Navigation

API Reference

useNavigation

A hook that lets you push and pop view components in the navigation stack.

You most likely won't use this hook too often. To push a new component, use the Push Action. When a user presses ESC, we automatically pop to the previous component.

Signature

function useNavigation(): Navigation;

Example

import { Action, ActionPanel, Detail, useNavigation } from "@raycast/api";  function Ping() {  const { push } = useNavigation();   return (  <Detail  markdown="Ping"  actions={  <ActionPanel>  <Action title="Push" onAction={() => push(<Pong />)} />  </ActionPanel>  }  />  ); }  function Pong() {  const { pop } = useNavigation();   return (  <Detail  markdown="Pong"  actions={  <ActionPanel>  <Action title="Pop" onAction={pop} />  </ActionPanel>  }  />  ); }  export default function Command() {  return <Ping />; }
