Installation

npm: npm i react-native-screens-swiper
yarn: yarn add react-native-screens-swiper

Basic usage

import Swiper from "react-native-screens-swiper";
import FirstScreen from "./FirstScreen";
import SecondScreen from "./SecondScreen";

export default function YourComponent() {
    /**
     * Create an array with your screens' data - title, component and additional props.
     * Title is a string to be put inside of pill.
     * Props is an object with additional data for a particular screen.
     * Component can be either React component, render function or JSX element.
     * If it is a component or function, it will receive above-mentioned props and additional 'index' props
     */
    const data = [
        {
            tabLabel: 'Valid component in form of JSX element',
            component: <FirstScreen/>,
        },
        {
            tabLabel: 'Valid component in form of React component',
            component: SecondScreen,
            props: {}, // (optional) additional props
        },
        {
            tabLabel: 'Valid component in form of render function',
            component: ({index, ...props}) => {
                return null;
            },
            props: {}, // (optional) additional props
        },
    ];

    return (
        <Swiper
            data={data}
            isStaticPills={true}
            style={styles}
            // FlatList props
        />
    );
}

// more about styling below
const styles = {};

Custom styling

export default function App() {
    return (
        <Swiper 
            data={data}
            style={styles}
        />
    );
}

const styles = {
    // [View] Pills container
    pillContainer: {},

    // [View] Static pills container
    staticPillsContainer: {},

    // [View] Button
    pillButton: {},

    // [View] Active button
    pillActive: {},
    
    // [Text] Button's text
    pillLabel: {},
    
    // [Text] Active button's text
    activeLabel: {},
    
    // [View] Border of active pill (:warning: opacity will override animation's opacity)
    borderActive: {},
    
    // [View] Overflow container for pills container
    pillsOverflow: {
       // Needed if you want to add only bottom shadow
       // Just add the shadow for pillContainer and here add the overflow: 'hidden', and height 
    }
};

Example for scrollable pills

const styles = { pillButton: { backgroundColor: 'white', }, pillActive: { backgroundColor: 'yellow', }, pillLabel: { color: 'gray', }, activeLabel: { color: 'white', }, };

Example for static pills

const styles = { borderActive: { borderColor: 'pink', }, pillLabel: { color: 'gray', }, activeLabel: { color: '#ba2d65', }, };

Sticky header and children

You can use sticky header only when scrollableContainer={true} so you need to pass it first. And after adding stickyHeaderEnabled={true} and stickyHeaderIndex={1} you can see the magic !

<Swiper data={Screens} style={styles} isStaticPills={true} stickyHeaderEnabled={true} scrollableContainer={true} stickyHeaderIndex={1} > <View style={{ height: 350, backgroundColor: 'white', }} > // other childrens here </View> </Swiper>
