` |
| 106 | +- **Default**: `undefined` |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +Arbitrary state stored in `history.state`. |
| 109 | +This value is accessible via `useLocation().state`. |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +State is serialized using the [structured clone algorithm](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API/Structured_clone_algorithm), which supports most built-in types but not functions or DOM nodes. |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +## Examples |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +### Basic usage |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +```tsx |
| 118 | +import { useNavigate } from "@solidjs/router"; |
| 119 | + |
| 120 | +const navigate = useNavigate(); |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | +navigate("/users/123"); |
| 123 | +``` |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +### With `replace` |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +```tsx |
| 128 | +import { useNavigate } from "@solidjs/router"; |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | +const navigate = useNavigate(); |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +// Redirect (replace history) |
| 133 | +function login() { |
| 134 | + navigate("/dashboard", { replace: true }); |
| 135 | +} |
| 136 | +``` |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +### With `delta` |
| 139 | + |
| 140 | +```tsx |
| 141 | +import { useNavigate } from "@solidjs/router"; |
24 | 142 |
|
25 | | -```js |
26 | 143 | const navigate = useNavigate(); |
27 | 144 |
|
28 | | -if (unauthorized) { |
29 | | - navigate("/login", { replace: true }); |
| 145 | +// Go back one page |
| 146 | +function goBack() { |
| 147 | + navigate(-1); |
30 | 148 | } |
31 | 149 | ``` |
32 | 150 |
|
33 | | -If you are inside of a query, action or cache (deprecated) function you will instead want to use [redirect](/solid-router/reference/response-helpers/redirect) or [reload](/solid-router/reference/response-helpers/reload). |
| 151 | +### With `state` |
| 152 | + |
| 153 | +```tsx |
| 154 | +import { useNavigate } from "@solidjs/router"; |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | +const navigate = useNavigate(); |
| 157 | + |
| 158 | +// Pass custom state |
| 159 | +navigate("/checkout", { |
| 160 | + state: { from: "cart", total: 100 }, |
| 161 | +}); |
| 162 | +``` |
