### Installation
1. Install package via npm:
```
npm install react-native-blur
```
2. Link your native dependencies:
```
react-native link react-native-blur
```
3. (Android only) Add the following to `android/app/build.gradle`
```
android {
// make sure to use 23.0.3 or greater
buildToolsVersion '23.0.3'
// ...
defaultConfig {
// Add these lines below the existing config
renderscriptTargetApi 23
renderscriptSupportModeEnabled true
}
}
```
4. (Android only, optional)
If you've defined _[project-wide properties](https://developer.android.com/studio/build/gradle-tips.html)_ (**recommended**) in your root `build.gradle`, this library will detect the presence of the following properties:
```groovy
buildscript {...}
allprojects {...}
/**
+ Project-wide Gradle configuration properties
*/
ext {
compileSdkVersion = 27
targetSdkVersion = 27
buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3"
}
```
5. Include the library in your code:
```javascript
import { BlurView, VibrancyView } from "react-native-blur";
```
6. Compile and have fun!
### BlurView
**Properties:**
- `blurType` (String)
- `xlight` - extra light blur type
- `light` - light blur type
- `dark` - dark blur type
- `extraDark` - extra dark blur type (tvOS only)
- `regular` - regular blur type (iOS 10+ and tvOS only)
- `prominent` - prominent blur type (iOS 10+ and tvOS only)
- `blurAmount` (Default: 10, Number)
- `0-100` - Adjusts blur intensity
> Note: The maximum `blurAmount` on Android is 32, so higher values will be clamped to 32.
> Complete usage example that works on iOS and Android:
```javascript
import React, { Component } from "react";
import { View, Image, Text, findNodeHandle, StyleSheet } from "react-native";
import { BlurView } from "react-native-blur";
export default class Menu extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = { viewRef: null };
}
imageLoaded() {
this.setState({ viewRef: findNodeHandle(this.backgroundImage) });
}
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<Text>Hi, I am some unblurred text</Text>
<BlurView
style={styles.absolute}
viewRef={this.state.viewRef}
blurType="light"
blurAmount={10}
/>
<Image
ref={img => {
this.backgroundImage = img;
}}
source={{ uri }}
style={styles.absolute}
onLoadEnd={this.imageLoaded.bind(this)}
/>
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
justifyContent: "center",
alignItems: "center"
},
absolute: {
position: "absolute",
top: 0,
left: 0,
bottom: 0,
right: 0
}
});
```
In this example, the `Image` component will be blurred, because the `BlurView` in positioned on top. But the `Text` will stay unblurred.
Note that `viewRef` is only required if you need to support Android. See the [Android section](#android) for more details.
### VibrancyView
**Uses the same properties as `BlurView` (`blurType` and `blurAmount`).**
> The vibrancy effect lets the content underneath a blurred view show through more vibrantly
> (Note: `VibrancyView` is only supported on iOS. Also note that the `VibrancyView` must contain nested views.)
```javascript
import { VibrancyView } from "react-native-blur";
export default class Menu extends Component {
render() {
return (
<Image source={{ uri }} style={styles.absolute}>
<VibrancyView blurType="light" style={styles.flex}>
<Text>Hi, I am some vibrant text.</Text>
</VibrancyView>
</Image>
);
}
}
```
### Android
Android uses the [500px-android-blur](https://github.com/500px/500px-android-blur) library, which works by blurring a referenced view. This means that you must wait until the view you want to blur is rendered. You then use `findNodeHandle` to get a reference to that view, and pass that reference to the `BlurView` as the `viewRef` prop. Take a look at [the BlurView example](#blurview) to see how it works.
The Android library introduces some limitations:
- `BlurView` cannot be a child of the view that is being blurred (this would cause an infinite loop)
- `BlurView` cannot contain any child components.
If you only need to support iOS, then you can safely ignore these limitations.
In addition to `blurType` and `blurAmount`, Android has some extra props that can be used to override the default behavior (or configure Android-specific behavior):
- `blurRadius` (Number - between 0 and 25) - Manually adjust the blur radius. (Default: matches iOS blurAmount)
- `downsampleFactor` (Number - between 0 and 25) - Scales down the image before blurring (Default: matches iOS blurAmount)
- `overlayColor` (Color) - Set a custom overlay color (Default color based on iOS blurType)
### Example React Native App
This project includes an example React Native app, which was used to make the GIF in this README.
You can run the apps by following these steps:
1. Clone the repository
```
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-blur.git
```
2. cd to `example`
```
cd react-native-blur/example
```
3. Install dependencies
```
npm install
```
4. Run the apps:
#### Run the iOS app
```
react-native run-ios
```
#### Run the tvOS app
type:
```
react-native run-ios
```
`react-native link` dont works properly with the tvOS target so we need to add the library manually.
First select your project in Xcode.
<img src="./docs/tvOS-step-1.jpg" width="40%">
After that, select the tvOS target of your application and select « General » tab
<img src="./docs/tvOS-step-2.jpg" width="40%">
Scroll to « Linked Frameworks and Libraries » and tap on the + button
<img src="./docs/tvOS-step-3.jpg" width="40%">
Select RNBlur-tvOS
<img src="./docs/tvOS-step-4.jpg" width="40%">
Thats all, you can use react-native-blur for your tvOS application
#### Run the Android app
```
react-native run-android
```
### Troubleshooting
On older instances of react-native, BlurView package does not get added into the MainActivity/MainApplication classes where you would see `Warning: Native component for 'BlurView' does not exist` in RN YellowBox or console.
To rectify this, you can add the BlurViewPackage manually in MainActivity/MainApplication classes
```java
...
import com.cmcewen.blurview.BlurViewPackage;
...
public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication {
...
@Override
protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() {
return Arrays.<ReactPackage>asList(
new MainReactPackage(),
new BlurViewPackage()
);
}
...
}
```
