I'm learning React Native by building an app that takes a picture and shows the image in a gallery.
I'm using react-native-vision to take the photo and react-native-fs to access the temporary file as suggested in this answer and use it as the uri of <Image/>
However, the View that should display a list of </Image> it's showing a blank space
This is my code:
// saves photo on Array and closes the Camera View
const onPressButton = async () => {
console.log(cameraRef.current);
console.log(123);
const photo = await cameraRef.current.takePhoto({
flash: 'off',
qualityPrioritization: 'speed',
});
console.log(photo);
setPhotos([...photos, photo]);
setShowCamera(false);
return;
};
// how I'm trying to render the photos
{photos && photos.length > 0 && (
<View style={{width: '50%', height: '50%'}}>
{photos.map((photo, index) => (
<View key={index}>
{console.log('file://' + DocumentDirectoryPath + photo.path)}
<Image style={{maxWidth: 10, maxHeight: 20}} source={{uri: 'file://' + DocumentDirectoryPath + photo.path}} />
</View>
))}
</View>
)}
This is how it looks:
Is there something wrong with my code?
Thanks for the help.
There are 2 potential errors in your source code.
Photo taken by react-native-vision is chached. (photo.path look something like this: /data/user/0/your.app/cache/mrousavy6472....jpg) So do not use DocumentDirectoryPath, use just source={{uri: 'file://' + photo.path}}
Second potential error is Your photo is not shown because he is hidden from view. Try to set style like this: style={{width: '100%', height: '100%'}}
So in final look like this:
<Image style={{width: '100%', height: '100%'}} source={{uri: 'file://' + photo.path}} />
I am using react-native-svg with react-native-svg-transformer for rendering SVGs in our app. All SVGs are rendering correctly except this one SVG which just cuts off at its right side. This is the rendered SVG (The right side of the svg is cutoff):
and this is the original svg which I want to render as it is:
I don't know what I am doing wrong, but I also tried using the viewBox prop, still no effect. How can I rectify this?
Code:
import YourEldercarePartner from '../../Assets/Images/WelcomeScreenSVGImages/Your-Eldercare-Partner.svg';
const data = [
...
{
heading: "Welcome to Emoha!",
svg: {
image: YourEldercarePartner,
width: hp(40),
height: hp(40)
},
message: "India’s largest virtual community of Elders. This app is your one-stop solution for everything Elders need to live a healthy and energized life in the comfort of home."
},
...
];
return (
<Swiper
ref={swiper}
loop={false}
onIndexChanged={index => setIndex(index)}
showsButtons={false}
showsPagination={true}
renderPagination={handlePagination}
>
{
data.map((datum, idx) => <Screen datum={datum} key={idx}/> )
}
</Swiper>
)
const Screen = ({ datum }) => (
<View style={styles.container}>
<View style={styles.main}>
<Text style={styles.heading}>
{datum.heading}
</Text>
<View style={{ marginTop: 10, flex: 10, justifyContent: 'flex-start' }}>
<datum.svg.image
width={datum.svg.width}
height={datum.svg.height}
/>
</View>
<Text style={styles.message}>
{datum.message}
</Text>
</View>
</View>
)
Kind of late, but had similar problem and it was because svg width was actually smaller than mask width inside svg.
For example:
<svg width="261" height="251" viewBox="0 0 261 251" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<mask id="mask1_11005_24077" style="mask-type:alpha" maskUnits="userSpaceOnUse" x="7" y="0" width="251" height="251">
Here mask width was accidentally 251 and after changing to 261 it was fixed and image not cut anymore. Don't see your svg anymore so I don't know if this was case for you, but was for me with multiple images.
I am developing a e-commerce app and some products does not have pictures and because of that sometimes ımage components looks empty. It looks bad. (To get pictures i am using uri.)
My question is how can i know if there isn't a picture on that uri?
<FastImage
source={{
uri: photoUri,
priority: FastImage.priority.high,
}}
style={styles.logo}
/>
You can try react-native-elements, it will show PlaceholderImage when uri error
import { Image as ImageElement } from 'react-native-elements'
import { Image } from 'react-native'
<ImageElement
style={{ width: 100, height: 100 }}
source={{ uri: reduceImageSize(item.image, width) }}
PlaceholderContent={(
<Image source={require('image-placeholder.png')} style={{ width: 100, height: 100 }} />
)}
/>
Anyone here can help me make resizeMode work with <ImageBackground>?
