A modified React Native View
component that animates it's backgroundColor
when color
prop changes. Works on iOS & Android.
npm install react-native-animated-background-color-view --save
Import AnimatedBackgroundColorView component
import { AnimatedBackgroundColorView } from 'react-native-animated-background-color-view';
Use as follows:
<AnimatedBackgroundColorView color='#00aced' />
Each time the color
prop value changes the backgroundColor
will use the React Native timing animation to animate from the previous value to the current value.
You can also specifiy an initial color for the background color to animate from when the component mounts:
<AnimatedBackgroundColorView
color='#00aced'
initialColor='red'
/>
On mount the component backgroundColor
will be blue
and then animate to #00aced
.
The AnimatedBackgroundColorView
component works just like the standard React Native View
component. AnimatedBackgroundColorView
is designed to be nested inside other View
components or other AnimatedBackgroundColorView
components and can have 0 to many children of any type.
class AnimatedBackgroundColorViewWithText extends Component {
render() {
return (
<AnimatedBackgroundColorView
color='#00aced'
initialColor='red'
style={{ flex: 1 }}
>
<Text>Hello, world!</Text>
</AnimatedBackgroundColorView>
);
}
}
You can configure AnimatedBackgroundColorView
by passing the following props:
prop | type/valid values | default | description |
---|---|---|---|
color | string | '#00aced' |
the color value to which the component backgroundColor will animate |
delay | number | 0 |
the length in milliseconds the component will wait before animating to the next color |
duration | number | 2400 |
the length in milliseconds the timing animation will last |
easing | React Native Easing function | Easing.out(Easing.exp) |
the easing function to define animation curve |
initialColor | string | undefined |
the color value from which the component backgroundColor will animate on mount |
style | React Native style object | undefined |
additional styles applied to the component |
