How to navigate backwards?

[avesus]

How to use standard navigation actions of react-router, i.e. goBack(), replace() etc?

How to use replace is described here. Besides push and replace not other methods are currently supported.

I badly need goBack with great library!

I wonder if this'll work. Modify executeTransition like below. Adds an additional check for a key named method in your transition definition. I feel it could be safe cuz I believe neither history API nor react-router consume a method key in any of their operations.

export const executeTransition = history => transitionData => {
  if (transitionData) {
   // const method = transitionData.replace ? 'replace' : 'push';
   const method = transitionData.method || (transitionData.replace ? 'replace' : 'push');
    history[method](transitionData);
  }
};

Example action:

export default {

  goPrevious() {
    return {
      type: PAGE_PREV,
      payload: {
        page: 23
      },
      meta: {
        transition: (prevState, nextState, action) => ({ method: 'goBack' }),
      },
    };
  },
}

A goBack and goForward feature would be most welcome.
