@akalli/navigation v0.2.2

Overview

This library is part of a larger framework with many solutions that you can access at here. All the modules are independent so you can use it without the other ones but we recommend give it a try due the fact they make much easier to implement the features navigation(@akalli/navigation), global state(@akalli/state), smart components(@akalli/components) and icons(@akalli/icons).

Quick start

This package helps to use react navigation in react-native projects, with integrations such as redux persist, creation of routes automaticaly and authentication logic. Using a small and simple configuration object all that is delivered.

Instalation

npm install @akalli/navigation react-native-svg @react-navigation/drawer @react-navigation/native @react-navigation/native-stack @react-navigation/stack

Basic example:

// Sample screens

export const Main = () => {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Text>I am the main another screen</Text>
    </View>
  );
};

export const Login = () => {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Text>I am the main another screen</Text>
    </View>
  );
};

export const AnotherScreen = () => {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Text>I am the main another screen</Text>
    </View>
  );
};

// Config base file

const routerConfig: IRouterProps = {
  appInitial: "Main", // Initial route
  screens: {
    MainScreens: {
      Main: Main,
    },
    AssistantScreens: {
      AnotherScreen: AnotherScreen,
    },
  },
};

// Router Provider
export default function App() {
  return <Router config={routerConfig} />;
}

Hooks

useNav - Shortcuts for navigation functions.

const { navigate, routerState, routes, route, back, drawer } = useNav();

useDict - Dictionary access mainly, but not exclusevily, for translation features.

const { lang, setLang, dict } = useDict("myModule");

useAuth - Authentication helpers and status.

This will only work if you wrap your app with

const {
  data: { tokens, user, isAuthenticated },
  actions: { setTokens, setUser, setIsAuthenticated, clearAuth },
} = useAuth();

A more advanced config example:

const routerConfig: IRouterProps = {
  appInitialRoute: "Main", // Initial route
  authInitialRoute: "SignIn", // Auth initial route
  env: "prod", // authentication required to access app routes
  activeStack: "auth", // active stack, works only if not env = prod
  drawer: { // drawer props
    position: "left";
    bg: "#26a3c9",
    labelColor: "#e8d7cf",
    icons: {
      Main: MainScreenIcon,
      SignIn: SignScreenIcon,
      AnotherScreen: AnotherScreenIcon
    },
    CustomMenu: MyMenu // This option makes labelColor and icons be ignored because you have full control of the Menu component
  },
  defaultLanguage: 'es',
  dicts: { // dictionaries are the internationalization feature
    main: {
      en: {
        MY_TEXT: 'My text'
      },
      pt: {
        MY_TEXT: 'Meu texto'
      }
    }
  },
  bgs: { // background colors
    authStack: "#26a3c9",
    appStack: "#e8d7cf"
  },
  screens: {
    MainScreens: {
      Main: Main,
    },
    AssistantScreens: {
      AnotherScreen: AnotherScreen,
    },
    AuthScreens: {
      SignIn: SignIn,
    },
  },
};

Custom drawer

If you want to create a complete custom drawer menu you can use CustomMenu propertie at the config. It receives 2 props, DrawerProps and routes.

Publish a new version

1. Replace main with index.ts on package.json
2. Delete all dependencies from package.json
3. npm publish

npm i styled-components @react-navigation/drawer @react-navigation/native @react-navigation/native-stack @react-navigation/stack

Development

1. Replace main with node_modules/expo/AppEntry.js in package.json
2. Add all packages again to dependencies in package.json
3. expo start or npm start and scan QR code on expo go
