Nativescript Material Components

Build beautiful, usable products using Material Components for NativeScript.

Installation

Android

Ensure your Android Theme is inheriting from MaterialComponents. Inside App_resources/android/res/values/styles.xml replace all occurences of Theme.AppCompat with Theme.MaterialComponents You can see an example in the demo-vue app.

Production build

If you are using proguard on Android build you need ensure some resource from this plugin are not minified. You need to add tools:keep="@layout/ns_*" as explained here

Theming

Defining the theme and the default colors must be done a bit differently on iOS and Android

Android: You must set the colors through android Style
iOS: You must set the colors programmatically at your app startup

import { themer } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-core';
if (global.isIOS) {
    themer.setPrimaryColor('#bff937');
    themer.setAccentColor('#ff8a39');
    themer.setSecondaryColor('#a830d7');
}

Mixins

Through this component you can apply elevation or rippleColor to any View. To enable that feature your must "install" the mixins. Make sure you do it before creating any view.

import { installMixins } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-core';
installMixins();

This monorepo contains multiple packages:

activityindicator

NativeScript Material Circular progress indicator

Material Design's Circular progress indicator component for NativeScript.

Installation

For NativeScript 7.0+

tns plugin add @nativescript-community/ui-material-activityindicator

For NativeScript 6.x

tns plugin add nativescript-material-activityindicator

If using tns-core-modules

tns plugin add [email protected]

Be sure to run a new build after adding plugins to avoid any issues.

NativeScript + React

First, register the component before any of your React NativeScript app renders. A good place to put this code is in your entrypoint file (which may be called src/app.ts or similar), before the ReactNativeScript.start function is called. Here's how to install it:

import { registerTabNavigationBase } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-core/tab-navigation-base/react';
import { registerBottomNavigation } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottom-navigation/react';

registerTabNavigationBase();
registerBottomNavigation();

When available (I've not implemented it at the time of writing, but intend to in time), it would be best to use this component via the bottomNavigationNavigatorFactory() API exported by React NativeScript Navigation, as it makes nested navigation easy, but here's how to use it directly:

import * as React from 'react';

export function BottomNavigation() {
    const [selectedIndex, setSelectedIndex] = React.useState(0);

    return (
        <bottomNavigation
            selectedIndex={selectedIndex}
            onSelectedIndexChanged={(args) => {
                setSelectedIndex(args.newIndex);
            }}
            style={{ backgroundColor: 'orange' }}
        >
            {/* The bottomTab UI is created via tabStrip (the container) and tabStripItem (for each tab) */}
            <tabStrip nodeRole="tabStrip" style={{ backgroundColor: 'red' }}>
                <tabStripItem nodeRole="items">
                    <label nodeRole="label">Home</label>
                    <image nodeRole="image" src="font://&#xf015;" className="fas" />
                </tabStripItem>
                <tabStripItem nodeRole="items">
                    <label nodeRole="label">Account</label>
                    <image nodeRole="image" src="font://&#xf007;" className="fas" />
                </tabStripItem>
                <tabStripItem nodeRole="items">
                    <label nodeRole="label">Search</label>
                    <image nodeRole="image" src="font://&#xf00e;" className="fas" />
                </tabStripItem>
            </tabStrip>

            {/* The number of tabContentItem components should corespond to the number of TabStripItem components */}
            <tabContentItem nodeRole="items">
                <gridLayout style={{ backgroundColor: 'blue' }}>
                    <label style={{ color: 'white' }}>Home Page</label>
                </gridLayout>
            </tabContentItem>
            <tabContentItem nodeRole="items">
                <gridLayout style={{ backgroundColor: 'cyan' }}>
                    <label style={{ color: 'black' }}>Account Page</label>
                </gridLayout>
            </tabContentItem>
            <tabContentItem nodeRole="items">
                <gridLayout style={{ backgroundColor: 'magenta' }}>
                    <label style={{ color: 'black' }}>Search Page</label>
                </gridLayout>
            </tabContentItem>
        </bottomNavigation>
    );
}

Troubleshooting

If you see an error like this when writing e.g. <bottomNavigation> into your JSX:

Property 'bottomNavigation' does not exist on type 'JSX.IntrinsicElements'.ts(2339)

Make sure that you have:

Installed the react-nativescript npm module.
Installed the @types/react npm module, strictly with the exact version provided in the React NativeScript starter template.
Run the postinstall script that comes with the React NativeScript template – npm run postinstall – to patch @types/react.
Registered the component as described above (i.e. import and run the registerTabNavigationBase() and registerBottomNavigation() methods).
If using Visual Studio Code, option-click the import @nativescript-community/ui-material-bottom-navigation/react to jump to the file; opening the file will force it to load its provided typings.

Usage

Before start using the plugin you need to add the icons for Android & iOS in your App_Resources directory.