It gives an error that resizeMode is applied to View, which apparently doesn't support it.
But i need to find a workaround, as i find pretty complicated to use <Image /> as a background for a block with info.
Thanks in advance!
<ImageBackground
style={[styles.image]}
source={{ uri: url }}
imageStyle={{resizeMode: 'contain'}}
>
// other components here
</ImageBackground>
Hope it helps!
NOTE: At the time I wrote this, <ImageBackground /> was an undocumented feature not yet released. But it does exist now.
There is no <ImageBackground /> that I'm aware of, but you can create one.
If you're trying to set an image as the background to some text, then <Image /> is the best way. Where do you feel it's overly complicated? Something like this should work...
class BackgroundImage extends Component {
render() {
return (
<Image
source={this.props.src}
style={styles.backgroundImage}>
{this.props.children}
</Image>
)
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
backgroundImage: {
flex: 1,
width: null,
height: null,
resizeMode: 'cover'
}
});
Then you'd use it like this...
<BackgroundImage
src={require('./background.jpg')}>
<Text>Your Content Goes Here!</Text>
</BackgroundImage>
I am trying to implement react native webview component in my application, but the web view is not loading any url its just showing the white page.
var React = require('react-native');
var{
View,
Text,
StyleSheet,
WebView
} = React;
module.exports = React.createClass({
render: function(){
return(
<View style={styles.container}>
<WebView source={{uri: 'https://m.facebook.com'}} style= {styles.webView}/>
</View>
);
}
});
var styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex:1,
backgroundColor: '#ff00ff'
},webView :{
height: 320,
width : 200
}
});
Below is the screenshot of the output .
I had this issue. WebView would render when it was the only component returned, but not when nested in another View component.
For reasons I'm not entirely sure of the issue was resolved by setting a width property on the WebView component.
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<WebView
source={{uri: 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/MhkGQAoc7bc'}}
style={styles.video}
/>
<WebView
source={{uri: 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/PGUMRVowdv8'}}
style={styles.video}
/>
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'space-between',
},
video: {
marginTop: 20,
maxHeight: 200,
width: 320,
flex: 1
}
});
I'm facing same issue. What I observed is that WebView doesn't work if it's nested. If component returns just WebView, then everything is fine.
Using the answers from other users, I was able to get my react native with webview working both inside a view and outside a view. My problem came down to two things. Being on the android emulator and behind a proxy, I just had to go to my browser (chrome) in the android emulator and sign in to the corporate proxy. Secondly, some sites work and others will not work. Whether the webview was nested or not inside of a View tag, some sites like cnn.com and slack.com etc will work fine, but no matter what settings I tried for google.com it wouldn't work (even though the proxy will definitely allow google.com) Lastly, when I rebuild my application and push to the emulator the new app, sometimes it took an inordinately long time to load any site. But once the site was loaded, the links are quick and responsive. So if you don't at first see something after a build, also be patient. Hope this helps someone else.
My final app.js
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import {
Platform,
StyleSheet,
Text,
View,
Dimensions
} from 'react-native';
import { WebView } from 'react-native';
const deviceHeight = Dimensions.get('window').height;
const deviceWidth = Dimensions.get('window').width;
type Props = {};
export default class App extends Component<Props> {
render() {
return (
<View style={{flex:1}}>
<WebView
style={styles.webview}
source={{uri: 'https://www.slack.com'}}
javaScriptEnabled={true}
domStorageEnabled={true}
startInLoadingState={false}
scalesPageToFit={true} />
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
webview: {
flex: 1,
backgroundColor: 'yellow',
width: deviceWidth,
height: deviceHeight
}
});
WebView works well on Android. However you need to enable javascript and dom storage for some web pages.
<WebView style={styles.webView}
source={{uri: 'https://google.com/'}}
javaScriptEnabled={true}
domStorageEnabled={true}
startInLoadingState={true}
>
</WebView>
If you want the component to render the entire page, you need to wrap it with View that has flex: 1. The code below works for me:
<View style={{flex:1, alignItems: 'flex-end'}}>
<WebView
source={{uri: this.state.webContentLink}}
startInLoadingState={true}
scalesPageToFit={true} />
</View>
WebView is being moved to react-native-webview
.
