Installation

First of all, make sure you're using npm3+ and babel6 for version 1.1.1 or above.

npm i react-native-navbar --save

Examples

• Basic
• Custom Elements
• Routing

Getting started

First of all, I assume you've already made a react-native project by running react-native init project-name and installed react-native-navbar component by npm.

In your index.ios.js file require react-native-navbar component:

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

or, if you use ES2015 syntax:

import NavigationBar from 'react-native-navbar';

Inside your component's render method, use NavigationBar:

render: function() {
  var rightButtonConfig = {
    title: 'Next',
    handler: function onNext() {
      alert('hello!');
    }
  };

  var titleConfig = {
    title: 'Hello, world',
  };

  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1, }}>
      <NavigationBar
        title={titleConfig}
        rightButton={rightButtonConfig} />
    </View>
  );
}

or, if you use ES2015:

render() {
  const rightButtonConfig = {
    title: 'Next',
    handler: () => alert('hello!'),
  };

  const titleConfig = {
    title: 'Hello, world',
  };

  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1, }}>
      <NavigationBar
        title={titleConfig}
        rightButton={rightButtonConfig} />
    </View>
  );
}

That's it, you're ready to go!

Usage with Webpack

This module uses JSX syntax and requires a compiler such as babel. React Native's packager runs this automatically but if you use Webpack be sure to compile this module from your dependencies

loaders: [{
  test: /\.js$/,
   include: [
     path.resolve(__dirname, "src"),
     path.resolve(__dirname, "node_modules/react-native-navbar")
   ],
  loader: 'babel',
  query: { stage: 0, plugins: [] }
}]
