You can use the PanResponder
and Animated
APIs in react-native to create a draggable FlatList. Here's a code snippet that demonstrates how to do it:
import React, { useRef, useState } from 'react';
import { View, Text, FlatList, PanResponder, Animated } from 'react-native';
const DraggableFlatList = () => {
const panResponder = useRef(
PanResponder.create({
onMoveShouldSetPanResponder: (evt, gestureState) => {
// Only start moving the item if the user has moved the item more than
// 10 pixels in any direction
return (
Math.abs(gestureState.dx) > 10 || Math.abs(gestureState.dy) > 10
);
},
onPanResponderMove: (evt, gestureState) => {
// Update the item's position as the user moves it
itemRef.current.setValue({ x: gestureState.dx, y: gestureState.dy });
},
onPanResponderRelease: (evt, gestureState) => {
// The user has released the item, so reset the item's position
itemRef.current.setValue({ x: 0, y: 0 });
},
}),
).current;
const [items, setItems] = useState([
{ key: 'Item 1', backgroundColor: 'red' },
{ key: 'Item 2', backgroundColor: 'green' },
{ key: 'Item 3', backgroundColor: 'blue' },
]);
const itemRef = useRef(new Animated.ValueXY()).current;
const renderItem = ({ item }) => {
return (
<Animated.View
style={{
transform: [{ translateX: itemRef.x }, { translateY: itemRef.y }],
backgroundColor: item.backgroundColor,
}}
{...panResponder.panHandlers}
>
<Text>{item.key}</Text>
</Animated.View>
);
};
return (
<FlatList
data={items}
renderItem={renderItem}
/>
);
};
export default DraggableFlatList;
This code creates a FlatList that displays a list of items that the user can drag around the screen. When the user starts dragging an item, the onMoveShouldSetPanResponder
function is called, which starts the pan responder and allows the user to move the item. The onPanResponderMove
function is then called as the user moves the item, and updates the position of the item using the setValue
method of the Animated.ValueXY
object. When the user releases the item, the onPanResponderRelease
function is called, which resets the position of the item back to its original position.
