React Native Super Grid

Responsive Grid View for React Native.

Getting Started

This library export two components - FlatGrid (similar to FlatList) and SectionGrid (similar to SectionList). Both components render a Grid layout that adapts itself to various screen resolutions.

Instead of passing an itemPerRow argument, you pass itemDimension and each item will be rendered with a dimension size equal to or more than (to fill the screen) the given dimension.

Internally, these components use the native FlatList and SectionList.

Demo Snack

Version 3.x, please refer v3 branch for documentation

Version 2.x and older, please refer v2 branch for documentation

v3 to v4 Migration

• Rename FlatList's items prop to data.
• v4 is based on React hooks, and requires React Native version > 0.59.
• Methods called on SectionList/FlatList refs can be called directly now (because of forwardRef). i.e Instead of ref.current.sectionList.scrollToLocation, use ref.current.scrollToLocation.

Installing

You can install the package via npm.

npm install react-native-super-grid

Usage (FlatGrid)

import { FlatGrid } from 'react-native-super-grid';

<FlatGrid
  itemDimension={130}
  data={[1,2,3,4,5,6]}
  renderItem={({ item }) => (<Text>{item}</Text>)}
/>

Usage (SimpleGrid)

This component is similar to the FlatGrid but does not use a FlatList, instead, it simply maps over the data items. This is useful if you need to put a grid inside a ScrollView or if you have a small array.

import { SimpleGrid } from 'react-native-super-grid';

<SimpleGrid
  itemDimension={130}
  data={[1,2,3,4,5,6]}
  renderItem={({ item }) => (<Text>{item}</Text>)}
/>

Usage (SectionGrid)

import { SectionGrid } from 'react-native-super-grid';

<SectionGrid
  itemDimension={130}
  sections={[
    {
      title: 'Numbers',
      data: [1,2,3,4,5,6],
    },
    {
      title: 'Alphabets',
      data: ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E'],
    },
  ]}
  renderItem={({ item }) => (<Text>{item}</Text>)}
  renderSectionHeader={({ section }) => (
    <Text style={{ fontSize: 20 }}>{section.title}</Text>
  )}
/>

Properties

Property	Type	Default Value	Description
renderItem	Function		Function to render each object. Should return a react native component. Same signature as that of FlatList/SectionList's renderItem (with an additional key rowIndex).
data (for FlatGrid) sections (for SectionGrid)	Array		Data to be rendered. renderItem will be called with each item in this array. Same signature as that of FlatList/SectionList.
itemDimension	Number	120	Minimum width or height for each item in pixels (virtual).
fixed	Boolean	false	If true, the exact itemDimension will be used and won't be adjusted to fit the screen.
spacing	Number	10	Spacing between each item.
style	FlatList styles (Object)		Styles for the container. Styles for an item should be applied inside renderItem. Note: If you set adjustGridToStyles to true then padding added in this prop will be used to adjust the total dimensions of the grid to reflect the padding in this style object.
additionalRowStyle	styles (Object)		Additional styles for rows (rows render multiple items within), apart from the generated ones.
itemContainerStyle	styles (Object)		Style for item's container. Not needed for most cases.
staticDimension	Number		Specifies a static width or height for the container. If not passed, maxDimension will be used.
maxDimension	Number		Specifies a maximum width or height for the container. If not passed, full width/height of the screen will be used. Note: If you set adjustGridToStyles to true then you can alternatively use the contentContainerStyle prop and set maxWidth or maxHeight.
horizontal	boolean	false	If true, the grid will be scrolling horizontally. If you want your item to fill the height when using a horizontal grid, you should give it a height of '100%'. This prop doesn't affect the SectionGrid, which only scrolls vertically.
onLayout	Function		Optional callback ran by the internal FlatList or SectionList's onLayout function, thus invoked on mount and layout changes.
listKey	String		A unique identifier for the Grid. This key is necessary if you are nesting multiple FlatGrid/SectionGrid inside another Grid (or any VirtualizedList).
keyExtractor	Function		A function (item, rowItemIndex) => {String} that should return a unique key for the item passed.
invertedRow	boolean		Reverses the direction of row items. It can be used with the inverted property.
maxItemsPerRow	number		Specifies the maximum number of items to render per row
contentContainerStyle	styles (Object)		This is the regular FlatList/SectionList prop. If you set adjustGridToStyles to true and specify maxWidth or maxHeight it will be used the same as maxDimension. In addition, padding added here will be used to adjust the total dimensions of the grid to reflect the padding in this style object.
adjustGridToStyles	boolean		Set to true when you want the library to automatically adjust the total dimensions of the grid based on style and contentContainerStyle props
customFlatList (for FlatGrid)	ElementType		Replaces FlatList in FlatGrid with ElementType. E.g. Animated.FlatList
customSectionList (for SectionGrid)	ElementType		Replaces SectionList in SectionGrid with ElementType. E.g. Animated.SectionList
onItemsPerRowChange	Function		A callback (itemsPerRow: number) => void that is called when number of items per row is determined.

All additional props you pass will be passed on to the internal FlatList/SectionList. This means you can make use of various props and methods like ListHeaderComponent, onEndReached, onRefresh...etc. While these are not tested for compatibility, most of them should work as expected.

In SectionGrid, section argument in methods like renderSectionHeader, renderSectionFooter, ItemSeparatorComponent will slightly different from the actual section you passed. The data key in the section will be the grouped versions of items (items that go in one row), and the original list of items can be found in originalData key. All other keys will remain intact.

Full width items

To make an item full width, simply include _fullWidth: true in the data object for that item. For example:

{ name: 'TURQUOISE', code: '#1abc9c', _fullWidth: true }
