react-native-pager-view

This component allows the user to swipe left and right through pages of data. Under the hood it is using the native Android ViewPager and the iOS UIPageViewController implementations. See it in action!

Versions

Migration

In version 6.x support for transitionStyle property has been dropped. More information here.

"@react-native-community/viewpager" library has been changed to react-native-pager-view. Here you can find more information, how to migrate pager view to the latest version

Getting started

Manual linking

Usage

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, View, Text } from 'react-native';
import PagerView from 'react-native-pager-view';

const MyPager = () => {
  return (
    <PagerView style={styles.pagerView} initialPage={0}>
      <View key="1">
        <Text>First page</Text>
      </View>
      <View key="2">
        <Text>Second page</Text>
      </View>
    </PagerView>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  pagerView: {
    flex: 1,
  },
});

Attention: Note that you can only use View components as children of PagerView (cf. folder /example) . For Android if View has own children, set prop collapsable to false https://reactnative.dev/docs/view#collapsable-android, otherwise react-native might remove those children views and and its children will be rendered as separate pages

Known Issues

• flex:1 does not work for child views, please use width: '100%', height: '100%' instead

• [iOS]: In case of UIViewControllerHierarchyInconsistency error, please use below fix:

requestAnimationFrame(() => refPagerView.current?.setPage(index));

Reanimated onPageScroll handler

An example can be found here

Instructions

To attach reanimated handler with onPageScroll follow the below steps.

// 1. Define the handler
function usePageScrollHandler(handlers, dependencies) {
  const { context, doDependenciesDiffer } = useHandler(handlers, dependencies);
  const subscribeForEvents = ['onPageScroll'];

  return useEvent(
    (event) => {
      'worklet';
      const { onPageScroll } = handlers;
      if (onPageScroll && event.eventName.endsWith('onPageScroll')) {
        onPageScroll(event, context);
      }
    },
    subscribeForEvents,
    doDependenciesDiffer
  );
}

// 2. Attach the event handler
import PagerView from 'react-native-pager-view';
import Animated from 'react-native-reanimated';
const AnimatedPagerView = Animated.createAnimatedComponent(PagerView);

const pageScrollHandler = usePageScrollHandler({
  onPageScroll: (e) => {
    'worklet';
    offset.value = e.offset;
    console.log(e.offset, e.position);
  },
});

<AnimatedPagerView onPageScroll={pageScrollHandler} />;

usePagerView Hook Usage

The usePagerView hook is a convenient way to manage the state and control the behavior of the <PagerView /> component. It provides functions and variables to interact with the pager, such as navigating between pages and enabling/disabling scrolling.

Below is an example of how to use the usePager hook:

export function PagerHookExample() {
  const { AnimatedPagerView, ref, ...rest } = usePagerView({ pagesAmount: 10 });

  return (
    <SafeAreaView style={styles.container}>
      <AnimatedPagerView
        testID="pager-view"
        ref={ref}
        style={styles.PagerView}
        initialPage={0}
        layoutDirection="ltr"
        overdrag={rest.overdragEnabled}
        scrollEnabled={rest.scrollEnabled}
        onPageScroll={rest.onPageScroll}
        onPageSelected={rest.onPageSelected}
        onPageScrollStateChanged={rest.onPageScrollStateChanged}
        pageMargin={10}
        orientation="horizontal"
      >
        {useMemo(
          () =>
            rest.pages.map((_, index) => (
              <View
                testID="pager-view-content"
                key={index}
                style={{
                  flex: 1,
                  backgroundColor: '#fdc08e',
                  alignItems: 'center',
                  padding: 20,
                }}
                collapsable={false}
              >
                <LikeCount />
                <Text testID={`pageNumber${index}`}>
                  {`page number ${index}`}
                </Text>
              </View>
            )),
          [rest.pages]
        )}
      </AnimatedPagerView>
      <NavigationPanel {...rest} />
    </SafeAreaView>
  );
}

How the Example Works:

• Pager View Setup: The AnimatedPagerView component wraps PagerView in React Native's animation capabilities. It accepts multiple props from the usePager hook, such as overdragEnabled, scrollEnabled, onPageScroll, onPageSelected, and others to manage pager behavior.

• Rendering Pages: The pages are dynamically generated using the rest.pages array (initialized by usePager). The useMemo hook ensures the pages are only recomputed when necessary for performance reasons.

Conclusion

The usePager hook makes it easy to handle pagination with dynamic views. This example demonstrates how to set up a simple paginated interface where users can scroll through pages, interact with page elements, and control the pager with external navigation.
