Passing object to a new tab/window using <Link ... target="_blank">

I’m using redux, and react-router.

When I need to route and pass data to next component, I used <Link query={{ id : 'hint' }} ... >.

So next component can get hints from this.props.location.query, and use it to intended data from redux (subscribed) store.

But I need to change that link to new window, so I used <Link ... target="_blank">.

New window is opened and new component is loaded successfully, but the store of new window has empty(new) state. So I cannot find intended data from this store.

I was able to implement same functionality at my other jquery project, using window.opener, with global variable, like window.opener.getData()

Is there any way to access parent’s store/state?

@SubhuMS When you open the new window using window.open, you will get the instance of it. You can send postMessage to it, and you will be able to send/receive state between windows.

I created and wrapped my whole element with <Popout> and <PoppedOut>, which send or receive state when popped out.

I hope it helps you, Please tell me you need a gist for this codes.

@mazicky - Would you mind posting a gist? I still am a bit unclear over how you managed to di it.

Thanks.
