Usage
Here’s a simple example of how to use the @sekizlipenguen/react-native-scroll-menu:
Class Component Example
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { View } from 'react-native';
// Import the component
import ScrollingButtonMenu from '@sekizlipenguen/react-native-scroll-menu';
export default class Example extends Component {
render() {
return (
<ScrollingButtonMenu
items={[
{id: "1", name: 'Life'},
{id: "2", name: 'Time'},
{id: "3", name: 'Faith'},
{id: "4", name: 'Cosmos'},
{id: "5", name: 'Fall'},
]}
onPress={(e) => console.log(e)}
selected={"1"}
/>
);
}
}Functional Component with Hook Example
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { View, Text } from 'react-native';
// Import the component
import ScrollingButtonMenu from '@sekizlipenguen/react-native-scroll-menu';
const ExampleWithHook = () => {
const [selectedItem, setSelectedItem] = useState("1");
const handlePress = (item) => {
console.log(item);
setSelectedItem(item.id);
};
return (
<View>
<ScrollingButtonMenu
items={[
{id: "1", name: 'Life'},
{id: "2", name: 'Time'},
{id: "3", name: 'Faith'},
{id: "4", name: 'Cosmos'},
{id: "5", name: 'Fall'},
]}
onPress={handlePress}
selected={selectedItem}
/>
<Text>Selected Item: {selectedItem}</Text>
</View>
);
};
export default ExampleWithHook;Using Custom Components and Images in Items
You can now use custom React components (e.g. images, icons, or any JSX) instead of just plain text labels.
To do this, use the component property instead of name:
items = {
[
{id: "1", name: 'Life'},
{
id: "2",
component
:
(
<View style={{alignItems: 'center'}}>
<Image source={require('./icon.png')} style={{width: 24, height: 24}}/>
<Text style={{fontSize: 12, marginTop: 4}}>Icon</Text>
</View>
),
}
,
{
id: "3", name
:
'Faith'
}
,
]
}You can combine images with labels using any layout (e.g.
View,Text, etc.) to create richer item content.
If the component field is present, the name field will be ignored and only the custom component will be rendered.
Per-Item onPress Function
You can define a custom onPress function for each item individually. If provided, it will override the global onPress for that specific item.
items = {
[
{id: "1", name: 'Home'},
{
id: "2",
name
:
'Profile',
onPress
:
() => {
console.log("Profile pressed!");
},
}
,
{
id: "3", name
:
'Settings'
}
,
]
}If
onPressis provided on an item, it will be executed instead of the globalonPresspassed to the component.
Optional Button Style (No Default)
If you want full control over styling and don't want the default button style, you can omit it by passing an empty buttonStyle:
<ScrollingButtonMenu
items={...}
buttonStyle={{}} // no default style will be applied
/>When buttonStyle is set, the default internal style will not be applied. This allows full customization from the outside.