Plain NativeScript

You can set the tabs using the tabs property

<Page xmlns="http://schemas.nativescript.org/tns.xsd"
      xmlns:mdc="@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomnavigationbar"
      loaded="pageLoaded"
      class="page">

import { EventData } from '@nativescript/core/data/observable';
import { Page } from '@nativescript/core/ui/page';
import { BottomNavigationTab, TabSelectedEventData } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomnavigationbar';

// Event handler for Page 'loaded' event attached in main-page.xml
export function pageLoaded(args: EventData) {
    // Get the event sender
    let page = <Page>args.object;
    page.bindingContext = {
        tabs: [
            new BottomNavigationTab({ title: 'First', icon: 'res://ic_home' }),
            new BottomNavigationTab({
                title: 'Second',
                icon: 'res://ic_view_list',
                isSelectable: false
            }),
            new BottomNavigationTab({ title: 'Third', icon: 'res://ic_menu' })
        ]
    };
}

export function tabSelected(args: TabSelectedEventData) {
    console.log('tab selected ' + args.newIndex);
}

or you can add the tabs directly in your xml view

<Page xmlns="http://schemas.nativescript.org/tns.xsd"
      xmlns:mdc="@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomnavigationbar"
      loaded="pageLoaded"
      class="page">

          activeColor="green"
          inactiveColor="red"
          backgroundColor="black"
          tabSelected="tabSelected"
          row="1"
        >
          <mdc:BottomNavigationTab title="First" icon="res://ic_home" />
          <mdc:BottomNavigationTab title="Second" icon="res://ic_view_list" isSelectable="false" />
          <mdc:BottomNavigationTab title="Third" icon="res://ic_menu" />
        </mdc:BottomNavigationBar>
    </GridLayout>
</Page>

Angular

First you need to include the NativeScriptMaterialBottomNavigationBarModule in your app.module.ts

import { NativeScriptMaterialBottomNavigationBarModule} from "@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomnavigationbar/angular";

@NgModule({
    imports: [
        NativeScriptMaterialBottomNavigationBarModule
    ],
    ...
})

<GridLayout rows="*, auto">
    <StackLayout row="0">
        <label text="content"></label>
    </StackLayout>
    <BottomNavigationBar
        [tabs]="tabs"
        activeColor="red"
        inactiveColor="yellow"
        backgroundColor="black"
        (tabSelected)="onBottomNavigationTabSelected($event)"
        (tabPressed)="onBottomNavigationTabPressed($event)"
        row="1"
    ></BottomNavigationBar>
</GridLayout>

or you can declare the BottomNavigationTab in your html directly

<GridLayout rows="*, auto">
    <StackLayout row="0">
        <label text="content"></label>
    </StackLayout>
    <BottomNavigationBar
        activeColor="red"
        inactiveColor="yellow"
        backgroundColor="black"
        (tabSelected)="onBottomNavigationTabSelected($event)"
        (tabPressed)="onBottomNavigationTabPressed($event)"
        row="1"
    >
        <BottomNavigationTab title="First" icon="res://ic_home"></BottomNavigationTab>
        <BottomNavigationTab title="Second" icon="res://ic_view_list" [isSelectable]="false"></BottomNavigationTab>
        <BottomNavigationTab title="Third" icon="res://ic_menu"></BottomNavigationTab>
    </BottomNavigationBar>
</GridLayout>

Vue

If you want to use this plugin with Vue, do this in your app.js or main.js:

import BottomNavigationBar from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomnavigationbar/vue';

Vue.use(BottomNavigationBar);

This will install and register BottomNavigationBar and BottomNavigationTab components to your Vue instance and now you can use the plugin as follows:

<GridLayout rows="*, auto">
    <StackLayout row="0">
        <label text="content"></label>
    </StackLayout>
    <MDBottomNavigationBar activeColor="red" inactiveColor="yellow" backgroundColor="black" @tabSelected="onBottomNavigationTabSelected" row="1">
        <MDBottomNavigationTab title="First" icon="ic_home" />
        <MDBottomNavigationTab title="Second" icon="ic_view_list" isSelectable="false" />
        <MDBottomNavigationTab title="Third" icon="ic_menu" />
    </MDBottomNavigationBar>
</GridLayout>

You can find more information of how to use nativescript plugins with Vue Here!

CSS Styling

You can also use your css file to set or change the activeColor, inactiveColor & backgroundColor of the Bottom Navigation Bar.

.botom-nav {
    active-color: green;
    inactive-color: black;
    background-color: blue;
}

    canTouchBehind?: boolean //(Android only) allows to interact with the screen behind the sheet. For it to work properly need dismissOnBackgroundTap set to true.
}

Usage

Plain NativeScript

We need to do some wiring when your app starts, so open app.js and add this before creating any View/App/Frame:

JavaScript

var material = require("@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet");

material.install();

TypeScript

import { install } from "@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet";
install();

Uses the same kind of API as NativeScript Modals.

