React Router - Ignore / Redirect to subfolder












1















Is it possible to ignore a specific URL in the react router?



I have an app for a service desk app in a subdir which I can not reach, once I have entered the react app.



<Route
exact
path="/"
component={ViewHome}
/>

<Route
path="/about"
component={ViewAbout}
/>

<Route
path="/help"
// Ignore the React App and forward this request to the server.
/>


As Marvin stated in his answer, this could be a server config problem. Here is the content of the .htaccess rewrite.



RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^(help)($|/) - [L]

RewriteRule ^index.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]


Any ideas?

          I don't know if I understand your question, but this sounds like a server configuration issue.



          For example, I use Nginx on my server to configure the router.
          The usual behavior of your browser is to search for a subdirectory when you do /something.



          But if you configure it in a way that your servers keeps looking at your index file it should be fine.



          What works for me in my Nginx config:



          location / {
          try_files $uri /index.html;
          }

          • You seem to be right. Since Apache is running on my machine, I have to search the htaccess. I'll update the question.
