## Why create this?



I've found existing swiping components to be buggy and not working fully on both platforms.



## Features



* Autoplay

* Horizontal swiping

* Works when orientation changes

* Cross-platform

* Works with any view size

* Custom styling

* Pressable circle buttons

* API



## Getting started



Install the npm package.



```

npm i react-native-swipe-a-lot --save

```



Import the SwipeALot component wherever you'd like to use it.



```

import SwipeALot from 'react-native-swipe-a-lot'

```



In your render method, simply use it as a wrapper around Views.



```

class Root extends React.Component {

  render() {

    return (

      

        

          This is slide 1

        

        

          This is slide 2

          

      

    )

  }

}

```



## Running the demo



First run `npm install`



Then simply run `react-native run-android` or `react-native run-ios`



## Configuration



You can pass these props to the component:



`autoplay` makes the component automatically swipe to other pages. It is disabled by default. Pass an object as a prop here to configure it:



```

{

  enabled: false,

  disableOnSwipe: false,

  delayBetweenAutoSwipes: 5000

}

```



`onSetActivePage` is a function that returns current index of the page when user swipes or clicks on a circle

```

 { console.log('Current Page is: ', index); }}

>



```



`wrapperStyle` defines how the container that contains the swiping views looks. By default no styling is applied.



`circleDefaultStyle` defines how the inactive circles on your swiper component look. You can pass an object here with style properties that you wish to override.



Default style:

```

{

  width: PixelRatio.getPixelSizeForLayoutSize(6),

  height: PixelRatio.getPixelSizeForLayoutSize(6),

  margin: 10,

  backgroundColor: 'rgb(158, 158, 158)',

  borderRadius: PixelRatio.getPixelSizeForLayoutSize(3)

}

```



`circleActiveStyle` defines how the active circle on your swiper component looks. You can pass an object here with style properties that you wish to override.



Default style:

```

{

  backgroundColor: 'rgb(245, 245, 245)',

}

```



## API
