react-native-sectioned-multi-select
A multi (or single) select component with support for sub categories, search, chips. It's intended for long-ish lists, as it opens in a Modal (I might make this optional in the future).
This is based on https://github.com/toystars/react-native-multiple-select. The problems I had were that I needed it to be in a modal, because of nested ScrollViews not working on Android, and I needed to display categories with sub-categories.
Caveats
- Currently all ids must be unique. So if you're pulling data from multiple sources, be aware that id clashes will cause (major) problems i.e both items with the same id will get selected. Looking for contributors for this - would require a bit of a refactor (see #33).
- There is no ajax support.

Usage
You can install this package with the following command:
npm i react-native-sectioned-multi-select
or yarn add react-native-sectioned-multi-select
Icons
The library uses icon names from react-native-vector-icons/MaterialIcons
, however, it no longer imports the react-native-vector-icons
library.
You should install react-native-vector-icons yourself, then pass the icon to the IconRenderer
prop.
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/MaterialIcons`
...
<SectionedMultiSelect IconRenderer={Icon} />
Similarly, for Expo environments you can use:
import {MaterialIcons} from '@expo/vector-icons';
...
<SectionedMultiSelect IconRenderer={MaterialIcons} />
If you prefer to use your own icon images or icon font, the IconRenderer
prop can be used to replace the icons used.
See an example here: https://github.com/renrizzolo/react-native-sectioned-multi-select/blob/9c5f71852aef7a7ac03e7761d5dd810cd2ccef5d/exampleapp/App.js#L322-L397 (note the switch, you can refer to this to know what to map icon names to e.g if you're just passing in a different RN Vector Icons font).
icons prop
You can now pass your own icons
object to map the properties to a different icon library or your own IconRenderer
component.
For each of these keys, the IconRenderer
will be called with the corresponding name
and size
props.
All properties are spread to the IconRenderer
, so you can override style or other props your icon component might use.
Here is the default icons object, which uses Material Icons names.
icons: {
search: {
name: 'search', // search input
size: 24
},
arrowUp: {
name: 'keyboard-arrow-up', // dropdown toggle
size: 22
},
arrowDown: {
name: 'keyboard-arrow-down', // dropdown toggle
size: 22
},
selectArrowDown: {
name: 'keyboard-arrow-down', // select
size: 24
},
close: {
name: 'close', // chip close
size: 16
},
check: {
name: 'check', // selected item
size: 16
},
cancel: {
name: 'cancel', // cancel button
size: 18
}
}
Required props:
items
| arrayuniqueKey
| stringonSelectedItemsChange
| functionIconRenderer
| function or object
Basic Example
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { View } from 'react-native';
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/MaterialIcons'
import SectionedMultiSelect from 'react-native-sectioned-multi-select';
const items = [
// this is the parent or 'item'
{
name: 'Fruits',
id: 0,
// these are the children or 'sub items'
children: [
{
name: 'Apple',
id: 10,
},
{
name: 'Strawberry',
id: 17,
},
{
name: 'Pineapple',
id: 13,
},
{
name: 'Banana',
id: 14,
},
{
name: 'Watermelon',
id: 15,
},
{
name: 'Kiwi fruit',
id: 16,
},
],
},
{
// next parent item
...
},
];
export default class App extends Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
selectedItems: [],
};
}
onSelectedItemsChange = (selectedItems) => {
this.setState({ selectedItems });
};
render() {
return (
<View>
<SectionedMultiSelect
items={items}
IconRenderer={Icon}
uniqueKey="id"
subKey="children"
selectText="Choose some things..."
showDropDowns={true}
onSelectedItemsChange={this.onSelectedItemsChange}
selectedItems={this.state.selectedItems}
/>
</View>
);
}
}
Refs / internal methods
You can do some programatic operations by setting up a ref to the component and accessing its internal methods:
// function component
import React, { useRef } from 'react'
const App = () => {
const ref = useRef(null)
return (
<SectionedMultiSelect
...
ref={ref}
/>
)
}
// class component
<SectionedMultiSelect
...
ref={SectionedMultiSelect => this.SectionedMultiSelect = SectionedMultiSelect}
/>
Remove all items:
// function component
onPress={() => ref && ref.current && ref.current._removeAllItems()}
// class component
onPress={() => this.SectionedMultiSelect._removeAllItems()}
Toggle the modal:
// function component
onPress={() => ref && ref.current && ref.current._toggleSelector()}
// class component
onPress={() => this.SectionedMultiSelect._toggleSelector()}
Recipes
See Recipes for more detailed usage examples / customizations.
Items
Your items should have a uniqueKey
(default: 'id') and a displayKey
(default: 'name').
Any child items of that item should be in subKey
, and they will have uniqueKey
and displayKey
properties. As you can see from the example above, my items all have a unique id
property and the child items is an array within the subKey
property.
Sub categories are optional, there's no need to have subKey
items if you don't want to.
You can also pass in extra options to individual items:
disabled: true
- the item will be disabled- Icons: the component prop
iconKey
is the name of the property that individual item icons will be derived from. E.gicon: {uri: ...}
. See full example here
