React Native Start Stop Device Vibration includes the way you can start and start the vibration on a button click. you can vibrate the device when you want to give feedback on any action performed by the user. For example, if you use any keyboard you can generate small vibration so that user come to know that some action was performed.
We will use Vibration component to vibrate the Device. It is one of the basic components provided by the React native.
Note: We will suggest running this example in the real device as you can’t feel the vibration in Virtual Devices.
Import Vibration
1 | import { Vibration} from 'react-native' |
Start the Vibration Using
1 | Vibration.vibrate(DURATION) |
Stop the Vibration Using
1 | Vibration.cancel() |
In this example, We will start and stop vibration on a button click. So let’s get started.
To Make a React Native App
Getting started with React Native will help you to know more about the way you can make a React Native project. We are going to use react-native init to make our React Native App.
Assuming that you have node installed, you can use npm to install the react-native-cli command line utility.
Open the terminal and go to the workspace and run
Run the following commands to create a new React Native projectnpm install -g react-native-cli
This will make a project structure with an index file named App.js in your project directory.react-native init ProjectName
Open App.js in any code editor and replace the code with the following code.
App.js
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 | /*This is an example of React Native Start Stop Device Vibration on Button Click*/ import React, { Component } from 'react'; //import react in our project import { StyleSheet, View, Vibration, Button } from 'react-native'; //import all the component we needed const DURATION = 1000; //Duration of the vibration export default class Mynewproject extends Component { StartVibrationFunction = () => { //Handle the start vibration button click Vibration.vibrate(DURATION); //To start the vibration for the defined Duration }; StopVibrationFunction = () => { //Handle the stop vibration button click Vibration.cancel(); //To STop the vibration }; render() { return ( <View style={styles.MainContainer}> <View style={{ margin: 10 }}> <Button title=" Start Vibration " onPress={this.StartVibrationFunction} /> </View> <View style={{ margin: 10 }}> <Button title=" Stop Vibration " onPress={this.StopVibrationFunction} /> </View> </View> ); } } const styles = StyleSheet.create({ MainContainer: { justifyContent: 'center', flex: 1, margin: 10, }, }); |
To Run the React Native App
Open the terminal again and jump into your project using.cd ProjectNamereact-native run-androidreact-native run-ios (macOS only).
That was the React Native Vibration component. If you have any doubt or you want to share something about the topic you can comment below or contact us here. The remaining components will be covered in the next article. Stay tuned!
Hope you liked it. 🙂
