I want to add footer to my flatList :
i try this code :
renderFooter = () => {
return (
<View
style={{
paddingVertical: 20,
borderTopWidth: 1,
borderColor: "#CED0CE"
}}
>
<Button> This is footer </Button>
</View>
);
}
<FlatList
data={menuData}
renderItem={({item}) => <DrawerItem navigation={this.props.navigation} screenName={item.screenName} icon={item.icon} name={item.name} key={item.key} />}
ListFooterComponent ={this.renderFooter}
/>
But no footer appears when running.
Any help please
You used the component
ListFooterComponent
in right way. you need to check your render method for footer. I faced the same issue and i follow this example, and it helps me. I hope it will help you.
Simple way/hack. In the menuData array, you just add a flag (i called) to the child object to indicate that it's a last item. For eg:
If you can modify your menuData structure, added lastItem prop true to indicate that it's the last item :
const menuData = [
{name:'menu1', screenName:'screen1', icon:'../assets/icon1.png'},
{name:'menu2', screenName:'screen2', icon:'../assets/icon2.png', lastItem:true}
];
and then
renderFlatItems = ({item}) => {
const itemView = null;
if (!items.lastItem) {
itemView = <DrawerItem navigation={this.props.navigation} screenName={item.screenName} icon={item.icon} name={item.name} key={item.key} />
} else {
itemView = <View style={{padding:100}}><Button> This is footer </Button> </View>
}
return {itemView};
}
then use it in the Flatlist like so
<FlatList
data={menuData}
renderItem={this.renderFlatItems}
/>
If you want a footer that remains at the bottom of the screen "Above" the list, then you can just add a View after the FlatList.
<View>
<FlatList style={{flex: 1}} />
<View
style={{
position: 'absolute',
left: 0,
right: 0,
bottom: 0,
height: 50,
}}
/>
</View>

I am trying to build something like instagram posts, that is continuous images that can be scrolled. But the last image is being cropped, that is only the upper half of it is being visible, there are several posts, regarding the same, but those didnt help, (contentContainerStyle={{flexGrow: 1,}}, adding height to a invisible view). Can someone please point out what is going wrong?
EDIT: I have changed scrollview to flatlist and still face the same problem, can you suggest what else to do?
EDIT 2: realised that the <Header /> and <Stories /> above the flatlist are not letting it scroll completely, that is the height that
it is not scrolling is proportional to height of <Header /> and <Stories />
post.js
const Post = ({post}) => {
return (
<View style={{flex:1}}>
<Divider width = {0.5}/>
<PostHeader post={post}/>
<PostImage post={post} />
<PostFooter post={post}/>
</View>
)
}
const PostImage = ({post}) => {
return (
<View style={styles.postContainer}>
<Image style={styles.image} source={{uri: post.post_url}}></Image>
</View>
)
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
},
dp: {
width: 35,
height: 35,
margin:5,
borderRadius: 20,
borderWidth : 1,
borderColor : '#ff8501'
},
postContainer: {
width: '100%',
height: 400,
},
image: {
height: '100%',
resizeMode: 'cover',
}
})
homescreen.js
const HomeScreen = () => {
return (
<SafeAreaView >
<Header />
<Stories />
{/* <ScrollView>
{
POSTS.map((post, index) => {
return (
<Post key={index} post={post} />
)
})
}
</ScrollView> */}
<FlatList data={POSTS} renderItem={({item}) => <Post post={item} />} />
</SafeAreaView>
)
}
If you want to render repetitive view so why you are not using Faltlist instead of Scrollview. For repetitive view react native provide one component which is called Flatlist and pass you array data in render item it will give you better performance as well.
<SafeAreaView style={styles.container}>
<FlatList
data={DATA}
renderItem={renderItem}
keyExtractor={item => item.id}
/>
</SafeAreaView>
const renderItem = ({ item }) => (
<Divider width = {0.5}/>
<PostHeader post={item}/>
<PostImage post={item} />
</View>
);
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
},
item: {
backgroundColor: '#f9c2ff',
padding: 20,
marginVertical: 8,
marginHorizontal: 16,
},
});
According to React Native docs FlatList is the Component you should use:
ScrollView renders all its react child components at once, but this has a performance downside.
Imagine you have a very long list of items you want to display, maybe several screens worth of content. Creating JS components and native views for everything all at once, much of which may not even be shown, will contribute to slow rendering and increased memory usage.
