TypeError: this.props.navigation.getParam is not a function while passing parameter using ReactNative

Question

I am getting an error while accessing parameter by the getParam method like following .

    const source = this.props.navigation.getParam("source","0")
    const doFollow = this.props.navigation.getParam("doFollow","")

I have passed the parameter using the following method

this.props.navigation.navigate('Details', {otherParam:"anything"})

Answer 1

It depends on your react-navigation version that you are using.

In v4

this.props.navigation.getParam('source')

In v5

this.props.route.params.source
