I am working on web application using React and bootstrap. When it comes to applying button onClick, it takes me hard time to let my page being redirect to another. if after a href , I cannot go the another page.

So would you please tell me is there any need for using react-navigation or other to navigate the page using Button onClick ?

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Button, Card, CardBody, CardGroup, Col, Container, Input, InputGroup, InputGroupAddon, InputGroupText, Row, NavLink  } from 'reactstrap';

class LoginLayout extends Component {

  render() {
    return (
 <div className="app flex-row align-items-center">
        <Container>
     ...
                    <Row>
                      <Col xs="6">                      
                        <Button color="primary" className="px-4">
                            Login
                         </Button>
                      </Col>
                      <Col xs="6" className="text-right">
                        <Button color="link" className="px-0">Forgot password?</Button>
                      </Col>
                    </Row>
               ...
        </Container>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

update:

React Router v5 with hooks:

import React from 'react';
import { useHistory } from "react-router-dom";
function LoginLayout() {

  const history = useHistory();

  const routeChange = () =>{ 
    let path = `newPath`; 
    history.push(path);
  }

  return (
      <div className="app flex-row align-items-center">
        <Container>
          ...
          <Row>
            <Col xs="6">                      
              <Button color="primary" className="px-4"
                onClick={routeChange}
                  >
                  Login
                </Button>
            </Col>
            <Col xs="6" className="text-right">
              <Button color="link" className="px-0">Forgot password?</Button>
            </Col>
          </Row>
          ...
        </Container>
      </div>
  );
}
export default LoginLayout;

with React Router v5:

import { useHistory } from 'react-router-dom';
import { Button, Card, CardBody, CardGroup, Col, Container, Input, InputGroup, InputGroupAddon, InputGroupText, Row, NavLink  } from 'reactstrap';

class LoginLayout extends Component {

  routeChange=()=> {
    let path = `newPath`;
    let history = useHistory();
    history.push(path);
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div className="app flex-row align-items-center">
        <Container>
          ...
          <Row>
            <Col xs="6">                      
              <Button color="primary" className="px-4"
                onClick={this.routeChange}
                  >
                  Login
                </Button>
            </Col>
            <Col xs="6" className="text-right">
              <Button color="link" className="px-0">Forgot password?</Button>
            </Col>
          </Row>
          ...
        </Container>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

export default LoginLayout;

with React Router v4:

import { withRouter } from 'react-router-dom';
import { Button, Card, CardBody, CardGroup, Col, Container, Input, InputGroup, InputGroupAddon, InputGroupText, Row, NavLink  } from 'reactstrap';

class LoginLayout extends Component {
  constuctor() {
    this.routeChange = this.routeChange.bind(this);
  }

  routeChange() {
    let path = `newPath`;
    this.props.history.push(path);
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div className="app flex-row align-items-center">
        <Container>
          ...
          <Row>
            <Col xs="6">                      
              <Button color="primary" className="px-4"
                onClick={this.routeChange}
                  >
                  Login
                </Button>
            </Col>
            <Col xs="6" className="text-right">
              <Button color="link" className="px-0">Forgot password?</Button>
            </Col>
          </Row>
          ...
        </Container>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

export default withRouter(LoginLayout);
