import ParallaxScrollView from 'react-native-parallax-scroll-view';

// Inside of a component's render() method:
render() {
  return (
    <ParallaxScrollView
      backgroundColor="blue"
      contentBackgroundColor="pink"
      parallaxHeaderHeight={300}
      renderForeground={() => (
       <View style={{ height: 300, flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center' }}>
          <Text>Hello World!</Text>
        </View>
      )}>
      <View style={{ height: 500 }}>
        <Text>Scroll me</Text>
      </View>
    </ParallaxScrollView>
  );
}

Examples

Please refer to the ListView example provided to see how ParallaxScrollView can be used in combination with ListView.

The Android ListView example shows how you can use PullToRefreshViewAndroid with ParallaxScrollView.

There are more examples in the examples folder.

Usage (API)

All of the properties of ScrollView are supported. Please refer to the ScrollView documentation for more detail.

The ParallaxScrollView component adds a few additional properties, as described below.

Property	Type	Required	Description
backgroundColor	string	No	The color of the header background. Defaults to #000)
backgroundSpeed	number	No	The speed factor that the background moves at relative to the foreground. Defaults to 5.
contentBackgroundColor	string	No	This is the background color of the content. (Defaults to '#fff')
fadeOutForeground	bool	No	If true, the foreground will fade out as the user scrolls up. (Defaults to true)
onChangeHeaderVisibility	func	No	A callback function that is invoked when the parallax header is hidden or shown (as the user is scrolling). Function is called with a boolean value to indicate whether header is visible or not.
parallaxHeaderHeight	number	Yes	This is the height of parallax header.
renderBackground	func	No	This renders the background of the parallax header. Can be used to display cover images for example. (Defaults to an opaque background using backgroundColor)
renderFixedHeader	func	No	This renders an optional fixed header that will always be visible and fixed to the top of the view (and sticky header). You should set its height and width appropriately.
renderForeground	func	No	This renders the foreground header that moves at same speed as scroll content.
renderScrollComponent	func	No	A function with input props and outputs a ScrollView-like component in which the content is rendered. This is useful if you want to provide your own scrollable component. (See: https://github.com/exponentjs/react-native-scrollable-mixin) (By default, returns a ScrollView with the given props)
renderStickyHeader	func	No	This renders an optional sticky header that will stick to the top of view when parallax header scrolls up.
stickyHeaderHeight	number	If renderStickyHeader is used	If renderStickyHeader is set, then its height must be specified.

Changelog

0.17.4

• The background now fades out in the same manner as the foreground. Thanks @generalChaos for the PR.

0.17.3

• Allows renderFixedHeader to be used without providing renderStickyHeader and stickyHeaderHeight.

0.17.2

• Adds optional fadeOutForeground property that can be set to false to disable fading out of the foreground.

0.17.1

• Breaking: renderParallaxHeader is now renderForeground, and now scrolls with the same speed as scroll content.
• Refactored parallax header calculations to keep their scroll speeds consistent with user scroll speed.
• Parallax effect is now calculated using the backgroundSpeed prop.
