I've come across with those beautiful text inputs created and blogged by Codrops and wanted to port them to react-native. Some of those text fields are now ready to use in iOS and android thanks to react-native.
There is also a native iOS library called TextFieldEffects which has built some of them in Swift.
The latest version of this project needs react-native >= 0.55(March 2018 release) due to createRef usage. Go with the latest version:
$ yarn add react-native-textinput-effects-pr
or
$ npm install react-native-textinput-effects-pr --save
You also need to install react-native-vector-icons if you'd like to use a TextInputEffect component with an icon. Please check out Installation section on that project.
Prop | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
label |
String | Displayed as placeholder string of the input. |
style |
View Style Object | Applied to the root container of the input. |
labelStyle |
View Style Object | Applied to the container of the label view. |
inputStyle |
Text Style Object | Applied to the TextInput component. |
value |
String | This value will be applied to the TextInput and change it's state on every render. Use this prop if you want a Controlled Component. |
defaultValue |
String | If you want to initialize the component with a non-empty value, you can supply a defaultValue prop. This prop creates an Uncontrolled Component and is only used during initial render. |
You can also use default TextInput Props. They'll be passed into TextInput component. E.g., use TextInput
's onChange
prop to be notified on text changes.
<Sae
onChangeText={(text) => { this.setState({textValue: text}) }
/>
This component needs Icon
component from react-native-vector-icons
to operate with icons. You should import it before creating a TextInputEffects component.
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome';
Prop | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
iconClass |
Object | The Icon component class you've imported from react-native-vector-icons. |
iconName |
String | Name of the icon that is passed to Icon component. |
iconColor |
String | Applied to the Icon component. |
iconSize |
Number | Applied to the Icon component. |
See TextInputEffectsExample.js file.
Follow those steps to run the example:
- Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/halilb/react-native-textinput-effects && cd react-native-textinput-effects/Example
- Install dependencies `npm install``
- Follow official instructions to run the example project in a simulator or device.

import FontAwesomeIcon from "react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome";
import { Sae } from "react-native-textinput-effects";
const saeInput = (
<Sae
label={"Email Address"}
iconClass={FontAwesomeIcon}
iconName={"pencil"}
iconColor={"white"}
inputPadding={16}
labelHeight={24}
// active border height
borderHeight={2}
// TextInput props
autoCapitalize={"none"}
autoCorrect={false}
/>
);
import FontAwesomeIcon from "react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome";
import { Fumi } from "react-native-textinput-effects";
const fumiInput = (
<Fumi

Kohana supports Animated Native Driver. You can use native driver by passing useNativeDriver
.
import MaterialsIcon from "react-native-vector-icons/MaterialIcons";
import { Kohana } from "react-native-textinput-effects";
const kohanaInput = (
<Kohana
style={{ backgroundColor: "#f9f5ed" }}
label={"Line"}
iconClass={MaterialsIcon}
iconName={"directions-bus"}
iconColor={"#f4d29a"}
inputPadding={16}
labelStyle={{ color: "#91627b" }}
inputStyle={{ color: "#91627b" }}
labelContainerStyle={{ padding: 20 }}
iconContainerStyle={{ padding: 20 }}
useNativeDriver
/>
);
import FontAwesomeIcon from "react-native-vector-icons/FontAwesome";
import { Makiko } from "react-native-textinput-effects";
const makikoInput = (
<Makiko
label={"Comment"}
iconClass={FontAwesomeIcon}
iconName={"comment"}
iconColor={"white"}
inputPadding={16}
inputStyle={{ color: "#db786d" }}
/>
);
Note: Icon component expands and covers the input. So, the icon should not have any blank spaces for the animation experience. This is the limitation for Makiko.
