Adding prev history to locationState on initial load?

I’d like to push some history (e.g. pathname) to the prev object on initial load of the page.

Is it possible to do this without using the Rudy-History package or do I need the createHistory function that returns an object in some proper form to connectRoutes?

Thanks for shedding a little light on this, it seems weird to require another package when what it looks like I’m trying to do is simply:

location: {
  ...location,
  prev: {
    ...location.prev,
    pathname: 'newpath'
  }
}

I haven’t tried it, but my impression from reading the code is that this is supported in Rudy by using the history reset function

https://github.com/respond-framework/rudy/blob/3c184800682bbfa5adaecb7e8aef3657cb0ff9f6/packages/rudy/src/middleware/transformAction/utils/formatAction.js#L30

Basically you import reset and it will create a redux action that resets the entire history stack to whatever you want

It seems like no matter what i try with regard to pushing/replacing/resetting state on initial page load, i dont get the back button functionality (it’s grayed out).

But if I browse to a page and then back, the new history has been inserted and takes the correct number of button presses (so one more will go to the new Page / button is active).

Do you think this is a chrome issue and not a router issue?

Thanks again

edit: doesn’t seem related to lib so closing.
