# react-native-dialogs React Native wrappers for https://github.com/afollestad/material-dialogs Installation ------------ Install the npm package 'react-native-dialogs'. Inside your React Native project, run ([example](https://github.com/aakashns/react-native-dialogs-example/commit/e6b83bf3d2238cf7e4ec3688519f38b2544ccad5)): ```bash npm install --save react-native-dialogs ``` In `android/settings.gradle`, remove the line `include ':app'` and add the following lines ([example](https://github.com/aakashns/react-native-dialogs-example/commit/32b4159725601e0ea17e140f0a9b62161d567804)): ``` include ':app', ':react-native-dialogs' project(':react-native-dialogs').projectDir = file('../node_modules/react-native-dialogs/android') ``` **NOTE** : If you have included other libraries in your project, the `include` line will contain the other dependencies too. In `android/app/build.gradle`, add a dependency to `':react-native-dialogs'` and URL of the Jitpack maven repository (to download the library https://github.com/afollestad/material-dialogs) : ``` repositories { maven { url "https://jitpack.io" } } dependencies { // after other dependencies compile project(':react-native-dialogs') } ``` The changes should look like [this](https://github.com/aakashns/react-native-dialogs-example/commit/b58086d8fb9ece99f0e678dd8bf0e689a856bd43). Next, you need to change the `MainActivity` of your app to extends `FragmentActivity` instead of `Activity` (otherwise dialogs will not be rendered), and register `ReactNativeDialogsPackage` : ```java import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity; import com.aakashns.reactnativedialogs.ReactNativeDialogsPackage; public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity implements DefaultHardwareBackBtnHandler { //... mReactInstanceManager = ReactInstanceManager.builder() //... .addPackage(new MainReactPackage()) .addPackage(new ReactNativeDialogsPackage(this)) // <- ADD THIS LINE! //... .build(); ``` See [this changelog](https://github.com/aakashns/react-native-dialogs-example/commit/52cac27756963bcd2f4fdcd039e1a78028bb0abd) for reference. Now you're finally ready to start using module in your React Native application. See [this changelog](https://github.com/aakashns/react-native-dialogs-example/commit/2d8e02c22275479d2fbbb89f99dcb846834bec9d) for an example that uses `DialogAndroid`. Usage ----- ```javascript var DialogAndroid = require('react-native-dialogs'); var options = { title: 'Hello, World!', content: 'I\'m just simple Dialog', positiveText: 'OK', negativeText: 'Cancel' }; var showDialog = function () { var dialog = new DialogAndroid(); dialog.set(options); dialog.show(); } ``` Creation of a dialog works in 3 steps : 1. Create a new dialog using `new DialogAndroid()`. 2. Set some options using `dialog.set(options)`. `set` can be called multiple times, and options from multiple calls will be merged. 3. Show the dialog using `dialog.show()`. This library is a thin wrapper over [afollestad/material-dialogs](https://github.com/afollestad/material-dialogs), which provides builders for showing Material Design dialogs in Android apps. The options provided to `set` map more or less directly to the methods provided in the original library. See [its documentation](https://github.com/afollestad/material-dialogs#basic-dialog) for reference. The following options are currently supported :
