how to access the homepage /path from within the app?

In the documentation it says to use the ‘homepage’ property in package.json to produce builds that are not mounted at the server root.

How do I access the pathname portion of this property in the application? I need to use it, for instance, inside <Route> declaration:

<Route path={?homepage.path?} .... />

Similarly, when interacting with react-router’s functions, I need to access it. I’d like this to be DRY. Thank you.

No thank you.

I don’t have your repo cloned, and submitting a PR for a 1 sentence change means at least 3 min of work for me when it would mean 30s of work for you. Also, I don’t want to sign the facebook contributor agreement, and in general I feel I’m doing enough (without pay) for FB here by helping to debug and improve your product, and, more importantly, by teaching it to students. Or at least trying to, given the constraint that a 30 day old version fails documented functionality 😉

On a technical note, I don’t understand why a project “homepage” is the same as the production build deployment target. You probably shouldn’t be using the “homepage” property for this (?)

You can edit documentation on GitHub.

This project has no CLA as far as I know.

It’s your call, sure. I do appreciate your work. As you can imagine, I also have a ton of other issues to take care of including in React itself, and this project is largely driven by community contributions.

For now, that ship has sailed. We could change it at some point when we introduce our own configuration format but we’ve been avoiding decisions about it for now. I think we may introduce optional streamlined configuration in several months, and then we’ll consider making it more explicit.
