react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view

A ScrollView component that handles keyboard appearance and automatically scrolls to focused TextInput.

Supported versions

v0.4.0 requires RN>=0.48
v0.2.0 requires RN>=0.32.0.
v0.1.2 requires RN>=0.27.2 but you should use 0.2.0 in order to make it work with multiple scroll views.
v0.0.7 requires react-native>=0.25.0.
Use v0.0.6 for older RN versions.

Installation

Installation can be done through npm or yarn:

npm i react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view --save

yarn add react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view

Usage

You can use the KeyboardAwareScrollView, KeyboardAwareSectionList or the KeyboardAwareFlatList components. They accept ScrollView, SectionList and FlatList default props respectively and implement a custom high order component called KeyboardAwareHOC to handle keyboard appearance. The high order component is also available if you want to use it in any other component.

Import react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view and wrap your content inside it:

import { KeyboardAwareScrollView } from 'react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view'

<KeyboardAwareScrollView>
  <View>
    <TextInput />
  </View>
</KeyboardAwareScrollView>

Auto-scroll in `TextInput` fields

As of v0.1.0, the component auto scrolls to the focused TextInput 😎. For versions v0.0.7 and older you can do the following.

Programatically scroll to any `TextInput`

In order to scroll to any TextInput field, you can use the built-in method scrollToFocusedInput. Example:

_scrollToInput (reactNode: any) {
  // Add a 'scroll' ref to your ScrollView
  this.scroll.props.scrollToFocusedInput(reactNode)
}

<KeyboardAwareScrollView
  innerRef={ref => {
    this.scroll = ref
  }}>
  <View>
    <TextInput
      onFocus={(event: Event) => {
        // `bind` the function if you're using ES6 classes
        this._scrollToInput(ReactNative.findNodeHandle(event.target))
      }}
    />
  </View>
</KeyboardAwareScrollView>

Programatically scroll to any position

There's another built-in function that lets you programatically scroll to any position of the scroll view:

this.scroll.props.scrollToPosition(0, 0)

Register to keyboard events

You can register to ScrollViewResponder events onKeyboardWillShow and onKeyboardWillHide:

<KeyboardAwareScrollView
  onKeyboardWillShow={(frames: Object) => {
    console.log('Keyboard event', frames)
  }}>
  <View>
    <TextInput />
  </View>
</KeyboardAwareScrollView>

Android Support

First, Android natively has this feature, you can easily enable it by setting windowSoftInputMode in AndroidManifest.xml. Check here.

But if you want to use feature like extraHeight, you need to enable Android Support with the following steps:

Make sure you are using react-native 0.46 or above.
Set windowSoftInputMode to adjustPan in AndroidManifest.xml.
Set enableOnAndroid property to true.

Android Support is not perfect, here is the supported list:

Prop	Android Support
`viewIsInsideTabBar`	Yes
`resetScrollToCoords`	Yes
`enableAutomaticScroll`	Yes
`extraHeight`	Yes
`extraScrollHeight`	Yes
`enableResetScrollToCoords`	Yes
`keyboardOpeningTime`	No

API

Props

All the ScrollView/FlatList props will be passed.

Prop	Type	Description
`innerRef`	`Function`	Catch the reference of the component.
`viewIsInsideTabBar`	`boolean`	Adds an extra offset that represents the `TabBarIOS` height.
`resetScrollToCoords`	`Object: {x: number, y: number}`	Coordinates that will be used to reset the scroll when the keyboard hides.
`enableAutomaticScroll`	`boolean`	When focus in `TextInput` will scroll the position, default is enabled.
`extraHeight`	`number`	Adds an extra offset when focusing the `TextInput`s.
`extraScrollHeight`	`number`	Adds an extra offset to the keyboard. Useful if you want to stick elements above the keyboard.
`enableResetScrollToCoords`	`boolean`	Lets the user enable or disable automatic resetScrollToCoords.
`keyboardOpeningTime`	`number`	Sets the delay time before scrolling to new position, default is 250
`enableOnAndroid`	`boolean`	Enable Android Support

Methods

Use innerRef to get the component reference and use this.scrollRef.props to access these methods.

Method	Parameter	Description
`getScrollResponder`	`void`	Get `ScrollResponder`
`scrollToPosition`	`x: number, y: number, animated: bool = true`	Scroll to specific position with or without animation.
`scrollToEnd`	`animated?: bool = true`	Scroll to end with or without animation.
`scrollIntoView`	`element: React.Element<*>, options: { getScrollPosition: ?(parentLayout, childLayout, contentOffset) => { x: number, y: number, animated: boolean } }`	Scrolls an element inside a KeyboardAwareScrollView into view.

Using high order component

Enabling any component to be keyboard-aware is very easy. Take a look at the code of KeyboardAwareFlatList:

/* @flow */

import { FlatList } from 'react-native'
import listenToKeyboardEvents from './KeyboardAwareHOC'

export default listenToKeyboardEvents(FlatList)

The HOC can also be configured. Sometimes it's more convenient to provide a static config than configuring the behavior with props. This HOC config can be overriden with props.

/* @flow */

import { FlatList } from 'react-native'
import listenToKeyboardEvents from './KeyboardAwareHOC'

const config = {
  enableOnAndroid: true,
  enableAutomaticScroll: true
}

export default listenToKeyboardEvents(config)(FlatList)

The available config options are:

{
  enableOnAndroid: boolean,
  contentContainerStyle: ?Object,
  enableAutomaticScroll: boolean,
  extraHeight: number,
  extraScrollHeight: number,
  enableResetScrollToCoords: boolean,
  keyboardOpeningTime: number,
  viewIsInsideTabBar: boolean,
  refPropName: string,
  extractNativeRef: Function
}
