React Native Push Notification Popup

Features

• Support "pan" gesture
• Support "onPress" gesture feedback
• Written in pure-JS using official react-native Animation package
  • Which means it supports all Expo/CRNA apps
• Support iPhone X, XS, Max (yeah that notch)
• Support Android native "elevation"

Motivations

Blog post

1. In some apps, you may just want to display reminders to user, without going through those troublesome push notification setups
2. Expo/CNRA apps cannot display push notification while app is in foreground
3. Even if you eject, you still need to configure iOS and Android separately with native codes

This package is here to help. Just show your own notification popup to your users!

Installation

yarn add react-native-push-notification-popup  # recommended
npm install react-native-push-notification-popup --save

Usage

Declare Component

Put it in a wrapper component. (Maybe where you handle your incoming push notifications)

  render() {
    return (
      <View style={styles.container}>
        <NotificationPopup ref={ref => this.popup = ref} />
        <MaybeYourNavigator />
      </View>
    );
  }

Show it!

componentDidMount() {
  this.popup.show({
    onPress: function() {console.log('Pressed')},
    appIconSource: require('./assets/icon.jpg'),
    appTitle: 'Some App',
    timeText: 'Now',
    title: 'Hello World',
    body: 'This is a sample message.\nTesting emoji 😀',
  });
}

Props

(Customizing options coming soon)
