I am beginner is React Native, I have created a sample application and trying to add react-navigation
here is my code in App.js
import React, {Fragment} from 'react';
import {
StyleSheet,
View,
StatusBar,
} from 'react-native';
import {
Header,
LearnMoreLinks,
Colors,
DebugInstructions,
ReloadInstructions,
} from 'react-native/Libraries/NewAppScreen';
import Container from './ScreenContainer';
const App = () => {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<StatusBar backgroundColor="#819ca9" barStyle="light-content" hidden={true}></StatusBar>
</View>
);
};
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container:{
justifyContent: 'center',
backgroundColor:'#819ca9',
flex: 1,
// alignItems:"center"
},
});
export default App;
And this is my ScreenContainer.js
import { createAppContainer, createStackNavigator, StackActions, NavigationActions } from 'react-navigation'; // Version can be specified in package.json
import login from './pages/login'; //import Login from './pages/login';
const NavigationStack = createStackNavigator({
SignUp: login
});
const Container = createAppContainer(NavigationStack);
export default Container;
When I use this js in my App.js everything goes blank, after research a lot I found if I comment alignItems:"center" then my screen comes bt everything get distorted, search a lot on internet couldn't found the proper solution
Here is my package.json
{
"name": "MobileAPP",
"version": "0.0.1",
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"start": "react-native start",
"test": "jest",
"lint": "eslint ."
},
"dependencies": {

"react-native": "0.60.4",
"react-native-gesture-handler": "^1.3.0",
"react-native-router-flux": "^4.0.6",
"react-navigation": "^3.11.1"
},
"devDependencies": {

"metro-react-native-babel-preset": "0.54.1",
"react-test-renderer": "16.8.6"
},
"jest": {
"preset": "react-native"
}
}
Can anyone help me how to make this working without disturbing my UI.
Thanks a lot
I see that you’ve imported Container in your App.js but I can’t see it being used anywhere.

Hoping someone can help as i'm struggling to see what the issue is.
When using react-native-navigation to create a stack navigator, no matter what approach I use to export and import the component to pass into the <Stack.Screen/>, it seems to throw the below error.
React Native Issue
Stack Trace
Error: Couldn't find a 'component', 'getComponent' or 'children' prop for the screen 'Home'. This can happen if you passed 'undefined'. You likely forgot to export your component from the file it's defined in, or mixed up default import and named import when importing.
After seeing this stack trace, i done a console.log() and passed in the component just to see if undefined was being returned. This wasn't the case. I can see the HomeComp component for example be

The problem is you are using 'Component' instead of 'component'
you will have to change the prop name to simple case
<Stack.Screen
name="Home"
component={HomeComp}
/>
<Stack.Screen
name="test"
component={test}
/>
As the component prop is not being passed its undefined in the navigator, thats why you are getting the error
I am trying to get a simple example of tab navigation to work in react native. It seems like examples online all assume that a tab navigation screen is the one and only screen in your app, which is not the case for me. In my app I will have a login page, and upon successful login there will be a tab navigation screen I call DashboardTabScreen. The app will have other (non tab) screens available (like Settings or Contact us, or whatever) and each of the tab screens will be the root of a stack of other "detail" screens.
So here is my App.js:
import { createAppContainer } from 'react-navigation';
import { createStackNavigator } from 'react-navigation-stack';
import LoginScreen from "./src/screens/LoginScreen";
import DashboardTabScreen from "./src/screens/DashboardTabScreen";
const navigator = createStackNavigator(
{
Login: LoginScreen,
DashboardTab: DashboardTabScreen
},
{
initialRouteName: "Login",
defaultNavigationOptions: {
title: "App"
}
}
);
export default createAppContainer(navigator);
And here is my DashboardTabScreen.js
import React, {Component} from "react";
import { Text, StyleSheet, View } from "react-native";
import { createBottomTabNavigator } from 'react-navigation-tabs';
const FirstScreen = () => {
return (
<View style={{ flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center' }}>
<Text>First!</Text>
</View>
);
}
const SecondScreen = () => {
return (
<View style={{ flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center' }}>
<Text>Second!</Text>
</View>
);
}
const DashboardTabScreen = createBottomTabNavigator(
{
First: {
screen: FirstScreen,
},
Second: {
screen: SecondScreen,
}
}
);
export default DashboardTabScreen;
When I run the app, it goes to the Login screen as expected. Upon successful login, it should go to this dashboard tab screen. Instead it throws an error:
Invariant violation: Element type is invalid: expected a string (for built-in components) or
a class/function (for composite components) but got undefined. You likely forgot to export
your component from the file it is defined in, or you might have mixed up default and named
imports.
And here is my package.json:
{
"main": "node_modules/expo/AppEntry.js",
"scripts": {
"start": "expo start",
"android": "expo start --android",
"ios": "expo start --ios",
"web": "expo start --web",
"eject": "expo eject"
},
"dependencies": {
"#react-native-community/masked-view": "^0.1.10",
"#react-navigation/bottom-tabs": "^5.4.1",

