I have the following route:

<Route path="/userstream/:user" component={ Profile } param="stream" />

Then in my component i get :user in this way: this.props.match.params.user

But, how I can get stream from hardcoded param?

Thank you in advance.

One way would be to pass it as a prop to component:

<Route path="/userstream/:user" component={ (props) => <Profile {...props} param="stream" /> }  />

Edit: for completeness sake, it's worth to mention a second approach, which is to use a render prop:

<Route path="/userstream/:user" render={ (props) => <Profile {...props} param="stream" /> }  />

There are some performance differences between the two approaches: react router difference between component and render.

@apokryfos not necessarily.
Maybe I'm using an older version
I mean both should work, I just prefer this version, since it's less verbose.
No I mean I think in older versions of react-router this didn't work. I'm not entirely sure but that's what I remember.
That must be quite an old version, it's been around for a while. Also it seems there are some performance diffs between the two approaches: stackoverflow.com/questions/48150567/…
