React Router: Add entry to history without changing route

Question

Using React Router, what's the best way of pushing a new entry to the history so it updates the URL, but without triggering a new route?

The Navigation.replaceWith() mixin method seems to do the opposite of what I need.

Answer 1

Not really familiar with React-Router's API, but you could use pure javascript to do that.

window.history.pushState({}, '', 'https://stackoverflow.com/new-url-here');