"react-native-safe-area-context": "^0.6.4",
"react-native-screens": "^2.7.0",
"react-navigation": "^4.3.9",
"react-navigation-stack": "^2.0.16",

"stable": "^0.1.8"
},
"devDependencies": {
"#babel/core": "^7.0.0",
"babel-preset-expo": "~8.0.0"
},
"private": true
}
So what is wrong with my code?
I had tried your code it's working perfectly, there is no error in your code:
I think the problem is with react-navigation-tabs version:
change :
"react-navigation-tabs": "^1.2.0",
to
"react-navigation-tabs": "^2.8.7"
Hope this helps!
The problem is with the react-navigation-tabs try to upgrade and then check it.
I have a problem when I try to add a bottomnavigation in my app on the main screen:
This is the main screen code:
// Main.js
import React from 'react';
import { View, Text, StyleSheet, Button } from 'react-native';
import firebase from 'react-native-firebase';
import { NavigationContainer } from '#react-navigation/native';
import { createBottomTabNavigator } from '#react-navigation/bottom-tabs';
export default class Main extends React.Component {
state = { currentUser: null }
componentDidMount() {
const { currentUser } = firebase.auth()
this.setState({ currentUser })
}
render() {
const { currentUser } = this.state
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<Text>
Hi {currentUser && currentUser.email}!
</Text>
</View>
)
}
}
const bottomTabNavigator = createBottomTabNavigator(
{
Main: Main,
},
{
initialRouteName: 'Main'
}
);
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
}
})
No when I run it I get this error:
Error: Creating a navigator doesn't take an argument. Maybe you are trying to use React Navigation 4 API with React Navigation 5? See https://reactnavigation.org/docs/en/hello-react-navigation.html for usage guide.

But apparently react-navigation can't be updated above 4.11 or at least that is what the npm page says.

So I am a bit lost here. Does anyone see what I do wrong?
Thanks a lot!

You are using react-navigation v5 dependencies but in your code you implement with v4 api way.
You should change react-navigation dependencies to v4 to make your code work.
I made you code work on snack : demo
I'm developing iOS application with React Native and using Icon from native-base in the navigation bar.
However, some icons are not shown up as the icon I expected there.
This is my code.
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import {
View,
Text,
} from 'react-native';
import { Icon } from 'native-base';
export default class HomeTab extends Component {
static navigationOptions = {
tabBarIcon: ({tintColor}) => (
<Icon name='md-add-circle-outline' style={{color: tintColor}} />
)
};
render() {
return (
<View>
<Text>
HomeTab
</Text>
</View>
)
}
}
This code is supposed to show up the icon below.
https://gyazo.com/b9a19f8de26261cb62e834cd7a0ca867
But, in fact, the icon below is shown up.
https://gyazo.com/5476d5b168f51014038470d85381c9e9
This is, I think, the icon reference site.
And this is my package.json.
{
"name": "Sample",
"version": "0.0.1",
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"start": "node node_modules/react-native/local-cli/cli.js start",
"test": "jest"
},
"dependencies": {
"native-base": "^2.12.1",
"react": "16.8.6",
"react-native": "0.59.7",
"react-native-gesture-handler": "^1.2.1",
"react-native-vector-icons": "^6.4.2",
"react-navigation": "^3.9.1"
},
"devDependencies": {
"#babel/core": "7.4.4",
"#babel/runtime": "7.4.4",
"babel-jest": "24.8.0",
"jest": "24.8.0",
"metro-react-native-babel-preset": "0.54.0",
"react-test-renderer": "16.8.6"
},
"jest": {
"preset": "react-native"
}
}
In Icon component also specify type component, most of the time it works but sometimes it gives error.
type is the name of the font, eg: 'AntDesign', 'MaterialCommunityIcons', etc
you can search for almost all icons here
I am new at react native and I am trying to create an iOS app. My splash screen works fine and loads the initial App.js screen when creating project fine. However, when I change the return to my own .js file, it fails to build and is stuck on splash screen. Please give me some tips, I followed many tutorials.
App.js
// App.js
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import SplashScreen from 'react-native-splash-screen';
import GetStarted from './authentication/GetStarted'
import { createStackNavigator, createAppContainer } from 'react-navigation'
const AuthNav = createAppContainer(
createStackNavigator({
GetStarted: { screen: GetStarted },
})
);
type Props = {};
export default class App extends Component<Props> {
componentDidMount() {
SplashScreen.hide()
}
render() {
return (
<AuthNav />
);
}
}
GetStarted.js
//GetStarted.js
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import {
View,
Text,
StyleSheet,
} from 'react-native';
export default class GetStarted extends Component {
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<Text>Lets get started</Text>
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
alignItem: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center',
backgroundColor: 'blue'
}
});

You are using "react-navigation": "^3.3.0" and trying to import StackNavigator. In v2+ they renamed StackNavigator to createStackNavigator. Looks like the tutorial you used is using v1. So, you can either change the version you are using to "react-navigation": "^1.5.2" or stay and use createStackNavigator. If you choose to stick with the version you are on (v2+), read another one of my responses to this same issue here; it will explain further.
