How is the state prop on the Navigate component supposed to work?

[emme1444]

How is solid-app-router's state property supposed to work? I'm using the Navigate component with a simple object for state which contains the pathname before the redirect (to /login). Then on the /login route I thought I could just grab that using useLocation's location.state. But this is null. What am I missing?

Also, I understand if this is supposed to be over at solid-app-router's repo, but I though maybe because I'm using solid-start anyway it could very well be a problem here. Anyway if you think this should be asked at solid-app-router instead, please let me know (or just transfer the discussion?).

Thanks

It sounds like your understanding is correct. The state should be set by a navigation such as a Link or Navigate component or with the imperative navigation API and then read from location.state on the destination route. Here is an example which illustrates it using just the router. I wouldn't expect SolidStart to change anything as it mostly just re-exports the router parts.
