I currently have an Image wrapped inside of a TouchableOpacity tag. The image is of a sound icon, and when the user clicks it, I would like the icon to switch between the "sound on" icon and the "sound off" icon. The relevant code can be seen below. I'm not worrying about the toggle portion of it yet, I just would like to be able to switch the image when tapping it.
Simplified code is below:
const soundImg = require('../images/sound.png');
const muteImg = require('../images/sound-mute.png');
class HomeScreen extends Component {
static navigationOptions = {
header: null,
};
render(){
let imageXml = <Image
style={ homeStyles.optionsImage }
source={ gearImg }
/>;
return (
<View style={ commonStyles.container }>
<View style={ commonStyles.footer }>
<TouchableOpacity
style={ homeStyles.soundButton }
onPress={ () => imageXml.source = { muteImg } }>
{ imageXml }
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</View>
);
}
}
To set an onClick listener on an image in React: Set the onClick prop on the image element. The function you pass to the prop will get called every time the image is clicked.
We have to set initial state value inside constructor function and set click event handler of the element upon which click, results in changing state. Then pass the function to the click handler and change the state of the component inside the function using setState.
Tag is JSX Syntax so you cannot edit its property by .(dot) syntax. Following is the correct way to do it.
import soundImg from '../images/sound.png';
import muteImg from '../images/sound-mute.png';
class HomeScreen extends Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = { showSoundImg: true };
}
static navigationOptions = {
header: null,
};
renderImage() = {
var imgSource = this.state.showSoundImg? soundImg : muteImg;
return (
<Image
style={ homeStyles.optionsImage }
source={ imgSource }
/>
);
}
render(){
return (
<View style={ commonStyles.container }>
<View style={ commonStyles.footer }>
<TouchableOpacity
style={ homeStyles.soundButton }
onPress={ () => this.setState({ showSoundImg: !this.state.showSoundImg }) }
/>
{this.renderImage()}
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</View>
);
}
}
I'm using the following way and its working fine.
class HomeScreen extends Component {
static navigationOptions = {
header: null,
};
constructor() {
super();
this.state = {
flagImage:true
};
}
render(){
let imageXml = <Image
style={ homeStyles.optionsImage }
source={ gearImg }
/>;
return (
<View style={ commonStyles.container }>
<View style={ commonStyles.footer }>
<TouchableOpacity
style={ homeStyles.soundButton }
onPress={ this.changeImage }>
<Image source={ this.state.flagImage === true ?
require('../images/sound.png') :
require('../images/sound-mute.png')}
/>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</View>
);
}
}
changeImage() {
this.setState({
flagImage:!this.state.flagImage
});
}
