react-native-scale-text

Scale-text is a component that allows you to keep the display of your texts consistent and independent of the device's display context. It's a full typescript component that uses a View wrapper with onLayout state to compute the font of the text relatively. The work is still in progress but you can use it and improve it if you want! PR are welcome.

Compare responsiveScreenFontSize formula VS ScaleText component VS RN value (24)

Portrait

Landscape

Installation

Using yarn:

yarn add @grean/react-native-scale-text

Usage

Simply use <ScaleText> component almost like a RN <Text> component.

const isLandscape = false
const fontSize = isLandscape ? 130 : 72
const yourText = `Lorem ... magni.`

//removed code for brevety

<ScaleText
  {...{
    allowFontScaling: false,
    debug: true,
    fontSize,
    onPress: () => (alert('ScaleText clicked!')),
    textStyle: {
      backgroundColor: 'green'
    }
  }}
>
  {yourText}
</ScaleText>

Component props

interface ScaleTextProps {
  allowFontScaling?: boolean // false
  children: React.ReactNode // 'your text here'
  containerStyle?: {
    // * <View> style props
    // default running values that you can override:
    flex: 1,
    justifyContent: 'center',
  }
  fontSize: number // 80
  padding?: string // '0%'
  onPress?: () => void
  textStyle?: {
    // * <Text> style prop EXCEPT fontSize.
    // default running values that you can override:
    textAlign: 'center',
    color: '#fff',
    includeFontPadding: false,
  }
  debug?: boolean // false
}
