I have a simple icon button as follows :
class SideIcon extends Component {
render() {
return (
<TouchableOpacity onPress={console.log('puff')} style={styles.burgerButton}>
<Icon name="bars" style={styles.burgerIcon}/>
</TouchableOpacity>
);
}
}
It's called from the following component :
export default test = React.createClass({
getInitialState: function() {
return {
isModalOpen: false
}
},
_openModal() {
this.setState({
isModalOpen: true
});
},
_closeModal() {
this.setState({
isModalOpen: false
});
},
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.containerHead} keyboardShouldPersistTaps={true}>
**<SideIcon openModal={this._openModal} closeModal={this._closeModal} />**
<Text style={styles.logoName}>DareMe</Text>
<SideBar isVisible={this.state.isModalOpen} />
</View>
);
}
});
But the onPress
on the TouchableOpacity
never works. Where I'm going wrong ? Although It shows console statements during the component load.
You should bind a function that invokes your code.
For example:
<TouchableOpacity onPress={() => console.log('puff')} style={styles.burgerButton}>
<Icon name="bars" style={styles.burgerIcon}/>
</TouchableOpacity>
A better way is to give it a reference to a component function
class SideIcon extends Component {
handleOnPress = () => {
console.log('puff')
}
render() {
return (
<TouchableOpacity onPress={this.handleOnPress} style={styles.burgerButton}>
<Icon name="bars" style={styles.burgerIcon}/>
</TouchableOpacity>
);
}
}