TS

const modalViewModulets = "ns-ui-category/modal-view/basics/modal-ts-view-page";
export function openBottomSheet(args) {
    const mainView: Button = <Button>args.object;
    const context = { username: "test_username", password: "test" };
    const fullscreen = true;
    mainView.showBottomSheet({
        view: modalViewModulets,
        context,
        closeCallback: (username, password) => {
            bottom-sheet
            alert(`Username: ${username} : Password: ${password}`);
        },
        fullscreen
    });
}

NativeScript + Vue 2

import Vue from 'nativescript-vue';
import BottomSheetPlugin from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet/vue';
import { install } from "@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet";
install();

Vue.use(BottomSheetPlugin);

Then you can show a Vue component:

import MyComponent from 'MyComponent.vue';

//inside another Vue component
const options: VueBottomSheetOptions = {
    // props to be passed to MyComponent
    props: {
        someProp: true,
        anotherProp: false
    },
    // listeners to be connected to MyComponent
    on: {
        someEvent: (value) => { console.log(value) }
    }
};
this.$showBottomSheet(MyComponent, options)

NativeScript + Vue 3

import { createApp } from 'nativescript-vue';
import { BottomSheetPlugin } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet/vue3';
import { install } from "@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet";
install();

const app = createApp(...);
app.use(BottomSheetPlugin);

Then you can show a Vue component:

import { useBottomSheet } from "@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet/vue3";
import MyComponent from 'MyComponent.vue';


const options: VueBottomSheetOptions = {
    // props to be passed to MyComponent
    props: {
        someProp: true,
        anotherProp: false
    },
    // listeners to be connected to MyComponent
    on: {
        someEvent: (value) => { console.log(value) }
    }
};

const { showBottomSheet, closeBottomSheet } = useBottomSheet()

showBottomSheet(MyComponent, options);
closeBottomSheet();

NativeScript + Angular

First you need to include the NativeScriptMaterialBottomSheetModule in your app.module.ts

import { NativeScriptMaterialBottomSheetModule} from "@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet/angular";

@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // This will call the install method and inject a global service called BottomSheetService
        NativeScriptMaterialBottomSheetModule.forRoot()
    ],
    ...
})

now you can show your custom BottomSheet using the BottomSheetService, this service follows the same implementation as the ModalService

ItemComponent

import { Component,  ViewContainerRef } from '@angular/core';
import { BottomSheetOptions, BottomSheetService } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet/angular';
import { ShareOptionsComponent } from './share-options.component';

@Component({
    selector: 'ns-item',
    templateUrl: './item.component.html',
    moduleId: module.id
})
export class ItemComponent {
    constructor(
        private bottomSheet: BottomSheetService, 
        private containerRef: ViewContainerRef,
    ) {}

    showOptions() {
        const options: BottomSheetOptions = {
            viewContainerRef: this.containerRef,
            context: ['Facebook', 'Google', 'Twitter']
        };

        this.bottomSheet.show(ShareOptionsComponent, options).subscribe(result => {
            console.log('Option selected:', result);
        });
    }
}

ShareOptionsComponent

<ListView
    [items]="options"
    (itemTap)="onTap($event)"
    separatorColor="white"
    class="list-group"
    height="200"
>
    <ng-template let-option="item">
        <Label
            class="list-group-item"
            [text]="option"
        ></Label>
    </ng-template>
</ListView>

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { BottomSheetParams } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-bottomsheet/angular';
import { ItemEventData } from '@nativescript/core/ui/list-view';

@Component({
    selector: 'ns-share-options',
    templateUrl: 'share-options.component.html'
})
export class ShareOptionsComponent implements OnInit {
    options: string[];
    
    // The BottomSheetService injects the BottomSheetParams to the component
    // so you can get the context and call the closeCallback method from the component displayed in your BottomSheet
    constructor(private params: BottomSheetParams) {}

    ngOnInit() {
        this.options = this.params.context;
    }

    onTap({ index }: ItemEventData) {
        this.params.closeCallback(this.options[index]);
    }
}

NativeScript + React

First, register the component before any of your React NativeScript app renders. A good place to put this code is in your entrypoint file (which may be called src/app.ts or similar), before the ReactNativeScript.start function is called. Here's how to install it:

import { registerTabNavigationBase } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-core/tab-navigation-base/react';
import { registerTabs } from '@nativescript-community/ui-material-tabs/react';

registerTabNavigationBase();
registerTabs();

