I'm using react-router@4.1.1
└─┬ react-router@4.1.1
├─┬ history@4.6.1
│ ├── resolve-pathname@2.1.0
│ └── value-equal@0.2.1
└── warning@3.0.0
and this message appears in development when attaching a react-router Link
./src/containers/FilterLink.js
37:4-8 'react-router' does not contain an export named 'Link'.
This is the import code:
import React from 'react';
import { Link } from 'react-router';
By the way changing version to react-router@2.0.1 seems to be working.
Does anyone know if Link was removed from react-router? what happened with Link?
If not, why do I get this error?

4.x introduced some breaking changes, you'll need to import Link from react-router-dom:
CommonJS
var Link = require('react-router-dom').Link
ES6 Modules
import { Link } from 'react-router-dom'
Take a peek here for some additional background: https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router/tree/master/packages/react-router-dom

does it provide any side effect when combined with browserHistory from react-router?

@Karlos If you do something like <Link to={browserHistory.push('/foo')}>, that will most likely have to change. They really did completely rewrite 4.x - have a look here: stackoverflow.com/questions/42701129/…

I see router 4.x breaks rendering flow with react-dom render, even if using Router, Route from react-router-dom. I would like to minimize the refactoring of the code for this change, so decide whether to use 4.x with compatible versions of react-dom or just keep using react-router < 4.x

@Karlos Clicked the chat by accident, feel free to disregard. And I think that's a safe call, AFAIK, they will be supporting 3.x indefinitely, so upgrading to 4.x is not at all required.

Don't forget to install the react-router-dom package instead of react-router: npm install --save react-router-dom
