Installation

npm install react-native-animated-colors

Usage

import AnimatedColorView from 'react-native-animated-colors';

Properties

name	description	type	default
colors	List of background colors	Array	[ ]
activeIndex	Active index of color to be displayed	Number	0
duration	Duration of animation on transition	Number	500
easing	Animation easing function	EasingFunction	Easing.linear
loop	Loop the background colors	Boolean	false
startDelay	Loop start delay	Number	0
animatedStyle	Animating view style	Object	{}
style	Container view style	Object	{}

Usage

• colors: An array of background colors that you want to animate. For example: ['green', 'blue', 'red'].

• activeIndex: Set this property to the index of the color you want to be displayed initially. For example, if activeIndex is 0, setting it to 1 will transition the background color from green to blue.

• duration: Specify the duration (in milliseconds) of the color transition animation.

• easing: The easing function for the animation. You can use standard easing functions provided by React Native or provide your custom easing function.

• loop: When set to true, the background color will loop through the provided colors.

• startDelay: If you want to introduce a delay before animating the colors, set this property with the desired delay duration (in milliseconds).

• animatedStyle: Use this property to define additional style properties for the animating view.

• style: Set the style properties for the container view.

Example

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { Button, StyleSheet, Text, View } from 'react-native';
import AnimatedColorView from 'react-native-animated-colors';

const TestAnimation = () => {
  const [activeIndex, setindex] = useState(0);
  const [loop, setLoop] = useState(false);
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <AnimatedColorView
        activeIndex={activeIndex}
        colors={['green', 'blue', 'red']}
        loop={loop}
        style={styles.containerStyle}
        animatedStyle={styles.animatedStyle}
        duration={500}
        // Supports all View Props
        onTouchStart={() => console.log('pressed')}
      >
        <Text style={styles.text}>ASWIN C</Text>
      </AnimatedColorView>

      {!loop && <View style={styles.btn}>
        <Button title="green" onPress={() => setindex(0)} />
        <Button title="blue" onPress={() => setindex(1)} />
        <Button title="red" onPress={() => setindex(2)} />
      </View>}
      <Button title={`loop (${loop})`} onPress={() => setLoop(val => !val)} />
    </View>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    alignItems: 'center',
    justifyContent: 'center'
  },
  containerStyle: {
    height: 200,
    width: 200,
    alignItems: 'center',
    justifyContent: 'center',
    borderRadius: 20,
    backgroundColor: 'pink',
    marginBottom: 50,
  },
  animatedStyle: {
    borderWidth: 5,
    borderColor: 'grey',
    borderRadius: 100
  },
  text: {
    fontSize: 20,
  },
  btn: {
    width: '100%',
    flexDirection: 'row',
    justifyContent: 'space-evenly',
    marginBottom: 20
  },
});

export default TestAnimation;
