Implement pull to refresh FlatList

Question

please help me out to implement pull to refresh on my app, I'm kinda new to react native, thanks. I don't know how to handle onRefresh and refreshing.

class HomeScreen extends Component {
  state = { refreshing: false }

  _renderItem = ({ item }) => <ImageGrid item={item} />

  _handleRefresh = () => {

  };

  render() {
    const { data } = this.props;
    if (data.loading) {
      return (
        <Root>
          <Loading size="large" />
        </Root>
      )
    }
 return (
   <Root>
     <HomeHeader />
     <FlatList
       contentContainerStyle={{ alignSelf: 'stretch' }}
       data={data.getPosts}
       keyExtractor={item => item._id}
       renderItem={this._renderItem}
       numColumns={3}
       refreshing={this.state.refreshing}
       onRefresh={this._handleRefresh}
     />
   </Root>
  );
 }
}

export default graphql(GET_POSTS_QUERY)(HomeScreen);

Set variable

  this.state = { 
     isFetching: false,
  }

Create Refresh function

  onRefresh() {
       this.setState({isFetching: true,},() => {this.getApiData();});
  }

And in last set onRefresh and refreshing in FlatList.

  <FlatList
      data={ this.state.FlatListItems }
      onRefresh={() => this.onRefresh()}
      refreshing={this.state.isFetching}

After fetching Data in function getApiData Make sure to set false isFetching.

this.setState({ isFetching: false })
