The syntax is quite similar to Sass and other React styling libraries.
npm install react-look-native --save
import React, { Component, PropTypes } from 'react'
import { View, Text } from 'react-native'
import look, { StyleSheet } from 'react-look-native'
class Header extends Component {
static defaultProps = { size: 24 };
static propTypes = { size: PropTypes.number.isRequired };
state = { status: 'active' };
render() {
return (
// Styles are basically applied using the `style` property
// Same way as React Native does by default
<View style={styles.header}>
<Text style={styles.title}>
{this.props.title}
</Text>
</View>
)
}
}
// generates objects for each selector
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
header: {
color: 'red',
// You can also use mixins with the same selector.
// They'll get split intelligently and evaluated on render
'status=active': {
backgroundColor: 'green',
'size>=20': {
backgroundColor: 'pink'
}
}
},
title: {
fontWeight: 800,
// use functions to inject props, state or context values
fontSize: (props, state, context) => props.size * state.zoom
}
})
export default look(Header)
Finally you only need to wrap your application with LookRoot.
import { Presets, LookRoot } from 'react-look-native'
import React, { Component } from 'react'
import { AppRegistry } from 'react-native'
import Header from './Header'
// A simple basic app just showing the Header with "Hello World"
const App = () => <Header title="Hello World" />
// We ust create another container to wrap our App
const Container = () => (
<LookRoot config={Presets['react-native']}>
<App />
</LookRoot>
)
AppRegistry.registerComponent('native', () => Container)
Right now I am working to get a running React Native example ready. Stay tuned.
