Topic: Using navigation components in a react-redux application with ConnectedRouter
Allgeier BSH free asked 5 years ago
Hey Folks,
I just bought the mdb-react-pro bundle and now I want to use the SideNav.
I have a react-redux application with an already implemented connected-react-router ( "react-router": "^4.4.0-beta.8", "connected-react-router": "^6.3.2") which is working fine.
- Can i use the navigation components without integrated router? or
- Is it possible to use the connected-react-router instead of react-router-dom?
When i use the provided Example: SideNav iam getting the following error:
browser.js:38 Uncaught Invariant Violation: You should not use <Route> or withRouter() outside a <Router>
which is to be expected as i now have a react-dom-router in a connected-react-router.
Sincerely yours Denis

Ok, I think I found the cause - please check how the root index.js file looks like - make sure that you import stylesheets before import statement of the root App component:
import "mdbreact/dist/css/mdb.css";
import "@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/css/all.min.css";
import "bootstrap-css-only/css/bootstrap.min.css";
import App from "./App";

Well, it's really weird - and I can't reproduce the problem.
Regarding .side-slide-enter-done
class - you have mentioned that the transition defined within it is not applied - could you check in the developer tools which class is overwriting it?

I used your script, reinstalled my packages, removed my custom css, upgraded to mdbreact version 4.13.0, tried it in different browsers, still nothing.
i added my package.json, maybe there is a conflict with a specific package?

Hi Denis,
please try out this snippet, for me, everything works fine, just like you've descibed:
import React from "react";
import { BrowserRouter as Router } from "react-router-dom";
import { MDBInput, MDBNavbar, MDBNavbarNav, MDBIcon, MDBSideNavItem, MDBSideNavCat, MDBSideNavNav, MDBSideNav, MDBContainer } from "mdbreact";
class DoubleNavigationPage extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
toggleStateA: false,
breakWidth: 991,
};
}
handleToggleClickA = () => {
this.setState({ toggleStateA: !this.state.toggleStateA })
}
render() {
return (

Hey,
Try to replace it with showOverlay={false}
Thanks.
I am using "version": "4.12.0". I am trying to achive a responsive Sidenavigation: visible 991px and above (working), not visible 991px and below(working). Toggle able below 991px per button in topnavigation (not working).
When i press the togglebutton, only the gray overlay is showing.
After toggling the sidenavigation has the following classes:
side-nav wide sn-bg-1 side-slide-enter-done
side-nav{
...
transform: translateX(-100%);
}
and
.side-slide-enter-done {
opacity: 1;
transform: translateX(0);
}
but the transform: translateX(0); is not applied, resulting in a not visible sidenavigation.
Yours Denis

Hi @Allgeier,
please specify what effect do you want to achieve. Also, provide me with the information about mdbreact version which you use.
I can't reproduce the problem - for me, everything works fine. Also, I've noticed that you are passing String to the showOverlay
property. It expects a boolean as an argument. Try to replace it with showOverlay={false}
Best, Ania

Hi,
Thank you very much, the navigation is properly rendering now (sidenav and topnav). I just have one minor issue:
Using the toggle Button does not work correctly. Only the gray overlay is showing. I think the transform css rule is not applied properly.
import React, {Component} from 'react';
import { MDBBtn, MDBCollapse, MDBIcon, MDBNavbar, MDBNavbarBrand, MDBNavbarNav, MDBNavbarToggler, MDBNavItem, MDBSideNav, MDBSideNavCat, MDBSideNavNav, } from 'mdbreact';
import APSSideNavLink from './APSSideNavLink';
class Navigation extends Component { state = { collapse: false, sideNavLeft: true, };
onClick = () => { this.setState({ collapse: !this.state.collapse, }); };
sidenavToggle = sidenavId => () => {
const sidenavNr = sideNav${sidenavId}
;
this.setState({
[sidenavNr]: !this.state[sidenavNr]
});
console.log(sidenavNr, this.state[sidenavNr]);
};

Hi there,
The issue is caused specifically by MDBSideNavLink
component - because we internally use the Link component from react router. You can bypass the problem, by creating your customized MDBSideNavLink
component. Just paste in this code and replace import from the package with import from the file:
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { MDBWaves } from 'mdbreact';
class customLink extends Component {
state = {
cursorPos: {}
}
handleClick = e => {
if (!this.props.disabled) {
e.stopPropagation();
let cursorPos = {
top: e.clientY,
left: e.clientX,
time: Date.now()
};
this.setState({ cursorPos: cursorPos });
}
};
render() {
const {
children,
disabled,
} = this.props;
const { cursorPos } = this.state;
return (
<li
className='nav-item Ripple-parent'
onMouseUp={this.handleClick}
onTouchStart={this.handleClick}
role="link"
>
<a>
{children}
</a>
{!disabled && <MDBWaves cursorPos={cursorPos} />}
</li>
);
}
}
export default customLink;
