Install

Install via npm:

 npm install react-native-images-collage --save

Usage

To use in React Native. Import:

import { DynamicCollage, StaticCollage } from "react-native-images-collage";

Dynamic Collage

A dynamic collage includes panning, scaling, replacing and image arrangement.

  <DynamicCollage
    width={400}
    height={400}
    images={ photos }
    matrix={ [ 1, 1, 1, 1 ] }
    isEditButtonVisible: { true | false },
    EditButtonComponent: {() => <YourCustomComponent/>}
    editButtonPosition: { 'top-left' | 'top-right' | 'bottom-left' | 'bottom-right' },
    onEditButtonPress: { (m, i) => { collageRef.current.replaceImage( 'NewImage' , m , i ) } }
    />

Static Collage

A static collage does not include any panning, scaling or arrangement logic. Use this if you want to render multiple non-interactive collages. Same props as the dynamic collage.

<StaticCollage width={400} height={400} images={photos} matrix={[1, 1, 1, 1]} />

Layouts

Instead of building your own matrix of collage layouts. There is a JSON file you can import which includes multiple layouts. Up to 6 images.

import { LayoutData } from "react-native-images-collage";

You can then access a layout like so:

 matrix={ LayoutData[NumberOfImages][i].matrix }
 direction={ LayoutData[NumberOfImages][i].direction }

The number in the first bracket will be the configuration you want to access. E.g. configuration for 5 images. The second number is the specific layout you want to access e.g. [2, 2, 1]. You will have to inspect the JSON file to find this out.

Notes

If you want to capture the collage as a single image. Take a look at react-native-view-shot.
The number of images has to be equal to the sum of the matrix. e.g. Matrix is [ 1, 2, 1 ] ( 1 + 2 + 1 = 4), there has to be 4 images.
The collage scaling will not work when in a Modal component. Multiple touches are not registered.

## Replacing Images

There is a API in DynamicCollage which can be used to replace images. It can be accessed via reference. Setup the ref with the DynamicCollage like so:

const collageRef = useRef(null);

<DynamicCollage
  ref={collageRef}
  ...

You can then pass the source (url or file asset) m (matrix index) and i (relative image index) to the replaceImage function:

collageRef.current.replaceImage("https://picsum.photos/200", m, i);

Props

Prop	Type	Optional	Default	Description
width	float	No		Width of component. REQUIRED. Used to calculate image boundaries for switching.
height	float	No		Height of component. REQUIRED. Used to calculate image boundaries for switching.
images	array	No		Images for the collage.
matrix	array	No		An array [ 1, 1, 1 ] equal to the number of images. Used to define the layout.
isEditButtonVisible	boolean	No		A boolean value for the edit button. Used to display the edit button on layout.
EditButtonComponent	function	Yes		Custom Edit button component to be displayed on each image in the layout if the value `isEditButtonVisible` will be true.
editButtonPosition	enum	Yes	top-left	Enum value to set the position of `EditButtonComponent` on each collage image layout.
editButtonIndent	number	Yes	20	Number value to set the indentation of `EditButtonComponent` on each collage image layout.
onEditButtonPress	function	Yes		`EditButtonComponent` when pressed will be triggered to replace the respective image.
direction	string	Yes	row	Direction of the collage: 'row' or 'column'.
panningLeftPadding	number	Yes	15	Distance image can go beyond the left edge before it is restricted.
panningRightPadding	number	Yes	15	Distance image can go beyond the right edge before it is restricted.
panningTopPadding	number	Yes	15	Distance image can go beyond the top edge before it is restricted.
panningBottomPadding	number	Yes	15	Distance image can go beyond the bottom edge before it is restricted.
scaleAmplifier	number	Yes	1.0	Amplifier applied to scaling. Increase this for faster scaling of images.
retainScaleOnSwap	boolean	Yes	true	Keep the scale (width/height) of image when it is swapped.
longPressDelay	number	Yes	500	Delay before long press is activated.
longPressSensitivity	number	Yes	3	Sensitivity of the long press, float of 1 (low) to 10+ (high).
imageStyle	object	Yes	style	Default image style.
imageSelectedStyle	object	Yes	style	The style applied to the image when it has been selected. Long Pressed.
imageSwapStyle	object	Yes	style	The style applied to the target image which is being swapped. E.g red borders
imageSwapStyleReset	object	Yes	style	The reverse of imageSwapStyle to reset style after swap. Vital for direct manipulation.
separatorStyle	object	Yes	style	Style applied to image container. Use border width to create margin between images.
containerStyle	object	Yes	style	Style applied to the container of the collage. Collage border can be applied here.
imageContainerStyle	object	Yes	style	Style applied to each image container.
imageFocussedStyle	object	Yes	style	Style applied to the focused image container.