This is where FlatList comes into play. FlatList renders items lazily, when they are about to appear, and removes items that scroll way off screen to save memory and processing time.
FlatList is also handy if you want to render separators between your items, multiple columns, infinite scroll loading, or any number of other features it supports out of the box.
const Post = () => {
renderItemHandler = ({post, index}) => (
<View key={index} >
<Divider width={0.5}/>
<PostHeader post={post}/>
<PostImage post={post} />
</View>
)
return (
<SafeAreaView style={{flex: 1}}>
<View style={{height: "90%"}}>
<Flatlist
data={POSTS}
renderItem={renderItemHandler}
keyExtractor={item => item.id}
/>
</View>
</SafeAreaView>
)
}
Displaying more than 200+ images in the flatlist and make the user to select or deselect by clicking an image. So, when the user is clicks a image, Need to show the check-circle icon on the image. Similarly, when the user is deselect the selected image, need to remove the icon. I got two arrays images[] and selectedImagesId[]. Whenever the user selects an image, the image id will be pushed into selectedImagesId array. By the way, Iam showing the icon if the rendered image id avaliable in the selectedImagesId. The problem here is, it takes so long to display or remove the icon.
<FlatList
data={props.images}
extraData={selectedImagesId}
initialNumToRender={10}
refreshing={true}
removeClippedSubviews={true}
maxToRenderPerBatch={1}
windowSize={7}
showsVerticalScrollIndicator={false}
numColumns={3}
keyExtractor={(item) => item.id.toString()}
renderItem={(itemData) => <RenderData itemData={itemData} />}
>
const RenderData = ({ itemData }) => (
<View>
<TouchableOpacity
activeOpacity={0.8}
style={{
width: width / 3.5,
height: height / 7,
padding: 2,
}}
onPress={() => {
console.log('pressed');
if (props.selectedImages.includes(itemData.item.uri)) {
const index = props.selectedImages.indexOf(itemData.item.uri);
if (index > -1) {
props.removeImageandId(index, itemData.item.id);
}
} else {
props.selectImageandId(itemData.item.uri, itemData.item.id);
}
}}>
<Image
style={{ width: '100%', height: '100%' }}
source={{
uri: itemData.item.uri,
}}
/>
{selectedImagesId.includes(itemData.item.id) && (
<AntDesign
name='checkcircle'
size={24}
color='white'
style={{ position: 'absolute', bottom: 5, right: 15 }}
/>
)}
</TouchableOpacity>
<Text style={{ backgroundColor: 'red', fontSize: 25 }}>
{render.current++}
</Text>
</View>
);
You can Refer This article
It will guide you on how to render Only particular selected components that change.
not the Whole flatList components.
so, that based Only selected particular component you can remove the icon. not whole flatList Re-render.
I'm trying to make a layout so that the later parts of the view are only reachable by scrolling.
Currently I'm using Dimensions to generate Views with the correct height. Is there a better way of doing so? My current solution doesn't seem too correct.
export default function MyApp() {
const height = Dimensions.get('window').height;
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<ScrollView>
<View style={{backgroundColor: 'green', height:height}}/>
<View style={{backgroundColor: 'red', height:40}}/>
</ScrollView>
</View>
);
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container:{
backgroundColor: 'white',
flex: 1
}
});
You can use VirtualizedList component, for example as
<VirtualizedList
data={['body']}
renderItem={({ item }) => (
<View style={styles.screen}>
{/* Put more content for body */}
</View>
)}
keyExtractor={(item, index) => index.toString()}
getItemCount={() => {
return 1;
}}
getItem={(data, index) => {
return data[index];
}}>
</VirtualizedList>
Your solution work, but not good and it have downside, when you change your phone orientation to landscape there will be bug. I dont like using Dimensions in my code unless there is no other way or use Dimensions addEventListener to listen window size and update component whenever window size change. I will suggest you a better way.
First, create a component called LayoutSizeAwareView, after this view rendered, we will catch it size from onLayout props and use them to render it children.
const LayoutSizeAwareView = (props) => {
const [size, setSize] = React.useState({width: 0, height: 0});
return (
<View
...props,
onLayout={(e) => {
setSize({
width: e.nativeEvent.layout.width,
height: e.nativeEvent.layout.height,
})
props.onLayout(e)
}}
>
{props.children(size)}
</View>
)
}
And then, in your case, use it like this
export default function MyApp() {
return (
<LayoutSizeAwareView style={styles.container}>
{({width, height}) => {
return (
<ScrollView>
<View style={{backgroundColor: 'green', height: height}}/>
<View style={{backgroundColor: 'red', height: 40}}/>
</ScrollView>
)
}}
</View>
);
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container:{
backgroundColor: 'white',
flex: 1
}
});
This way your code look even cooler, there will be some typo in my code since I dont have IDE here, but you might get the idea.
