Pinterest like listview made in React Native. It just behaves like the FlatList so it is easy to use.

yarn add @react-native-seoul/masonry-list

import MasonryList from '@react-native-seoul/masonry-list';

For deno user (Experimental)

import RNMasonryList from "https://deno.land/x/react_native_masonry_list/index.ts";

2-columns	3-columns	4-columns

You can use as many columns as you want. It is flexible!

See how to use it

How it is made

Current MasonryList extends ScrollView and can pass down its props. Indeed, this looks similar to FlatList to provide good developer experience. Look how this is used and compare to the FlatList.

The FlatList won't offer you to draw MansonryList because when you provide numColumns bigger than 1, the native view will switch to FlatList to GridView which will render its children with identical height only.

Our MasonryList view component is able to render all child views with all different sizes.

innerRef?: MutableRefObject<ScrollView | undefined>;
keyPrefix?: string;
loading?: boolean;
refreshing?: RefreshControlProps['refreshing'];
onRefresh?: RefreshControlProps['onRefresh'];
onEndReached?: () => void;
onEndReachedThreshold?: number;
style?: StyleProp<ScrollViewProps>;
data: T[];
renderItem: ({item: T, i: number}) => ReactElement;
LoadingView?: React.ComponentType<any> | React.ReactElement | null;
ListHeaderComponent?: React.ComponentType<any> | React.ReactElement | null;
ListEmptyComponent?: React.ComponentType<any> | React.ReactElement | null;
ListFooterComponent?: React.ComponentType<any> | React.ReactElement | null;
numColumns?: number;

innerRef - Expose ScrollView instance with ref, example usage: ref.current.scrollTo.

keyPrefix - Add prefix for keying child views. This is currently incremented by 1.

loading - Currently in loading status.

refreshing - Currently in refreshing status.

onRefresh - Callback when refresh has been triggered.

onEndReached - Callback when end is reached just like the onEndReached in FlatList

style - Style props for ScrollView which is the container view.

data - The array of the data for the view to render in renderItem

renderItem - Render custom view with the data passed down.

LoadingView - Custom loading view when the view is in loading status.

ListHeaderComponent - Header component

ListFooterComponent - Footer component

ListEmptyComponent - Component to render when the data is empty.

numColumns - Number of columns you want to render. Default to 2.

<MasonryList
  data={filteredItems}
  keyExtractor={(item, index): string => index.toString()}
  numColumns={2}
  showsVerticalScrollIndicator={false}
  renderItem={({item}) => <CardItem />}
  refreshing={isLoadingNext}
  onRefresh={() => refetch({first: ITEM_CNT})}
  onEndReachedThreshold={0.1}
  onEndReached={() => loadNext(ITEM_CNT)}
/>
