How to open half modal in react native?


I am creating a react native app and I used a react-native modal component to open a modal and I am able to open a full modal with the following code. I have mentioned my code samples below. Now I wanted to open a half modal.

This is what I tried.

import React from 'react';
import {
  StyleSheet,
  Text,
  View,
  ScrollView,
  TouchableOpacity,
  TextInput,
  Image,
  Modal,
} from 'react-native';

export default class Test extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      modalVisible: false,
    };
  }
  setModalVisible(visible) {
    this.setState({modalVisible: visible});
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <View style={styles.container}>
        <View style={styles.header}>
          <Text style={styles.headerText}>Test Half Modal</Text>
          <TouchableOpacity
            style={styles.addButton}
            onPress={() => {
              this.setModalVisible(true);
            }}>
            <Text style={styles.addButtonText}>Open</Text>
          </TouchableOpacity>
        </View>

        <Modal
          animationType="slide"
          transparent={false}
          visible={this.state.modalVisible}
          onRequestClose={() => {
            // this.closeButtonFunction()
          }}>
          <View style={styles.footer}>
            <Text style={styles.headerText}>This is Half Modal</Text>
          </View>
          <TouchableOpacity
            style={styles.addButton}
            onPress={() => {
              this.setModalVisible(!this.state.modalVisible);
            }}>
            <Text style={styles.addButtonText}>Close</Text>
          </TouchableOpacity>
        </Modal>
      </View>
    );
  }
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    backgroundColor: '#98B3B7',
    justifyContent: 'center',
  },
  header: {
    flexDirection: 'row',
    alignItems: 'center',
  },
  headerText: {
    color: 'black',
    fontSize: 18,
    padding: 26,
  },
  noteHeader: {
    backgroundColor: '#42f5aa',
    alignItems: 'center',
    justifyContent: 'center',
    borderTopLeftRadius: 50,
    borderTopRightRadius: 50,
  },
  footer: {
    flex: 1,
    backgroundColor: '#ddd',
    bottom: 0,
    left: 0,
    right: 0,
    zIndex: 10,
  },
  textInput: {
    alignSelf: 'stretch',
    color: 'black',
    padding: 20,
    backgroundColor: '#ddd',
    borderTopWidth: 2,
    borderTopColor: '#ddd',
  },
  },
  addButton: {
    position: 'absolute',
    zIndex: 11,
    right: 20,
    bottom: 90,
    backgroundColor: '#98B3B7',
    width: 70,
    height: 70,
    borderRadius: 35,
    alignItems: 'center',
    justifyContent: 'center',
    elevation: 8,
  },
  addButtonText: {
    color: '#fff',
    fontSize: 18,
  },
});

Using the above code I am able to open a full modal. How can I open half modal using some styles or something else?


Solution

  • You will need a wrapper view for your Modal contents, and as you are planning to display only half the screen you will have to make it transparent. Updating the modal code like below. I put background color as blue you can change it as you want. The height is set to 50% as you wanted half and the marginTop is set to auto which will move it to the bottom half of the screen.

    <Modal
      animationType="slide"
      transparent={true}
      visible={this.state.modalVisible}
      onRequestClose={() => {
        // this.closeButtonFunction()
      }}>
      <View
        style={{
          height: '50%',
          marginTop: 'auto',
          backgroundColor:'blue'
        }}>
        <View style={styles.footer}>
          <Text style={styles.headerText}>This is Half Modal</Text>
        </View>
        <TouchableOpacity
          style={styles.addButton}
          onPress={() => {
            this.setModalVisible(!this.state.modalVisible);
          }}>
          <Text style={styles.addButtonText}>Close</Text>
        </TouchableOpacity>
      </View>
    </Modal>
