Basic usage

By design, React Mobile Picker is a controlled component, which means the selected items of the rendered element will always reflect the value prop. Every time you want to change the selected items, just modify the value prop.

import { useState } from 'react'
import Picker from 'react-mobile-picker'

const selections = {
  title: ['Mr.', 'Mrs.', 'Ms.', 'Dr.'],
  firstName: ['John', 'Micheal', 'Elizabeth'],
  lastName: ['Lennon', 'Jackson', 'Jordan', 'Legend', 'Taylor']
}

function MyPicker() {
  const [pickerValue, setPickerValue] = useState({
    title: 'Mr.',
    firstName: 'Micheal',
    lastName: 'Jordan'
  })

  return (
    <Picker value={pickerValue} onChange={setPickerValue}>
      {Object.keys(selections).map(name => (
        <Picker.Column key={name} name={name}>
          {selections[name].map(option => (
            <Picker.Item key={option} value={option}>
              {option}
            </Picker.Item>
          ))}
        </Picker.Column>
      ))}
    </Picker>
  )
}

Using render props

Each Picker.Item component exposes a selected state that can be used to customize the appearance of the item. This is called the render props technique.

import { useState } from 'react'
import Picker from 'react-mobile-picker'

function MyPicker() {
  const [pickerValue, setPickerValue] = useState({
    name1: 'item1',
    /* ... */
  })

  return (
    <Picker value={pickerValue} onChange={setPickerValue}>
      <Picker.Column name="name1">
        <Picker.Item value="item1">
          {({ selected }) => (
            /* Use the `selected` state to conditionally style the selected item */
            <div style={{ color: selected ? 'red' : 'black' }}>
              Item 1
            </div>
          )}
        </Picker.Item>
        {/* ... */}
      </Picker.Column>
      {/* ... */}
    </Picker>
  )
}

Support wheel scrolling

React Mobile Picker is designed to be used on mobile devices, but it can also support wheel scrolling on desktop browsers. To enable this feature, you can set the wheelMode prop to either 'natural' or 'normal'.

import { useState } from 'react'
import Picker from 'react-mobile-picker'

function MyPicker() {
  const [pickerValue, setPickerValue] = useState({
    name1: 'item1',
    /* ... */
  })

  return (
    <Picker value={pickerValue} onChange={setPickerValue} wheelMode="natural">
      {/* ... */}
    </Picker>
  )
}
