A set of UI components, in the purpose of introducing Material Design to apps built with React Native, quickly and painlessly.
First, cd to your RN project directory, and install RNMK through rnpm . If you don't have rnpm, you can install RNMK from npm with the command npm i -S react-native-material-kit and link it manually (see below).
rnpm install react-native-material-kit
$npm install -S react-native-material-kit$react-native link react-native-material-kit
node_modules/react-native-material-kit/iOS/RCTMaterialKit.xcodeproj to your xcode project, usually under the Libraries grouplibRCTMaterialKit.a (from Products under RCTMaterialKit.xcodeproj) to build target's Linked Frameworks and Libraries listAssuming you have CocoaPods installed, create a PodFile like this in your app's project directory. You can leave out the modules you don't need.
xcodeproj 'path/to/YourProject.xcodeproj/'
pod 'React', :subspecs => ['Core', 'RCTText', 'RCTWebSocket'], :path => 'node_modules/react-native'
pod 'react-native-material-kit', :path => 'node_modules/react-native-material-kit'
post_install do |installer|
target = installer.pods_project.targets.select{|t| 'React' == t.name}.first
phase = target.new_shell_script_build_phase('Run Script')
phase.shell_script = "if nc -w 5 -z localhost 8081 ; then\n if ! curl -s \"http://localhost:8081/status\" | grep -q \"packager-status:running\" ; then\n echo \"Port 8081 already in use, packager is either not running or not running correctly\"\n exit 2\n fi\nelse\n open $SRCROOT/../node_modules/react-native/packager/launchPackager.command || echo \"Can't start packager automatically\"\nfi"
end
Now run pod install. This will create an Xcode workspace containing all necessary native files, including react-native-material-kit. From now on open YourProject.xcworkspace instead of YourProject.xcodeproject in Xcode. Because React Native's iOS code is now pulled in via CocoaPods, you also need to remove the React, RCTImage, etc. subprojects from your app's Xcode project, in case they were added previously.
rnpm install react-native-material-kit
$npm install -S react-native-material-kit$react-native link react-native-material-kit
android/settings.gradle:
```gradle
include ':RNMaterialKit'
project(':RNMaterialKit').projectDir = file('../node_modules/react-native-material-kit/android')1. Declare the dependency in your `android/app/build.gradle`gradle
dependencies {
...
compile project(':RNMaterialKit')
}
``
1. Importcom.github.xinthink.rnmk.ReactMaterialKitPackageand register it in yourMainActivity` (or equivalent, RN >= 0.32 MainApplication.java):
java
@Override
protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
return Arrays.asList(
new MainReactPackage(),
new ReactMaterialKitPackage()
);
}
Finally, you're good to go, feel free to require react-native-material-kit in your JS files.
Have fun! :metal:
Apply Material Design Buttons with a few lines of code using predefined builders, which comply with the Material Design Lite default theme.
// colored button with default theme (configurable)
const ColoredRaisedButton = MKButton.coloredButton()
.withText('BUTTON')
.withOnPress(() => {
console.log("Hi, it's a colored button!");
})
.build();
...
<ColoredRaisedButton />
And you can definitely build customized buttons from scratch.
with builder:
const CustomButton = new MKButton.Builder()
.withBackgroundColor(MKColor.Teal)
.withShadowRadius(2)
.withShadowOffset({width:0, height:2})
.withShadowOpacity(.7)
.withShadowColor('black')
.withOnPress(() => {
console.log('hi, raised button!');
})
.withTextStyle({
color: 'white',
fontWeight: 'bold',
})
.withText('RAISED BUTTON')
.build();
...
<CustomButton />
the jsx equivalent:
<MKButton
backgroundColor={MKColor.Teal}
shadowRadius={2}
shadowOffset={{width:0, height:2}}
shadowOpacity={.7}
shadowColor="black"
onPress={() => {
console.log('hi, raised button!');
}}
>
<Text pointerEvents="none"
style={{color: 'white', fontWeight: 'bold',}}>
RAISED BUTTON
</Text>
</MKButton>

Why builders? See the ‘Builder vs. configuration object’ discussion.
Apply Card Style with only few styles !.
import {
getTheme,
...
} from 'react-native-material-kit';
const theme = getTheme();
<View style={theme.cardStyle}>
<Image source={{uri : base64Icon}} style={theme.cardImageStyle} />
<Text style={theme.cardTitleStyle}>Welcome</Text>
<Text style={theme.cardContentStyle}>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Mauris sagittis pellentesque lacus eleifend lacinia...
</Text>
<View style={theme.cardMenuStyle}>{menu}</View>
<Text style={theme.cardActionStyle}>My Action</Text>
</View>
MDL Loading components.
<mdl.Progress
style={styles.progress}
progress={0.2}
/>

MDL Slider components.

<mdl.Slider style={styles.slider} />
…
const SliderWithValue = mdl.Slider.slider()
.withStyle(styles.slider)
.withMin(10)
.withMax(100)
.build();
…
<SliderWithValue
ref=“sliderWithValue”
onChange={(curValue) => this.setState({curValue})}
/>

<mdl.RangeSlider style={styles.slider} />
…
const SliderWithRange = mdl.RangeSlider.slider()
.withStyle(styles.slider)
.withMin(10)
.withMax(100)
.withMinValue(30)
.withMaxValue(50)
.build();
…
<SliderWithRange
ref=“sliderWithRange”
onChange={(curValue) => this.setState({
min: curValue.min,
max: curValue.max,
})
}
onConfirm={(curValue) => {
console.log("Slider drag ended");
console.log(curValue);
}}
/>

Built-in textfields, which comply with Material Design Lite.
// textfield with default theme (configurable)
const Textfield = MKTextField.textfield()
.withPlaceholder('Text...')
.withStyle(styles.textfield)
.build();
...
<Textfield />
Customizing textfields through builder:
const CustomTextfield = mdl.Textfield.textfield()
.withPlaceholder(‘Text…’)
.withStyle(styles.textfield)
.withTintColor(MKColor.Lime)
.withTextInputStyle({color: MKColor.Orange})
.build();
...
<CustomTextfield />
the jsx equivalent:
<MKTextField
tintColor={MKColor.Lime}
textInputStyle={{color: MKColor.Orange}}
placeholder=“Text…”
style={styles.textfield}
/>
👉 props reference and example code
<MKIconToggle
checked={true}
onCheckedChange={this._onIconChecked}
onPress={this._onIconClicked}
>
<Text
pointerEvents="none"
style={styles.toggleTextOff}>Off</Text>
<Text state_checked={true}
pointerEvents="none"
style={[styles.toggleText, styles.toggleTextOn]}>On</Text>
</MKIconToggle>
The two Text tags here, similar to State List in Android development, which can give you the flexibility to decide what content and how it is shown for each state of the toggle. For example, you can use react-native-icons here, or any other sophisticated contents.
👉 props reference and example code
<mdl.Switch
style={styles.appleSwitch}
onColor="rgba(255,152,0,.3)"
thumbOnColor={MKColor.Orange}
rippleColor="rgba(255,152,0,.2)"
onPress={() => console.log('orange switch pressed')}
onCheckedChange={(e) => console.log('orange switch checked', e)}
/>
