react-native-reanimated-indicators v4.0.0

Non JS thread blocking indicator components for React Native.

The code for this example is here.

  • 1. <BallIndicator />
  • 2. <DotIndicator />

• Why I created this library

Usage

yarn add react-native-reanimated-indicators

Components

1. <BallIndicator />

Looks almost the same as the original.

<BallIndicator color="orange" />

2. <DotIndicator />

Looks like the indicator at "Messages" at "mac os" or "iOS", but I couldn't create the same.

<DotIndicator color="tomato" scaleEnabled={true} />

Example

import React from "react";
import { StyleSheet, Text, View } from "react-native";
import { BallIndicator, DotIndicator } from "react-native-reanimated-indicators";

export const IndicatorScreen: React.FC = () => {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Text>IndicatorScreen</Text>
      <View style={styles.ball}>
        <DotIndicator color="pink" interval={1400} />
        <DotIndicator color="pink" />
        <DotIndicator color="pink" scaleEnabled={true} />
      </View>
      <View style={styles.ball}>
        <BallIndicator color="pink" dotSize={4} size={30} />
        <BallIndicator color="pink" />
        <BallIndicator color="pink" dotSize={14} />
      </View>
    </View>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    backgroundColor: "black",
  },
  rect: {
    flex: 1,
    alignItems: "center",
    justifyContent: "center",
    flexDirection: "row",
  },
  ball: {
    flex: 1,
    flexDirection: "row",
  },
});

Status

If anyone is interested in adding new indicators, I appreciate the PR 🙌

Why I created this library

There is an awesome indicators library (react-native-indicators) from a long time ago. But, as Animated from react-native contact with JS thread when animation is finished, it makes InteractionManager.runAfterInteraction never run...

I was using the awesome library (react-native-indicators), until use it with InteractionManager.runAfterInteraction().

As Animated from react-native contact with JS thread when animation is finished, InteractionManager.runAfterInteraction never runs... I didn't understand for a while, and I switch to ActivityIndicator at that moment.

After that, I got to know Can it be done in React Native? and I started to think "CAN IT BE DONE? by using react-native-reanimated"