I am using react-native TextInput component. Here I need to show the InputBox above the keyboard if the user clicks on the textInput field.
I have tried below but i am facing the issues
1. Keyboard avoiding view
a. Here it shows some empty space below the input box
b. Manually I need to scroll up the screen to see the input field which I was given in the text field
c. Input box section is hiding while placing the mouse inside the input box
2. react-native-Keyboard-aware-scroll-view
a.It shows some empty space below the input box
b.ScrollView is reset to the top of the page after I moving to the next input box
Here I set the Keyboard-aware-scroll-view inside the ScrollView component
Kindly clarify
My example code is
<SafeAreaView>
<KeyboardAvoidingView>
<ScrollView>
<Text>Name</Text>
<AutoTags
//required
suggestions={this.state.suggestedName}
handleAddition={this.handleAddition}
handleDelete={this.handleDelete}
multiline={true}
placeholder="TYPE IN"
blurOnSubmit={true}
style= {styles.style}
/>
</ScrollView>
</KeyboardAvoidingView>
</SafeAreaView>
[https://github.com/APSL/react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view]
Give your TextInput a position: absolute styling and change its position using the height returned by the keyboardDidShow and keyboardDidHide events.
Here is a modification of the Keyboard example from the React Native documentation for demonstration:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Keyboard, TextInput } from 'react-native';
class Example extends Component {
state = {
keyboardOffset: 0,
};
componentDidMount() {
this.keyboardDidShowListener = Keyboard.addListener(
'keyboardDidShow',
this._keyboardDidShow,
);
this.keyboardDidHideListener = Keyboard.addListener(
'keyboardDidHide',
this._keyboardDidHide,
);
}
componentWillUnmount() {
this.keyboardDidShowListener.remove();
this.keyboardDidHideListener.remove();
}
_keyboardDidShow(event) {
this.setState({
keyboardOffset: event.endCoordinates.height,
})
}
_keyboardDidHide() {
this.setState({
keyboardOffset: 0,
})
}
render() {
return <View style={{flex: 1}}>
<TextInput
style={{
position: 'absolute',
width: '100%',
bottom: this.state.keyboardOffset,
}}
onSubmitEditing={Keyboard.dismiss}
/>
</View>;
}
}
First of all, You don't need any extra code for Android platform. Only keep your inputs inside a ScrollView. Just use KeyboardAvoidingView to encapsulate the ScrollView for iOS platform.
Create function such as below which holds all the inputs
renderInputs = () => {
return (<ScrollView
showsVerticalScrollIndicator={false}
style={{
flex: 1,
}}
contentContainerStyle={{
flexGrow: 1,
}}>
<Text>Enter Email</Text>
<TextInput
style={styles.text}
underlineColorAndroid="transparent"
/>
</ScrollView>)
}
Then render them inside the main view as below
{Platform.OS === 'android' ? (
this.renderInputs()
) : (
<KeyboardAvoidingView behavior="padding">
{this.renderInputs()}
</KeyboardAvoidingView>
)}
I have used this method and I can assure that it works.
If it is not working then there is a chance that you are missing something.
Hooks version:
const [keyboardOffset, setKeyboardOffset] = useState(0);
const onKeyboardShow = event => setKeyboardOffset(event.endCoordinates.height);
const onKeyboardHide = () => setKeyboardOffset(0);
const keyboardDidShowListener = useRef();
const keyboardDidHideListener = useRef();
useEffect(() => {
keyboardDidShowListener.current = Keyboard.addListener('keyboardWillShow', onKeyboardShow);
keyboardDidHideListener.current = Keyboard.addListener('keyboardWillHide', onKeyboardHide);
return () => {
keyboardDidShowListener.current.remove();
keyboardDidHideListener.current.remove();
};
}, []);
You can use a scrollview and put all components inside the scrollview and add automaticallyAdjustKeyboardInsets property to scrollview.it will solve your problem.
automaticallyAdjustKeyboardInsets Controls whether the ScrollView should automatically adjust its contentInset and
scrollViewInsets when the Keyboard changes its size. The default value is false.
