How to redirect after success from ajax call using React-router-component?

Question

I am building a application using Facebook flux architecture of React JS. I have build the basic part of app where I have a login form. I am fetching the the result from node server to validate user at the store, I am getting the result from server, Now I got stuck that how can I redirect the user to home page after success.

I have read about the react router component and I am able to redirect at the client side but not able to redirect at the time of fetching result from ajax in Store. Please help me.

You need to use the transitionTo function from the Navigation mixin: http://git.io/NmYH. It would be something like this:

// I don't know implementation details of the store,
// but let's assume it has `login` function that fetches
// user id from backend and then calls a callback with 
// this received id
var Store = require('my_store');
var Router = require('react-router');

var MyComponent = React.createClass({
  mixins: [Router.Navigation],

  onClick: function() {
    var self = this;
    Store.login(function(userId){
      self.transitionTo('dashboard', {id: userId});
    });
  },

  render: function() {
    return: <button onClick={this.onClick}>Get user id</button>;
  }
});
