React Native styles that respond to device orientation change

***

### How-to

Installation:
```
npm i --save react-native-responsive-styles
```

This library depends on [walmartlabs/react-native-orientation-listener](https://github.com/walmartlabs/react-native-orientation-listener), which contains native dependencies for iOS and Android. Link them with:
```
react-native link react-native-orientation-listener
```

You can now import `StyleSheet` and any React components from `react-native-responsive-styles` instead of `react-native`:
```js
import {
View,
Image,
ScrollView,
StyleSheet
} from 'react-native-responsive-styles';
```

You can then define custom style properties for `landscape` and `portrait` orientations:
```js
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
// define separate styles for portrait and landscape
portrait: {
flexDirection: 'column'
},
landscape: {
flexDirection: 'row'
}
},
mainContent: {
flex: 8,
// override a default value when orientation is landscape
landscape: {
flex: 1
}
},
secondaryContent: {
flex: 1,
// override a default value when orientation is portrait
portrait: {
backgroundColor: '#ccc'
}
}
});
```

Usage of `StyleSheet.create` is not required. Plain style objects will work as well, as long as you use the React components from this package.

That's it!

### Advanced features

#### Animate transitions

You can apply a [LayoutAnimation](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/layoutanimation.html) to orientation changes. Valid animation values are `spring`, `linear` and `easeInEaseOut`.
```js
StyleSheet.configureLayoutAnimation('spring');
```

The default behaviour is no animation, but configuring one is recommended to avoid visual glitches when rearranging elements.

#### Make your custom components responsive

To add support for orientation-specific styles to your own components or other third-party components, wrap them in a higher-order component with `StyleSheet.makeResponsive`:
```js
import React from 'react';
import StyleSheet from 'react-native-responsive-styles';

class CustomComponent extends React.Component({
//...
});

export default StyleSheet.makeResponsive(CustomComponent);
```

In most cases this should not be required. You can simply nest your component in a responsive `View`.

#### Hiding elements

A common use case is to hide an element entirely in one orientation. You can use `StyleSheet.hidden` for that:
```js
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
landscapeOnly: {
flex: 1,
portrait: StyleSheet.hidden
}
})
```
