This module allows you to access additional display metrics on Android devices. (RN 0.29.0+)
- Actual width and height of the screen (including elements such as soft menu bar)
- Soft menu height
- Status bar height
- Smart bar height(MeiZu)
There is currently a bug in React Native where Dimensions.get('window').height
sometimes returns
the wrong value.
Also, some apps may want to set the background of status bar and soft menu bar to transparent, thus the top-level view needs to fill up the real screen size.
-
In
android/setting.gradle
... include ':ExtraDimensions', ':app' project(':ExtraDimensions').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-extra-dimensions-android/android')
-
In
android/app/build.gradle
... dependencies { ... compile project(':ExtraDimensions') }
-
Register module (in MainApplication.java)
import ca.jaysoo.extradimensions.ExtraDimensionsPackage; // <--- import public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication { ...... protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() { return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList( new MainReactPackage(), new ExtraDimensionsPackage() // <--- add here ); } ...... }
Whenever you want to use it within React Native code now you can:
var ExtraDimensions = require('react-native-extra-dimensions-android');
There is only one method get(dimension: string)
that takes in a dimension name, and returns its value as a number
.
Supported dimensions are:
REAL_WINDOW_HEIGHT
- Actual height of screen including system decor elementsREAL_WINDOW_WIDTH
- Actual width of screen including system decor elementsSTATUS_BAR_HEIGHT
- Height of the status barSOFT_MENU_BAR_HEIGHT
- Height of the soft menu bar (supported on most new Android devices)SMART_BAR_HEIGHT
- Height of the MeiZu's device smart bar
