# Nitro Haptics
### Low Latency Haptic Feedback with Worklet Support for React Native

[](https://github.com/oblador/react-native-nitro-haptics/actions/workflows/ci.yml) [](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-nitro-haptics) [](https://github.com/oblador/react-native-nitro-haptics/blob/master/LICENSE)
## Features
- **Low latency** for timing interaction and feedback perfectly, thanks to extremely fast [Nitro Modules](https://nitro.margelo.com)
- **Worklet support** to ensure instant feedback even if JS thread is blocked
- Built for **New Architecture** from the start
- **Drop-in replacement** for `expo-haptics` for ease of adoption
## Installation
You need to install both Nitro Modules core package and Nitro Haptics:
```sh
npm install react-native-nitro-modules react-native-nitro-haptics
# Don't forget to update CocoaPods and recompile app:
cd ios && pod install
```
## Usage
See [Apple Human Interface Guidelines](https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/playing-haptics) for best practices and references.
```tsx
import { Haptics } from 'react-native-nitro-haptics';
Haptics.impact('medium')} />;
```
### Reanimated Worklets
Assuming your app has been correctly configured with Reanimated, Nitro Haptics can be called directly from the UI thread by using [Nitro Modules Boxing](https://nitro.margelo.com/docs/worklets):
```tsx
import { Gesture, GestureDetector } from 'react-native-gesture-handler';
import { Haptics } from 'react-native-nitro-haptics';
import { NitroModules } from 'react-native-nitro-modules';
const boxed = NitroModules.box(Haptics);
{
'worklet';
boxed.unbox().impact('medium');
})}
/>;
```
## API
### `Haptics.impact(style: 'light' | 'medium' | 'heavy' | 'soft' | 'rigid')`
Impact haptics provide a physical metaphor you can use to complement a visual experience. For example, people might feel a tap when a view snaps into place or a thud when two heavy objects collide.
`style` argument maps to [`UIImpactFeedbackGenerator.FeedbackStyle`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiimpactfeedbackgenerator/feedbackstyle), see [HIG for visualization](https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/playing-haptics#Impact).
### `Haptics.notification(type: 'success' | 'warning' | 'error')`
Notification haptics provide feedback about the outcome of a task or action, such as depositing a check or unlocking a vehicle.
`type` argument maps to [`UINotificationFeedbackGenerator.FeedbackType`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uinotificationfeedbackgenerator/feedbacktype), see [HIG for visualization](https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/playing-haptics#Notification).
### `Haptics.selection()`
Selection haptics provide feedback while the values of a UI element are changing, see [HIG for visualization](https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/playing-haptics#Selection).
### `Haptics.performAndroidHaptics(type: 'confirm' | 'reject' | 'gesture-start' | 'gesture-end' | 'toggle-on' | 'toggle-off' | 'clock-tick' | 'context-click' | 'drag-start' | 'keyboard-tap' | 'keyboard-press' | 'keyboard-release' | 'long-press' | 'virtual-key' | 'virtual-key-release' | 'no-haptics' | 'segment-tick' | 'segment-frequent-tick' | 'text-handle-move')`
Android equivalent to provide haptic feedback for some built in actions, such as long presses, but you may wish to provide feedback for your own widget, see [`HapticFeedbackConstants`](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/HapticFeedbackConstants.html) for uses.