<ScrollView automaticallyAdjustKeyboardInsets={true}>
{allChildComponentsHere}
<View style={{ height: 30 }} />//added some extra space to last element
</ScrollView>
Hope it helps.
you can use KeyboardAvoidingView as follows
if (Platform.OS === 'ios') {
return <KeyboardAvoidingView behavior="padding">
{this.renderChatInputSection()}
</KeyboardAvoidingView>
} else {
return this.renderChatInputSection()
}
Where this.renderChatInputSection() will return the view like textinput for typing message. Hope this will help you.
For android you can set android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" for Activity in AndroidManifest file, thus when the keyboard shows, your screen will resize and if you put the TextInput at the bottom of your screen, it will be keep above keyboard
react-native-keyboard-aware-scroll-view caused similar issue in ios. That's when I came across react-native-keyboard-aware-view. Snippets are pretty much same.
<KeyboardAwareView animated={true}>
<View style={{flex: 1}}>
<ScrollView style={{flex: 1}}>
<Text style={{fontSize: 20, color: '#FFFFFF'}}>A</Text>
<Text style={{fontSize: 20, color: '#FFFFFF'}}>B</Text>
<Text style={{fontSize: 20, color: '#FFFFFF'}}>C</Text>
<Text style={{fontSize: 20, color: '#FFFFFF'}}>D</Text>
</ScrollView>
</View>
<TouchableOpacity style={{height: 50, backgroundColor: 'transparent', alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center', alignSelf: 'stretch'}}>
<Text style={{fontSize: 20, color: '#FFFFFF'}}>Submit</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
</KeyboardAwareView>
Hope it hepls
You will definitely find this useful from
Keyboard aware scroll view Android issue
I really don't know why you have to add
"androidStatusBar": {
"backgroundColor": "#000000"
}
for KeyboardawareScrollview to work
Note:don't forget to restart the project without the last step it might not work
enjoy!
I faced the same problem when I was working on my side project, and I solved it after tweaking KeyboardAvoidingView somewhat.
I published my solution to npm, please give it a try and give me a feedback! Demo on iOS
Example Snippet
import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, TextInput } from 'react-native';
import KeyboardStickyView from 'rn-keyboard-sticky-view';
const KeyboardInput = (props) => {
const [value, setValue] = React.useState('');
return (
<KeyboardStickyView style={styles.keyboardView}>
<TextInput
value={value}
onChangeText={setValue}
onSubmitEditing={() => alert(value)}
placeholder="Write something..."
style={styles.input}
/>
</KeyboardStickyView>
);
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
keyboardView: { ... },
input: { ... }
});
export default KeyboardInput;
I based my solution of #basbase solution.
My issue with his solution that it makes the TextInput jumps up without any regard for my overall view.
That wasn't what I wanted in my case, so I did as he suggested but with a small modification
Just give the parent View styling like this:
<View
style={{
flex: 1,
bottom: keyboardOffset,
}}>
And it would work! the only issue is that if the keyboard is open and you scrolled down you would see the extra blank padding at the end of the screen.
android:launchMode="singleTask"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden|adjustPan"
write these two lines in your android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml
in activity tag
flexGrow: 1 is the key.
