Components

NativeBase is made from effective building blocks referred to as components. The Components are constructed in pure React Native platform along with some JavaScript functionality with rich set of customisable properties. These components allow you to quickly build the perfect interface.

NativeBase includes components such as anatomy of your app screens, header, textbox, buttons, badge, icon, form, checkbox, radio-button, list, card, thumbnail, progress bar, spinner, layout, search bar etc.

1. anatomy-headref

2. Anatomy

Automatically animates view to its new position.
A common way to use NativeBase screen structure is to have all the components within <Container>

General Syntax

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Container, Header, Title, Content, Footer, FooterTab, Button, Left, Right, Body, Icon, Text } from 'native-base';
export default class AnatomyExample extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <Container>
        <Header>
          <Left>
            <Button transparent>
              <Icon name='menu' />
            </Button>
          </Left>
          <Body>
            <Title>Header</Title>
          </Body>
          <Right />
        </Header>
        <Content>
          <Text>
            This is Content Section
          </Text>
        </Content>
        <Footer>
          <FooterTab>
            <Button full>
              <Text>Footer</Text>
            </Button>
          </FooterTab>
        </Footer>
      </Container>
    );
  }
}

  • NativeBase provides its own frame component, named after <Container>.
  • All the components should be included within the Container.
  • Container takes mainly three components: <Header>, <Content> and <Footer>.
  • Container comes with its predefined stylesheet, with an added advantage of accepting user-defined styles.
  • Usage of Container's Header component is very similar to your HTML <head>. So is with Footer.
  • The Content component of Container is nothing but the body section of your screen.

Configuration

Property Default Option Description
Header - - Renders as Header (navbar) of your screen.
Input values: Button, Title (Text).
Content - - Represents the main content of your screen.
There can be only one <Content> component in a screen.
Footer - - Renders as Footer of your screen.
Input values: FooterTab

export default class HeaderExample extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <Container>
        <Header>

  • Content takes in the whole collection of React Native and NativeBase components.
  • Content provides you with stylesheet.
  • User can add custom styles while defining Content within their app.
  • Replacing Component: React Native Keyboard Aware Scroll View's KeyboardAwareScrollView

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Container, Header, Content, Footer, Text } from 'native-base';
export default class ContentExample extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <Container>
        <Header />

padder true boolean Applies margin at all sides to Content section. Can be used with NativeBase View as well.
disableKBDismissScroll false boolean Disables automatic scroll on focus.
enableResetScrollToCoords true boolean Lets the user enable or disable automatic resetScrollToCoords.
  • NativeBase component that renders as footer, include your favourite apps for your screen.
  • There can be only a single Footer component into your Container.
  • To have Footer for your screen, include Footer component within Container.
  • NativeBase gives you flexibility to define your Footer component anywhere in the bounds of Container.
  • Footer takes input as: FooterTab.
  • The components those are defined within Footer will be rendered in the same order that you define them.
  • Footer provides you with stylesheet.
  • User can add custom styles while defining Footer within their app.
  • Replacing Component: React Native View.

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Container, Header, Content, Footer, FooterTab, Button, Text } from 'native-base';
export default class FooterExample extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <Container>
        <Header />

        </Footer>
      </Container>
    );
  }
}

3. ActionSheet

NativeBase ActionSheet is a wrapper around the React Native ActionSheetIOS component.

For ActionSheet to work, you need to wrap your topmost component inside <Root> from native-base.

import { Root } from "native-base";
import { StackNavigator } from "react-navigation";
const AppNavigator = StackNavigator(
  {
    Page: { screen: Page },
  }
);
export default () =>
  <Root>
    <AppNavigator />
  </Root>;

4. Badge

All of us must have seen notification badges somewhere, such as on smart phones or facebook. NativeBase is here to include this into your collection of readymade components. Badges are numerical indicators of how many items are associated with an element. Badges can notify you that there are new or unread messages or notifications. These can be very effective in alerting the user to new things on your app.

A disabled button is unusable and un-clickable.
The disabled prop of NativeBase Button is of type boolean. When present, it specifies that the button should be disabled. The disabled prop can be set to keep a user from clicking on the button until some other condition has been met (like selecting a checkbox, etc.). Then, a conditional code could remove the disabled value, and make the button usable.

51. Layout

The layout system is an essential concept that needs to be mastered in order to create great layouts and UIs. React Native uses Flexbox to create the layouts, which is great when we need to accommodate our components and views in different screen sizes or even different devices. Flexbox is awesome but it could be tiresome for newbies.

Not being very good at Flexbox?
Here comes the Easy Grid of NativeBase, a wrapper of Flexbox.


The layout system in NativeBase is very powerful and flexible. No more worries about props of Flexbox such as alignItems, flexDirection, justifyContent, margin, padding, position, width etc. You can create any layout with all the available options that we have. In order to build custom layouts and components, understanding how layout works in NativeBase is not as hard as Flexbox.
Flexbox makes it look like percentages, however what actually is happening is just ratios. On the easier part, ratios are easier to represent than percentage / decimals. For this reason, the Easy Grid takes in ratios in place of percentage.
Performance wise, Easy Grid is noteworthy and works as fine as Flexbox, not much of calculation.

          </Grid>
        </Content>
      </Container>
    );
  }
}

NOTE: <Content> component uses <ScrollView>. This is required by <Col> and <Row> elements of Easy-Grid to have a defined height.

    return (
      <Container>
        <Header>
          <Left>
            <Button transparent>
              <Icon name="arrow-back" />
            </Button>
          </Left>
          <Body>
            <Segment>
              <Button first><Text>Puppies</Text></Button>
              <Button last active><Text>Cubs</Text></Button>
            </Segment>

67. Spinner

If you have certain screens of your app that take some time to load, you may want to consider a page loader. A page loader is any kind of animation that visually communicates to a visitor that the page is loading and to just sit tight for a few seconds. Without a page loader, user might think that the app is being unresponsive and just click away in frustration. A page loader also provides a small distraction which can actually makes the wait seem much shorter.

76. Ref to Components

  • NativeBase is built on top of React Native. Hence, the components of NativeBase have respective replacing React Native elements.
  • NativeBase has now made it easy for developers, to access the any of its components using ref, along with its associated React Native elements.
  • After building your component, you may find yourself wanting to reach out and invoke methods on component instances returned from render().
  • This can be achieved from refs. Refs are a great way to send a message to a particular child instance.
  • The ref attribute takes a callback function, and the callback will be executed immediately after the component is mounted or unmounted.

Syntax

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Container, Content, Button } from 'native-base';
export default class RefExample extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <Container>
        <Content>
          <Button ref={ (c) => this._button = c }>
            Click Me
          </Button>
        </Content>
      </Container>
    );
  }
}

  • this._button gets you the reference of NativeBase Button.
  • this._button._root gets you the reference of NativeBase Button's replacing React Native element i.e., TouchableOpacity.
  • This feature is accessible with all of NativeBase components.
