Reset to default 4As you are typing into the TextInput I see you are trying to change the state in the Form ponent. For this to happen correctly, setState needs to be called from the Form ponent. There are a couple functions currently being passed down through props:
(email) => this.setState({email})
// and
(password) => this.setState({password})
Looking at how those are being used in your UserInput ponent, whenever a new character is added to that text box, invoke the function above. so when this.setState() is called, it is saying UserInput.setState(). Since we want to change the state in Form we have to bind those functions to the parent ponent.
Instead of passing the functions directly to props, let's add some user methods:
export default class Form extends Component {
constructor(props) {}
_onChangeEmail(email) {
this.setState(Object.assign({}, state, { email })); // good practice for immutability
}
_onChangePassword(password) {
this.setState(Object.assign({}, state, { password })); // good practice for immutability
}
render() {}
}
Next, we need to bind these class methods to itself. That way no matter where these are called, this will always point to the Form ponent. This is most monly done in the constructor:
export default class Form extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props)
this.state = {}
// this is where we do the binding
this._onChangeEmail = this._onChangeEmail.bind(this)
this._onChangePassword = this._onChangePassword.bind(this)
}
_onChangeEmail(email) { /* code */}
_onChangePassword(password) { /* code */}
render() {}
}
Now pass these down to the UserInput ponent through props:
// Form.js
render() {
return (
<KeyboardAvoidingView>
<UserInput onChangeText={this._onChangeEmail} />
<UserInput onChangeText={this._onChangePassword} />
</KeyboardAvoidingView>
)
}
These methods should now be used when the user inputs text:
export default class UserInput extends Component {
render() {
return (
<View>
<Image />
<TextInput onChangeText = {this.props.onChangeText} />
</View>
);
}
}
Bonus: You also should add a property 'value' to the text input:
export default class UserInput extends Component {
render() {
return (
<View>
<Image />
<TextInput
onChangeText={this.props.onChangeText} />
value={this.props.textValue}
</View>
);
}
}
And make sure it is passed down from the parent ponent:
// Form.js
render() {
return (
<KeyboardAvoidingView>
<UserInput
onChangeText={this._onChangeEmail}
textValue={this.state.email}/>
<UserInput
onChangeText={this._onChangePassword}
textValue={this.state.password}/>
</KeyboardAvoidingView>
)
}
The value of TextInput may be retrieved through its _lastNativeTextproperty.
this.refs.myTextInput._lastNativeText