Use it like below:
<ScrollView contentContainerStyle={styles.container}>
<TextInput
label="Note"
value={currentContact.note}
onChangeText={(text) => setAttribute("note", text)}
/>
</ScrollView>
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flexGrow: 1,
},
});
Best and Easy Way is to use Scroll View , It will Automatically take content Up and TextInput will not be hide,Can refer Below Code
<ScrollView style={styles.container}>
<View>
<View style={styles.commonView}>
<Image source={firstNameIcon} style={{width: 25, height: 25}}></Image>
<Text style={styles.commonTxt}>First Name</Text>
</View>
<TextInput
onFocus={() => onFocus('firstName')}
placeholder="First Name"
style={styles.txtInput}
onChangeText={(text) => onChangeText(text, 'firstName')}
value={firstNameValue}
/>
</View>
<View>
<View style={styles.commonView}>
<Image source={LastNameIcon} style={{width: 25, height: 25}}></Image>
<Text style={styles.commonTxt}>Last Name</Text>
</View>
<TextInput
onFocus={() => onFocus('lastName')}
placeholder="Last Name"
style={styles.txtInput}
onChangeText={(text) => onChangeText(text, 'lastName')}
value={lastNameValue}
/>
</View>
<View>
<View style={styles.commonView}>
<Image source={callIcon} style={{width: 25, height: 25}}></Image>
<Text style={styles.commonTxt}>Number</Text>
</View>
<TextInput
onFocus={() => onFocus('number')}
placeholder="Number"
style={styles.txtInput}
onChangeText={(text) => onChangeText(text, 'number')}
value={numberValue}
/>
</View>
<View>
<View style={styles.commonView}>
<Image source={emailIcon} style={{width: 25, height: 25}}></Image>
<Text style={styles.commonTxt}>Email</Text>
</View>
<TextInput
onFocus={() => onFocus('email')}
placeholder="Email"
style={styles.txtInput}
onChangeText={(text) => onChangeText(text, 'email')}
value={emailValue}
/>
</View>
<View style={styles.viewSavebtn}>
<TouchableOpacity style={styles.btn}>
<Text style={styles.saveTxt}>Save</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</ScrollView>
go to your Android>app>src>main> AndroidManifest.xml
write these 2 lines :
android:launchMode="singleTop" android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
I am fetching products list and then displaying using a FlatList, my list contains 5 items and as you can see FlatList row height is variable because of varying description text. So the issue is my last item card is not completely visible maybe this is some kind of flat list issue or layout issue. Any help would be highly appreciated
renderProducts() {
if (this.props.loading === true) {
return (
<View style={Styles.spinnerStyle}>
<ActivityIndicator size='large' />
</View>
);
}
return (
<FlatList
data={this.props.myProducts}
keyExtractor={(item) => item.id}
renderItem={({ item }) => (
<Card
title={item.title}
image={{
uri: item.image !== null ? item.image.src :'../resImage.jpg'
}}
>
<Text style={{ marginBottom: 10 }}>
{item.body_html}
</Text>
<Button
icon={{ name: 'code' }}
backgroundColor='#03A9F4'
fontFamily='Lato'
buttonStyle={{ borderRadius: 0, marginLeft: 0, marginRight: 0, marginBottom: 0 }}
title='VIEW NOW'
/>
</Card>
)}
/>
);
}
render() {
return (
<View>
<View style={Styles.viewStyle}>
<Text style {Styles.textStyle}>ProductsList</Text>
</View>
{
this.renderProducts()
}
</View>
);
}
Set bottom padding to the <FlatList> content container:
<FlatList
contentContainerStyle={{ paddingBottom: 20 }}
/>
Add {flex: 1} to the View tag housing the Flatlist component.
In my case,
const App = () => {
return (
<Provider store={createStore(reducers)}>
<View style={{ flex: 1 }}>
<Header headerText={'My App'} />
<ScreenTabs /> // this is my content with FlatList
</View>
</Provider>
);
};
export default App;
Just wrap it in a view with flex:1
<ParentView style={{flex:1}
<View style={{flex:1}}>
// Your flatlist
<View>
</ParentView>
Also, note that the each parent of this "View" in which Flatlist is wrapped must also be a View with Flex of 1. Otherwise, that your flatlist wont be visible.
use contentContainerStyle props of FlatList
<FlatList contentContainerStyle={{ paddingBottom: 20}} />
Latest update:
react-navigation has a SafeAreaView with an option to not show that bottom area.
import { SafeAreaView } from 'react-navigation';
<SafeAreaView forceInset={{ bottom: 'never' }} />
Old response below:
You can't see your list with flex: 1 because flex: 1 will grow the component to the parent. If the parent doesn't have flex: 1, it won't stretch to its parent or the screen. Keep in mind, however, that flex: 1 with a SafeAreaView will cause the bottom safe area to show. This will look bad if your SafeAreaView backgroundColor is a different color from your list's back ground.
My old workaround was to add an item to the bottom of the array of items, but I'm still exploring how to scroll past/under the bottom safe area margin with a FlatList (which is how I found this post to begin with).
Update: Using ListFooterComponent you can create even a plain white "footer" with height and/or a margin
For example (I wouldn't directly copy and paste this if I were you... there's surely a better way to detect bezel-less iPhones, especially in 2019 when we have more than one)
ListFooterComponent={<View style={{ height: 0, marginBottom: 90 }}></View>}
This is how I would do it, using the iPhoneX's height for now. But it's not future-proof since the conditional will need to be updated every time a new iPhone with no bezels comes out:
ListFooterComponent={<View style={{ height: 0, marginBottom: noBezels ? 90 : 0 }}></View>}
Or you could just always have some spacing at the bottom, like a loading gif, a message... whatever.
