Notes on React Navigation v5
Options that you want to apply to all screen in a navigator are passed as screenOptions
to the Navigator
import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native'
import { createStackNavigator } from '@react-navigation/stack'
const Stack = createStackNavigator()
function HomeScreen({ navigation }) {
return (
<View>
<Text>This is home screen</Text>
<Button onPress={() => navigation.navigate('Other')} title="Go to other screen" />
</View>
)
}
function OtherScreen() {
return (
<View>
<Text>This is another screen. Tap the Back icon to go back to Home</Text>
</View>
)
}
const App = () => {
return (
<NavigationContainer>
<Stack.Navigator initialRouteName="Home">
<Stack.Screen name="Home" component={HomeScreen} />
<Stack.Screen name="Other" component={OtherScreen} />
</Stack.Navigator>
</NavigationContainer>
)
}
export default App
Moving to another screen
Pass the navigation
param to the component, and use navigation.navigate('screenName')
to navigate to that screen. screenName
is whatever value you gave for name
when setting up the screen in a navigator.
function HomeScreen({ navigation }) {
return (
<View>
<Text>This is home screen</Text>
<Button onPress={() => navigation.navigate('Other')} title="Go to other screen" />
</View>
)
}
