React Native Money is a simple component library that exposes a fully native TextInput component that uses currency formatting libraries provided with Android and iOS,
so as well as being performant it is also lightweight on your binary sizes. The component has an identitical prop signature and API to the default TextInput provided
with React Native, The only difference is that the value
prop accepts a Number
type and onChangeText
returns a number value and formatted string.
npm install --save @fouppy/react-native-money
or
yarn add @fouppy/react-native-money
Make sure to add the following to your Podfile
before running npx pod-install
:
pod 'React-RCTText', :path => '../node_modules/react-native/Libraries/Text', :modular_headers => true
You use the MoneyInput component like a normal TextInput from the React Native library with the exception that you pass a number to the value
prop.
You can also pass a locale idenitifer which is composed of the language along with the country, this in turn will change the how the currency is formatted, All possible locales can be read about here: Currency Locale Reference.
import {useState} from 'react'
import MoneyInput from '@fouppy/react-native-money'
const App = () => {
const [bill, setBill] = useState<number>()
return (
<MoneyInput
value={bill}
locale='en_US'
placeholder='$0.00'
onChangeText={(value: number, label: string) => {
setBill(value)
}}
/>
)
}
Make sure to mock the following to jest.setup.js
:
jest.mock('react-native-money', () => ({
default: jest.fn(),
}));
We'd like to express thanks to the developers of react-native-text-input-mask as this project started as a fork of that repo as their approach in monkeypatching the TextInput delegate was exactly what we needed.
