Electron-react-boilerplate: Browser history not working in electron app

[chie4hao]

My electron app works fine with HashHistory, but when I switch to browserHistory,not working fine.
I noticed that the two have different initial pathname.

const history = createHashHistory();
console.log(history.location.pathname);     
//  "/"

const history = createBrowserHistory();
console.log(history.location.pathname);     
//  "/C:/Users/asdf/Documents/GitHub/electron-react-boilerplate/app/app.html"
//  This path matches the route "/C:/"
//  and when I use "history.goBack()" and "history.goForward()" also found some errors

then i use the following code, the problem is solved.

const history = createBrowserHistory({
  basename: window.location.pathname
});
