react-native-vectordrawable-android

React native vectordrawable enables you to use vector for android.

Important Notes

In order to work on Android < 5.0 implementation has been changed to use Vector-compat,
instead of native VectorDrawable.

Read carefully about the XML syntax needed for vector-compat compatibility.

Installation

npm install --save react-native-vectordrawable-android

or manually

git clone the directory to [node_modules/react-native-vectordrawable-android]

Add it to your android project

• In android/setting.gradle

...
include ':reactVectorDrawable', ':app'
project(':reactVectorDrawable').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-vectordrawable-android')

• In android/app/build.gradle

...
dependencies {
    ...
    compile project(':reactVectorDrawable')
}

• register module (in MainActivity.java)

import com.upinion.VectorDrawableAndroid.ReactVectorDrawableAndroidPackage;  // <--- import

public class MainActivity extends Activity implements DefaultHardwareBackBtnHandler {
  ......

  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    mReactRootView = new ReactRootView(this);

    mReactInstanceManager = ReactInstanceManager.builder()
      .setApplication(getApplication())
      .setBundleAssetName("index.android.bundle")
      .setJSMainModuleName("index.android")
      .addPackage(new MainReactPackage())
      .addPackage(new ReactVectorDrawableAndroidPackage())             // <------ add here
      .setUseDeveloperSupport(BuildConfig.DEBUG)
      .setInitialLifecycleState(LifecycleState.RESUMED)
      .build();

 
  ......

}

Example

Add vectorDrawable to res/drawable in your project.

var VectorDrawableView = require('react-native-vectordrawable-android');

<VectorDrawableView
    resourceName={'resourceNameofDrawable'}
    style={{height: 180, width: 180}}
>
    <Text>Example</Text>
</VectorDrawableView>

Dont forget to add size (will not show up if its not added).

Experimental Animations

(Make sure that your Drawable is an AnimatedVectorDrawable first ;))

Create your own animation. (you can add as many as you want)

<VectorDrawableView
    style={{height: 180, width: 180}}
    vectorAnimation={{
        resourceName: 'resourceNameofDrawable',
        animations: [
            {
                targetName: "NameOfTargetElement",
                propertyName: "NameOfPropertyToChange",
                duration: 1000, //miliseconds
                valueFrom: 0, //number
                valueTo: 10 //number
            },
            {
                targetName: "NameOfTargetElement2",
                propertyName: "NameOfPropertyToChange2",
                duration: 1000, //miliseconds
                valueFrom: 0, //number
                valueTo: 10 //number
            }
        ]
    }}
/>

Use your own res/anim Animation resources.

<VectorDrawableView
    style={{height: 180, width: 180}}
    vectorAnimation={{
        resourceName: 'resourceNameofDrawable',
        animations: [
            {
                targetName: "NameOfTargetElement",
                resourceName: "NameofAnimationResource"
            },
            {
                targetName: "NameOfTargetElement2",
                resourceName: "NameOfAnimationResource2"
            }
        ]
    }}
/>
