Cross-Platform iOS style picker for react native.

Small, Performant

The Native picker on Android is a modal / dropdown design which is vastly different from the native iOS picker. In my current project we wanted a design more similar to the iOS native picker, and thus I created this Scroll Picker as a replacement on Android, but it works equally well on iOS for instance as an alternative to @react-native-community/picker native iOS picker module.

Install into project

yarn add react-native-value-picker

import and usage

import {ScrollPicker} from 'react-native-value-picker';

        ...

        <ScrollPicker
          // We need to tell the picker the current picked value
          currentValue={pickedValue}
          // The picker is a pure component so we need to tell it
          // what data it needs to subscribe to, otherwise it won't
          // re-render
          extraData={pickedValue}
          // The array of objects which makes up the list
          list={MOCK_DATA}
          // Callback function to update the picked value
          onItemPress={setPickedValue}
          // Changes the text color in the list
          labelColor="blue"
          // Changes color of the row separator in the list
          separatorColor="purple"
          // Changes color of the text of the picked item in the list
          selectedColor="red"
        />

        ...

Picker List Data Structure

the list prop requires an array of Objects according to the below structure.

  • value: the API value
  • label: the text rendered into the picker list.
export const MOCK_DATA = [
  {
    value: 1,
    label: 'Number 1',
  },
  {
    value: 2,
    label: 'Number 2',
  },
  {
    value: 15,
    label: 'Number 15',
  },
  {
    value: 16,
    label: 'Number 16',
  },
];

ScrollPicker Props

Prop Description
currentValue Tells the picker the current picked value
extraData The underlying RN component which creates the list is FlatList. Which means, as a FlatList it is a pure component and won't re-render, unless it subscribes to a piece of data that will trigger a re-render.
list The array of objects which makes up the list. Each Object in the Array needs to have a value-field, and a label-field. Value is the API value which the developer needs to user to pick. Label is the verbose friendly String which is displayed to the user.
onItemPress Callback which get's executed when user presses an Item in the picker list.
labelColor Changes the un-picked text color of the Items in the list
separatorColor Changes color of the separator lines between the Items in the list.
selectedColor Changes the picked Item text color

Example Code

BasicExample.js

import React, {useState} from 'react';
import {View, Text, StyleSheet} from 'react-native';

import {ScrollPicker} from 'react-native-value-picker';

import {MOCK_DATA} from './mockData';

function BasicExample() {
  const [pickedValue, setPickedValue] = useState(7);

  return (
    <View style={styles.Container}>
      <Text style={styles.Title}>Basic Example</Text>
      <Text>Current Value Picked: {pickedValue}</Text>

      <View style={styles.PickerContainer}>
        <ScrollPicker
          currentValue={pickedValue}
          extraData={pickedValue}
          list={MOCK_DATA}
          onItemPress={setPickedValue}
        />
      </View>
      <Text style={{fontSize: 22, textAlign: 'center'}}>
        We can customize the look by setting the labelColor, separatorColor and
        selectedColor props
      </Text>
      <View style={styles.PickerContainer}>
        <ScrollPicker
          // We need to tell the picker the current picked value
          currentValue={pickedValue}
          // The picker is a pure component so we need to tell it
          // what data it needs to subscribe to, otherwise it won't
          // re-render
          extraData={pickedValue}
          // The array of objects which makes up the list
          list={MOCK_DATA}
          // Callback function to update the picked value
          onItemPress={setPickedValue}
          // Changes the text color in the list
          labelColor="blue"
          // Changes color of the row separator in the list
          separatorColor="purple"
          // Changes color of the text of the picked item in the list
          selectedColor="red"
        />
      </View>
    </View>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({

});

export default BasicExample;

Bottom Sheet Example

Note: The bottom sheet component is not included in the package. I'm using react-native-raw-bottom-sheet

import React, {useRef, useState} from 'react';
import {View, Text, Button, StyleSheet} from 'react-native';
import RBSheet from 'react-native-raw-bottom-sheet';

import {ScrollPicker} from 'react-native-value-picker';

import {MOCK_DATA} from './mockData';

function BottomSheetExample() {
  const [pickedValue, setPickedValue] = useState(7);
  const refRBSheet = useRef();

  return (
    <View style={styles.Container}>

    ...

      <RBSheet
        ref={refRBSheet}
        closeOnDragDown={true}
        closeOnPressMask={true}
        height={300}
        customStyles={{
          draggableIcon: {
            backgroundColor: '#000',
          },
          container: {
            borderRadius: 12,
          },
        }}>
        {/* Start of Scroll Picker */}
        {/*
            The underlying FlatList is not wrapped with a View.
            So to align it in the sheet I wrap the picker and control
            the positioning. I like that approach because devs has full control
            over how the picker is placed & aligned.
        */}
        <View style={styles.SheetView}>
          <ScrollPicker
            // We need to tell the picker the current picked value
            currentValue={pickedValue}
            // The picker is a pure component so we need to tell it
            // what data it needs to subscribe to, otherwise it won't
            // re-render
            extraData={pickedValue}
            // The array of objects which makes up the list
            list={MOCK_DATA}
            // Callback function to update the picked value
            onItemPress={setPickedValue}
          />
        </View>
        {/* End of Scroll Picker */}
      </RBSheet>
    </View>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
... see the example file for styles ...
});

export default BottomSheetExample;
