rn-highlight-words v1.1.0

RN Highlight Words

React Native component used to highlight words within a larger body of text. This is a port of react-highlight-words.

Changelog

• OnPress event added for Normal/Highlighted text

Installation

Using npm:

npm i --save rn-highlight-words

Usage

To use it, just provide it with an array of search terms and a body of text to highlight:

import Highlighter from "rn-highlight-words";

<Highlighter
    highlightStyle={{ backgroundColor: "yellow" }}
    searchWords={["and", "or", "the"]}
    textToHighlight="The dog is chasing the cat. Or perhaps they are just playing?"
    onPressNormalText={() => console.log("normal text is clickeddd!")}
    onPressHighlightedText={() => console.log("highlighted text is clickeddd!")}
/>;

And the Highlighter component will highlight all occurrences of search terms within the text:

And if you want to get highlighted text that clicked, get in onPressHighlightedText as

onPressHighlightedText = {text => console.log("highlighted text that click: " + text)}