UPDATE 2:
I found out about react-native-device-info which has a hasNotch() method. I find that useful for styling for iPhones with no bezels by combining hasNotch() with Platform.OS === 'ios'
You can try this solution
For Vertical FlatList:
<FlatList
ListFooterComponent={<View />}
ListFooterComponentStyle={{height:200}}
/>
For Horizontal FlatList:
<FlatList
contentContainerStyle={{paddingRight:40}}
/>
For IOS issues you can apply some IOS specific props:
<FlatList
// ...
contentInset={{top: 0, bottom: 20, left: 0, right: 0}}
contentInsetAdjustmentBehavior="automatic"
// ...
/>
The solution with contentContainerStyle padding didn't seem the best overall for fixing the safe area IOS issues in my case.
Work very well for me
<FlatList
data={data}
contentContainerStyle={{ paddingBottom: 30 }}
style={{height: '95%'}}
renderItem={({ item, index }) => (
<ListItem item={item} onPress={() => handlePress(item, index)} />
)}
/>
Make use of the contentContainerStyle prop in the flatlist
<FlatList contentContainerStyle={{paddingBottom: 10}} />
For dynamic flatlist, you can assign height to the parent view. I resolved it with same.
<View style={{height:'80%'}}>
<Flatlist
extraData={data}
data={data}
renderItem={renderItem}
/>
</View>
I had the same issue and found the solution. To fix the issue just add style={{flex: 1}} for each View element who is a parent for FlatList.
See updated code below.
render() {
return (
<View style={{flex: 1}}> // Here you should add style as {flex: 1}
<View style={Styles.viewStyle}>
<Text style={Styles.textStyle}>ProductsList</Text>
</View>
{ this.renderProducts() }
</View>
);
}
This worked for me.
<View style={{flex: 1}}>
<FlatList
style={{flex: 1}}
data={data}
renderItem={({item}) => (
<ListItem item={item} onPress={() => handlePress(item)} />
)}
/>
</View>
#krish solution is great for the fixed-size list items, however as
#Neeraj Sewani said, it may not be suitable for dynamic size list items.
so you can fix the issue like this -in case direction is column -:
<View style={{height: '90%'}}>
<FlatList/>
</View>
Otherwise, -in case direction is row -:
<View style={{height: '90%', width:'90%'}}>
<FlatList/>
</View>
I was seeing this same problem in our Android + iOS React Native hybrid app. We embed the FlatList component within our native UIs inside a Fragment in Android and we were unable to scroll to the last item in the list, even though the scroll indicator would show that there was more to scroll, the ScrollView would simply not scroll further. I tried all the combinations of using a wrapping <View style={{flex:1}}> to wrap the FlatList as well as using contentContainerStyle={{flexGrow:1}} on the FlatList without success. Pursuing the clue further it turned out that the FlatList needs an absolute, predefined height on Android to allow scroll to the bottom - it works just fine on iOS but on Android using match_parent wasn't going to work. Since we need to support all types of devices, phone and tablet too, it wasn't possible to pre-define an absolute height either.
To fix this, I made a custom FrameLayout subclass to house the ReactRootView's fragment, which overrides onLayout() to ignore the child view measurements, forcing the views to have the exact dimensions of the FrameLayout, somewhat like so in Kotlin:
class StretchFrameLayout #JvmOverloads constructor(
context: Context, attrs: AttributeSet? = null, defStyleAttr: Int = 0
) : FrameLayout(context, attrs, defStyleAttr) {
override fun onLayout(changed: Boolean, left: Int, top: Int, right: Int, bottom: Int) {
for (child in children){
if (child.visibility == View.GONE) continue
child.updateLayoutParams {
this.width = measuredWidth
this.height = measuredHeight
}
if (needsRelayout){
handler.postDelayed({child.requestLayout()},1)
}
}
super.onLayout(changed, left, top, right, bottom)
}
}
This work very well in my case:
<FlatList
data={todos}
contentContainerStyle={{ height: '100%' }}
renderItem={({ item }) => <Todos items={item} pressed={pressed} />}
/>
I've solved it doing contentInset={{ bottom: data.length * itemStyle.height, }} with itemStyle.height being 50 worked fine.