Normally it would be best to use this component via the tabNavigatorFactory() API exported by React NativeScript Navigation, as it makes nested navigation easy, but here's how to use it directly:

import * as React from 'react';

export function Tabs() {
    const [selectedIndex, setSelectedIndex] = React.useState(0);

    return (
        <tabs
            selectedIndex={selectedIndex}
            onSelectedIndexChanged={(args) => {
                setSelectedIndex(args.newIndex);
            }}
            style={{ backgroundColor: 'orange' }}
        >
            {/* The bottomTab UI is created via tabStrip (the container) and tabStripItem (for each tab) */}
            <tabStrip nodeRole="tabStrip" style={{ backgroundColor: 'red' }}>
                <tabStripItem nodeRole="items">
                    <label nodeRole="label">Home</label>
                    <image nodeRole="image" src="font://&#xf015;" className="fas" />
                </tabStripItem>
                <tabStripItem nodeRole="items">
                    <label nodeRole="label">Account</label>
                    <image nodeRole="image" src="font://&#xf007;" className="fas" />
                </tabStripItem>
                <tabStripItem nodeRole="items">
                    <label nodeRole="label">Search</label>
                    <image nodeRole="image" src="font://&#xf00e;" className="fas" />
                </tabStripItem>
            </tabStrip>

            {/* The number of tabContentItem components should corespond to the number of TabStripItem components */}
            <tabContentItem nodeRole="items">
                <gridLayout style={{ backgroundColor: 'blue' }}>
                    <label style={{ color: 'white' }}>Home Page</label>
                </gridLayout>
            </tabContentItem>
            <tabContentItem nodeRole="items">
                <gridLayout style={{ backgroundColor: 'cyan' }}>
                    <label style={{ color: 'black' }}>Account Page</label>
                </gridLayout>
            </tabContentItem>
            <tabContentItem nodeRole="items">
                <gridLayout style={{ backgroundColor: 'magenta' }}>
                    <label style={{ color: 'black' }}>Search Page</label>
                </gridLayout>
            </tabContentItem>
        </tabs>
    );
}

Troubleshooting

If you see an error like this when writing e.g. <tabs> into your JSX:

Property 'tabs' does not exist on type 'JSX.IntrinsicElements'.ts(2339)

Make sure that you have:

Installed the react-nativescript npm module.
Installed the @types/react npm module, strictly with the exact version provided in the React NativeScript starter template.
Run the postinstall script that comes with the React NativeScript template – npm run postinstall – to patch @types/react.
Registered the component as described above (i.e. import and run the registerTabNavigationBase() and registerTabs() methods).
If using Visual Studio Code, option-click the import @nativescript-community/ui-material-tabs/react to jump to the file; opening the file will force it to load its provided typings.

FAQ

Question: How to use the latest version of this plugin for iOS?

Answer: To get latest versions of Material Components for iOS (> 112.1) you will need to change Pod min version to 10.0 To do that modify or create App_Resources/iOS/Podfile to add platform :ios, '10.0'. You can see an example in the demo-vue app.

Q: How to migrate to AndroidX with this plugin installed (Android only)?

A: For Material Components to work correctly with {N} 6 and AndroidX you need to update your android app theme. Inside App_resources/android/res/values/styles.xml replace all occurences of Theme.AppCompat with Theme.MaterialComponents You can see an example in the demo-vue app.

Q: What is the difference between Bottom Navigation and Bottom Navigation Bar component?

A: The Bottom Navigation Bar is a new component to draw a bottom navigation bar in material design. The Bottom Navigation component is a simple extract of the eponymous component from NativeScript, which probably will be removed in the future so this one can be used for easy transition.

Demos and Development

Repo Setup

The repo uses submodules. If you did not clone with --recursive then you need to call

git submodule update --init

The package manager used to install and link dependencies must be pnpm or yarn. npm wont work.

To develop and test: if you use yarn then run yarn if you use pnpm then run pnpm i

Interactive Menu:

To start the interactive menu, run npm start (or yarn start or pnpm start). This will list all of the commonly used scripts.

Build

npm run build.all

WARNING: it seems yarn build.all wont always work (not finding binaries in node_modules/.bin) which is why the doc explicitly uses npm run

Demos

npm run demo.[ng|react|svelte|vue].[ios|android]

npm run demo.svelte.ios # Example

Contributing

Update repo

You can update the repo files quite easily

First update the submodules

npm run update

Then commit the changes Then update common files

npm run sync

Then you can run yarn|pnpm, commit changed files if any

Update readme

npm run readme

Update doc

npm run doc

Publish

The publishing is completely handled by lerna (you can add -- --bump major to force a major release) Simply run

npm run publish

modifying submodules

The repo uses https:// for submodules which means you won't be able to push directly into the submodules. One easy solution is t modify ~/.gitconfig and add

[url "ssh://[email protected]/"]
	pushInsteadOf = https://github.com/
