| title | Header |
Headers are navigation components that display information and actions relating to the current screen.
For quick setup we provide default components, which are React Native Elements Icon for left/right buttons and React Native Text for title. You can customize them with configuration objects passed in as props.
<Header
leftComponent={{ icon: 'menu', color: '#fff' }}
centerComponent={{ text: 'MY TITLE', style: { color: '#fff' } }}
rightComponent={{ icon: 'home', color: '#fff' }}
/><Header
placement="left"
leftComponent={{ icon: 'menu', color: '#fff' }}
centerComponent={{ text: 'MY TITLE', style: { color: '#fff' } }}
rightComponent={{ icon: 'home', color: '#fff' }}
/>You can pass in your custom components like this too.
<Header
leftComponent={<MyCustomLeftComponent />}
centerComponent={<MyCustomCenterComponent />}
rightComponent={<MyCustomRightComponent />}
/>You can also mix the content, for example you can have default components defined by configuration combined with custom components. Passing a render function that returns a React Element is valid too.
<Header
leftComponent={<MyCustomLeftComponent />}
centerComponent={this.renderCenterComponent()}
rightComponent={{ icon: 'home', style: { color: '#fff' } }}
/><Header>
<MyCustomLeftComponent />
<MyCustomCenterComponent />
<MyCustomRightComponent />
</Header>Components defined through children take precedence over components passed in as props, so in this case <MyCustomLeftComponent> will be rendered instead of leftComponent={{ icon: 'menu' }}.
<Header leftComponent={{ icon: 'menu' }}>
<MyCustomLeftComponent />
<MyCustomCenterComponent />
<MyCustomRightComponent />
</Header>We wanted the Header to be as customisable as possible, so you are free to try
different combinations of props. For example, if you want to change the left,
center, or right component's layout, you can adjust the containerStyle
<Header
statusBarProps={{ barStyle: 'light-content' }}
barStyle="light-content" // or directly
leftComponent={<MyCustomLeftComponent />}
centerComponent={{ text: 'MY TITLE', style: { color: '#fff' } }}
containerStyle={{
backgroundColor: '#3D6DCC',
justifyContent: 'space-around',
}}
