# Use withRouter To Pass Down React-Router History
|
||||
|
||||
A standard way to navigate with
|
||||
[react-router](https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router) besides using
|
||||
the `Link` component is to call `history.push`. Components that are directly
|
||||
rendered by a `Route` will have access to this and other router props. But
|
||||
what about other components?
|
||||
|
||||
The `withRouter` HOC gives us direct access to a `history` prop.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
import React from 'react';
|
||||
import { withRouter } from 'react-router';
|
||||
|
||||
const SpecialButton = withRouter(({ history, path, text }) => {
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<Button
|
||||
onClick={() => { history.push(path); }}
|
||||
>
|
||||
{text}
|
||||
</Button>
|
||||
)
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This special button component is given the `history` prop via the
|
||||
`withRouter` HOC along with any props that we directly pass it. With that
|
||||
we are able to directly invoke a route change using `history.push()`.
