How to combine ReactJs Router Link and material-ui components (like a button)?

Question

I need to find a solution to be able to combine together the functionality of react router with the material ui components.

For instance, I've this scenario: a router and a button. What I tried to do it is to mix them together, and restyle them.

So from a simple link

<Link className={this.getClass(this.props.type)} to={`${url}`} title={name}>{name}</Link>

I tried to create a material ui button as the following

<Link className={this.getClass(this.props.type)} to={`${url}`} title={name}>
  <FlatButton label={name} />
</Link>

but I have the following error and Javascript breaks

invariant.js?4599:38Uncaught Invariant Violation: addComponentAsRefTo(...): Only a ReactOwner can have refs. You might be adding a ref to a component that was not created inside a component's render method, or you have multiple copies of React loaded (details: https://gist.github.com/jimfb/4faa6cbfb1ef476bd105).

Do you have any idea how to manage this situation? Thank you in advance and if you need more information let me know

Answer 1

The way to do in new versions is:

import { Link } from 'react-router-dom';

// ... some code

render(){
    return (
        <Button component={Link} to={'/my_route'}>My button</Button>
    );
}
