Example

An example has been provided in example/index.android.js

Image dimensions

Due to the constrained system resources that mobile devices have, loading large images as a Bitmap can cause out of memory errors.

To prevent OOM errors, supply dimensions to the component. When you specify dimensions the component will automatically calculate the sample size and reduce the Bitmap size to the exact dimensions.

If not specified, the original image size will be loaded.

Props

Prop Type Required Description Default
imageUrl string Required The URL of the image that the component should display N/A
dimensions object Optional The dimensions of the image { width: 0, height: 0 }
inputType number Optional The input type for the image. One of GoogleVRPanorama.inputType.mono, GoogleVRPanorama.inputType.stereo GoogleVRPanorama.inputType.mono

Callback methods

| Prop | Properties | Description | |---|---|---|---|---| | onImageLoaded | undefined | Fired when the image has successfully loaded | | onImageLoadingFailed | undefined | Fired when the image failed to load |
