react-native-detect-press-outside v1.0.4

react-native-detect-press-outside

A wrapper view that helps to detect when user press outside a child component by passing a ref to this component as a prop.

Install with Yarn:

yarn add react-native-detect-press-outside

Or with NPM:

npm i react-native-detect-press-outside

Import into your component like so:

import OutsideView from 'react-native-detect-press-outside';

Usage

import OutsideView from 'react-native-detect-press-outside';

const App = () => {
  const childRef = useRef();

  return (
    <OutsideView 
      childRef={childRef}
      onPressOutside={() => {
        // handle press outside of childRef event
      }}
    >
      <View />
      <View>
        <View ref={childRef}/> // The component you want to detect press event outside of it
      </View>
      <View />
    </OutsideView>
  );
};

Props:

• The OutsideView component was built base on View component so it will accept all View's Props
• childRef: ref of the component that you want to detect press event outside of.
• onPressOutside: callback function when press outside of childref
