Cycle.js driver that uses React Native to render
- Provides a driver factory
makeReactNativeDriver
- Contains hyperscript helper functions, such as
View()
,Text()
, etc
npm install @cycle/react-native
import xs from 'xstream';
import {run} from '@cycle/run';
import {makeReactNativeDriver, TouchableOpacity, View, Text} from '@cycle/react-native';
function main(sources) {
const inc = Symbol();
const inc$ = sources.react.select(inc).events('click');
const count$ = inc$.fold(count => count + 1, 0);
const elem$ = count$.map(i =>
TouchableOpacity(inc, [
View([
Text(`Counter: ${i}`),
])
]),
);
return {
react: elem$,
};
}
run(main, {
react: makeReactNativeDriver('MyApp'),
});
Start by installing React Native prerequisites (XCode, react-native-cli, watchman).
Then create a React Native project using the CLI.
When the project is set up, npm install @cycle/react-native
, @cycle/run
, and a stream library like xstream
, then replace the index.js with something that looks like the example code in this readme.
Returns a driver that uses React Native to render your Cycle.js app in the native application known by the string appKey
.
Import hyperscript helpers such as View
, Text
, TouchableOpacity
, etc to create React elements to represent the respective built-in native components: <View>
, <Text>
, <TouchableOpacity>
, etc.
The basic usage is View(props, children)
, but some variations and shortcuts are allowed:
View()
becomes<View/>
View(props)
becomes<View {...props}></View>
Text('text content')
becomes<Text>text content</Text>
View([child1, child2])
Text(props, 'text content')
View(props, [child1, child2])
- etc
There are also shortcuts for (MVI) intent selectors:
Touchable(someSymbol)
becomesh(Touchable, {sel: someSymbol})
Touchable(sym, props)
becomesh(Touchable, {sel: sym, ...props})
Text('myselector', 'text content')
Touchable('inc', [child])
Touchable('inc', propsObject, [child])
- etc
For non-built-in components (e.g. third party) components, you can use h(ThirdPartyComponent)
with h
from @cycle/react
or you can build a helper using makeHelper(ThirdPartyComponent)
with makeHelper
from @cycle/react-native
.
This library only covers React components in React Native and View-related rendering. For other native APIs in React Native, use drivers specifically built for those. See the list below:
- cycle-native-alert
- cycle-native-asyncstorage
- cycle-native-android-local-notification
- cycle-native-clipboard
- cycle-native-keyboard
- cycle-native-linking
- cycle-native-share
- cycle-native-toastandroid
- (please build more of these and add them here!)
