'React.js: How can I download two different files with two different separate Button components?
I have got two buttons as components that need to download two different files, but so far both buttons download the same file that is no surprise for me. I have tried different solutions, with useState() and without, but none of them seem to be working. I know I am missing logic here, but I do not understand where I am missing it. How do I download a different file when clicking the first button, and download another file when clicking on another button? Should there be something that I should recap on, too?
Here is the code:
Hero.js (Parent component)
import Button from "../../components/UI/Button/Button";
const Hero = () => {
return (
<div>
<div>
<Button>CV (English)</Button>
<Button>CV (Another Language)</Button>
</div>
</div>
);
};
export default Hero;
Button.js (Child component)
import cv from "../../../assets/files/CV English.pdf";
import anotherLanguage from "../../../assets/files/anotherLanguage.pdf";
const Button = (props) => {
const file = cv;
return (
<button>
{file === cv ? (
<a href={cv} download="CV English">
{props.children}
</a>
) : (
<a href={anotherLanguage} download="CV Another Language">
{props.children}
</a>
)}
</button>
);
};
export default Button;

You could pass a language prop to the button like this:
<div>
<Button language="en">CV (English)</Button>
<Button>CV (Another Language)</Button>
</div>
And then use it in the Button component like this:
import cv from "../../../assets/files/CV English.pdf";
import anotherLanguage from "../../../assets/files/anotherLanguage.pdf";
const Button = (props) => {
const file = cv;
return (
<button>
{props.language === "en" ? (
<a href={cv} download="CV English">
{props.children}
</a>
) : (
<a href={anotherLanguage} download="CV Another Language">
{props.children}
</a>
)}
</button>
);
};
export default Button;
