react-native-sketch-canvas
===================A React Native component for drawing by touching on both iOS and Android.
Features
-------------
* Support iOS and Android
* Stroke thickness and color are changable while drawing.
* Can undo strokes one by one.
* Can serialize path data to JSON. So it can sync other devices or someone else and continue to edit.
* Save drawing to a non-transparent image (png or jpg) or a transparent image (png only)
* Use vector concept. So sketches won't be cropped in different sizes of canvas.
* Support translucent colors and eraser.
* Support drawing on an image (Thanks to diego-caceres-galvan)
* High performance (See [below](#Performance). Thanks to jeanregisser)
* Can draw multiple canvases in the same screen.
* Can draw multiple multiline text on canvas.## Installation
-------------
Install from `npm` (only support RN >= 0.40)
```bash
npm install @terrylinla/react-native-sketch-canvas --save
```
Link native code
```bash
react-native link @terrylinla/react-native-sketch-canvas
```## Usage
-------------### ● Using without UI component (for customizing UI)
```javascript
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import {
AppRegistry,
StyleSheet,
View,
} from 'react-native';import { SketchCanvas } from '@terrylinla/react-native-sketch-canvas';
export default class example extends Component {
render() {
return (
);
}
}const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center', backgroundColor: '#F5FCFF',
},
});AppRegistry.registerComponent('example', () => example);
```#### Properties
-------------
| Prop | Type | Description |
| :------------ |:---------------:| :---------------|
| style | `object` | Styles to be applied on canvas component |
| strokeColor | `string` | Set the color of stroke, which can be #RRGGBB or #RRGGBBAA. If strokeColor is set to #00000000, it will automatically become an eraser.
NOTE: Once an eraser path is sent to Android, Android View will disable hardware acceleration automatically. It might reduce the canvas performance afterward. |
| strokeWidth | `number` | The thickness of stroke |
| onStrokeStart | `function` | An optional function which accpets 2 arguments `x` and `y`. Called when user's finger touches the canvas (starts to draw) |
| onStrokeChanged | `function` | An optional function which accpets 2 arguments `x` and `y`. Called when user's finger moves |
| onStrokeEnd | `function` | An optional function called when user's finger leaves the canvas (end drawing) |
| onSketchSaved | `function` | An optional function which accpets 2 arguments `success` and `path`. If `success` is true, image is saved successfully and the saved image path might be in second argument. In Android, image path will always be returned. In iOS, image is saved to camera roll or file system, path will be set to null or image location respectively. |
| onPathsChange | `function` | An optional function which accpets 1 argument `pathsCount`, which indicates the number of paths. Useful for UI controls. (Thanks to toblerpwn) |
| user | `string` | An identifier to identify who draws the path. Useful when undo between two users |
| touchEnabled | `bool` | If false, disable touching. Default is true. |
| localSourceImage | `object` | Require an object (see [below](#objects)) which consists of `filename`, `directory`(optional) and `mode`(optional). If set, the image will be loaded and display as a background in canvas. (Thanks to diego-caceres-galvan))([Here](#background-image) for details) |
| permissionDialogTitle | `string` | Android Only: Provide a Dialog Title for the Image Saving PermissionDialog. Defaults to empty string if not set |
| permissionDialogMessage | `string` | Android Only: Provide a Dialog Message for the Image Saving PermissionDialog. Defaults to empty string if not set |#### Methods
-------------
| Method | Description |
| :------------ |:---------------|
| clear() | Clear all the paths |
| undo() | Delete the latest path. Can undo multiple times. |
| addPath(path) | Add a path (see [below](#objects)) to canvas. |
| deletePath(id) | Delete a path with its `id` |
| save(imageType, transparent, folder, filename, includeImage, cropToImageSize) | Save image to camera roll or filesystem. If `localSourceImage` is set and a background image is loaded successfully, set `includeImage` to true to include background image and set `cropToImageSize` to true to crop output image to background image.
Android: Save image in `imageType` format with transparent background (if `transparent` sets to True) to **/sdcard/Pictures/`folder`/`filename`** (which is Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES).
iOS: Save image in `imageType` format with transparent background (if `transparent` sets to True) to camera roll or file system. If `folder` and `filename` are set, image will save to **temporary directory/`folder`/`filename`** (which is NSTemporaryDirectory()) |
| getPaths() | Get the paths that drawn on the canvas |
| getBase64(imageType, transparent, includeImage, cropToImageSize, callback) | Get the base64 of image and receive data in callback function, which called with 2 arguments. First one is error (null if no error) and second one is base64 result. |#### Constants

