Popover is a great way to show a list of items for users to choose from. With component you can add a very simple pop over screen with a list of items as the child component and access the selected item from the parent component. It is a very easy way of adding a list of options to the UI.

The main properties to send from the parent component:

• list list of items to choose from
• isVisible indicator that makes the popover visible or not
• onClick callback function that takes an item parameter to handle the click operation
• onClose callback function to set the isVisible to false to close the popover

Usage

import React from 'react';
import {StyleSheet, Text, View, TouchableHighlight} from 'react-native';
import ListPopover from 'react-native-list-popover';

const items = ['Item 1', 'Item 2'];

export default class App extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      isVisible: false
    };
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <View style={styles.container}>
        <TouchableHighlight
          style={styles.button}
          onPress={() => this.setState({isVisible: true})}>
          <Text>{this.state.item || 'Select'}</Text>
        </TouchableHighlight>
        <ListPopover
          list={items}
          isVisible={this.state.isVisible}
          onClick={(item) => this.setState({item: item})}
          onClose={() => this.setState({isVisible: false})}/>
      </View>
    );
  }
