🤔 About

This is a utility function to ease the presentation of <Modal /> content on React Native and React Native Web. It provides the following properties:

• Works around web's the zIndex presentation issue, and ensures <Modal /> content is always rendered top-most, under the provision the <ModalProvider /> rests at the graphical content root of your app.
• Enforces only a single <Modal /> can be presented at a time.
• Ensures sequential presentation of <Modal/>s, prioritized by which requested to become visible first.

✍️ Example

Using the withModal utility, you can turn arbitrary content into something that can be presented using the defined ModalComponent:

import {
  Modal as SomeModalComponent,
} from 'react-native';
import { ModalProvider, withModal } from '@cawfree/react-native-modal-provider';

const ModalContent = ({ ...nextProps }) => (
  <View
    {...extraProps}
  />
);

const ConnectedModalContent = withModal(
  ModalContent,
);

const App = () => (
  <ModalProvider
    ModalComponent={SomeModalComponent}
  >
    <ConnectedModalContent
      visible
      style={{
        flex: 1,
        backgroundColor: 'green',
      }}
    />
  </ModalProvider>
);

You can run the example by heading into the example directory and executing:

yarn # or npm install
npm run web

Then use your browser to navigate into your local instance.

🧰 Rolling Your Own

To define your own ModalComponent to render using the ModalProvider, all it expects is the ModalComponent accepts a visible prop, which is used to define whether the Modal is presented or not. There is a working example of how to do this in the example directory.

There's an existing template based on using react-native-material-menu as the ModalComponent.