| Constant | Description |
| :------------ |:---------------|
| MAIN_BUNDLE | Android: empty string, ''
iOS: equivalent to [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath] |
| DOCUMENT | Android: empty string, ''
iOS: equivalent to NSDocumentDirectory |
| LIBRARY | Android: empty string, ''

-------------
To use an image as background, `localSourceImage`(see [below](#background-image)) reqires an object, which consists of `filename`, `directory`(optional) and `mode`(optional).
Note: Because native module cannot read the file in JS bundle, file path cannot be relative to JS side. For example, '../assets/image/image.png' will fail to load image.
### Typical Usage
* Load image from app native bundle
* Android:
1. Put your images into android/app/src/main/res/drawable.
2. Set `filename` to the name of image files with or without file extension.
3. Set `directory` to ''
* iOS:
1. Open Xcode and add images to project by right clicking `Add Files to [YOUR PROJECT NAME]`.
2. Set `filename` to the name of image files with file extension.
3. Set `directory` to MAIN_BUNDLE (e.g. RNSketchCanvas.MAIN_BUNDLE or SketchCanvas.MAIN_BUNDLE)
* Load image from camera
1. Retrive photo complete path (including file extension) after snapping.
2. Set `filename` to that path.
3. Set `directory` to ''### Content Mode
* AspectFill
* AspectFit (default)
* ScaleToFill

| :------------ |:---------------|:---------------|:---------------|
| filename | string | the fold name of the background image file (can be a full path) | |
| directory? | string | the directory of the background image file (usually used with [constants](#constants)) | '' |
| mode? | boolean | Specify how the background image resizes itself to fit or fill the canvas.
Options: `AspectFill`, `AspectFit`, `ScaleToFill` | `AspectFit` |### CanvasText object
```javascript

anchor: { x: 0, y: 1 },
position: { x: 100, y: 200 },
coordinate: 'Absolute',
alignment: 'Center',
lineHeightMultiple: 1.2
}
```
| Property | Type | Description | Default |
| :------------ |:---------------|:---------------|:---------------|
| text | string | the text to display (can be multiline by `\n`) | |
| font? | string | Android: You can set `font` to `fonts/[filename].ttf` to load font in `android/app/src/main/assets/fonts/` in your Android project
iOS: Set `font` that included with iOS | |
| fontSize? | number | font size | 12 |
| fontColor? | string | text color | black |
| overlay? | string | Set to `TextOnSketch` to overlay drawing with text, otherwise the text will be overlaid with drawing.
Options: `TextOnSketch`, `SketchOnText` | SketchOnText |
| anchor? | object | Set the origin point of the image. (0, 0) to (1, 1). (0, 0) and (1, 1) indicate the top-left and bottom-right point of the image respectively. | { x: 0, y: 0 } |
| position | object | Set the position of the image on canvas. If `coordinate` is `Ratio`, (0, 0) and (1, 1) indicate the top-left and bottom-right point of the canvas respectively. | { x: 0, y: 0 } |
| coordinate? | string | Set to `Absolute` and `Ratio` to treat `position` as absolute position (in point) and proportion respectively.
Options: `Absolute`, `Ratio` | Absolute |
| alignment? | string | Specify how the text aligns inside container. Only work when `text` is multiline text. | Left |
| lineHeightMultiple? | number | Multiply line height by this factor. Only work when `text` is multiline text. | 1.0 |## Performance
-------------
1. For non-transparent path, both Android and iOS performances are good. Because when drawing non-transparent path, only last segment is drawn on canvas, no matter how long the path is, CPU usage is stable at about 20% and 15% in Android and iOS respectively.
2. For transparent path, CPU usage stays at around 25% in Android, however, in iOS, CPU usage grows to 100% :(.
