Technically, it uses Animated.View and will animate a translateY value to avoid the keyboard. KeyboardAvodingView is highly recommended. But in some rare case when KeyboardAvodingView not working, try this Spacer.

Demo

See demo on Expo Snack

I. Installation

npm install --save react-native-spacer

II. How to use

Class Spacer is a wrapper using Animated.View. For usage, see official documentation Animated and View

1. Import library

import Spacer from 'react-native-spacer';

2. Wrap component into Spacer

<Spacer spaceMargin={20}>
    {/* Components that need to float when keyboard showing */}
</Spacer>

III. Properties

| Property Name | Type | Default Value | Definition | | ------------- | -------- | ------------- |----------- | | spaceMargin | number | 0 | Component's margin above the keyboard when it displayed | | enabled | bool | true | Set to false to disable Spacer | backgroundColor | string | #fffffff7 | Spacer component background color | animationDuration | number | 300 | Duration of the view animation

Feel free to have any question, file an issue, or contributing to the module.
