Installation

npm install react-native-navbar

Warning! From version 0.7.1 this package require react-native version 0.8 or higher!

Usage example

var NavigationBar = require('react-native-navbar');

var ExampleProject = React.createClass({

  renderScene: function(route, navigator) {
    var Component = route.component;
    var navBar = route.navigationBar;

    if (navBar) {
      navBar = React.addons.cloneWithProps(navBar, {
        navigator: navigator,
        route: route
      });
    }

    return (
      <View style={styles.navigator}>
        {navBar}
        <Component navigator={navigator} route={route} />
      </View>
    );
  },

  render: function() {
    return (
      <Navigator
        style={styles.navigator}
        renderScene={this.renderScene}
        initialRoute={{
          component: InitialView,
          navigationBar: <NavigationBar title="Initial View"/>
        }}
      />
    );
  }
});

Custom elements

In the cases when you need some extra customization (like replacing title by image, adding extra buttons, etc), you can use custom components. Every custom component will receive navigator and route property from renderScene method.

Custom buttons

There are some cases when you need to use custom buttons and it's not hard at all:

var CustomPrevButton = require('./CustomPrevButton');
var CustomNextButton = require('./CustomNextButton');

var navigationBar = (
  <NavigationBar
    title="Custom buttons"
    customPrev={<CustomPrevButton/>}
    customNext={<CustomNextButton/>}
  />
);

In every button you'll receive a navigator property.

Custom title

If for some reason you want to customize a title (add image or whatever), you can use customTitle prop:

var CustomTitle = require('./CustomTitle');

var navigationBar = <NavigationBar customTitle={<CustomTitle />} />;

Component props

• title (String) - Title of the navbar
• titleColor (String) - Color of the navbar title (hex/rgb(a))
• backgroundStyle (Object) - Style that would be applied to navbar background component. Navbar container is wrapped by background container to allow customize those layers separately. In case you need to make this view transparent or change background color - this option for you

• buttonsColor (String) - Color of the buttons
• onPrev (Function (navigator, route)) - Callback on left navbar button click
