Shared element for React Navigation >= 5.x

Upgrading from 5.0.0-alpha1 or the early 3.0.0 (prerelease) version? Be sure to checkout the migration guide!

Installation

Install the latest shared-element libraries.

$ yarn add react-navigation-shared-element react-native-shared-element

Ensure that the native extensions are linked into your project. This will be already done for you when using Expo 馃憤

Finally, make sure that react-navigation is installed and working correctly.

Usage

In order to enable shared element transitions, the following steps need to be performed

  • Create a stack-navigator using createSharedElementStackNavigator
  • Wrap your component with <SharedElement> and provide a unique id
  • Define a sharedElements config on the Screen that you want to animate
// App.js
import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native';
import { createSharedElementStackNavigator } from 'react-navigation-shared-element';

const Stack = createSharedElementStackNavigator();

const App = () => {
  return (
    <NavigationContainer>
      <Stack.Navigator initialRouteName="List">
        <Stack.Screen name="List" component={ListScreen} />
        <Stack.Screen
          name="Detail"
          component={DetailScreen}
          sharedElements={(route, otherRoute, showing) => {
            const { item } = route.params;
            return [`item.${item.id}.photo`];
          }}
        />
      </Stack.Navigator>
    </NavigationContainer>
  );
};
// ListScreen.js
import { SharedElement } from 'react-navigation-shared-element';

class ListScreen extends React.Component {
  renderItem(item) {
    const { navigation } = this.props;
    return (
      <TouchableOpacity onPress={() => navigation.push('Detail', { item })}>
        <SharedElement id={`item.${item.id}.photo`}>
          <Image source={item.photoUrl} />
        </SharedElement>
      </TouchableOpacity>
    );
  }
}
// DetailScreen.js
const DetailScreen = props => {
  const { item } = props.route.params;
  return (
    <SharedElement id={`item.${item.id}.photo`}>
      <Image source={item.photoUrl} />
    </SharedElement>
  );
};

Documentation

createSharedElementStackNavigator

The createSharedElementStackNavigator function wraps an existing stack-navigator and enables shared element transitions for it.

It performs the following actions

  • Creates a top-level renderer to host the shared element transitions
  • Wraps each route with a shared element scene
  • Detects route changes and trigger shared element transitions

SharedElement component

The <SharedElement> component accepts a single child and a "shared" id. The child is the element that is made available for doing shared element transitions. It can be any component, like a <View>, <Text> or <Image>. In case the wrapped view is an <Image>, special handling is performed to deal with image loading and resizing.

This component is synonymous for the <SharedElement> component as defined in react-native-shared-element. Instead of a node it uses an id to create a higher lever API which automatically ties in with the scenes created by createSharedElementStackNavigator.

Props

Property Type Description
children element A single child component, which must map to a real view in the native view hierarchy
id string Unique id of the shared element
View props... Other props supported by View

sharedElements function

In order to trigger shared element transitions between screens, a sharedElements function needs to be defined on one of the two screens. For each screen transition, both screens are evaluated and checked whether they have a sharedElements function. The screen that is being shown is evaluated first, followed by the screen that is being hidden. If undefined is returned, evaluation continues at the other screen.

The sharedElements function receives 3 arguments

Argument Type Description
route Route Route prop of the current screen. You can use this to get the params of the screen using route.params, or the route-name using route.name
otherRoute Route The route prop of the other screen. You can use this to get the params of that screen using route.params, or the route-name using route.name
showing boolean true when this screen is being shown, and false when this screen is being hidden.

The return value should be either undefined or an array of shared-element configs or identifiers. Specifying a string-identifier is shorthand for [{id: 'myid'}].

Basic example

import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native';
import { createSharedElementStackNavigator } from 'react-navigation-shared-element';

const Stack = createSharedElementStackNavigator();

const App = () => {
  return (
    <NavigationContainer>
      <Stack.Navigator initialRouteName="List">
        <Stack.Screen name="List" component={ListScreen} />
        <Stack.Screen
          name="Detail"
          component={DetailScreen}
          sharedElements={(route, otherRoute, showing) => {
            const { item } = route.params;
            return [`item.${item.id}.photo`];
          }}
        />
      </Stack.Navigator>
    </NavigationContainer>
  );
};

Only transition when coming from a specific route

If you only want to show a transition when pushing from a particular screen, then use the route-name and showing argument.

<Stack.Screen
  name="Detail"
  component={DetailScreen}
  sharedElements={(route, otherRoute, showing) => {
    if (otherRoute.name === 'List' && showing) {
      const { item } = route.params;
      return [`item.${item.id}.photo`];
    }
  }}
/>

Customize the animation

If the source- and target elements are visually distinct, the consider using a cross-fade animation.

<Stack.Screen
  name="Detail"
  component={DetailScreen}
  sharedElements={(route, otherRoute, showing) => {
    const { item } = route.params;
    return [
      {
        id: `item.${item.id}.photo`,
        animation: 'fade',
        // resize: 'clip'
        // align: ''left-top'
      },
    ];
  }}
/>

TypeScript

The createSharedElementStackNavigator has a generic parameter which allows you to statically type the screens and route params just like with createStackNavigator:

type SharedStackParams = {
  List: undefined;
  Details: {
    id: number;
    src: string;
  };
};

const { Navigator, Screen } = createSharedElementStackNavigator<SharedStackParams>();

export default () => (
  <Navigator initialRouteName="List">
    <Screen name="List" component={ListScreen} />
    <Screen
      name="Details"
      component={DetailsScreen}
      initialParams={{ id: 0, src: 'unknown' }} {/* route params are statically typed */}
    />
  </Navigator>
);

Static shared elements config

A sharedElements function can also be defined on the component itself, instead of the navigator Screen, but this is no longer considered good practice.

const DetailScreen = () => {
  return (...)
};
DetailScreen.sharedElements = (route, otherRoute, showing) => {
  const { item } = route.params;
  return [`item.${item.id}.photo`];;
}

The following fields can be specified in a config item

Field Type Description
id string Id that corresponds to the id specified in the <SharedElement> component
otherId string Optional id that corresponds to the id specified in the other screen.
animation move | fade Type of animation to perform (default = move), see SharedElementAnimation
resize auto | stretch | clip | none Resize behavior of the transition (default = auto), see SharedElementResize
align auto | top-left | ... Align behavior of the transition (default = auto), see SharedElementAlign
