@rn-common/toast

This component provides a simple and customizable toast notification system for React Native applications. It uses react-native-reanimated for animations and react-native-screens for overlay support.

Features

• Customizable Toast Styles: Define custom styles for different types of toasts.
• Animation Support: Includes slide-in and slide-out animations using react-native-reanimated.
• Auto Dismiss: Toasts automatically dismiss after a specified duration.
• Cross-Platform Support: Works on both iOS and Android with platform-specific optimizations.

Installation

Install using:

npx expo install @rn-common/toast react-native-reanimated react-native-safe-area-context react-native-screens

Usage

Importing the Component

import Toast from '@rn-common/toast'

Setting Up the Toast Provider

Place the Toast.Provider component at the root of your app, preferably at a high level in the component tree. Make sure to wrap the Toast.Provider component inside a SafeAreaProvider from react-native-safe-area-context to ensure the toast is displayed correctly.

import React from 'react'
import { SafeAreaProvider } from 'react-native-safe-area-context'
import Toast from '@rn-common/toast'

export default function App() {
  const toastConfig = {
    duration: 4000,
    toastMap: {
      success: {
        indicatorStyle: { backgroundColor: 'green' },
        textStyle: { color: 'white' },
      },
      error: {
        indicatorStyle: { backgroundColor: 'red' },
        textStyle: { color: 'white' },
      },
    },
  }

  return (
    <SafeAreaProvider>
      {/* Your other app components */}
      <Toast.Provider config={toastConfig} />
    </SafeAreaProvider>
  )
}

Showing a Toast

To show a toast, call the Toast.show method with the desired type and message:

import Toast from '@rn-common/toast'

// Example usage:
Toast.show('success', 'This is a success message!')
Toast.show('error', 'This is an error message!')

Configuration

The Toast.Provider accepts a config prop to customize toast behavior:

• duration (optional): Duration in milliseconds for how long the toast should be visible. Defaults to 3000 ms.
• toastMap: An object mapping toast types to their styles. Each entry can have indicatorStyle and textStyle properties.

Styling

Customize the styles by modifying the toastMap configuration:

• indicatorStyle: Style for the indicator on the left side of the toast.
• textStyle: Style for the toast message text.
