Gatsby Link component to prop SSR href behavior relative URL fragment official documentation

💡 Result:

The official Gatsby documentation recommends using the standard HTML <a> element for fragment links (e.g., <a href="#section">) and internal links that do not target a specific page handled by Gatsby [1][2]. While the Gatsby <Link> component is designed for internal navigation between Gatsby pages, it is not intended for anchor/fragment links on the same page or external URLs [3][1][4]. When using the <Link> component, the to prop is primarily used for defining the pathname of internal pages [3][1]. If you attempt to use the <Link> component with a fragment (e.g., <Link to="/page#fragment">), behavior can be inconsistent regarding Server-Side Rendering (SSR) and client-side routing. Community and developer discussions emphasize that the <Link> component's internal logic processes the to prop to determine if a route is internal and to apply path prefixes [3][5]. Because of this, it is considered a best practice to avoid using <Link> for anchor/fragment navigation to prevent potential routing issues, hydration mismatches, or unexpected back-button behavior [2].

site:github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby v5.16.1 packages/gatsby-link/src/index.js Link href to prop

💡 Result:

In the Gatsby Link component (provided by gatsby-link), the to prop is used instead of the standard HTML href attribute to define the navigation target [1][2]. In the source code for gatsby-link (including version 5.16.1), the Link component is designed specifically for internal navigation within a Gatsby site [3][4]. When you provide a to prop, Gatsby's internal logic processes the path—applying prefixes if necessary—and then uses it to manage navigation through the underlying router (historically Reach Router) [3]. Key points regarding the use of to versus href: 1. Usage: Always use the to prop for internal Gatsby links [1][2]. If you need to link to an external site or a page not handled by your Gatsby application, you should use a standard HTML <a> element with an href attribute instead [1][4][2]. 2. Implementation: The gatsby-link component does not natively expose an href prop in its API [4][5]. If you attempt to pass an href to the Link component, it may not function as expected because the component is not designed to treat it as a navigation target [6]. 3. Customization: If you need to manipulate the underlying <a> tag (for example, to add specific classes or attributes), you can use the getProps prop, which allows you to pass a function that returns props to be applied to the rendered anchor element [7]. For further details on the properties accepted by the Link component, you can refer to the official Gatsby documentation on built-in components [1].

@gatsbyjs/reach-router resolve relative path hash implementation

💡 Result:

The @gatsbyjs/reach-router library uses a custom utility function, located at @gatsbyjs/reach-router/lib/utils, to resolve relative paths [1]. This resolution logic is specifically designed to handle navigation within a client-side routing environment where trailing slashes can be ambiguous [1][2]. Regarding the handling of hash fragments (#) and relative paths: 1. Hash Fragment Handling: The standard resolve logic in reach-router is generally configured to treat paths starting with a hash (#) as absolute relative to the current URL, meaning it preserves them rather than attempting to resolve them as part of the directory structure [3]. In some custom implementations, developers have explicitly modified the resolve function to check for the presence of a hash (e.g., if(startsWith(to, "/") || startsWith(to, "#")) { return to; }) to ensure these links are correctly ignored by the relative path resolution logic [3]. 2. Relative Path Resolution Logic: The router treats relative links by essentially assuming the current page path ends with a trailing slash [2]. This ensures that navigating to a relative path like./baz from /foo/bar resolves to /foo/bar/baz rather than /foo/baz [2]. Because of this design, Gatsby’s own implementation of the resolve function has historically faced issues where it sometimes incorrectly strips trailing slashes or interacts unexpectedly with query parameters, necessitating workarounds in various Gatsby versions [1][4]. If you are encountering issues with hash links in relative navigation, the common approach is to verify if your version of the resolve utility treats hashes as special cases or to perform the resolution manually using the @gatsbyjs/reach-router/lib/utils resolve function, ensuring your logic handles the hash fragment independently before or after path resolution [1][5].

Prevent null pathnames in explicit-content links.

When contents is non-empty, the first render passes to="null#Installation" because intapath is initialized to null and set only in useEffect. Gatsby rewrites this local relative path to a pathname containing null, so the link does not target the current-page fragment in SSR or the initial client render. Use <a href={x.link}> for same-page fragments, or defer rendering until intapath is set.

In `@src/components/SistentNavigation/intra-page.js` at line 88, Update the
explicit-content link rendering around the contents selection so same-page
fragment links use a direct href or are withheld until intapath is initialized,
preventing the initial null# fragment pathname in SSR and the first client
render.
