react-native-gif

Performant component for GIFs (significant performance increase and better memory usage on iOS). Caching is a available for iOS.

v3.x.x

Updating from v2.x.x to v3.x.x might have some breaking changes due to migration from FLAnimatedImage to SDWebImage. Please create a issue or pull request if you notice any bugs.

Props

style

ImageResizeMode is an Enum for different image resizing modes, set via the resizeMode style property on Image components. For now the values are contain and cover. Please make an issue if any other (stretch, center, repeat) is needed.

resizeMode

Determines how to resize the image when the frame doesn't match the raw image dimensions. Defaults to cover as a standard react-native's Image component.

• cover: Scale the image uniformly (maintain the image's aspect ratio) so that both dimensions (width and height) of the image will be equal to or larger than the corresponding dimension of the view (minus padding).
• contain: Scale the image uniformly (maintain the image's aspect ratio) so that both dimensions (width and height) of the image will be equal to or less than the corresponding dimension of the view (minus padding).

Please make a Github issue if any other (stretch, center, repeat) is needed.

source

The image source (either a remote URL or a local file resource).

paused

Determines if GIF should be paused

quality

Determines quality (pixel size) of the GIF. Value between 0 - 1, where 1 is the best quality.

useCPU

Defaults to false. Which automatically adjust decoding between memory and CPU, by calculating current memory usage. If set to true, means without any buffer cache each of frames will be decoded and then be freed after rendering. Lowest memory usage, highest CPU usage.
