React Router DOM Problem

Page Not Found
Looks like you're followed a broken link or entered a URL that doesn't exist on this site.

If you are using react-router-dom and you get this error message when you try reload the route page.

Create a _redirects file inside the public folder and copy this code

/* /index.html 200

Bonus: Set fetch baseURL dynamically (on Development or on Production)

Changing API baseURL whenever I deploy to the server is really painful because I always forget to do that. However, I found a trick to handle this problem.

I am using axios for handling fetch-request and I set up this in the index.js

// ./src/index.js
...

if (!process.env.NODE_ENV || process.env.NODE_ENV === "development") {
  // development URL
  axios.defaults.baseURL = `${process.env.REACT_APP_API_SERVER_DEVELOPMENT}/api/v1`;
} else {
  // production URL
  axios.defaults.baseURL = `${process.env.REACT_APP_API_SERVER_PRODUCTION}/api/v1`;
}

ReactDOM.render(
  <React.StrictMode>
    <BrowserRouter>
      <App />
    </BrowserRouter>
  </React.StrictMode>,
  document.getElementById("root")

What is process.env.REACT_APP_API_SERVER_DEVELOPMENT and process.env.REACT_APP_API_SERVER_PRODUCTION? I create .env to save the baseURL.

./src/.env
REACT_APP_API_SERVER_DEVELOPMENT=http://localhost:3001
REACT_APP_API_SERVER_PRODUCTION=https://herokuy-deploy-test.herokuapp.com

We are good to forget changing URL for production.
