@openspacelabs/react-native-zoomable-view

A view component for react-native with pinch to zoom, tap to move and double tap to zoom capability. You can zoom everything, from normal images, text and more complex nested views.

This library is a fork of @dudigital/react-native-zoomable-view. We've rewritten most of the logic in the original library to address the following items:

• [x] Fixed jittering during zooming and panning
• [x] Fixed incorrect zoom center (happens during pinching and double tapping)
• [x] Fixed incorrect pan boundaries
• [x] Added the ability to zoom and pan at the same time (before you can only perform 1 of these 2 at a time)
• [x] Added “pan momentum”, “zoom to”, and “boundaries-crossed” animations
• [x] Added onSingleTap (besides the existing onDoubleTap)
• [x] Added animated touch feedback when the zoom subject is tapped on
• [x] Added "react-native-builder-bob" as a framework for library management/maintenance
• [x] Better internal code organization and documentation
• [x] Allowed passing in a custom pan and zoom animation values via optional props

What sets this library apart from the other zoom-pan libraries?

This library offers a much better user experience than the others:

• The ability to zoom and pan at the same time.
• No jittering during zooming.
• Zoom center correctly placed at the pinch center - currently this is the ONLY react-native library that offers this.
• And many other goodies. Check out the documentation below for more details.

M1 Mac iOS Simulator

Note that if try to run this library on an M1 Mac iOS Simulator, the animations will be quite jittery/jumpy. Test it on a real physical device or non-M1 Mac to see the actual performance.

Installation

We are working with the original maintainers of this library to transfer the NPM alias for react-native-zoomable-view. In the meantime, you will want to use @openspacelabs/react-native-zoomable-view as the package identifier.

To add this package, run

npm add @openspacelabs/react-native-zoomable-view

or

yarn add @openspacelabs/react-native-zoomable-view

Basic Usage

This component is based on react-natives View, enhanced by panresponders and other events to make it zoomable. Therefore no platform specific configuration needs to be done.

Just use it as a drop in component instead of a normal view.

Import ReactNativeZoomableView:

import { ReactNativeZoomableView } from '@openspacelabs/react-native-zoomable-view';

Use the component:

<ReactNativeZoomableView
   maxZoom={1.5}
   minZoom={0.5}
   zoomStep={0.5}
   initialZoom={1}
   bindToBorders={true}
   onZoomAfter={this.logOutZoomState}
   style={{
      padding: 10,
      backgroundColor: 'red',
   }}
>
   <Text>This is the content</Text>
</ReactNativeZoomableView>

Example

Here is a full drop in example you can use in Expo, after installing the package.

import * as React from 'react';

import { StyleSheet, View, Text, Image } from 'react-native';
import { ReactNativeZoomableView } from '@openspacelabs/react-native-zoomable-view';

export default function App() {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Text>ReactNativeZoomableView</Text>
      <View style={{ borderWidth: 5, flexShrink: 1, height: 500, width: 310 }}>
        <ReactNativeZoomableView
          maxZoom={30}
          // Give these to the zoomable view so it can apply the boundaries around the actual content.
          // Need to make sure the content is actually centered and the width and height are
          // dimensions when it's rendered naturally. Not the intrinsic size.
          // For example, an image with an intrinsic size of 400x200 will be rendered as 300x150 in this case.
          // Therefore, we'll feed the zoomable view the 300x150 size.
          contentWidth={300}
          contentHeight={150}
        >
          <Image
            style={{ width: '100%', height: '100%', resizeMode: 'contain' }}
            source={{ uri: 'https://via.placeholder.com/400x200.png' }}
          />
        </ReactNativeZoomableView>
      </View>
    </View>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    alignItems: 'center',
    justifyContent: 'center',
    padding: 20,
  },
  box: {
    width: 60,
    height: 60,
    marginVertical: 20,
  },
});

Props

Options

These options can be used to limit and change the zoom behavior.

Static Pin Position

These optional props can be used to keep a "static" pin in the centre of the screen and move the map underneath it. This is very useful for maps.

Callbacks

These events can be used to work with data after specific events.

Methods

The following methods allow you to control the ZoomableView zoom level & position from your component. (think of control buttons, ...)

Properties

Example:

export default function App() {
  // you will need a reference to the ReactNativeZoomableView component
  const zoomableViewRef = createRef<ReactNativeZoomableView>();

  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <View style={styles.zoomWrapper}>
        <ReactNativeZoomableView
          ref={zoomableViewRef}
          bindToBorders={true}
        >
          <Text style={styles.caption}>HelloWorld</Text>
        </ReactNativeZoomableView>
      </View>

      <View style={styles.controlWrapperLeft}>
        {/* Here you see some examples of moveBy */}
        <Button onPress={() => zoomableViewRef.current!.moveBy(-30, 0)} title="⬅️" />
        <Button onPress={() => zoomableViewRef.current!.moveBy(30, 0)} title="➡️" />
        <Button onPress={() => zoomableViewRef.current!.moveBy(0, -30)} title="⬆️" />
        <Button onPress={() => zoomableViewRef.current!.moveBy(0, 30)} title="⬇️" />

        {/* Here you see an example of moveTo */}
        <Button onPress={() => zoomableViewRef.current!.moveTo(300, 200)} title="Move to" />
      </View>

      <View style={styles.controlWrapperRight}>
        {/* Here you see examples of zoomBy */}
        <Button onPress={() => zoomableViewRef.current!.zoomBy(-0.1)} title="-" />
        <Button onPress={() => zoomableViewRef.current!.zoomBy(0.1)} title="+" />

        {/* Here you see an example of zoomTo */}
        <Button onPress={() => zoomableViewRef.current!.zoomTo(1)} title="reset" />
      </View>
    </View>
  );
}

Pan Responder Hooks

Sometimes you need to change deeper level behavior, so we prepared these panresponder hooks for you.

zoomableViewEventObject

The zoomableViewEventObject object is attached to every event and represents the current state of our zoomable view.

   {
      zoomLevel: number,         // current level of zooming denoting the scale applied to the zoom subject (usually a value between minZoom and maxZoom)
      offsetX: number,           // current offset left
      offsetY: number,           // current offset top
      originalHeight: number,    // original height of the zoom subject
      originalWidth: number,     // original width of the zoom subject
      originalPageX: number,     // original absolute X of the zoom subject
      originalPageY: number,     // original absolite Y of the zoom subject
   }
