Reinput

A React Native TextInput with material style 😎

Installation

npm install --save reinput

yarn add reinput

Motivation

Styling react-native inputs can be cumbersome. And most of them heavily relies onto the material design patterns. This style layer over the regular TextInput paves the way towards and easier and faster development.

We also expose a ReinputButton. Check the docs ;)

Demo

Wanna try before? Here's an interactive Expo snack. Otherwise, you can clone the repo and run the /example folder. It's the same, tho.

Usage

import Reinput from "reinput"

const Input = () => (
  <View>
    <Reinput label="name" />
    <Reinput error="Handles error" />
    <Reinput label="name" value="control value from outside" />
    <Reinput label="name" defaultValue="initial value" />
    <Reinput label="name" onChangeText={/* any TextInput prop */} />
  </View>
)

Props

Input

| Name | Type | Default | | :------------------ | :--------------- | :-------- | | activeColor | String | | color | String | #000000 | | fontFamily | String | | fontSize | Number | 15 | | fontWeight | String or Number | normal | | height | Number | 64 | | marginBottom | Number | 8 | | marginLeft | Number | | marginRight | Number | | marginTop | Number | | maxHeight | Number | | minHeight | Number | | onBlur | Function | | onChangeText | Function | | onContentSizeChange | Function | | onFocus | Function | | paddingBottom | Number | 8 | | paddingLeft | Number | 0 | | paddingRight | Number | 0 | | paddingTop | Number | 20 | | register | Function | noop | | textAlign | String | left |

• Register exposes the TextInput ref component out

Label

| name | type | default | | :--------------- | :----- | :-------- | | label | String | | labelActiveColor | String | #3f51b5 | | labelActiveScale | Number | 0.8 | | labelActiveTop | Number | -18 | | labelColor | String | #757575 | | labelDuration | Number | 200 |

Icon

| Name | Type | Default | | :---------- | :------ | :------ | | icon | Element | | iconOverlay | Element |

Placeholder

| Name | Type | Default | | :-------------------- | :------ | :-------- | | placeholder | String | | placeholderColor | String | #757575 | | placeholderVisibility | boolean | undefined | null |

How placeholderVisibility works?

{
    Always: 1,
    Never: null,
    OnFocus: true,
    OnBlur: false,
}

Underline

| Name | Type | Default | | :-------------------- | :----- | :-------- | | underlineActiveColor | String | #3f51b5 | | underlineActiveHeight | Number | 2 | | underlineColor | String | #757575 | | underlineDuration | Number | 200 | | underlineHeight | Number | 1 |

Error

| Name | Type | Default | | :----------------------- | :-------- | :-------- | | error | String | | errorColor | String | #fc1f4a | | errorStyle | TextStyle | | errorStyle.fontSize | Number | 12 | | errorStyle.paddingTop | Number | 4 | | errorStyle.paddingBottom | Number | 4 |

And also all the TextInput properties will work.

ReinputButton

We also expose a component that looks like an Input but it's a button so accepts onPress prop. We do following the material design guidelines.

Props are the same as the Input but it also accepts an onPress and doesn't have hooks for focus/blur events.

import { ReinputButton } from "reinput"

const Input = () => (
  <ReinputButton
    label="This is not an Input"
    value="If there is no value it shows the label as placeholder"
    onPress={/* whatever callback */}
  />
)

Style patterns are mainly based on Material Design; properly adapted for iOS.