None of the other answers worked except this method:
npm install --save react-native-webview
Then use it as follows:
<View style={{ flex: 1, alignItems: 'flex-end' }}>
<WebView
source={{
uri: 'https://www.yahoo.com',
}}
startInLoadingState={true}
scalesPageToFit={true}
style={{
width: 320,
height: 300,
}}
/>
</View>
<View>
<WebView
source={{uri: this.props.link}}
style={styles.webview}
javaScriptEnabled={true}
domStorageEnabled={true}
startInLoadingState={true}
/>
</View>
and style as follows:
const React = require('react-native');
const { Dimensions } = React;
const deviceHeight = Dimensions.get('window').height;
const deviceWidth = Dimensions.get('window').width;
export default {
webview: {
width: deviceWidth,
height: deviceHeight
}
};
All this to deal with bad webview dimension, so just set a specific height and specific width too (deviceHeight and deviceWidth as the example above).
As of June 2020 (noting the date because React Native answers seem to become out-of-date quickly), the simplest solution to this appears to be:
import React from 'react'
import { View, StyleSheet } from 'react-native'
import { WebView } from 'react-native-webview'
export const ComponentWithWebView = () => {
return (
<View style={styles.view}>
<WebView source = {{uri: 'https://www.google.com/'}} />
</View>
)
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
view: {
alignSelf: 'stretch',
flex: 1,
}
}
This results in a WebView filling the available space and being nested within a View. I believe the typical problems faced when placing a WebView within a View is that View expects children to force the View to expand (that is, a Text component would take up some amount of width and height which the View then accommodates). WebView, on the other hand, expands to the size of the parent component unless a style is passed specifying the width. Therefore, a simple <View><WebView /></View> results in a 0 width and nothing shown on the screen. The earlier solutions of setting the WebView width work well but require either the device dimensions to be fetched (which might not be the desired width) or for the View to have an onLayout function AND have some way to expand the View to the desired space. I found it easiest to just apply the flex: 1 and alignSelf: 'stretch' for the View to fill the space as desired and then WebView to automatically follow suit.
Hope this helps someone before it becomes obsolete!
I ran into the same issue recently. And I found that
alignment: 'center'
was causing the issue for me. I commented it and the webView got loaded immediately.
I found the solution here :
https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/5974
'brunocvcunha's' response worked for me.
Let me give the simplest example which will work seamlessly:
import React from 'react';
import { WebView } from 'react-native';
export default class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<WebView
source={{uri: 'https://github.com/facebook/react-native'}}
/>
);
}
}
Do not add your WebView component within a view that created problem and webview url is not rendered rather styles of view will be shown.
I had the same issue and spent a day attempting to fix it. I copied in the UIExplorer webview example, and that didn't work.
I ultimately ended up upgrading react and creating a new react-native project and copying the files in there, and that fixed it.
I wish I had a better answer as to why that fixed it, but hopefully that helps
Below is piece of the code which worked for me.
render: function(){
return(
<View style={styles.container}>
<WebView url={'https://m.facebook.com'} style= {styles.webView}/>
</View>
);
}
I am doing React Native Webview, Could you please suggest me how to makeWebview loading the uri
render() {
return (
<Modal
animationType="slide"
ref={"webModal"}
style={{
justifyContent: 'center',
borderRadius: Platform.OS === 'ios' ? 30 : 0,
width: screen.width,
height: screen.height,borderColor:'red',
borderWidth: 5
}}
position='center'
backdrop={false}
onClosed={() => {
// alert("Modal closed");
}}>
<View style={{ flexDirection: 'row', justifyContent: 'space-between', paddingHorizontal: 20, top: 10 }} >
<Text style={{ fontSize: 24, fontWeight: '700' }}>
Interests
</Text>
<Icon name="ios-close" size={40} color='purple' onPress={() => { this.refs.webModal.close() }} />
</View>
<WebView
source={{ uri: this.state.link }}
style={{ marginTop: 20,borderColor:'green',
borderWidth: 5 }}
/>
</Modal>
);
}
}
import { WebView } from 'react-native'; is deprecated
use below line instead
npm install react-native-render-html#4.1.2 --save
then
import HTML from 'react-native-render-html';
react-native-render-html starting with version 4.2.0, react-native-webview is now a peer dependency. As a result, you need to install it yourself.
Try
<WebView
source={{ uri: "https://inhall.in/" }}
style={Styles.webView}
javaScriptEnabled={true}
scalesPageToFit />
javaScriptEnabled={true} might help
