How to pass json data object {items.symbol} value to another class - json

Question

I am using React js. I have a class Stock.js where I am fetching an api and displaying the data on the webpage in the form of table.
When I click on the table data (table data are links) It sends the item.symbol to onhandleclick() method. For example:
|Symbol|Age|
|X | 20|
|Y |22 |
So the values in symbol table are referred as item.symbol
Here if I click on X it sends the value X to onhandleclick() and now I want to send this value X or Y whichever user clicks on to another class. By another class I mean let's say I have a class xyz.js I wanna send the value of item.symbol to class xyz.js so I can use this value and do whatever I want with that value in my xyz.js class. Is there a way to do it?
My code: (Stock.js)
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { Link } from "react-router-dom";
import Symbols from "./Symbols";
export default class Stocks extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
items: [],
isLoaded: false,
symbolsname: "",
};
}
handleClick(symbol) {
//pass the value to another class here
}
componentDidMount(symbol) {
fetch("http://131.181.190.87:3001/all")
.then((res) => res.json())
.then((json) => {
this.setState({
isLoaded: true,
items: json,
});
});
}
render() {
let filteredItems = this.state.items.filter((item) => {
return (
item.symbol.toUpperCase().indexOf(this.state.search.toUpperCase()) !==
-1 || item.industry.indexOf(this.state.search) !== -1
);
});
var { isLoaded, items } = this.state;
if (!isLoaded) {
return <div>Loading...</div>;
} else {
return (
<div>
<table border={2} cellPadding={1}>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Symbol</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Industry</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
{filteredItems.map((item) => (
<tr>
<Link to="/symbols">
<td
key={item.symbol}
onClick={() => this.onhandleclick(item.symbol)} //here I am passing the value of item.symbol to onhandleclick()
>
{item.symbol}
</td>
</Link>
<td key={item.name}>{item.name}</td>
<td key={item.industry}>{item.industry}</td>
</tr>
))}
}
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
);
}
}
}
After doing what maniraj-murugansaid in the answers, it says undefined, so I have uploaded the screenshot

Answer 1

You could redirect to symbol.js using history.push with click event handler like, (Remove Link tag here) So change,
<Link to="/symbols">
<td key={item.symbol} onClick={() => this.onhandleclick(item.symbol)} //here I am passing the value of item.symbol to onhandleclick()>
{item.symbol}
</td>
</Link>
to,
<td key={0} onClick={() => this.onhandleclick(item.symbol)}
style={{ cursor: "pointer", color: "blue" }}
>
{item.symbol}
</td>
And onHandleClick function like,
onhandleclick(data) {
const { history } = this.props;
history.push({
pathname: "/Symbol",
symbol: data
});
}
Here the second property is props that you can pass which is symbol in your case so you can give it like, symbol: data ..

Update:
-> After the update from OP , there are some changes that have been made.
=> import { BrowserRouter } from "react-router-dom"; in the main component index.js where you are initializing the parent component in the call to ReactDOM.render .
index.js:
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import App from "./App";
import { BrowserRouter } from "react-router-dom";
const rootElement = document.getElementById("root");
ReactDOM.render(
<BrowserRouter>
<App />
</BrowserRouter>,
rootElement
);
stocks.js:
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { Link } from "react-router-dom";
import Symbols from "./Symbols";
const filteredItems = [
{ symbol: "X", name: "item1", industry: "industry1" },
{ symbol: "Y", name: "item2", industry: "industry2" }
];
export default class Stocks extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
items: [],
isLoaded: false,
search: "",
symbol: ""
};
}
updateSearch(event) {
this.setState({ search: event.target.value });
}
onhandleclick(data) {
const { history } = this.props;
history.push({
pathname: "/Symbols",
symbol: data
});
}
componentDidMount() {}
render() {
return (
<div>
<form className="form-for-table-search">
Search symbol or industry:  
<input
type="text"
value={this.state.search}
onChange={this.updateSearch.bind(this)}
/>
   {" "}
<button type="button" className="btn-submit">
Search
</button>
<br />
</form>
<table border={2} cellPadding={1}>

<tbody>
{filteredItems.map((item, index) => (
<tr key={index}>
<td

</td>
<td key={item.name}>{item.name}</td>
<td key={item.industry}>{item.industry}</td>
</tr>
))}
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
);
}
}
Symbols.js:
import React from "react";
export default class Symbol extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {
console.log("came here", this.props.location.symbol);
}
render() {
return <div>Symbol value: {this.props.location.symbol}</div>;
}
}

You could export a function from Symbol.js and use that in handleClick.
// Symbol.js
export default class Symbol {
doSomething(symbol) {
// do something
}
}
// Stocks.js
import Symbol from 'Symbol.js';
handleClick(symbol) {
Symbol.doSomething(symbol);
};
