Call a function from within highchart click event in reactjs

Question

I have a summary page in a separate js file. Inside another home js file, I am using highchart to show a graph for each service and on click of a bar in the chart I want to render the summary page. I am new to frontend development and posting this after lot of googling for the entire day. All links I visited suggests how to visit an external link or alert or call a component function within same file on click event. But not what I am looking for.

My highchart plot summary option on home page:

 plotOptions: {
                        bar : {
                          stacking: 'normal',
                          dataLabels: {
                            enabled: true,
                            format: '{point.y}',
                            color: 'black'
                          },
                            states: {
                              hover:{
                                enabled: true,
                                brightness: -0.3
                              }
                            },
                            cursor: 'pointer',

                              events:{
                                 alert(e.point.name) // works
                                 <Summary component={e.point.name}/> // doesn't work in loading the summary page

                                     }
                                    }
                        }

Just began frontend development and I don't how to render the summary page by passing respective the component on the event of clicking on its bar chart. Thanks for me helping out on this

You can use state to change the view. Full working example below:

class SomeComponent extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return <div>{this.props.name}</div>;
  }
}

class App extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      renderChart: true,
      pointName: ""
    };
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        {this.state.renderChart ? (
          <HighchartsReact
            highcharts={Highcharts}
            options={{
              series: [
                {
                  data: [["one", 1], ["two", 2], ["three", 3]],
                  point: {
                    events: {
                      click: (function(component) {
                        return function() {
                          component.setState({
                            renderChart: false,
                            pointName: this.name
                          });
                        };
                      })(this)
                    }
                  }
                }
              ]
            }}
          />
        ) : (
          <SomeComponent name={this.state.pointName} />
        )}
      </div>
    );
  }
}
