Introduction –

Here we are going to discuss “How to implement image zoom functionality in react native“, in any mobile app this is a very basic functionality related to image.

Before click on image output example –

After click on image output example –

How to implement –

In above we show you 2 different images one is a listing of images and another is a after click on image you see the next image where you can able to zoom the image, which is a very common functionality of image.

For integrating image zoom we are going to use the third party npm package, so follow all the steps carefully.

Step 1 – Installing plugin

here we are going to install the npm plugin which is a – react-native-image-zoom-viewer

npm install react-native-image-zoom-viewer 

Step 2 – Import the plugin

here you need to import the plugin in which file you need to integrate this plugin.

import ImageViewer from 'react-native-image-zoom-viewer';

Step 3 – On image click

We need to apply the click operation on that image and redirect it to separate page which is photosZoom page.

export default class PhotosList extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    setI18nConfig(); // set initial config
    this.state = {
      photosList: [],
      imagesList: [],
    };
  }

//you need to integrate this 
 imageZoomFunctionality(image) {
    this.setState({imagesList: []});
    this.state.imagesList.push({url: image, height: 300, width: 350});
    Actions.PhotosZoom({photos: this.state.imagesList});
  }

photosItem(item, index) {
    return (
      <View
        style={{
          width: Device.width / 3.1,
          height: moderateScale(130),
       }}>
        <TouchableOpacity
          onPress={() => {
            this.imageZoomFunctionality(item.image);
          }}
          style={{
            width: '100%',
            backgroundColor: Colors.white,
          }}>
          <Image
            source={{uri: item.image}}
            resizeMode="stretch"
            style={{height: '100%', width: '100%'}}
          />
        </TouchableOpacity>
      </View>
    );
  }

 render() {
    const {photosList} = this.state;
    return (
      <SectionGrideView
         style={{backgroundColor: Colors.white}}
         showsVerticalScrollIndicator={false}
         data={item}
         numColumns={3}
         headerItem={item => this.photoHeaderItem(item)}
         renderItem={(item, index) => this.photosItem(item)}
        />
   )
 }
}

Step 4 – Image zoom code

In this page we integrate the zoom functionality.

import React, {Component} from 'react';
import {View, Text, StyleSheet} from 'react-native';
import {Colors} from '../themes';
import ImageViewer from 'react-native-image-zoom-viewer';

const TAG = 'PhotosZoom';
export default class PhotosZoom extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    setI18nConfig(); // set initial config
    this.state = {
      photosList: this.props.photos || [],
      visible: false,
    };
  }

render() {
    return (
        <View style={styles.container}>
          <ImageViewer
            imageUrls={this.props.photos}
            renderHeader={() => (
              <Text
                style={{borderWidth: 5, borderColor: 'white'}}>
                {this.props.photos.length}
              </Text>
            )}
            enableImageZoom={true}
          />
        </View>
    );
  }
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    backgroundColor: Colors.white,
  },
});

Step 5 – Start the npm server

npm serve

Step 6 – Run the code

react-native run-android
           or
react-native run-ios

So we completed the react native image zoom functionality in this tutorial which is “How to implement image zoom functionality in react native“.
