A component which enables customization of the keyboard input accessory view on iOS. The input accessory view is displayed above the keyboard whenever a TextInput has focus. This component can be used to create custom toolbars.

To use this component wrap your custom toolbar with the InputAccessoryView component, and set a nativeID. Then, pass that nativeID as the inputAccessoryViewID of whatever TextInput you desire. A basic example:

import React, { Component } from 'react'; import { View, ScrollView, TextInput, InputAccessoryView, Button } from 'react-native'; export default class UselessTextInput extends Component { constructor(props) { super(props); this.state = {text: 'Placeholder Text'}; } render() { const inputAccessoryViewID = "uniqueID"; return ( <View> <ScrollView keyboardDismissMode="interactive"> <TextInput style={{ padding: 10, paddingTop: 50, }} inputAccessoryViewID={inputAccessoryViewID} onChangeText={text => this.setState({text})} value={this.state.text} /> </ScrollView> <InputAccessoryView nativeID={inputAccessoryViewID}> <Button onPress={() => this.setState({text: 'Placeholder Text'})} title="Reset Text" /> </InputAccessoryView> </View> ); } }

This component can also be used to create sticky text inputs (text inputs which are anchored to the top of the keyboard). To do this, wrap a TextInput with the InputAccessoryView component, and don't set a nativeID. For an example, look at InputAccessoryViewExample.js.
