Slider

A component used to select a single value from a range of values.

Usage

The example below shows how to use Slider to change a value used by Text. The value is stored using the state of the root component (App). The same component subscribes to the onValueChange of Slider and changes the value using setState.

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View, Slider } from 'react-native';

export default class App extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      value: 50
    };
  }

  change(value) {
    this.setState(() => {
      return {
        value: parseFloat(value)
      };
    });
  }

  render() {
    const { value } = this.state;
    return (
      <View style={styles.container}>
        <Text style={styles.text}>{String(value)}</Text>
        <Slider
          step={1}
          maximumValue={100}
          onValueChange={this.change.bind(this)}
          value={value}
        />
      </View>
    );
  }
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    flexDirection: 'column',
    justifyContent: 'center'
  },
  text: {
    fontSize: 50,
    textAlign: 'center'
  }
});
