In your ArticleCard, you have to create a Link that will route to your full Article. This link will include the id of the article you are trying to render (ex. articles/${article._id})
By writing the Route path of the component Article as articles/:id, this will allow us to catch that id when Article is rendered (accessible via this.props.match.params.id)
Then, assuming that id is used to fetch the article from some other API, a good place to call that would be the componentDidMount of your Article component.
Here is a small example which may help you out:
import React from 'react'
import {
BrowserRouter as Router,
Route,
Link,
Switch
} from 'react-router-dom'
const ParamsExample = () => (
<Router>
<Switch>
<Route exact path="/" component={ArticleList} />
<Route path="/articles/:id" component={Article} />
</Switch>
</Router>
)
const article = {
_id: 1,
title: 'First Article'
};
const ArticleList = () => (
<div>
<ArticleCard key={article._id} article={article} />
</div>
);
const ArticleCard = ({ article }) => (
<div>
<h2>{article.title}</h2>
<Link to={`/articles/${article._id}`}>SEE MORE</Link>
</div>
);
class Article extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {
console.log('Fetch API here: ', this.props.match.params.id);
}
render() {
return (
<div>
{`Fetching...${this.props.match.params.id}`}
</div>
);
}
}
export default ParamsExample
/articles/article-titlewhich will route to anArticlecomponent that will render the contents ofarticle-title? (wherearticle-titleis a dynamic string)article-titleas a query?<Link to="/article1">Article1</Link>and<Route path="/:id" component={articleDetail}/>
