How to add information pop-up for TextInput in React Native?
Yes -- you can position your info button over the TextInput
using absolute positioning and a zIndex, for example:
import * as React from 'react';
import { Text, View, StyleSheet, TextInput, TouchableOpacity } from 'react-native';
export default function App() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<View style={styles.textBoxParent}>
<TextInput style={styles.textBox} placeholder="Állat neve"/>
<TouchableOpacity style={styles.textBoxButton} onPress={() => {
//launch your modal
}}>
<Text>i</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</View>
);
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
justifyContent: 'center',
backgroundColor: '#ecf0f1',
padding: 8,
},
textBoxParent: {
justifyContent: 'center'
},
textBox:{
borderWidth:2,
borderColor: 'gray',
margin:15,
borderRadius:10,
padding: 10,
},
textBoxButton: {
position: 'absolute',
right: 20,
zIndex: 100,
width: 20,
height: 20,
borderWidth: 1,
borderRadius: 10,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center'
}
});

Heres a full example of what you want (https://snack.expo.dev/bjzBFuE4W). And below I explain the code.
Fist I made a Modal from react native that takes in modalVisible, setModalVisible, and appears when modalVisible is true.
import * as React from 'react';
import { Text, View, StyleSheet,TextInput ,TouchableOpacity,Modal} from 'react-native';
import { AntDesign } from '@expo/vector-icons';
import { MaterialIcons } from '@expo/vector-icons';
const ModalInfo = ({modalVisible, setModalVisible})=>{
return (
<Modal
animationType="slide"
transparent={true}
visible={modalVisible}
onRequestClose={() => {
setModalVisible(!modalVisible);
}}
>
<View style={{
flex: 1,
justifyContent: "center",
alignItems: "center",
}}>
<View
style={{
width:200,height:200,backgroundColor:"gray",borderWidth:2,
justifyContent:"center",alignItems:"center"
}}
>
<TouchableOpacity onPress={()=>{setModalVisible(false)}}>
<MaterialIcons name="cancel" size={24} color="black" />
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</View>
</Modal>
)
}
Next I made a View to wrap around the textInput so I can also add an svg of the info icon. And then set the outside view to have flexDirection:"row", so everything would be ordered the way you wan't.
const TextInputWithModal = ()=>{
const [modalVisible, setModalVisible] = React.useState(false);
const [AllatNev,setAllatNev]= React.useState("");
return (
<View style={styles.textInputContainer}>
<TextInput
placeholder="Állat neve"
value={AllatNev}
style={styles.textBox}
onChangeText={(text) => setAllatNev(text)}
/>
<TouchableOpacity onPress={()=>{setModalVisible(true)}}>
<AntDesign name="infocirlceo" size={24} color="black" />
</TouchableOpacity>
<ModalInfo modalVisible={modalVisible} setModalVisible={setModalVisible}/>
</View>
)
}
export default function App() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<TextInputWithModal/>
</View>
);
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems:"center",
},
textInputContainer:{
borderRadius:10,
padding: 10,
flexDirection:"row",
margin:15,
borderWidth:2,
},
textBox:{
fontFamily:'Quicksand-Medium',
marginRight:20,
},
});
