Update dynamic param in URL React Router 5-CodePudding

I'm looking for a way to reliably update a dynamic param in a URL with React Router 5.

My webpage has a global select component that allows to switch between different organizations and the URL can have multiple IDs in it.

The URL may look something like this https://www.baseurl.com/organization/:orgId/site/:siteId/user/:userId

So I need to change the :orgId param when the select value changes. Does React Router 5 provide a good way to do that (useLocation and useParams doesn't seem to have an API for that) or should I manipulate the URL string manually in such case?

You may be able to use the useParams hook and combine it with the generatePath utility function.

Example:

import { generatePath, useParams } from 'react-router-dom';

...

const params = useParams(); // { orgId, siteId, userId }

...

const path = generatePath(
  "/organization/:orgId/site/:siteId/user/:userId",
  {
    ...params,       // <-- shallow copy in the existing param values
    orgId: newOrgId, // <-- override the specific param values from state/etc
  },
);

Use the computed path variable in history.replace or as a Link component target.

useNavigate provides a way to somehow do it but I think you have to create a function that manually handles the URL params.

// import useNavigate
import {useNavigate} from 'react-router-dom';

export default function App() {
  const navigate = useNavigate();

  const handleClick = () => {
    // navigate programmatically
    navigate({pathname: '/about', search: '?query=abc&page=25'});
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={handleClick}>Navigate to About</button>
    </div>
  );
}
