Hello this is an example of the ParsedText, links like http://www.google.com or http://www.facebook.com are clickable and phone number 444-555-6666 can call too.
But you can also do more with this package, for example Bob will change style and David too. [email protected]
And the magic number is 42!
#react #react-native
</ParsedText>
</View>
);
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
backgroundColor: '#F5FCFF',
},
url: {
color: 'red',
textDecorationLine: 'underline',
},
email: {
textDecorationLine: 'underline',
},
text: {
color: 'black',
fontSize: 15,
},
phone: {
color: 'blue',
textDecorationLine: 'underline',
},
name: {
color: 'red',
},
username: {
color: 'green',
fontWeight: 'bold'
},
magicNumber: {
fontSize: 42,
color: 'pink',
},
hashTag: {
fontStyle: 'italic',
},
});
You can use <Text>
like a container for your other text components.
This is example:
...
<Text>
<Text>This is a sentence</Text>
<Text style={{fontWeight: "bold"}}> with</Text>
<Text> one word in bold</Text>
</Text>
...
Here is an example.
For a more web-like feel:
const B = (props) => <Text style={{fontWeight: 'bold'}}>{props.children}</Text>
<Text>I am in <B>bold</B> yo.</Text>
