API
ResponsiveScalabilityProvider
You should to add ResponsiveScalabilityProvider
in your app root component.
Props
config
: Define your base device's dimensions, orientation, and breakpoints.
| Prop | Type | Default |
| --------------- | -------- | ---------------------------------------------------: |
| baseHeight | number
| 430
|
| baseWidth | number
| 932
|
| baseOrientation | string
| 'portrait'
|
| breakpoints | object
| { sm: 640, md: 940, lg: undefined, xl: undefined }
|
Example
import React from 'React';
import { SafeAreaProvider } from 'react-native-safe-area-context';
import {
IResponsiveScalabilityConfig,
ResponsiveScalabilityProvider,
} from 'react-native-responsive-scalability';
const config: IResponsiveScalabilityConfig = {
// # Default device: iPhone 14 Pro Max.
// baseWidth: 430,
// baseHeight: 932,
// # "landscape" option can be selected. Default base orientation is "portrait".
// baseOrientation: 'portrait',
breakpoints: {
// # Default breakpoints
// sm: 640,
// md: 940,
lg: 1280,
xl: 1536,
},
};
export const App = () => {
return (
<SafeAreaProvider>
<ResponsiveScalabilityProvider config={config}>
...
</ResponsiveScalabilityProvider>
</SafeAreaProvider>
);
};
useOrientation
Use useOrientation
hook to retrieve current orientation of the device.
Example
import React from 'react';
import { useOrientation } from 'react-native-responsive-scalability';
export const Home = () => {
const orientation = useOrientation();
const isPortrait = orientation === 'portrait';
return <></>;
};
useResponsiveScalability
Use useResponsiveScalability
hook to retrieve baseHeight
, baseWidth
, baseOrientation
, and breakpoints
values.
Example
import React from 'react';
import { FlatList } from 'react-native';
import { useSafeAreaFrame } from 'react-native-safe-area-context';
import { useResponsiveScalability } from 'react-native-responsive-scalability';
export const Home = () => {
const { width } = useSafeAreaFrame();
const { baseHeight, baseWidth, baseOrientation, breakpoints } =
useResponsiveScalability();
let numColumns = 1;
if (width >= breakpoints.sm) numColumns = 2;
return (
<FlatList
key={`flatlist-column-${numColumns}`}
numColumns={numColumns}
...
/>
);
};
useSafeAreaWindow
The useSafeAreaWindow
hook provides the device's window dimensions, including height
and width
. These values are calculated by subtracting the height of the status bar and the height of the bottom navigation bar, depending on the current orientation of the device.
Example
import React from 'react';
import { useSafeAreaWindow } from 'react-native-responsive-scalability';
export const Home = () => {
const { height, width } = useSafeAreaWindow();
return <></>;
};
useScale
The useScale
hook returns scale utility functions scaleByHeight
and scaleByWidth
. The scaleByHeight
function is NOT aware of orientation changes; it calculates window height based on the baseOrientation
value and uses it for calculating scale changes.
Example
import React from 'react';
import { useScale } from 'react-native-responsive-scalability';
const size = 16;
export const Home = () => {
const { scaleByHeight, scaleByWidth } = useScale();
console.log(`scaleByHeight(${size}) =`, scaleByHeight(size));
console.log(`scaleByWidth(${size}) =`, scaleByWidth(size));
return <></>;
};
On a iPhone 14 Pro Max device/simulator with default config values.
Portrait Mode
scaleByHeight(16) = 16 scaleByWidth(16) = 16
Landscape Mode
scaleByHeight(16) = 16 scaleByWidth(16) = 17.333333333333332
useStyle
Use useStyle
hook to memoize inline styles.
Example
import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text as RNText } from 'react-native';
import { useScale, useStyle } from 'react-native-responsive-scalability';
export const Text = () => {
const { scaleByWidth } = useScale();
return (
<RNText
style={useStyle(
() => [styles.text, { fontSize: scaleByWidth(16) }],
[scaleByWidth],
)}
>
React Native Responsive Scalability
</RNText>
);
};
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
text: { color: 'red' },
});
