JSPM – react-native-drop-shadow@1.0.3

Package Exports

react-native-drop-shadow
react-native-drop-shadow/lib/module/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (react-native-drop-shadow) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

The problem is that a shadows does not work with React Native in Android. This view takes its children's, creates a bitmap representation, blur it and color it to styles shadow values like in iOS

Installation

yarn add react-native-drop-shadow

If you using React-native < 0.76:

yarn add react-native-drop-shadow@1.0.0

If you using minSdkVersion = 16:

yarn add react-native-drop-shadow@0.0.4

Limitations

Android has a bitmap limitation of 2048x2048, but this might depend on API version.
Uses Bitmap Rendering to simulate the shadows which can be performance heavy if multiple shadows and animations are rendered at the same time.

Usage

import DropShadow from 'react-native-drop-shadow';

export default function usage() {
  return (
    <DropShadow
      style={{
        shadowColor: '#000',
        shadowOffset: {
          width: 0,
          height: 0,
        },
        shadowOpacity: 1,
        shadowRadius: 5,
      }}
    >
      ...
    </DropShadow>
  );
}

Usage with FlatList

export default function withFlatList() {
  return (
    <FlatList
      data={['']}
      keyExtractor={(item, index) => 'List-' + index}
      CellRendererComponent={DropShadow} // <==== add line
      renderItem={({ item, index }) => (
        <DropShadow
          style={{
            shadowColor: '#000',
            shadowOffset: {
              width: 0,
              height: 0,
            },
            shadowOpacity: 1,
            shadowRadius: 5,
          }}
        >
          ...
        </DropShadow>
      )}
    />
  );
}

Usage with Animated Views

To make this work in place of an Animated.View, you need to use Animated.createAnimatedComponent to create an animatable version of DropShadow. For example:

const AnimatedDropShadow = Animated.createAnimatedComponent(DropShadow);

export default function withAnimatedViews() {
  return (
    <AnimatedDropShadow
      style={{
        shadowColor: '#000',
        shadowOffset: {
          width: 0,
          height: 0,
        },
        shadowOpacity: 1,
        shadowRadius: 5,
      }}
    >
      ...
    </AnimatedDropShadow>
  );
}

You can then use AnimatedDropShadow in place of Animated.View.
